Selfish teammates
Nothing winds me up more than teammates who pick up loot that I've called dibs on. I always play with my fiancé and then a random. Even if we're short ourselves, we will always share loot between u...

I wouldnt do it personaly because i dont like people whining at me, but if i dont have a backpack and someone pings a blue one right near me . . i dont really see why i shouldnt pick it up because you clicked Dibs on it from several buildings away. The same with armour. The system is a good thing to have, but people need to be realistic here.
I had one guy absolutely rage at me last season because i picked up a prowler that he had called dibs on, thing is there were two in the same room and i grabbed the wrong one by mistake. He then acted like a petulant idiot for the rest of the game.
@Piabetic I'm ngl if someone does it to me that's it for the rest of the game too..I mean if it was a mistake and there was others around it wouldn't bother me or if you found one shortly after and pinged it for me knowing I wanted it originally thats cool. But just to take it without any consideration for your teammates i think is wrong. I get if there's better armour and I've pinged it or whatever that you might also need it. But I think this in a team game its decent to not take something that someone else has called dibs on. If you need it then call dibs.
@fallenH3ll I always share my loot and if someone dibs it ill let them have it except in a few situations. If its a kraber, triple or a devo if I need heals and they dont if I need ammo and some one dibs a pile of ammunition I need.
@fallenH3llIf I'm standing on the item next to the teammate that pings an item and the other teammate pings it super fast from a long way away I'll take the item but tell the person through the mic I'm carrying it if they still need it when we meet up. It frustrates me when people ping things I need from way in the distance that they then never pick up, costing me the items.
More frustrating to me are teammates that wont share heals. I've given people my last heals knowing I cant get any more but I ask and they claim they dont have any, then 2 seconds later get shot and are healing.
@fallenH3llThe fact that I am saying this doesnt mean i am one of those guys, many times i have passed on an item that i could have used because someone called dibs. I just feel that certain things, guns or a hop-up or gun add on then calling dibs is fair enough. Other things like armour and backpacks . . you can call dibs on them to make them stay on the screen, but i dont see why you would expect a team mate to walk past a bigger backpack or better shield just because you happened to be looking in the direction where the other guy pinged it and clicked on it faster. It is a team game after all.
If someone calls for ammo ill drop it for them, ill even give them a gold helmet or backpack if it suits their character better etc so i dont consider myself a selfish player. Personally, if i called Dibs on a blue shield and the other guy didnt have one and gets there first i just let it go because i dont see why i would have a right to have it over him anyway.Maybe they could make it so both team mates can call dibs on the item, at least you know you have competition for it and get a move on to get there first.
- @hayhor The healing and shields thing is very annoying. Ive had games where i've been on low health with no way of healing for ages but my team mates think its a good idea to leave me that way when i know they have shields and med packs. They then proceed to clear out all the areas we come across before i get there and keep moving at a breakneck speed whilst i'm limping along with 30 percent health and one bar on my shield.
anyone got teammate who make fun of u when u get down ?
especially when u wipe full squad.
@xMaxrayx that would be my little brother.
I have been fortunate for the most part, besides one game I was in a group with my friend and I was Plat. We get a TTV guy who has all pred badges and etc.. Guy starts blowing up and calling us trash cause we didnt W key a fight of 3 teams and kinda chilled for a minute. He runs in downs 1/9 in the midst of the fight and gets killed instantly when we were saying to wait for a sec.. Then immediately calls us bad players and never gonna be good enough.. Had another one where a guy didnt rez cause I guess he was in discord with his buddy and ignoring vc in game.. then types that im bad after I out damage both and they get 3rd partied from sitting still looting. lol Anyways just a salty rant, those are the 2 that stick out to me.
Karma will get these guys hopefully lol.
@hayhor that's fair enough regardless letting them know if they need it you've got it. And I wouldnt dibs something if I was in a completely different area of the map. I wouldnt expect to get it then. Only in im in the surrounding buildings.
Yup, people that don't drop shields just so they have plenty for themselves winds me up. I'll drop anything like shields/ health etc if I have it regardless of if its my last.
@Piabetic that's not a bad idea about letting multiple people ping an item. At least then you'd know they wanted it rather than it just looking like they're being a * and taking an item regardless of the fact you've called bids
