Once again, a challenge to see who the majority is (like my inverted/non-inverted thread)
When you play a game, the type of game that YOU would usually play (if you usually play GH3, then choose that, if not, then pick your favourite game) what mode would you usually rather doing? Easiest mode (usually beginner AKA LOL NOOB) or Hardest (Expert/Legendary/Veteran/Insane, has many names, but usually screams PSYCHO!!!)
Remember, pick a game YOU would usually play. Poll if you don't mind, (just Easiest difficulty/Hardest difficulty)
And i can safely say that instantly, mine would be hardest, since easy is a breese, and normal... is still a breese, on something like GH3, i NEED to do easy/beginner, got terrible hand/eye co-oridination. (when it includes multiple colours flying ultra fast at me and expecting to move my hands at the same time)
P.S You gave me the idea min, and i shall show you that THE HARDNESS RULES!!! Wait a minute...

Lol, stragety games as in C&C type games? And that's usually true for most, some are actually hard, but once you figure out what to do, it becomes easy. All it takes is patience (AKA NOT throwing your remote at your TV then fornicating with it's destroyed screen... don't ask) and figuring out why your dying (usually people blame the game, when it's them being stupid enough to run right out in the open)
And your moral is so true, whydya think online is more fun? Because theres always noobs to pwn, and pros to pwn you. If your like me, you don't mind either situation, as long as they don't teabag me afterwards XD

did u mean HOW DO YOU START OFF WHENEVER YOU PLAY A NEW GAME???? do u start with easy then move to expert or do you move directly to expert. IF you have never played that game before. cause if it isnt then this isnt related to me.
to you question i will say i play in medium/hard difficulty but i rarely play campaign as i play multiplayer most of the time so cannot really say what difficulty.

I meant how do you start a game, and if someone makes it a poll *hint hint* it's anonymous so if they don't reply, no-one knows, and if they reply, they can just lie.
Anyway, only reason i go straight for hard, is because if i go normal/easy first, the game seems too easy, then i go to hard, then i start dying insanely (which is hilarious to me) but i have to adjust to the game being harder.
But i can safely say that the only game i'll do on easy (and only easy) is GH, i suck so bad that even on drums in GH:RC i kept losing the beat, IT WAS LIKE 1 DRUM BEAT EVERY SECOND >_<
@Lizardman:*Wiki's RTS* OH, would halo wars class as an RTS? If so, then i think i got a much clearer view on what your saying.
And lol @ pro noob, i can safely say i'm not uber, but i'm about borderline pro/amateur, i can beat you, but i know someone WILL give me a beatdown, unless i'm in a game with literally full on noobs eg COD4: Crossfire, 4 snipers on TDM, 3 of them in the SAME room side by side, the 4th in a building right next to it, yeah they can kill anyone who walks past the middle since if one misses, they have 3 more tries XD but snuck around them INTO their own base, and sniped about 8 times, before i died. I WAS IN THEIR BASE WITH SNIPERS SITTING SIDE BY SIDE FOR GODS SAKE! Their team still won, my team kept running down the middle...
If you don't know the map, here's a link http://www.combatrevolution.net/showthread.php?t=37 (light blue = building) They was all in the bottom right building, save one who was in the full right building, i went top right building and got em bad XD
P.S DemonDude, sorry for kinda getting you a warning on your first account (i can still remember that XD)

well when i firsted started doing fps's i did easy, to get a feel for it, and i normally do medium now, to get a feel for the game, then move to multiplayer. i go on resistance 2 all the time though, [used to be cod5 but not so much now, and the differance in controls led to me blowing up half my team once, so dont go on it much]

Added a poll-it depends on the game-if its something I have absolutely no experience of i'll practise on easy until I get used to the control etc, quit and then play properly on medium. Very few will I ever start on hard-games are meant to be fun not a nightmare.

Hmm... when you say just started, you mean as literally never played any older versions or anything really similar to it? Like... uhh... going from halo 3 (standard game) to GOW? (freshly bought, never played) (IMO they have completely different playing styles)
EDIT: Oh wait i just thought of a game where i did that, some flying game, went on to hard instantly (hard was the hardest on it) and was trying to get used to the flying sim, even after the training XD.

Hmm with FPS I'll always go for Hard, then Extreme.
RTS, start with medium to get used to the mechanics.
Depends on game really. Or like with Fallout, play medium to take out Behemoth, then switch to hard for final shot for max XP hehe, but set to medium generally.
Generally I dont play anything on easy because I like a challenge.
And I actually started GH on medium and couldnt finish the first song for a few hours, but after that flew

yes I mean one that i've had no experience of that game before-old versions or whatever. Although I do like a challenge-i have to admit I like turning on an easy platform game and just enjoy running through the game.

If I've never ever played the game before, I go on easy. Once I go a few levels, I swap to medium or hard. If I've played before, I go straight to medium, train to re-gain control over combos and what not (I play mainly fighting games) then just start bashing through things.
Haha, hardness does rule DJ. LOL. I can't believe no one commented on that... must be because I'm used to your perverted mind....

Yeah, sometimes it can be satisfying... but i kinda feel dumb afterwards, even though i just breezed through the game >_< Only time i'll go through on easy mode is if 1. I'm trying to get something specific on the game (games in general) 2. Using cheats (after clocking it on expert) or 3. If i've turned into a schievement whore (only games i've done that on are COD4 and COD:WAW, and by the way, that's pretty much what anyone who plays a game specifically for achievements are called.)

Fighting games are too hard... they're one of the only games i'll play on normal, but i'd still get my ass handed to me on a silver (bleeding) platter.
And lol, i think your the only one who noticed, you have a tendency to notice my jokes XD

I usually play a game at normal dificulty, but if i lose alot or it's too hard i put it on easy, finish the game on that difficulty and then switch back on medium and start all over again, it helps alot, tough there are a few games witch have only one dificulty playable till you finish the game and only then other dificulty lvl-s are unlocked...

fighting games - medium
stretergy games - medium
gun games - medium quickly to hard
sports games - expert
music games e.g gh - medium
my modes usually start like that but can quickly change depending on the game, if it is too easy i swap for challenege, if it is too hard i move it donw a bit to get use to it otherwise it gets boring when you keep dieing.
