I've met quite a few females on multiplayer, is it such a big deal?

Really? That comes as a surprise to me, just look at all the classy guys on this thread-oh wait...

Out of the people who I have found with mics I would say 20% are female. Not that uncommon (have to say though the female gamers usually end up being better team players than most randoms.

As a female gamer I find girls that manipulate guys to carry them or give them kills to be an insult to my gender. Get by on your own skills or what's the point of playing?

Conversely, if you are a guy and give me special treatement like giving me kills and such because I'm a girl I don't consider that chivalry. I find it insulting beyond belief. What, do you think just because I have two X chromosomes that means I am inept at getting by on my own skills?

I've been playing video games since before I could walk back in the 80s. First thing my Dad taught me as a gamer when I could understand is you don't "play nice" and give pity wins and you don't let people "play nice" against you. You play hard or go home. Advice that's served me well throughout the years playing with guys. Heck got me married to a wonderful gamer guy that is more than thrilled that he doesn't have to worry about hurting my feelings because I'm such a fragile and delicate gamer flower.

Girls, play hard or don't play. Letting guys carry you and having "Underground" as your gamer type is just posing.

This thread is basically living proof as to why girls pass as guys in video games.

Some of you act like you've never even interacted with women...

Welcome to the world of Online Gaming.

In all seriousness can we please get this thread locked, its an embarrassment to the community.

LMFAO!!!!!!!!!! ROFL

i don't understand why some guys are so mean towards all women. some of us make really good sandwiches  

[Reaperpoo]

Some girls get so defensive about this, I've never met any poser girls that got carried, just girls/women that liked the game and played it like me. Why is this still even a thing anyway, thought it was pretty even these days anyway?

[Pee Jae]

Hey, I'm a guy and my comment was not sexist in any way. I only said I'd like to play with Dragon Racer sometime.

Oh. Sorry.

[jancz89]

I will be excited when I'll hear a turian female or asari on voice in mass effect multiplayer not before

I can't believe that some people try that...

- Why do you play online games?
- To meet girls/guys and have a relationship.

Internet never ceases to amaze me


Pd: If you ask, I only play online with friends or in games where people scarcely uses microphones, so I've barely seen stuff like this.

*National Geographic voice* We now have the opportunity to observe the average male human in his safe zone, in front of his computer, we can now see the male watching adult material on the word wide web. the human male launches a game and enters a match, he has now found a female gamer, he begins talking to her to no avail, the male's advances increase until he reaches the "rage" level. in this stage, the human male quits the game and returns to watching adult material, the human male then restarts the cycle.

Understatement of the year.

I was trying to say it in a polite way, more or less.

Anyways, I'm gunna leave now, I'm pretty sure this thread is giving me cancer.

Gamer guys, that's what we do, we hit on anything that sounds even vaguely female, why do you think so many girls just pretend to be guys when they play online? Or not talk altogether?

[Pee Jae]

Speak for yourselves. Joking aside, I'm not looking to get into a relationship right now, nor would a multiplayer game be the first place I'd look.

Insults, not having to deal with their annoying voices, etc.
And no, I'm a gamer and that's something I don't do... My only love is the Rachni Queen and I'll never betray her with a female PUG.

[Sorceress Delphi]

Probably my old habits dying hard. Used to be hard to be taken serious by gamer guys and it was frustrating.

In the last few years it's definitely improved but the leechers still exist. I know one who likes to brag about her awesome skills and then bawls when guys don't give her special treatment... drives me crazy...

Most guys though are pretty cool. You can have a good conversation without getting hit on. Haven't really run into any scumbags with mics in the short time I've been playing ME so the image of the scumbag misogynist guy thankfully appears to he dying as well. As much as people complain about the community, most that I've met are cool. Even with randoms.

I think I have more women on my friends list than men, of the people who use mics that is. Don't know, or care to know, the gender of non-mic using players. Finding female players on ME3 on the PS3 isn't hard at all.

Also, this player, and occasional BSN poster, is female. Decent player, not awesome.
Does it matter? Would you like to geek out on other subjects? I am fairly good at geeking over various games, Doctor Who, Star Wars, Battlestar Galactica, zombies, and horror and sci-fi in general.

Wow, someone else who likes Doctor Who, Star Wars, and Battlestar Galactica? Too bad you're on PS3, we could have great talks.
Anyways, I find with sci-fi you get both ends of the spectrum with women; some claim to know it and end up not knowing any at all, and others know more than most guy geeks. And frankly, I've found more girls interested in Doctor Who and Battlestar Galactica than guys.

Tictac, not sure if your word means something different, but "female" is simply the designation for a person of the fairer sex, same with the word "male."

"femelle" in french is for animals only, for a human woman it's offensive. 

I never thought that there was a language that made less sense than English.

Well, German has the verb come at the end of the sentence, if I remember correctly, so that's a bit odd. But yeah, English and French are just whacked. Trust me, I'm Canadian.

[Taritu]

There are quite a few. The other day I was playing with one and we were quietly competing for top score in over 10 games. I think she beat me in all but two.

Barely any people who talk on PS3, I also can't tell a difference between female voice and kid voice most of the time, yesterday's was probably a kid but I couldn't make out voice cause background voices......yes females are awesome, have yet to play with any ME3 one though, all chicks I remember were in MGO, BS2 and DCUO.....oh and Halo

Legit reason.

But it's kinda sad that women can't talk during games because they are afraid of some guy hitting on them (or bored of it, pick your reason). Again too bad, because it's fun to strategize and shout dangers while playing.

Oh and... I BEAT YOU ON ONE OF THE SILVER MATCHES IN SCORE! Yes! I'm awesome! WHO-HOO! Oh I am so good... Take that! Haha!

Is "female" normal for a girl in english O_O ? If i say "femelle" to a french girl, she will just kick my a*s.

I prefer "woman."

Well I mainly meant interested in talking at all. But I have been hit on plenty of times. They were all blocked immediately. I very much regret hainvg Lady in my name, but that's gonna change soon.

I've run into some that hit on me but given the number of games I've played an overall small percentage.  But then, I don't always speak.
