Remember that a multitude of the fans of this game made death threats and spam attacks on reviewers who didn't rate it as the greatest game ever made, you should have known the risks going in.Roofstone said:For a pretense of discussion: Got any different views? Know any nice people? Please do share if you do..
However, most of this sounds like unfair griping. Just because people you are sharing a mission with play a type of music you don't like doesn't mean they are bad people, they just have differing tastes. If its a big enough deal to warrant a post like this just play with different people grouped together but don't treat it as a personally affront because a person likes gangster rap.
Also trying to eliminate competition in a race is a normal part of competitive racing games. From Mario Kart to Project Gotham I have seen infinite examples of people trying to force people into spinning out or losing position otherwise. That's part of being in a competitive race, gotta learn to watch your opponents and weave.
My roommate plays the game alot and he finds plenty of nice people to play with. Try to sort out the wheat from the chaff by being nice to people, there are gonna be a bunch of trolls out there but its one of the biggest game releases ever, there have to be a sizable amount of good people out there if you look hard enough.
