Doesn’t feel to good, to be honest. =/

Basically, it was an ICBM mission, we had 20 minutes left on the mission and everyone was at extraction (Which peeved me a bit, as we didn’t do any POIs).

I see a radar station literally right next to extraction, and say in chat i’m going for it.

Well, in the middle of raising the radar station disc, extraction lands and they all immediately get in, remember, the radar station is RIGHT NEXT to extraction, and we still have 20 minutes left. I barely finish the radar station objective before the pelican takes off.

Suffice it to say, I went from a bit peeved, to pretty peeved and just kicked them all.

I’m starting to wonder if some people just don’t have chat enabled or something.

    I mean, as host if you kick people between deployments then no harm no foul.

    Some international players can’t read English, the text chat is easy to ignore and some have voice chat or all sound disabled/muted. So it can be difficult to co-ordinate with randoms but you can get lucky or just play on a low difficulty to relax and have fun with casual bouts of teamwork.

    I just use pings and the comms wheel to indicate where I’m going and what I’m doing.

    Also keep in mind that some players have interpreted the “meta” of side objectives being significantly harder to complete after the primary objective to mean “beeline for the extract after the primary objective is done”.

      Lol I didn’t read your comment before making mine, but I just saw that you said:

      “beeline for the extract after the primary objective is done”.

      And I said:

      Once the main objective is done, I almost always bee-line straight to extract.

      Great minds think alike
