I usually play ranked with 2 friends of mine but they couldn't make it today so I decided to hop into casual and I met:
-Team killers
-Leavers (they lose 1 match and 3 people leave the game)
-More teamkillers
-People kicking you because you are left 1v5 are a defender (Really?)
-More teamkillers
-People destroying your gadgets
-More teamkillers
-Trolls who run and shoot around you so the enemy will know where you are (this felt like CSGO's casual)
-And of course more teamkillers.
The fun part is when you say a word about it in the chat people start saying "You're just a noob" "Go cry somewhere else kid" I am at least happy I won a 1v5 on one of these guys.
For me it seems like casual and ranked are 2 completely different worlds, a new player can't start a ranked game because he must reach level 20 but he can't reach level 20 because he is either being trolled and leaves the game completely or he stays in the game to become a troll himself.
I played around 10 games today and each game had at least one of the above.

Well, I play a lot of casual when I'm alone and I'm NEVER killed by a teammate, exept few accidents, in which I occasionaly have my responsibilties (you know, crossing the shooting line x) )
I only agree on the leaving thing, there should be a penalty in casual too, it's also important, you play a game, you don't leave it cause it doesn't suit you ...
You seem to have a serious lack of luck man, try the rabbit paw.

I agree. Casual was fine in the earlier days but it seems like each season has gotten progressively worse to the point now where 1 or 2 matches of casual just frustrates me to the point of not even wanting to play the game anymore. It's cancer now. And then when I make it known that I actually want to try to win and have a decent game I just get called a "tryhard". Casual has become a cesspool but yet ranked is also a bit frustrating because I don't have a team to join with so I'm also on ranked solo...

Wow I feel like it's the exact opposite. The TKing was horrible early on but now it's not so bad. Still happens on occasion a rare occasion. You are following the rules of soloing casual right? Like not taking the new operators quick before anyone else can, or any popular operators. In fact just wait for a good 15 seconds for everyone else to pick, then you pick Thatcher or Rook. Then when the round starts immediately prone to show submission, if no one shoots you, you can get up and follow Thermite or put down your Rook Armor bag.Originally Posted by INoIFeaRI Go to original post
Do NOT put up any barricades that might hinder your own team's movement.
Do NOT reinforce a wall unless you're sure it needs to be reinforced and no one might use it as a murder hole or a connector between rooms.
Do NOT shoot at drones unless they're far away from teammates.
Do NOT have any annoying noises coming through your mic.
DO make sure to not to live too long, people are impatient and angry that they died and are having to watch you.

Wanted to try this game.
2nd day playing this game. Cant say much about today except cant connect to play online.
Yesterday, played some situation on realistic mode, wished the AI were in different places instead of the same after you failed a round. Got tired playing after some of those rounds.
1st round, learned yes, people get impatient. I am confused. All my team mates are dead. I am stuck no idea what to do. I was last one to die.
2nd round, I was last one left, killed the last guy with shotgun. Not sure but people were pretty angry about me using a shotgun.
Every round after that I thought I would play against new people, newbies... that wasnt the case, I died to fast every round. I was teamed with people not my rank, played against people that ranked really high. While I am looking around, some people shot me through the smallest holes. It kills the fun sadly, its like people scoping through awps on csgo lol understandable. I kept playing every round because the game is new for me till the end of the round. People left some rounds because people got turned off because a team mate made a mistake ... sux we are playing casual, people take small mistake seriously. Learned a few stuff, some people were nice enough to leave tips like not to fire early on, not to use shotgun close range, other tips just escaped me. Dunno much to say I guess, did I learn a lot, not really, doesnt give me enough to explore the map and learn where I am suppose to go..
Dont know how reinforce a wall lol... I think you learn from other games not shoot at team mates. Thats s stick to you like a glue from csgo.
Lets hope servers come online, hopefully tomorrow is better than today.

I disagree. I sometimes happen to be the last surviving guy because I take slower approach and I often manage to pull the victory (not always but there is a good chance for it) because of that. So I wouldn't pay heed to people who rushed in because they were impatient and died, and now they are spectators. If anything this shows they shouldn't be playing this game or they should be the ones to change their approach.Originally Posted by GaloreCactus Go to original post
As for Casual being a horrible experience - I agree when it's a full (or almost full) team of premades versus randoms. But I didn't experience too many teamkills myself and leavers are usually filled in before the next round starts, meaning there is a good chance of getting someone who isn't a deadweight. So all in all I don't think it's that bad.

since the beggining of the game that i have been saying it, ranked plays out a lot better than casual , always did.
maybe its the responsability to win in ranked that keeps people more in check , casual feels like a laboratory where people do whatever they feel like , everything but play like they should , as a team.

I do not want to sound rude but you should be playing Situations (on realistic mode) before turning on the multiplayer, so you can see the maps and learn basic stuff. Also, watching YouTubers will help your standings with this game (Serenity17).Originally Posted by RaygunRarus Go to original post

What on earth are you taking about? 'Rules of soloing' this is a joke! Do you actually believe this is a reasonable set of expectations? Who died and made you sheriff?
I'm LMFAO at 'do make sure to not live to long' - what a completely absurd thing to say. If you aren't able to wait patiently while your team mates finish their round, this isn't the game for you.

I lot of the time i play solo, but i do try to go on ranked when i can, i often jump onto casual when i cant be bothered to concentrate as much. and as you said there are so many team killing and trolls its unreal. the thing i hate the most is when your alone and join some guys who are in a party of 3 and you simply get kicked for picking the class that they wanted. This also happens on ranked just not as often. I think they need to do away with the kick sytem alltogether, also get rid of team killing that way you would have no reasn to kick someone. If there AFK they will be booted anyway. So why do we need to kick sytem. Its unfair to kick a player just simply because he is not as good as you want him to be.
