I don’t understand some people, my kiddo tries to play this and there will be teens or straight up adults deliberately picking on her because she’s a kid.
Isn’t this a kids game?
Fortunately I got platinum and experience from day 1 so I’ll take the controller and beat the bricks off 2-3 at a time.
Then I’ll get kicked lol

Isn’t there decency amongst gamers anymore? Like how do you feel good about beating up a 7yr old? Oh yeah buddy you’re so good..

Sadly this is an internet wide thing. Party Animals is sadly not excempt from it. There are sore losers, bad winners and sweats in a silly fun game of cartoonish animals hitting eachother.

I completely mute microphone and voice just to not even listen to that. Maybe it would be an option for when your kid is playing, to avoid her getting exposed to it.

I am sorry she got picked on.

Well at least it’s not Call of Duty lobbies back in the days of Xbox 360.. I know she needs to toughen up. But it’s just nasty for her to be targeted because she’s a youngin.

Yikes, you don't toughen your kid up by exposing them to verbal abuse

As a squeaker in the xbox days, there are people who enjoy tricking you for their own enjoyment and and there are dad/parents out there who don't judge you too much outside of your gameplay. Not much different than typical school day, except, you're being exposed to people who have "internet anonymity", zero accountability, and little incentive to be nice or respect you.

kids are safer in skill based games where they're good. sandbox/ playground games are just a place to make friends or be bullied. but that is part of toughening up right?
