The catastrophe started when a assured MrRoflWaffles signaled his intention to avoid wasting and stop then load again into the match. “This is how this works chat,” he declared. “You stop the sport, you reload in, and also you attempt to not get bugs.”
MrRoflWaffles, maybe shifting too quick via Black Ops 6’s pause menu for his personal good, unintentionally chosen ‘go away match’ quite than ‘save and stop.’ Despite the ‘go away sport?’ warning pop up, MrRoflWaffles proceeded, placing an finish to the run perpetually.
All the whereas, MrRoflWaffles’ chat couldn’t imagine what they’d witnessed, with varied messages of disbelief littering the display screen.
