Can't take it anymore. Worst gaming experience I ever had. Been gaming online since q1. Playing with random teamates who do nothing but hot drop and run towards enemy gunfire cause they have the attention span of a monkey, is bad for my health.Tried to add some teamates around my level but they are not always on. I'll go back to playing titanfall 2 and bfv conquest. Apex is stressing me out, its planet of the apes. Good Luck Respawn.

I usually que solo so I’ve played with all types of different people. Sometimes I get team members that carry the whole team, helpful team members that ping the loot u need, ones that stay with u in a group fight, revive & Respawn u and then sometimes I get players that do the total opposite and are more like this meme 🤪 I’m happy to say that on the Australian Server I get more of the first group then the latter

We can all agree that randoms can be * sometimes BUT as someone who sometimes does everything the OP mentioned ON PURPOSE, I want anyone who reads this to stop and think back to these matches and see if you made any of these very aggravating mistakes yourselves.Being the jumpnaster and not communicating with your team as to where you're landing.Landing in the * end of nowhere like the shattered forest where the only available loot are lv1 helmets and p2020s.Violently spamming characters in the select screen knowing damn well it hurts people's eyes.Spamming pings or firing your weapons for no reason, specially on enemies that don't exist.Stealing loot like medkits and ammo that were dropped for other teammates who clearly needed it a whole lot more than you did.Spam pinging your banner after you went into a 1v3 and died instead of allowing your team to catch up.It's easy to blame everyone else but stop and think for a second if you are a good teammate yourself. I've been gaming for a while now and consider myself a good, respectable teammate so I expect nothing different from anyone I play with, but if I get stuck with a 12 yo who does what I mentioned above you can damn well be sure I'm gonna abandon your * and do my own thing even if it gets me killed

Before...I'd look at a post like this and be like "stfu...jesus..." but after hours upon hours of playing with Rando's when my friends aren't on I just...can't help but relate. I am quite sick and tired of being paired up with people who either a) Think they are like shroud and dizzy, rush in, get killed and quit instantly when they realise they are in fact not like those two or b) Have absoloutely no common sense whatsoever.I'm not the best player, I'm average at best but I know when to engage and when not to, I know not to pick up everything I see regardless of whether I need it or not, I know not to run in to 3 squads fighting it out like I'm Rambo and nothing can touch me, I know when to carefully use my abilities. It's not rocket science, It's not skill, It's just common damn sense and I seem to get matched up with people that have none of that and it's getting tedious.I don't care if people aren't the greatest players, I don't care if people get downed in a fight and I have to get them up, I don't care if I have to recover a banner and respawn somebody, it's fine. It's part of the game I can deal with it but the absoloute stupidity I am running in to lately is just mind numbing and really does ruin the experience for me.

I tend to agree...Yesterday was another terrible day playing Apex Legends soloQ...whilst I need to admit, that I currently try to do a lot of XP-farming to get at least a couple of levels on my battlepass done...and I still suck in aiming...but I know, that need to play around with the mouse settings a little bit more during the weekend...it starts getting quite annoying playing solo/duo most of the time...I didn't play a lot yesterday (maybe 8 games in total...), but I can't remember one game being full squad a minute after the game started...You will never hear me blaming people for running into bullets or getting shot in the back...that's part of the game & the learning curve BUT there is a couple of things I will never understand. What is the purpose of... ...jumping into skull town/artillery/market/bunker...when one of your mates (or even both) suggests to jump swamps/slums/runoff and more or less tell you - hey...I' don't feel comfortable going without proper loot into such a zone......leaving a game right after your team mates successfully got your bloody banner back, no enemies can be seen & the respawn itself just one zipline away......jumping apart of your team mates to get killed instantly...(and even worser)...trying to get the guy back without proper shield or weapon...to end up dying too for no reason...I never played a different BR before & maybe this is normal behaviour in these kind of games...but whilst I can ignore bad gameplay (as I'm also far far away from a good player) - I really struggle to understand above mentioned behaviour...and it seems like - if you want to play & enjoy this game, you really need to have a pre-made squad...To be fair - I also had a couple of really nice games with randoms independent of their level...but the reality is, that these games are very rare...and that's not good for this game at all...

If ur choice is to play with randoms, the outcome will be random too. Simple as that.And guess what? you are RANDOM too.

can't stand teaming with randos. quitting game.

I never played a different BR before & maybe this is normal behaviour in these kind of games...but whilst I can ignore bad gameplay (as I'm also far far away from a good player) - I really struggle to understand above mentioned behaviour...and it seems like - if you want to play & enjoy this game, you really need to have a pre-made squad...

People are stupid in every game, how is a devs supposed to fix people being dumb?
The only thing i can suggest is a LFG system so you can kind of pick a squad before , similar to Overwatch
But like that not 100% going to fix the problem.
You have every right to quit but not sure what how posting about stupid randoms is going to help the devs improve the game?
they have other more pressing problems to deal with like the hacking and bad sever response and the hit reg problems.

Nobody uses LFG in OW nowadays; it's just dead.

Being the jumpnaster and not communicating with your team as to where you're landing.

Landing in the * end of nowhere like the shattered forest where the only available loot are lv1 helmets and p2020s.

Violently spamming characters in the select screen knowing damn well it hurts people's eyes.

Spamming pings or firing your weapons for no reason, specially on enemies that don't exist.

Stealing loot like medkits and ammo that were dropped for other teammates who clearly needed it a whole lot more than you did.

Spam pinging your banner after you went into a 1v3 and died instead of allowing your team to catch up.

It's easy to blame everyone else but stop and think for a second if you are a good teammate yourself. I've been gaming for a while now and consider myself a good, respectable teammate so I expect nothing different from anyone I play with, but if I get stuck with a 12 yo who does what I mentioned above you can damn well be sure I'm gonna abandon your * and do my own thing even if it gets me killed
