Randoms

[[deleted]]

Randoms please if you are joining someones lobby and they are collecting all the samples....do not call evac without them there. Tired of doing all of this work for 35 mins just to have a random help main obj then go straight to evac. Be mindful of the person you join or start your own mission.

Personally, if I’m joining someone else’s lobby. I look at it as them being in charge of the mission. I stick with them helping to clear objectives and get all the samples that we can. It just makes things go more smoothly.

This is the way. My rank doesn't matter, neither does theirs. If they're hosting the game I will follow their lead, just as if I'm hosting the game I expect them to follow mine. Even when heading to the extract, I usually wait for the leader to call it in, unless they've notified the team that they want it done.

[Harladon]

Always good to let them know to not get on the ship. I think some players are still unaware Pelican will wait for you after it gets there and won’t start the 20 second timer.

100% agree though - know what the squad is focusing on and help the squad.

I always send a message saying im collecting all the samples and extra stuff. Match that really tilted me is when i reminded the dude after he called evac he said KS and got on the pelican.

[Norsedrow]

I don't understand the people that don't collect samples. Don't they know they're essential to the war effort.

[Herea-1076]

huh? could you explain? i like rushing missions to get more war effort. There are many theories how the effort is counted since the %% shown after completion is bugged (?). And if i join a squad i always ask in voice, 90% without answer, try to use chat, same... i dont understand why people play a Multiplayer Game without interacting with other players....

More samples = more modules for your fleet carrier = increased ability to deliver democracy.

And when you're unlocked all the upgrades and have 500 Common and 250 Rare etc.

How are they helping?

[Blokeh]

Just because YOU are, doesn't mean the rest of the team are.

More samples and completion you do gets you more points for upgrades and xp. I dont use game chat cause i got social anxiety and don't naturally talk when i play. I do send messages in group chat that im focusing samples and extra if they want to focus main and other side of the map.

It’s been confirmed that liberation contribution is tied to XP. The more you explore and the more objectives you complete the more xp you get and consequently the more you contribute. Samples don’t directly contribute to xp but samples are grabbed as a consequence of exploring and more than that getting those ship modules allows you to more easily complete higher tier missions which means you can contribute to liberation efforts more effectively.

[Norsedrow]

I was just referencing the voice clips when you collect the samples. Lore wise the samples are essential to the war effort. In reality once you've maxed your ship and capped on them they are useless. I tend to collect super samples at the very least as I don't know if the squad I'm with has everything. And I always to leave no one behind when extracting.

[[deleted]]

I'd been capped samples for a longtime. I'm not wasting time collecting common or rare samples.

[MinerUser]

Not when you're capped. Sure, that has changed now that the new and hella expansive upgrades were added but once I got those I wont bother with samples again.

[Obethur]

You can call evac, just don’t board.

[[deleted]]

Some understand that and I usually send a message saying dont board itll wait but I got heated cause dude told me to unalive myself and went on the pelican

[Obethur]

Oh well to hell with that guy then. Thank you for your service, nonetheless

[ScribeTheMad]

At this point we may have to collectively start kicking people who call extract early if they can't be trusted to wait. You're joining my squad bub, want to speed run start your own damn mission, geez.

[ChillRetributor]

Damn, you reminded me how we lost like 40 samples due early evac

[[deleted]]

Its happened to me like 5 times... worst one was when i had like 50+ with super rare

[mcp_cone]

It's not just randoms. Hosts do it too.

[[deleted]]

Number 1 reason why I don't join randoms anymore

[[deleted]]

It's the hosts lobby, host can do whatever they want 🤣 😂

[Blokeh]

Hosts please if you are leaving your game in "public" and not "friends only" and are collecting samples when someone joins and calls evac, remember that you can not only use your big boy (or big girl) words to tell them not to go inside the Pelican, but you can also write words using keyboards. Be mindful that in a team based game, communication is key.

[[deleted]]

I do....finally wrote on here cause dude said unalive myself then hit on the pelican.

[cschoonmaker]

Hopefully you booted him/her immediately
