Any tips ?

Like I die in some online game, any tips to NOT go shouting in the chat some mindless stuff out of anger.

Basically, any tips to claim down ?

I used to rage all the time. Strangle pillows, punch my brother's stuffed animals. I might suggest walking down a straight line, saying the alphabet backwards, take a breathalyser...
Just kidding, (unless you like that sort of thing) I usually breathe deeply, count to ten, and if I'm still upset, I begin counting doubles, as Ender Wiggin does in Ender's Game.
Hope I could help!

how about don't get so emotionally invested in the game. Dying is part of the game. Very few people can play a game without dying unless you put it on the really easy difficulty level which a monkey could beat.

You can (A) set the level difficulty to preschool and never die once and succeed easily.

You can (B) take dying as a challenge, not a frustration, and think "Okay, what did I learn from this? How can I do it differently next time I'm at that stage."

You can (C) level up insanely high so you don't ever die. This is applicable to RPGs only, though.

You can (D) die, walk away from the game for ten minutes. Go to the bathroom, get something to drink, take a quick break while you're still really upset.

I understand what you're talking about. I would die in insanely tough nintendo games back in the day and parts would be impossible. Battletoads is one example. It was infuriating. Now, I relax, I enjoy a game and I try to figure out what went wrong.

I look at it clinically, not emotionally.

First and foremost, no matter what game your playing, practice makes perfect. If you keep dying, stop whatever your doing that leads to your death. Ill use WoW as an example. If you play on a PvP server and die when your afk, stop going afk and logout when you need a break or something comes up. If you die in a particular raid instance over and over, dont blame the tank or heals, but instead find a way to make yourself more efficient like lower the dps, or find a new raid group that works to your advantage. Raging everytime you die, especially with an online game is only going to get yourself more enemies and a bad reputation.

I also find that not ingesting substances with high amounts of sugar can easily help with the anger issues.

whatever you feel, effects the look on your face and what you say, however.. it works the other way around!

so just say out loud what you would rather be thinking about your death, ("aww," "that was a weird way to die", "darn,") and make sure you aren't showing anger on your face!

or look at it this way, what do you have to lose from dying? maybe even die a few times on purpose just to show how it isn't that big of a deal, that's what I do!

Stop caring about the game.

When you die, you die. Oh well. It's very hard to die many times in a row against more skilled gamers. If they hack, oh well, they are cheating themselves, just get better and try harder, and when you kill them just once it's an accomplishment. If you ever get that emotionally invested into a game, then you need a break.

It's up to your mindset, really. I don't see how we could offer anything super helpful if you are in the totally wrong mindset to be calm while playing a game. If you convince yourself that you can't be calm by yourself it will not happen.

I actually used to rage at video games but discovered something. I find myself becoming more upset whilst playing video games if my bladder is full. So if you become upset, just stop to drain the main vein. Not only will it separate you from your source of anger but unloading that bladder will help.

I have the same problem i just go crazy when i lose a game.
best thing too do is have a pillow and if you die just grab
it and scream in the pillow a bunch of swear words and it
should calm you down enough.

Take a deep breath and realize it's only a game and there's no need to throw temper tantrums. You can always try again...you'll win, eventually. You could also play a different game...

When I start reaching a high rage state I save and stop playing for awhile, give myself time to cool off and stratagize. There were a few times playing through Mass Effect 2 that I came rather close to chucking the 360 controller into the television screen... and that would have been bad.

I've got a solution: get better. Online is especially a cause of rage since there are times when people kill you in rapid succession without getting kills yourself. Something like that is what pisses me off the most. You gotta learn to predict the actions and movements of other players and then cut them off in the middle of their plans.

thenumberone : Oh god, I hated the collector ship even on normal. The other ones that really pissed me off were the dlc fights in Lair of the Shadowbroker and Arrival (the later mostly because, well, where the heck are they spawning from?).

I remember getting pissed one time playing World of Warcraft because I was being camped by a level 60 (yeah, pre-Burning Crusade) and I was not even lvl 20 at the time... something distracted him and I was able to hearth out of there finally, but it was very annoying.

What I do, is I make a joke out of it. Like if my character falls of a cliff and dies, I yell like I'm falling. It makes me laugh. Try to do something that will make you laugh instead of getting angry.
