why do so many people hate bringing chokes?
its so awkward getting into a matchmaking lobby, asking someone to bring chokes and they say "uninstall" or "go ♥♥♥♥ yourself"

like how else are you gonna put out a burning body or a fire

Honestly I bring chokes everytime unless playing solo.

The amount of time I actually have to use them though is minimal and a Concertina Trap would be more useful.

Personally I even bring them in solo, it's really nice to be able to choke off exits/windows to shut-down flanks and such.

People get angry when you tell them what gear they should be using. Every player has his personal preferences. They don't want you making that decision for them. You suggesting they bring chokes shouldn't provoke anyone to be an Ahole about it but some prefer to be an Ahole rather than argue about why you should mind your own business and let them bring what they prefer to bring.

the real question is why you're still playing with randoms when the discord and solo revive exists

Because If I perform poorly and my partner does well (or vice versa) our MMRs will become more different. Therefore future games my partner will find it too easy and I will find it to tough (or vice versa). With complete randoms, I'm always grouped with someone who matches my MMR, no matter if my MMR gets higher or lower.

I'm probably in the minority here, but I much prefer playing with randoms.

I don't always bring them, but if you ask I always will.

Most people don't ask though they just dodge.

Are you actually asking btw, or are you phrasing it like a demand or in some rude manner? If you are polite most folks should oblige and if they don't, just dodge, no one should have to play with folks acting so egregiously.

Tbf if you are playing with teammates, and one of them asks you politely to bring a choke though, you should.

There is a difference between asking for them to be a team player, and asking them to change their actual load out, weapons, etc.

If they are running a trap build they might not have chokes though, so be understanding with some things like that, but asking folks to bring chokes is totally understandable and if you can establish good communication like that before the match has even started- you'll probably synergize very well in game.

Don't let them burn your friends corpsein the first place, so you dont need chokes

This is called being a team player... Sadly, this is a dying trend and mostly only older players will actually 'discuss' tactics. More likly though, you will deal with egos and super try-hard epeens..... Again, I think if you ask nicely and they are asses about it... easy sign to boot them out and get another partner. They are actually doin you a favor by not wasting your time :steamhappy:
