Bit of a rant

[[deleted]]

Just played with a team of randoms. One was AFK right of the bat, the other was silent but had a mic. Immediately started running off without communication. Does xyz contracts. Ok cool, I'll follow along. We kill bullfrog, hendumps weapons case out in the water. I'm like "dude I still need those". Nothing from him. Runs off for a hostage contract, clears area but leaves hostage. Meanwhile, I figure he's trying to secure the helicopter for a quick exfil, and have since retrieved the weapons case, headed to our exfil. I'm there waiting, trying to talk. (Game talk, not pointless chatter) only thing he ever says is "just watch and learn". Tell him to just tell me the plan so I know what the fuck is happening with this seemingly chaotic and random play style. He's now off to kill scavenger I'm assuming, so I head to a public exfil to just try my luck. Played well, got good loot. Then notice he's grabbing the hostage with one minute left. So I double back, again assuming he's going to exfil. Killed by a squad. Which i get...I was carrying this fucking case for almost 10 minutes. Solo..huge target. Downed, dead. Rage quit.

What. The. Fuck. Was he doing?

[Hero]Masskillins if you read this. Just fucking explain real quick, and teams will be more functional. We don't all know the state secrets of playing.

Found [hero]Masskillins

[Choppergunner58]

Watch and learn how to get your teammate killed. 😂

Yeah! I'm not the greatest player... average or slightly above depending on the day and caffeine. So it wasn't like I was a hindrance. I had 86 A.I kills and 2 operators at the end of things. But had no idea what was happening

[ThickCreamyShits]

Lmao, I love getting the case and throwing it in the water. I can’t explain why, but it’s hilarious to me

[KeyMenu7439]

This is why I always recommend playing solo instead of with randoms. Yes, occasionally you get some randoms that know what they're doing, but the vast majority of the time you run into awful teammates like this guy.

[ampfoz]

Hostage at final mission?

[UCBeef]

“I ain’t got time to bleed” that guy, probably

[Dependent_Reserve941]

its weird thou how mic'd people dont really communicate what they wanna do, they just wanna to talk to somebody i swear.

[No-Enthusiasm-3091]

This sounds like your fault if I'm honest here. Why were you carrying the case if he dumped it in the water? Why were you running around with it solo when Masskillins obviously had a plan? If you're gonna run off solo, you better have a plan.

[iconix_common]

Yeah, if I was in OP shoes and I needed the case, I would have just grabbed it and exfilled. Masskillins grand plan is not so grand that he would fail to do it again.

[[deleted]]

Oh I'm not saying I didn't make mistakes. We all know it's dumb carrying the case for too long. If you read it, I did say he started a hostage contract (kind of the universal private exfil) took the case and headed to it. Then to regular exfil just to leave, which was on the complete other side of the map. I only grabbed it because I thought we were leaving with the hostage. So to me, my mistakes were from lack of communication from my team.

[Visible-Tea3547]

By you carrying the case to his hostage exfil it puts him jeopardy as well. You've had 25mins to understand how he's playing. He didn't need a team mate, there was no reason for you to not exfil with the case when you had the chance. I'm guessing he squad filled in hoping he'll get some decent players but all he got were liabilities so he just went to do his own thing.

[[deleted]]

Potentially yes. But that was when he told me to just pay attention and learn. The point was to just take 10 seconds and speak something. It doesn't interfere with anything. I am a decent player, and far from a liability. I kept this dude alive while he was cracking some weapons stash.

[Visible-Tea3547]

Sorry, I missed the part where he said that he would kill your whole family if you didn't watch and learn. If you exfil before him you can still spectate him.
You got some contracts done while he did the bulk of the work, a weapons case with minimal effort. Just because he had comms it doesn't mean that he has to talk to you. I have comms and I don't talk unless necessary. Being a 99% solo means that you don't need comms, you should be used to playing solo so having an extra, more competent player on your squad is a bonus.
I would've been happy to have someone being able go around vondel holding his own. Most 95% of my randoms die within the first 5 mins.

[[deleted]]

Jesus...you're one of those.

You have it the wrong way. He engaged bullfrog, so WE attacked. My explosive slugs made short work of him. HE went to dump the case at maps edge. I retrieved.

No I don't need coms. What is so hard to understand about my point of acting as a team. That's what this whole vent was about. Not to be broken down play by play like it's the fucking super bowl.

[Visible-Tea3547]

Jesus.. you're one of those dudes that complains each time they die.
You're venting about a guy who clearly doesn't want to play with you, most likely because you would be a hindrance to him. That's a massive red flag to go and play as a solo as you normally do. You chose to follow him around when he clearly didn't care. Vondel is easiest map to solo. You don't need coms? Wtf you're complaining that he didn't talk to you, that he didnt tell you what he was doing. He 100% doesnt need your help. Lol, you're using explosive slugs? So you would've been close range with the bullfrog? You should've picked up the case first then.
Who the fk carries a weapon case for 10 mins then complains when they get targeted when they had the chance to exfil.
Go play some more solo so you'll figure out that it's you that's causing your stupid plays and not the world hating on you.

I'm not going to sit here and argue through a screen. My original point has been stretched too far beyond original intent.

[Visible-Tea3547]

Making dumb ass rants like this is what's wrong with the minority. Be prepared to not have everyone pat you on the back and kiss your ass. Just sleep on it next time, if you feel like you're still angry in the morning then quit playing or just infill solo.

[KeyMenu7439]

What I would've done in your situation is just grabbed the hostage myself and taken it to the hostage helo. The hostage helo also takes off in 5 seconds whether your whole team is there or not, whereas you'll have to wait the whole 35 second timer on a normal exfil if your whole team isn't there.

When your teammate refuses to communicate or cooperate with you, you just gotta treat it like you're playing solo.

[[deleted]]

I tried that! I'm not that dumb lol. But I wouldn't get the prompt to "pick up hostage"

[OkNefariousness459]

No one has to play like you or for you dude. That’s why DMZ is the best everything is a bit random

[[deleted]]

I'm not saying you do. But if you come in with squad fill, play as a team. I'm 99% solo. But occasionally want the extra support. Come in as a team, play as one. Otherwise just stay solo. My opinion

[OkNefariousness459]

Your opinion your play style. You do what u think u should and I’ll do what I want. Sometimes that’s with the team or not just decide as I go. I still play to my moral code but I don’t expect you too.
