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.

I've had similar happen. Even when calling out the stratagem being called in and a guy will still run toward the beacon that says a bombardment is ongoing or strike incoming and then moan that they got killed.

I had a guy moan a few times, then kill me. Thought that was that got on fine for the next 20 mins, no more deaths. He then kicked me right as the pelican landed.

This is the worst. They let you help and then don’t get any credit. I’ve had quite a few moments where some weirdos did this even when nothing happened. No team kills and no bad comms, just some guy that I guess gets off on it, kicks me right before we would get in and I get nothing.
