What is a tryhard? I hear it a lot, mainly when some one is trying to win, which is odd to me cause that is the point of the game.

Seems you try to win and get called a tryhard, don't do good and get called a noob. No matter what you are called names. Seems like a messed up system. Stupid community.

THIS^

A tryhard is someone who uses the best set-ups every game, and is always trying his best to do well. You can win and not be a tryhard. If you use the PDW/FAL 95% of the time, you're most likely a tryhard.

Again, it's not necessarily a bad thing. I mean, personally I think that playstyle gets a little old and people should branch out, especially if they're going to try and claim they're good at the game. But when it comes down to it, they bought the game, and they're entitled to do what they please with it.

And I never call bad people "noobs", especially not in the form of ****-talking. If I'm in a party I might say, "Damn these guys are horrible. This is almost too easy"...but it's not like I'm going to get into the post-game lobby and start berating them for being bad at a video game.

i do like the pdw but not 95% of the time. I kinda use the skopo and mp7 a lot now. When i was first learning the maps and it was a new game yeah i used the pdw a lot. why not? I guess im too main stream. need to be more hipster

So anyone who doesn't use the best guns every game is a hipster...? It's not like I choose to not use those guns because I want to be different. I just have learned that I have more fun when I branch out and give myself a challenge. It's not like I consider myself above anyone who uses those guns all the time. Although I do think someone who can hold a high K/D with a wide variety of weapons is better than someone who can hold that same K/D with only 2 or 3 great weapons that they always use.

I think we should all start making fun of it until it changes.

Low blow! Not to mention my GFAQs username, which is probably even more douchey XD
