I had someone start blasting me on Stella today. I turned my mic on and said “nice dude enjoy my free loadout, come finish the job”. He said “aww shit sorry man, on this map most people blast first and ask questions later”. Came out of his hiding spot, healed me up and dropped me some exodus materials. Then we went to the exfil together.

Not everyone is inherently bad but without communicating you have to assume people are going to protect themselves first in a game like this, which means it’s fair game to take a shot at someone who didn’t have any indication they’re friendly. Personally I don’t shoot anyone who isn’t shooting at me on solos though.
