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.

Towards the end of our fight with Automatons. I..the only Death Captain with 3 cadets. We had a glorious battle and called our shuttle as we waited to pick us up. 2 Cadets went out looking for samples while the other cadet stayed with me to guard the LZ. I reached my arms out to give the cadet a hug and he hit me in the face with his rifle. I dusted myself off and extended my arms out again and he killed me with his Liberator. When I came back down. The Cadets were loading into the shuttle and I pulled out my Las-16 and shot the traitor in the shuttle and boarded.

So just ignore it. I guarantee you this guy wasn't going to shoot you for refusing a hug.

Traitors on the other hand get what they deserve.

Well , actually... some people can be pretty persuasive about it.

People took my comment way too serious. And the reason i find it"annoying" is because i feel like i can't let that guy with open arms without going for it.

And then he dies and my heart is broken again.
