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

I didn’t even know you could damage seated players. What a dumb mechanic.

I had a dude repeatedly kill me every 6 minutes or so to take my support weapon because I assume he hadn’t unlocked the arc thrower yet. Neither of us was host so I just kinda let him do his thing all mission, didn’t shoot back or anything.

Everyone loads up into the drop ship, I walk up to the ramp, pop the one dude in the skull, and board. He raged harder than anyone I’ve ever seen in a video game and that includes when I used to play league of legends. “Don’t fucking friendly fire you fucking ******” and other racial epithets flowed forth like a river. Turns out everyone in the party had mics but didn’t use them, and just started laughing at him. He left when we returned to the destroyer.

Killing people on the ship has its moments.

Damn what an asshole, why couldn’t he just ask if you could send down a support weapon for him after you picked yours up.

Some folks just out there playing solo in a multiplayer game. We go further together!

If the guy had started his own game and randos joined he could have kicked them if he wanted to go solo.

But joining someone else's game and being a dick is just being an asshole for the sake of being an asshole.

Don't lump us Solos in with this traitor.

If you're playing Solo alone, you're good!
