Re: Appreciating your random teamates
I don't see how so many people are getting useless/bad teammates. Either I'm hogging them all or someones lying.
It's all about how you work together, some players are clueless and that's when you take charge, ping every place you want to go to and what you wanna do there. If players are wondering off on their own, stick to one other player so when things hit the fan, you at least got a meat shield with you.
Help them out by showing them how to move around, if you just run into a gun fight expecting them to follow, that's all on you. New/noob players aren't use to running and gunning. Adjust and you'll see how useful randoms can be.
OH and stop landing skull town with randoms if you can't fight off at least 1-2 people on your own given any gun (yes, even a p2020) because I'm sure the moment that happens, that's when people begin to complain on how they have bad teammates for not being able to revive them in the middle of your gun fight.
