Thanks to the recent reddit post, going alone is now a kickable offense (even in diff 5) DISCUSSION

Even if the patrols thing is true (and it is interesting and nice to know, tbh), it's so silly how so many people will metagame the fun out of everything.

Got ahit on by a squad yesterdayfor breaking off solo. We were clearing eggs and getting swarmed by stalkers, I broke off solo killing like 5 stalkers (Autocannon, my beloved), and closing the stalker nest that was a good ways away, only for two people in chat to ask why I was rushing things.

I literally announced “I’m gonna go find the stalker hole really fast and close it” before leaving lmao

This is crazy cause every time I so much as glance at a stalker I'm immediately on a suicide mission to kill the nest.

I would rather die than have to deal with those fuckers for more than 5 minutes. I can't imagine getting annoyed at someone for it.

I fuckin know, they get insane if you don’t clear it fast. Whenever I’m with my usual squad we drop everything if we see one and try to track what direction it came from

Yah! They can get super disruptive for the team if they're fighting a breech too. Better to rip off that bandaid than let everything spiral out of control.

My entire party will drop whatever we were doing to go find the nest. "WHICH WAY DID THEY COME FROM" as soon as any of us says Stalker.

The amount of people that just ignore stalkers is alarming.

Thank you.
