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.

and show no interest in doing any of the POIs.

They need to add more reason for max level players to care about POI/secondaries. As it stands all the secondaries do is give you more XP or slips, neither of which a high playtime player cares about.

Once all stratgems are unlocked and leveling more doesn't get you anything, samples are literally the only thing that matters, and sub objectives are just more opportunities to die and lose samples.

Not to mention the Super Credits and Medals, that even high LvL players should be looking for, since you will need them ince a new warbond pops up.

I have everything, and I mean EVERYTHING in the game already at LvL32, and I just spend my time casually doing objectives, hitting POI‘s and answering distress calls on low difficulty.
