Do you play better alone?

[Chloraak]

After careful investigation (That is, running two games with a 5:1 KDR), I've noticed I'm a lot better at the game when nobody I want to show off to is present. -_-;

Does this happen to any of you guys?

[Spud]

I've noticed I do better some days and do worse others. Then there are some days where I do absolutely terrible.
The people I'm playing with don't really affect me much. It's more the people I play against.

[Doodle]

I do better usually when I'm not playing against people I know.

[Allegretto]

I am much better with no one around. I only play Modern Warfare 2 with people from Nsider or with Magnum, and we are always laughing and screwing around so much that I never really excell.

However if Magnum is just there watching me I can still play well.

[Matt]

Not really. The way I play really depends how I feel and how focused I am. Some days I will do well, other days I will do completely horrible.

[BOREDFOREVER]

Nah, my level of play seems to be a crap shoot independent of any known factors.  I lack consistency in MW2.

[Custom]

I usually do well while playing with strangers rather than with friends.

I can't take games seriously while playing with friends.

[Triforceman22]

I definatley do better by myself.
I have discovered how much fun Free-for-all on MW2 is.
my K/D has been going up ever since.

I wish I could vote twice.  I just went 47-8 and was 4 kills away from calling in a nuke... ;~;

[MoS]

I can play fine when it's with friends and people I know, but in front of people I don't know I generally do a lot worse.

37-3, 21-5, 40-14, 58-17, at least one AC-130 each time, one away from the nuke multiple times, won every game, nobody to witness it.

10-10, 21-15, and 11-8 while playing with friends :\

Although thats most likely because I like to play domination/HQ when I'm alone, but my friends always play ground war or TDM, which I suck at.

[So_So_Man]

My ability at FPSs seems to depend on how sleep deprived I am.  For example, I will play much better at 3 in the morning than I would and 5PM

[Zero]

It doesn't really affect me, honestly.

I haven't played in a while, I feel like it though.

[Magnum]

Never mind. I play better WITH people. I almost always at least get 1 nuke when I'm playing with a group of friends. It's awesome. Got 3 in one night last sunday.

[Red]

It depends who these people are. For the most part, I play about the same. Maybe a little worse with friends, because I'm talking more, but that's about it.
