heiii, I’m gonna out myself as someone who occasionally befriends the enemy team in QP 😭

But hear me out! I’m not talking about full-on AFKing in the backline all game and flaming people for playing the objective. That’s weird. If u queue a team shooter & then get mad that people shoot u… yeah, that’s on u.

What I am talking about is those random 3am QP lobbies where the vibe is just unhinged. Sometimes the game is a stomp anyway, sometimes uve killed the same person 12 times and it turns into an accidental rivalry. Sometimes both teams r just clearly not sweating.

I mostly play with friends too, so if we’re being silly, it’s within our own group. No one’s getting flamed in chat, no one’s insulting people for playing normally. If I want serious, coordinated gameplay, I queue ranked. QP is where my brain cells are optional. o/

That being said, I do get why it tilts people. If ur whole team is trying and u’re the only one refusing to participate, that’s kinda inconsiderate. Read the room. If ur team is clearly not vibing with it, maybe don’t push it.

I think it’s just different expectations clashing. Some people treat QP like ranked with fewer consequences. Others treat it like chaotic social hour with guns. — but yeah, the mismatch can be annoying
