There’s a hell of a lot of toxicity, selfishness and just plain lack of any kind of team etiquette in this game when queuing with randoms , but for me there’s a few things that stand out the most . 1. Running over and swiping everything from a supply bin I’ve just opened / running ahead and taking everything from the building I pinged and landed in. Oh your down now are you? Well il just wipe that whole squad solo with a p2020 no armour and the 1 syringe you were so kind to leave me . 2. quitting when you haven’t even been thirsted and I’ve gone out of my way to fight my way over to you alone with practically nothing . Fair enough quitting if your miles off and a Rez just isn’t gonna happen, but if I’ve just wiped a squad solo and there’s a ton of loot available and then you quit as I get to you that’s just a waste . just happened to me on WE , landed at fractured and got 9 kills in the first 4minutes , get over to my teammate and he quits . 3. People landing solo and then spam pinging enemy when they get downed , then calling me a * player down the mic . Really does amaze me how dense some people are . Plenty more but they’re the ones that stand out to me . This was a vent for me as I’ve had terrible luck with teammates all day today , but maybe you’ve got some more to add to the list ?

@MassiveVernon Those that land where i ping on drop and take everything under my feet have a special place but I hate everyone else equally. xD

TMs who are d*cks on purpose. Had one yesterday who just continued pinged "I need energy ammo" over and over and over again, constantly. Same with respawn pingers beep beep beep beep.I fell for the trick once where they drop their purple/gold shield, ping it then stand near it, then grab it just before you do. If someone does that to me now, I throw thermite at them.Lobas that shut their shop the split second you get there on purpose. Or Lobas that shut their shop when they are stealing from the vault - yeah I know I can't steal from the vault but there's other stuff around!People who shut doors in your face when they know you are right behind them. That happened yesterday when me & a Crypto were being chased up the steps at the Airbase. Got to the building at the top and the Crypto shut the door right in my face.People who, when you've got cover in a fight, punch you out into the open.Players who when they've started a 1 v 3 and get knocked ping "help" or "enemy here" over and over again when they know full well if I revive them I'd get shot.Caustics who run into small buildings during a fight and block all the doors with traps so you can't get in. In fact Caustics who block doors full stop. I was knocked in a building at the rig when my Caustic TM came in, blocked both doors with traps then revived me. The enemy squad were soon on us and of course, we were trapped. I almost laughed when the Caustic was knocked when someone shot him through the window. Of course then the room was soon filled with arc stars, grenades and thermite, then harmless Caustic gas (as the enemies shot the traps from a safe distance). And then death.People who take armour you've dropped for someone else. If I am revived or respawned after a fight then chance upon gold or red armour I often drop it for the person who revived me. Last time I did this the Caustic grabbed it before the Path I was donating it to. We punched him several times but he wouldn't give it up.

@MassiveVernonCowards!I hate Cowards.I hate non-aggressive teammates that do ont push nor help in fights until you are downed.I hate people that over loot.I hate people that haven't figured out the game yet.I have been playing since season 0.This game is easy to win in.There is only 1 way to win.First and for most be super Aggressive!Pick a warm or cold area with enough loot for 3 squads.Land loose if cold, 30 meter apart.Land closer if warm, 20 meter apart.Land tight if hot, 5-10 meter apart.Quickly loot, then quickly clear the area.Then finish looting the area.If super hot then loot quickly and rotate out of the area.Go to the next area, third party and clear that area.Then loot the area.Continue as above until last ring.Always ambush quickly. Do not waste time poking!Do not give away your position, nor the element of surprise.Ambush quickly!Close the gap quickly!Always shoot in the back or side.Get in their face with a gun you are comfortable, Quickly!Mag dump them and kill before they get a chance to react.The best weapon for this are R301 Havoc, Flatline, R99, Full-Auto Prowler.Second best: Eva-8, Mastiff, and Peacekeeper.At least knock 1 enemy member within 2 seconds of starting fight.Finish last 2 squad members, after knocking at-least 1.Fights should last no longer than 12 seconds.If fights last longer it is because a squad member is not pulling their own weight!!!Every squad member should get at-least 1 kill per squad wipe!If some one is not getting kill then they are being carried.Last if you are playing with Lifeline you can not get knocked!!!You are the most important member of the squad!Lifeline can now bring a squad back from certain death with little effort.Abuse the res-shield.Heal and constantly revive.A downed team member should be downed no longer than 5 seconds!If it take more than 5 seconds to revive with Lifeline you are utter-trash!You have your priorities wrong, and you should have let someone else play as Lifeline!Lifeline is the only legend in which you are reward for reviving!What I hate most about this game is the players that haven't figured this out yet and are worthless cowards that want to camp on the side of the map!This is not real life!Why are you hiding!Why are you playing this game if you are not going to fight.You should be testing your combat abilities and constantly improving through experience.You can not improve your skills by hiding!I do not get these type of players!!!!For the love of this game, always test your self and you abilities.Practice running the R99 or R301, and mag dumping enemy players.Practice sneaking up on players that are unaware and mag-dumping them before they can react!

Where do I begin?Ping spam: Self explanatory.Quip spam on the dropship.Dropping solo for no reason.Two teammates knocking themselves and boosting each other for revives and respawn challenges/badges while you fight 1v3 all game. Constant rushing. Sprinting to new areas and expecting to be followed without pinging or warning.Shooting my Caustic traps down!! STOP that! Late dropping, and going backwards into a hot area where it's blatant that other teams have already landed and are locked up and deeply entrenched in battle.Lifeline not healing the team and forcing you all to use meds instead.Spamming "I need light ammo" etc and punching you because they can see you've got a light gun too. Bro, maybe I've also got 20 ammo, leave me alone. If I had enough I'd give you some proactively. Punching me off edges that I can't easily get back up on for no reason. Taking items you've dibsed with plenty of time.Ring-lurking for "easy kills" without warning but getting caught in the ring, or getting downed in the ring, before spamming the ping and expecting me to sprint 200m into the ring for their banner.Loot goblinism: Snaking items from right under me, or from a lootbox I've just opened when it's clear that I'm rooting through my inventory to shuffle some stuff around.Playing solo and dropping with two people who are friends/partied up, and them never pinging or sharing with me because they're telling each other things and holding onto items for each other instead.Teammates not joining fights THEY started. They've entered an area alone, started a fight, I've run in to try and help and bail them out, and they've used my distraction to run away and leave me for dead.Teammates both sat watching and teabagging my death box, letting my respawn timer count out, so that they can loot my stuff. Yeah, seriously.Pinging gold items to show off what you've found, and picking them up. I don't care if you find gold stuff unless you want to pass it onto me. Don't tag a Kraber if you're just going to pick it up, ffs.*-poor positioning and awareness. Sitting on a ridge at the edge of the ring with ten seconds to go, now pinned back by two separate teams, but being absolutely oblivious to the fact that I've been hammering the "Let's go here" ping for the last two solid minutes, to get us into a strong position ready for end-game.Thirsting and f-ing around when it's the final circle, or final squad. Teammates seem to get a rush of blood to the head and lose all ability to be aware of their surroundings the ring location, and the importance of holding the strong point in the last circle. Had a 3v1 earlier but my teammates got complacent and stupid, and both decided to go for glory individually by chasing the solo guy down near the edge of the ring instead of holding the only building left inside the ring. Both of them got downed one by one, and I had to salvage the win 1v1 - He was a very good player, my teammates underestimated him and almost threw the game because of idiocy and impatience. When you hold the ring, waiting and letting someone come to you is 99.9% of the win. Entering long range engagements with enemy snipers and giving away our position using an SMG or another equally short ranged weapon.Cheaters. Happens all the time, almost every game.There are so many more but this felt good to get off my chest.

@MassiveVernon Loot goblins... by far the most annoying.

What’s your most hated teammate behaviour?

I mainly play with my friend these days so no real rando issues apart from the obvious stuff.
My teammate has annoying habit of yelling "insert expletive here" then the name of whichever legend kills him....yet entirely forgets to call out how many were on him.
So I rambo over to avenge him only to run into entire squad....always stressful. XD

@MandatoryIDtag Yeah I try to aswell as I find playing with randoms all day ends up just putting me in a foul mood lol . Can’t be helped sometimes tho when everyone is busy .

Yeah I know that one haha . With my buddies it’s usually ‘oh they’re so low push now’ then you do it an they have almost full health an shields lol. atleast it’s just funny when it’s with mates though init . Like I wouldn’t be half as bothered if a mate looted something I was going for but when it’s a stranger it’s just plain rude lol

My #1 pet peeve with randoms
- Not wanting to be the jumpmaster but pinging where we should land.
If we don't land where that person wants, they will purposely not care for the rest of that game.
#2
No communication
- No pings
- No pinging what you need
- No pinging items that I need
- Running off without communication you doing so
- No enemies (And for the love of all holy, tell us that's you didn't want to engage (Mainly to uor 3rd random))
I guess I hate when there's no communication between teammates.

@randplayer2 Yeah clear communication is probably the biggest help towards winning tbh . Knowing what your dealing with makes a massive difference , and even if people don’t have mic there’s no excuse to not ping when there’s a decent system for it

@MassiveVernon Only a few really bothers me:

1. Standing into me and don’t let me aim and constantly block my shots or even grenades.

2. Do not rotating on time.

3. Changing landing location on the last minute because they saw one other team headed towards there.

4. Loot goblins.

@Alphabets Yeah changing location last minute is really annoying, that or jumping backwards towards a hot drop really late so you land and there’s not a single item to pick up and then boom instant death .

#1 thing that will always get me pissed, is when teammates have a mic and don't communicate anything for the entire game, EXCEPT to screech at you for not doing what they want you to do, despite them never communicating anything. I hate it, whenever I get those teammates in game, no matter what I'm doing I just throw the game.
If you won't talk to teammates EXCEPT to be a *, then you don't really care about improving the situation, you just want to wallow in your own bitterness, which I will happily oblige you in by compounding whatever bitterness you feel by throwing the game right that second.

@pastaclown I hear you man, have had that almost The entire day today lol. I’m usually quiet on mic til a reason to talk comes up, or unless someone feels like making friendly conversation while playing , but is always funny playing with my mic muted then unmuting when someone is going off on one screaming at me , they usually shut up instantly not expecting someone to put them in their place .

@MassiveVernon Exactly lol, weird though if a random did the same thing I'd be raging. XD
Friendships are a funny old thing

@MassiveVernon I had a similar experience to your #2 reason. A teammate of mine quickly picked up a gun and shield, and then tried to third party a fight all by himself when our other teammate and myself had nothing yet. He expected to take down both full squads of 3 and obviously got slaughtered (but not outright thirsted). He spam pinged everything, and once our teammate and I finally got something to fight with, we actually ran in and took down both teams by ourselves. I was literally half way through reviving Mr Rambo when he just quit on us. That * infuriated me.
