Griefer-friendly games

GTA Online. Nearly everything Rockstar put into the online part of the game is basically just tools for griefing. Especially things like the Mk II Oppressor and the orbital weapons platform. The only problem is getting that stuff is really grindy.

They actually just nerfed the MK2 so that the rockets have lower accuracy to prevent griefing. You can still do it without getting banned, but there's better vehicles for it these days.
 
Fighting games, sorta. There's always some cheesy character/tactic that makes people super upset in lower levels.
Me and my buds were having a game night, and we decided to buy some power rangers fighting game. The quantum ranger (time fire), has an attack that knock you down from a far, and you can spam it, because it's his pistol. My first few matches queuing for opponents had them rage quit because they couldn't move with that cheese. Then another person who knows how to play kicked my ass.
 
Anneurism IV might scratch that itch! Griefing isn't a bannable offense, though there are game mechanics that punish it a bit. Quite a quirky and fun game.

Rust also springs to mind, you can really annoy people using a lot of the in-game mechanics.

DayZ too with a bit of social engineering.
 
I have a few thousand hours in the game RUST, its known as the most toxic community for a reason. you can do anything to other players on most servers
 
Bloodborne. I never ended up finishing the game because I ended up just staying at the part where you need to run from safe zone to safe zone through poison fog while horrible monsters attack you and invading people's games over and over again stopping them from getting through that section which was already pretty tough as it was the first time through without griefing.

Perfect Dark had a pretty fun counter-operative mode where one player would play as a random enemy and tried to stop the other player from completing the missions.
 
Conan Exiles comes to mind. Even in PvE servers you could kite the boss creatures into players' bases provided they had some kind of opening, and have them kill all their thralls and tamed animals through sheer attrition. You could also kill players who went to sleep on accessible platforms or on the ground so all their loot decayed before they logged back on.

I know this because a friend told me. I totally don't engage in this sort of thing....
 
Helldivers 2. You can hoover all the samples and suicide into a vent, preventing their recovery, and everything you use to kill baddies can be used to kill your squadmates. The worst that can happen is you get kicked. Or at least that's how it was back about a year ago when I stopped playing.


fake hackers.webpIt's hard to understate how much of a griefer's paradise Dark Souls is. I have somewhere around 2000 hours in the game and the most fun I had with it was doing themed hosting sessions with other idiots from /dsg/. Our most successful ones were fat club (we wore nothing besides the sack, used CE to set the torso size really wide, and tossed dung pies at the invader) and fake hackers. If the related picture makes no sense, here's what's happening: at the time, a lot of low effort "hackers" all used the same setup - full havels, tranquil walk of peace, divine blessings, and the hacked +14 crystal greatsword, with ninja flips and hornet ring. What's in the picture is us camping the townshit with endurance gouge builds so we can use ninja flips and hornet (we had to use the dad mask), normal crystal greatswords, red moss which has an almost identical visual effect as a divine blessing, and ditto for seek guidance looking like TWoP. We actually ended up in a handful of those stupid "top 10 dark souls hackers" compilations that used to be a thing back in 2012-2013.

Anyway, somewhere out there there's some footage of people invading and instantly crystalling out after seeing three simultaneous casts of seek guidance lmao.

Tranquil walk of peace and wrath of god spam for the win.

old battlefield games, you could just destroy the entire tank garage, and helicopter, and even fire artillery on your own base.

The way it was coded you only got kicked if you killed 6 players. Buuuuut it never said anything about other equipment lol.

CoD gun game when you just run around knifing so no one can finish.
Every card game ever where you just rope and waste time out of spite.
Warframe letting you shit out infinite particle effects into peoples faces, teleport them around, yank them around, shoot out the windows and activate the air lock, etc.
Any game with friendly fire.

I know few people who absolutely raped the invite beta to the point where the discord of the game was nothing but complaining about them.

When you play on super helldive level nobody cares about samples.
Ive played the game quite a bit and ive only come across one genuine retard, i could tell by his accent he was retarded.

Personally, l4d2 is an extremely easy game to grief.
Its simple, expert difficulty, have "vote to return to lobby" bound on mouse3. Initiate the vote and start killing the other survivors.
That vote will prevent anyone from votekicking you for its duration, and quite often people press f1 without reading when youre griefing because they think the vote is to kick YOU.
Just leave the match before a votekick can get called on you.
Change name, profile picture, repeat.
My highest streak fucking the same lobby with the same 3 people in the lobby is 7.
When ive done it, biggest obstacle to doing it is OTHER PEOPLE DOING THE SAME EXACT THING!
Its fucking ridiculous how many people are doing the same thing.

Oh and garrys mod, atleast it used to be, havent played since 2020.
Crashing RP servers with sweaty basers was always so fun to watch.
"oh you spent last 10 hours sitting in this base printing money and it took you that time to get this many printers? well fuck im sorry, i just accidentally spawned bunch of gear props ontop of each other with the fading door tool, so i guess youre gonna have to retry"
I remember once googling some annoying retards username which led to his facebook with his address, so we made a "retard kindergarten" base with a sign above it that contained his homes address.
We got banned half a hour later but not before spending that 30 minutes listening to some retard scream about how "THEY HACKED MY COMPUTER BAN THEM!"
Rejoined later when he was on with an alt, his name and real picture and i kept going from person to person telling them my home address(his) while calling myself a power bottom gay prostitute.
Good times.

Any game with friendly fire.
Years ago when some maps had "radiation clouds" you could jump through the cloud and you could deal friendly damage for 5 seconds.
That lasted a whole week.

Elite fucking Dangerous in Open Mode. I've been ganked by my own faction more than anyone else. There are literally players famous for it that will ram you to avoid the utterly pointless limp dick penalties the game places on you.

Some of the most fun I've ever had in pvp was ruining people's day in early release Dark Souls. I got the game at launch in Europe and my favourite thing to do was invade in Anor Londo with a full giant set, Black Knight greataxe, Havel Ring, and a pre-nerf Darkwood Grain Ring. The last thing a lot of first time players saw upon entering the cathedral and getting up to the rafters was my abortion of a character front flipping towards them at mach 10 speed before spamming Wrath of the Gods and throwing them 100ft down to their deaths. The amount of death threats I got on Xbox Live for that was incredible.

As for other games, Mordhau used to have the most golden community of schizo shitposters I've seen in any game, with the griefing both in gameplay and especially in the chat being as big a pull for me as the combat. Unfortunately it's now a shadow of it's former self as the game implemented stricter moderation a couple of years ago and the mods are you're typical Reddit tranny jannies who are very quick to pull out the ban hammer, which seeing as the game only has like half a dozen servers up (all of which are official) basically bans you from the game outright. As a result no one even talks in game anymore, let alone shitposts, and the gameplay is all just sweats abusing glitches which while still kinda griefing is just braindead and not fun.
