In a FPS (First Person Shooter) I am annoyed by people... Quick scoping, people camping with a LMG or some fully automatic

In Racing games, People wrecking me just for YouTube...

YAY AN EDIT!: New thing to ad to a FPS game, Kill streaks... lets go into COD: Ghosts terms (Since I just rage quit from that) overpowered killstreaks, specifically the Oracle, you can see through WALLS and combine that with the Ground Jammer, the enemy is then blind...

Well, most problems I have are not of the genres, but of the developer's mistakes, or of the community's annoyance.

*First Person Shooters: I like FPSers, but the typical audience, such as for Call of Duty, are quite annoying and tend to boast about how "obvious good" they are. I like the FPSers because I like the idea of point and shooters, as well as how simple and fun it is.

*Racing: I'm actually not a fan of racing, but it doesn't really annoy me. Mario Kart is fun, though. :3

*Third Person Shooters: For TPSers, I don't like GTA, but there are some TPSers out there I really enjoy, like Microvoltz, GunZ: The Duel, Manga Fighter, and such.

*Sandbox: Sandbox... Well, there are plenty of games out there in this category, specifically Minecraft and Garry's Mod. Brilliant ideas, but my main issue is how limited they can sometimes be. Still not annoyed about them, though.

And you missed quite a few other type of games... :p

Horror / Thrillers: I would say I hate these, but with YouTube videos, I quite enjoy watching my favorite YouTubers legit play them now. <3

Role-Playing Game: Usually linear, which is completely fine, especially since they usually run on a storyline.

Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game: Love these, but it depends on how tedious the combat and quests are. I'm also a sucker for customization.

Simulation: Ranging from Life Simulation of the Sims, messing with powder in the Powder Game, or even driving a truck in Euro Truck Simulator 2. So many different sims out there. :p

Puzzle: Come on, puzzles are awesome! It's just when you run out of creative ideas for said puzzles is when they get boring. :<

Real Time Strategy: There's Warcraft III, Starcraft II... So many games in this. But, one thing that really does annoy me here, I guess... The AI is always either impossible to play with, or super easy.

Turn-Based / Tactical Strategy: Final Fantasy Tactics, Disgaea, Pokemon Conquest, Fire Emblem... A great series, I must say. Just wish they had more customization. :p

Multiplayer Online Battle Arena: I guess I'm most annoyed with this, but that's just me. I'm not a fan of fast paced battle arenas, so it's not exactly my type of genre.

... Sorry, this kind of turned into a name-all-of-the-genres-I-can post, rather than what each of them annoy me with. xD

Any FPS that a knife will kill you in one hit but a bullet to the face wont. And that is why I play ARMA. Also anyone who uses the word quick scope, no scope, and most of all if you complain about hard scoping. ITS A SCOPE! YOU LOOK INTO! ITS CALLED USING IT CORRECTLY NOT HARD SCOPING YOU MORONS!

Not so much an annoyance because there's nothing wrong with it, I simply just can't handle it, but...

I can't play any open ended RPG that doesn't properly show you where the quests are. I tried Fallout 3 and Skyrim, quit after maybe an hour for each simply because I like doing everything in a game, and knowing that I could be missing a quest drives me up a wall. Thats why I really love borderlands as an RPG, because it shows you exactly what the side-missions are and how to start them.

Don't really not-like anything...
FPS: Awesome, some of the best games ever, imo, are FPS: the Bioshock franchise, Minecraft with bows, Deus EX: HR etc.
Racing: Awesome concept for mobile games, allows for insane graphics on PCs, but is best played on consoles with somekind of tilt control (my favourite and last racing game I've played: NFS: Hot Pursuit (2010 I think)).
Third PS? Yeah, GTA Vice City. :p Other than that, I guess you could call the AC franchise third-person, so yeah, love it! ^.^
Sandbox: I thought Minecraft was a sandbox game... Though, many moons ago, I loved this one (an ACUTAL SAND-BOX game): http://dan-ball.jp/en/javagame/dust/

Though, if you add multiplayer to any of the games, only racing and sandbox games are cool. Everything else, you get killed instantly.

Also, you should add adventure and side-scrollers (and side-scrolling shooters) to the options.

What really annoys me about some MMORPG's (even though I love them and this one is really more Wizard101 than any other mmo I've played) is that first off the game's advertised as Free to play but you can only really do such a tiny portion of the game anyways (and believe me when the first area is called Unicorn Way it can be really off putting but the funny thing is it has nothing to do with Unicorns). Also, I rarely PVP because everybody has the amazing gear at high levels and farming for it in Tartarus takes aaaages and the final battle of the 3.5-4 hr long dungeon can take at least an hour to finish because of the ridiculous cheats on the bosses, as well as being the only fight that matters.

Tl;dr
Free to play is more like you get 2 legit areas and the rest of the countless areas you gotta pay for, as well as good gear is annoying to get.
