Does block prevent further matches
I was just enjoying a match of Apex and I ended up running into probably the most toxic player I have ever encountered. For context this person was leading in kills because they were moving around the map really fast. Obviously one could assume he was pretty good. We end up going into a building and our whole squad gets wiped towards the endgame. Keep in mind he has 9 kills whereas I and the other guy have 1 each. During this fight I was the last alive and as soon as he died he couldn't stop trash talking. Some of his comments consisted of "c'mon, you guys are so bad" or "why cant you do anything". This is extremely ironic of this player considering that I lobbied up for a bronze 2 match in ranked, so obviously I'm not gonna be the best player in the world. After I die, I tried to be mature about it by telling him to stop being disrespectful, but then he proceeds to amp up the trash talking even more. He proceeds to say things like "dont tell me that, I already know" as a rebuttal to the comment I made of why I'm not the best player. And throughout all of this I'm being calm and not swearing, but at the end he just spams into his mic "get good", "get better". In general this was a really toxic and disappointing match, and I will probably run into another player like this in the future. It baffles me how often I run into toxic players, but this situation is the worst case scenario. I just want to know if blocking somebody on ps4 prevents me from playing with people like this again. Any response is appreciated, as I just want to ensure that instances like this wont happen again.
Blocking 1 toxic player will not prevent another toxic player from getting into your team in the future, I don't think, EA, SONY, Microsoft, can detect such behaviours at the moment. So just mute them and play like it's most of the games anyway.
I'm really sorry that you had such an incident. But it happen to all of us. Few days back I jumped into casual game just to relax a bit from ranked I was paired with 2 low level randoms. They started to talk in Arabic and they are friends and both of them sounded like a 12-15 yr old at max. As a fellow Arab I was happy to hear Arabic. As we play on European servers it's rare to meet arabs. I didn't say anything it was nice to hear them discuss the game and how they liked it. We landed I started running for loot and pick up everything as everybody do. So one of them cursed a very bad word at me for being faster then him and taking everything. I couldn't take it so I opened the mic and told him can you be respectful as for anything and I will give it to you. They were surprised I understand them and proceeded to curse my mother and sister out of no where and without provoke. Which is very bad in our culture. Of course as a muture person almost 28 yr old I won't get Carried away with such childish acts. So I muted them until 5 mins later both died and left the game.
So this such stuff happens, such raise above the hate. Skilled player or bad player no one have the right to criticise anybody gameplay. Toxic people will always be their. But we have to be better than them.
