Aweful Teammates

Anyone else tired of getting match after match after match of awful teammates? I'm not talking about noob/weak players either, they at least have a reason to suck. I'm talking about the s*itheads that just want to troll you during gameplay, or the ones that jump solo when they aren't jumpmaster, or the aholes that just leave in the middle of match when they get downed instead of waiting to see if you can get their banner.

This is supposed to be a communicative team game, but more often than not all I see is toxicity and 'lone wolf' players. When you can find a good team its awesome, there's communication, and you're having fun if you live or die (and these are the games that keep me coming back)..but when it's been as bad as it has been for me tonight, it really makes me want to just delete the game and say f it.

    @XxColdFangxX Yes its more than 60% of the times and that makes it a problem with the player experience and something the devs should look into. They should see the large data and do something about it because I would bet around 80% play like that and contribute to low quality experience.

    @Ingeniekey I highly doubt they will though. There's been things we've been asking them for since the game came out that they still haven't delivered on. I honestly feel like they don't care one way or another about the gaming experience just so long as they can keep the main player base they've been pandering to, which just so happens to be these toxic but plugs we keep running into in game,

    I agree, about 60% of my matches are the same....especially being someone that plays trios or duos with randoms when my son isn't playing with me. But you are right, when you do get a couple randoms that play like a team...the matches are awesome even if you lose, you had fun, maybe some good funny banter during and win or lose you leave the match still feeling good. 

    Old Tree Creeper said it best, if you can find a few guys to play with, that is your best bet. Sorry your having the same bad experiences that many others are having. Hopefully it gets better for you soon or you find a few good randoms to buddy up with. 

    Good luck

    I've come across good and bad players alike. I've even added a couple of the good ones to my friends list, but they're never usually on when I am. It was like that one chance meeting before our busy daily life schedules whisk us away. None of my friends play the game either, so I'm always stuck in a team of randoms. 90% no one uses a mic. 99% they all want to hot drop. Every single match I've had tonight where I wasn't the jump master-hot drop. Even had some solo jump into hot drops because I didn't want to go there. Like why are you so eager to die right off the bat instead of trying to have a good run?

    I even had to report a troll tonight because he was a complete a** during the game. A lvl 3 armor was pinged out when the second teammate found it and I pinged dibs. The first teammate stood right next to it until i got there, just to pick it up and then started punching me for no reason. I got knocked later on, and he kept pick me up, and then dropping me before the timer was done, and prevented our teammate from picking me up as well until the storm was right on us. I ended up dying in the storm when we could have been well away from it by then, but no, sadly he had to be a *.

    But my question is, what the hell is being done with these kinds of players? A slap on the wrist and a 10 minute penalty really isn't enough in my opinion. 

    I only had a good match tonight when I gave up on trying to do ranked and pubs and just went into arena.

    Yeah that sucks, had many of those types of matches and teammates. Not cool. Maybe his parents didn't get him what he wanted for Christmas so he/she is lashing out  : )

    @XxColdFangxX I have to add, that they are surprisingly worse in ranked than in trios. I'm fascinated by how ignorant some players are.
