What happened? Do people just not bother learning a game anymore or what?Every game I play has been, 90% of the time, has involved people that just do not know how to play this game. There are hundreds of videos online to help new.players, there's the training area, hell, even Respawn has a tips and tricks section to the forum and yet there are so many people just refusing to learn the game! It is more than looting you know! You have to actually learn how to move in firefights. How to shoot. I even had a player who didn't know the game had learnable spray patterns to the guns! Jesus people! Learn it before playing!

Your a loser if you expect other people to "study" a game. Some folks are here for fun and have 0 aspirations of anything more than just distressing at the end of the day.

My communication isnt lacking as I'm always pinging and talking (if my squad is English speaking which is rare enough). Im talking about the players that are going in completely blind and then wondering why they aren't doing well. Im talking about the ones that think every legend works the same. I'm talking about the ones that run off on their own as say through the mic "the game is mine" like the team dynamic means nothing in a game that REQUIRES it. I'm talking about the players that have such a small gasp on the basics they have no idea how to do anything apart from loot.As for the risk of queuing alone...my problem extends to my "friends". They refuse to learn the weapons and just play and then wonder why they can't hit anything!It's a game. Maybe the majority treat it as such and just start it up and play.Not everybody will scour forum or YT for info. It is just a game remeber. Thery might think you are a saddo for knowing all the ins, outs and mechanics this soon after launch.Not everybody is hardcore and for you to assume and scoff at people who are just "playing a game" is ignorant.Will you get any recognition for your skill? No. Will your life turn sour due to losing some games? No.Stop expecting everybody to be as invested as you in this title. It's free and will attract a huge casual player base. Deal with it.Edit: What is it with FPS communities and massive egos and elitism? What gives? FPS forums are full of egotistical players. Compare that to the sim racing scene where everybody is friendly and helpful. Even the super quick aliens take time out to give advice. Here? It's all "noobs", "they suck, I don't". You sound exactly like the Cod community kids.Take your fragile online ego and stick it.

It looks like every post you make these days is a complaint targeted at the community.When your squad is looting you could provide them cover.Get a mic and talk to them in a passive manner and not aggressively or condescendingly like you're doing on the forum.I feel there's more to this than just your input.

I just hate those players that starts calling others idiots. Once both teammates were down in middle of smoke and I was looking to see if path was clear to reach them, and one teammate started calling me idiot for the delay. My solution was so simple, left the game without helping that real idiot.This is team game, and for that respect is required.

I'm 46-years-old. If the OP thinks I am going to sit here and watch videos, and read guides, and study the ins and outs of a PvP game before I play it, he is out of his frigging mind. I play a video game to relax and have fun, whether it's a PvP game like Overwatch or Apex, or an MMO like WoW. Anything I need to learn, I will learn in the game through trial and error. If he doesn't like that, he can just continue to get bent, because I'm not sifting through a bunch of videos and written guides studying some video game for his, or anyone's, enjoyment. I'm playing them purely for my own enjoyment.

People learning a free game at their own pace, their own way are not idiots. I don't think your an idiot either however I think you are buying into a really ugly mentality which is unfortunate. You need to join a discord gaming community where you can group with players who match what you are looking for. Let us crappy players enjoy the game too.

I think noone is an idiot. Its unfair to say such barbage.
As i see this these people you blame are just victims of the modern game industry.
Back in the days, when i was young and comodore c64 hits the market, games came with a booklet cointaining just minor informations. No tutorials, no Internet to get some informations, just learning by doing.
Todays games are like: Press X to win, Press Square to lose.....
YAY , i won hahahahhaha...
90% the current players are expecting to get all the usefull informations about this game right from the start. Just to press a button and have beeing the champion.
Just give it some weeks. Most of the ppl will get how to do it right. Im sure.

Oh I'm sorry. I have a life outside of this game.
To help not being an idiot.
I'll divorce my wife, disown my children. Quite my job. Sell my house and contents, my wife will get half obviously.
I'll rent a dank basement live off noodles and Mountain Dew, then dedicate my life to studying and playing this game to appease you. Also trying to make your gaming time more enjoyable for you.
