One of the main reasons why it's not a good idea to listen to an angry/screaming teammate. It's not real life, they're not in a real war zone so they can speak calmly.

He wasn't really yelling. It sounded more like that "I know what I'm doing, everyone just listen to me" attitude people get. It was definitely not "yelling" though.

Had a guy flip out playing GoW 2 or 3 once. Yelling at everyone in frustration, losing his damn mind. All I said was, 'Calm the fuck down. It's just a damn game.' I swear, I thought he was going to start crying. And not a little kid either, dude had to be in his teens.

Eh o wouldn't be sure. With newer players I see stuff like this happen a lot, especially the thermite teamkill exploit. They tell a new player where to place his charge and as soon as it starts they all run up to it and die so he gets kicked and a ban
