Toxic Community
First, a Zealot running far ahead of the team, scooping up all the ammo and burning the Medicae so they could Rambo through zones without their team.

Second, a match where within 30 seconds, a barrel was used to blow me off a ledge.

I remember this being a team-game, but I guess all the people modding in scoreboards want to get their own numbers higher?
That's why there is no scoreboard, already.
So this type of toxicity wouldn't exist.

It figures the Siege and Overwatch players would get bored of their trash and move over to this.

Play as a team, with your team, or play solo with bots.

What's the point of playing a TEAM game if all you're interested in is your own score.
You're like the annoying ball-hog on the basketball team who checks their own team-mates to get the ball.

You people are the reason players are leaving this game.

A team game isn't all about you.
Please either grow up, or go play something else.

You people are almost as bad as the Dead by Daylight players.

Lastly, finding joy in causing distress to others is a form a sadism.
Go get help ;)

People are almost always cool when I play.

Sounds like to me you’re just slow, maybe not good. Most definitely playing on a too easy of a difficulty, that’s stuff doesn’t fly to well on 5+.

And I have yet to actually meet a toxic player. Maybe play a syker they don’t even need ammo.

And how does one exactly use up a whole med station? Did you not see it at all to use it?

You have put a 105 hours in the game in 2 weeks! That’s 7.5 hours a day. If you really think the community is toxic at this point I’m pretty sure it’s you that’s the toxic one.

Over 1k hours and only play with randoms.... The number of actual negative type of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ I've ran into is still well in the single digits.

Makes me curious how you were playing and if you said anything.

You get it sometimes, but just rando into another game. It happens.

If you met a jackass, you've met a jackass for the day. If everyone you're running into is a jackass, it's probably you. I've got plenty of time in this game and there are a few idiots out there, but for the most part I haven't run into anyone that bad.

I have 300 hours and I've met like... one(?) toxic player.

Don't forget that the massive modern audience of Concord is also looking for a new game since Concord is now shutting down.

On the contrary, I am pleased when a person appears in this game who can at least do something himself and does not need to be picked up every 3 seconds. I like skill players. And by the way, noobs usually steal ammunition, I've never noticed a high-skill player doing this.

I guess toxicity is only wrong when others are doing it...

So you are alleging someone targeted the barrel to blow you specifically off a ledge... and you accommodated them by going near a barrel with a ledge being near?

Have you considered paying attention to the level and avoiding or exploding barrels before you get near them?

Is that why you are complaining that people aren't looking out for you, because Team is about you?

Originally posted by Jack:

Yeah, because nobody would ever accidentally trigger an explosive barrel, rush ahead and selfishly take resources otherwise...

Not to mention, of course, the Scoreboard tracks you wasting ammo... so people with Scoreboard are generally mindful to use resources sparingly, in order to improve their Team Score.

And we care about either of these groups.... why?

No, apparently it is supposed to be all about you. Because people didn't pay enough attention to you. Because you didn't get to have enough fun or whatever.

So now you came here to let us all know that everyone that uses a mod is bad and the reason people leave the game... and that you expect them to pay more attention to you. Cather more to your needs. Make sure you don't get blown off a ledge, because you didn't pay attention to where you were standing.

Team apparently means that we need to make sure you can autopilot through the level.

Maybe you should take your own advise?

Sorry to hear OP, sounds like string of bad luck. The avg skill level in DT's endgame is definitely surprisingly low. But as someone with zero tolerance to toxicity, that kind of behaviour tends to be way way lower here than in other games on average. Especially games like Overwatch. Ofc I realize these are just subjective experiences, idk what region or time you play on and even then, experiences always differ.

Also not to downplay your experiences but are you sure the barrel was on purpose? I tend to blow up all potentially dangerous barrels the moment I can, especially near ledges or bridges. And ever so often someone runs right through me just as I fired it so I have to stop, the barrel starts burning, they're completely oblivious and just waltz right next to it and die. Once or twice they actually blamed me for doing it on purpose and I've no doubt the few times they didn't they did think it. I don't even blame them, but it's just bad luck. x.x

It's kinda like how a lot of ppl see a bunch of mobs around a barrel or two and merrily charge in there to fight instead of blowing up the barrel first (sometimes right at the same time as I or someone else blows that barrel up, or they themselves set it off by accident). A lot of people just haven't gotten used to how dangerous they are at all and don't even see them.

Why do you care and also causing potentially trouble to a team mate by blowing him off the ledge? Just leave the barrels alone. They dont blow up by theirselves. Are you some kind of babysitter? The only time when i am shooting barrels is b4 the boss fight in magistrati oubliette because it can cause trouble in the fight. Whoever is stupid or not aware enough to kill himself with a barrel deserves his destiny. Its the natural way of learning in dt.

@topic/op
Sounds really like you are playing on a low difficulty, maybe malice or heresy? Certainly not auric. My point is that you are expecting too much. In lower difficulties people tend to be bored and just want to have fun, they dont care about the mission or other players. When i leveled a new class up i also played on this difficulties but i trolled others because i was bored. You may find that toxic but its actually fun to hack as ogryn and take forever but in reality you are just doing nothing for minutes as long you dont get kicked lol
Dont worry i already have leveled all classes up. But maybe i will start a new character soon :>

In auric the players care more about the mission and bringing it to a successful end. Its not fun every time but also work sometimes. I only play on malice or heresy when i want to have a progress in missions asap from melk contracts (completing 8 missions). Just runnin and gunnin and you can do other stuff meanwhile, watching a yt video or something.
