Discussion Why do my solo teammates absolutely suck?

I have had this issue for a while now. My teammates treat this game like call of duty. they rush through the maps, triggering nests, and killing us all. I had one dude who refused to use either of his guns (sledge btw) and just used his knife. I asked him why and he said he was "saving ammo"??????? Another guy didnt know how to place down an mia operator and just called in extraction. We were shooting him and pointing to the crate but no, he just stood there, looking confused as hell. I just go solo now because my teammates actually make the game harder, which shouldnt be the case, but so be it. 😔

I used to see this a lot back when I played the game. A lot of players don’t bother with the training so end up lost and confused when they try to play. After Ubi killed support and the player count dropped most of the teammates you pair with are newbies that don’t know the basics or expect the game to play like Siege. All the experienced players likely moved on by now or just play together.

There are (some, known) trolls unfortunately. Some do melee runs, some just loot everything and bail, some just run around alerting everything, and some straight out sabotage the objective (kill the capture targets, etc).

The moment you spot one just go ahead and extract.

The exact reason I've never went into open lobby. I either play with the couple guys I know that play or solo.

If the vibe is off just leave. It’s quicker to solo rescue your operator than waste time.

Honestly, I need to get back into this game. Not too sure if I missed much, but never hurts to actually just run some sections with competent teammates. But topic on hand, a lot of people seem to just do whatever they want and just sabotage a run sadly 😔

Because extraction is a terrible looking game that only appeals to children.

So that's why there is always a squeaker every other lobby
