However, I think people tend to take it personally.
If the game has an objective and depends on interaction between players, the best thing to do is to play together... Instead of going around the map with a knife trying to be John Wick "killing" everyone.
Ah ♥♥♥♥ now i really dont want to play it
I play solo, but I always stay with the group. I like to play support because I'm not as good with the shooting so I generally try to build my character in a way that is supportive of the team.
What makes this hard for me is that no one uses mics, or the game is bugged because I also opt into group chat, but no one talks.
It's further complicated by the fact that there isn't really a "ranked" or "unranked" mode. OP, if you're someone who is serious, you should go play the tournament mode or make more friends as @nosgoth01 suggested. Join up on a discord server or something. This game isn't e-sports ready. I understand your frustrations, but without transparency on how matchmaking works or visibility on player profile rank, there's no way to know if someone on your team needs coaching. I understand there were a lot of people playing beta, but because of the 2023 Game Awards this game just had a MASSIVE influx of new players.
Yes, that can be frustrating for more serious players, but overall it's very healthy for a game to have a growing player base. That'll translate to more microtransactions to fund further development like better matchmaking and so on.
Telling solo players to go away is honestly a foolish thing to say if you want this game to thrive. People have very few IRL friends these days. The gamer population is now full of many older people because those who have grown up on games are now adults with real lives and can only fit in a few hours of gaming a week.
The solution to your problem is something you can solve by establishing a circle of people who want to play with you. And as for your frustrations with the errant behavior of newbies, that'll go away as the new player base learns the best ways to play. And that'll happen when skilled players (allegedly yourself) are the last one alive and can show spectating teammates how you play. I know this for a fact because there are many untutorialized aspects of this game, like the fact you can grab and throw objects, including teammate statues to relocate and revive people. That very fact I only discovered when I saw someone else do it, and suddenly a lightbulb went off and I was like, "OMG, so THAT'S how you can prevent a team wipe and let your teammates spawn faster."
Instead of posts like this, I'd encourage you to maybe post like a "top 10 tips for new players" post or "10 things you didn't know can help you win a round" or something. Constructive feedback like that is going to help you reach your goal of a competent player base far faster than telling the constant influx of solo players to go away.
I sympathize with your frustrations, but this isn't valorant.
Take a deep breath and take a step back mentally so you can enjoy the game.
Don't forget that this is, after all, just a game – something for people to have fun doing. Playing a game shouldn't ruin your day or the fun you want to have, so don't let it.
