Was playing with two buddies and someone sent a message “cancer three stack”. I was amused honestly but it made me wonder when this culture of hating on people playing with friends started. If I recall correctly this wasn’t really a thing in d1. I played against plenty of teams in skirmish all day and never once faulted them for playing together. Why is it frowned upon to play with people if you’re all decent players? Should anyone with any skill be forced to solo queue? If you’re salty that half the people on one team are in a fireteam you’re legit looking for an excuse as to why you didn’t play well. Please don’t give me the communication argument either because honestly we’re more likely making fun of each other than making call outs.

1 Reply@ Folk saying "stop complaining and join team communication": Just off-handedly, what about players who can't use mic for whatever reason? Deaf players, mute players, players who suffer debilitating social anxiety etc. It's a really BS thing that QP (you know, casual, open PvP environment...) is reliant on teamplay to win games, and therefore reliant on team comms which are virtually inaccessible to a fair number of people that most of the community don't even think about. That's what really irritates me about the state of teamplay in QP, and to an extent PVE - it's becoming increasingly exclusive.
