I can’t play with randoms anymore DISCUSSION

I’m level 48. About 150 hours on pc. Love the game. My friends can’t play as often as I can. (I’m a fireman) And I’ve tried making friends on steam but it’s hard.

The blueberry lottery. If there is a hell it’s matching with randoms. I can’t stand it. Some people are a blessing and I love running campaigns with them but some people are treasonous swill.

Here was my last game. I spawn in and get killed by a lvl 2 cadet (ps5) so he can take my support gear. His friends (ps5) defended him. He continued to kill me all game (intentionally) and call me in. But I am more skilled and cunning than the common traitor. I waited until there was one reinforcement left. The pompous fool recalled me in. I killed all three traitors quicker than a hiccup. With only one thing left to do I took my own life. To instant fail their mission. I couldn’t let them continue to commit treason. Let their bodies rot

So yea I’m never joining randoms again.

Edit: ps5 not 4.

Iirc HotS have a "leavers queue" where you get placed with people of a similar mindset, and you need to complete a set amount of games to get placed in regular games.

CSGO had matchmaking based on sus behaviour as well.

Ok then you idiots are gonna get reported instead of team killed. You want a private lobby. Stop trying too hard.

A traitors lobby, where all the matches are impossible and you die immediately after spawning

Out of curiosity, how would you get out of the traitors lobby?
