I miss the first 3-4 weeks of DMZ, where most of the players are friendly..
for the first three weeks i didnt even know you can squad up .i would be confused when players would down me and asked if i wanted to squad up , like what you already killed me 😭😂
@@pomonax we tried to explain all the players we met, how they can accept our invite. DMZ needs a training mission, like Plunder had.
@@ksoma14 yeah honestly shouldve been one of the first missions when it first came out . & i didnt understand plunder till we won first place with no kills
I still believe there are good people in the world. Lol. I’m always down to team up
@@texactual after we killed (most of) the enemy team, we are ready to team up with them. But first, you have to show them who is the boss.. :D
Stod I love the amount of patience you use vs that 5 man team, I woulda liked to hear there coms trying to deal with you. Great work
Yes! That's exactly what you need in DMZ PvP fights I find
Love this! Exactly how I play with my friends only 2 ways I shoot at players, for missions or if they shoot first, but I always give them the option to join or go separate ways
Same I’ll never shoot first and I alway send out Multiple invite other players, but if you don’t except it’s fair game
I like to put them down first. People seem much more willing to be civil that way. Dunno why.
This in my mind is what DMZ is about!! Only way to play IMO!! 👍🏼
The first engagement it seemed like the other operators wanted to team up, but Stodeh & Co did not respond at all to those requests. I would’ve started shooting at that point as well figuring they were getting ready to engage.
@@ZeroTwoWren That was Stod and westie asking to team up. The other team ignored.
I never ever went on prox chat in s1 cos I was scared of giving away my squads tactics but this season I've had tons of amazing interactions from going on prox chat and asking to team. Gotten myself killed just as many times doing that too. A lot of people clearly have prox chat turned off and don't even hear you asking to extract together or whatever, but I've had squads notice I'm solo when I haven't noticed them, not shoot at me, and then they invite me and we roll together.
But on Ashika I've also gone around hunting people down and trying to make 6 stacks for that purpose. That's part of the joy of DMZ, there are no rules with any of that, and you never know how people are going to act or respond. It's one of my favourite things about it.
Precisely why all this "solo only" or "remove assimilation" shit you see online would ruin the entire concept of the mode.
@@kingpurest6279 yep, it's all part of it! I think adding pleas for solos would be a great move though.
Yeah that's the biggest thing the consolers are limited in what they can hear sometimes if they are on another voice program.
I never get people to exfil with me ams it’s always a fight that sometimes gets all of us killed
damm i seen a solo walk up to our ltv and he sent a request to join our squad but my gunner mowed him down🤦♂️
One thing to keep in mind when asking for friendly players, use your spotting wheel to request to join team if you’re close enough and the request will pop up into the center of their screen. If you only ask using prox chat and don’t get a response, it’s either no mic (rarely) or they’re xbox or psn players in a party chat without a push to talk option and no ability to hear the prox chat without pausing to change their chat - leaving themselves incredibly vulnerable for several seconds. So if you’re in prox chat range, also request to join and keep spamming it. It’s not a guarantee to join by any means, but it does increase your chances. Food for thought.
I've experienced about 70% of players not using mic lately. I will often have 2 teammates not on open mic. Drives me friggin crazy.
I play solo psn I can confirm this
This is what we do, we're on xbox party chat as in game chat is just not as good and often fucks up for one guy, we spam invites and requests when in range,
PS5 Player here, we're typically in our own party chat so we send invites to join teams. We can't hear prox chat for the most part.
@@cwb124Even when guys use mics they don't actually use it. I'll be doing call outs and trying to talk to guys but they just don't respond or suddenly it clicks five minutes later and they are like, "Oh, yeah! I do want that! Hold on! My bad! I didn't hear you at first!" Or some shit and I'm like, "Maybe if you weren't playing music or literally playing your game inside a trash can next to a busy New York city highway, you might could hear me?" They use mics just to hot mic games or play music. Shit is annoying. It's so weird for me too because I get guys telling me my mic is perfect and we have actual conversations but next game people with mics go whole games ignoring me and pretending like they can't hear me. I hate when I'm trying to give someone the loot they need and they literally won't pick it up. Even when I'm tagging and pinging it with the ping button for the map, right at their bloody feet, they are oblivious to it. I know you can't mute mics either so wtf are they doing? Tuning it all out?
A lot of us solo’s don’t want to go against other people. We/I will but would rather team up or just continue doing our own thing.
so be on a team and go do your own thing and not be apart of a team sweet....
@@b0begn0pseverything you suggested is wrong on many levels, including grammatical ones.
@@b0begn0psNot how it works little bro
@@lamefuck621 uh ya at the main menu select party. even if you are apart of a party doesnt mean you have to follow them around. I have had plenty of people go do their own thing.
@@el.aye.bee.4477 Yes i agree that people shouldn't be on a team, if they don't want to be a team player.
I hate the toxicity that is in dmz suddenly. everyone will shoot you then taunt you. I just want to be friendly
Yeah all the Warzone players realized they can just play DMZ and it’s easier to kill people just doing missions, it’s crazy how that started happening literally over night
Suddenly? Were you previously unfamiliar with the COD player base? If it can devolve to a toxic shit show, it will with these people, very predictable. Whatever asshole came up with this whole "assimilation" (i.e. make teaming a fucking feature) feature was certainly unfamiliar with them.
What's worse is there's no way to plead for help if you're playing solo.
I was at a exfill didn't want to fight for final and I didn't shoot but the ai did and they kill me and saying I was trash and why I shoot when they said why I didn't accept there invite I never got one and I didn't shoot
its not toxicity to just kill operators, its a shooter game.
Once you've been screwed enough the urge to give it back is almost impossible to resist
I find most times when I spawn with random players that they nearly always want to go pvp so I'm left with doing missions solo which leaves me dealing with players hunting me while I'm trying to get missions done and when I try to talk most either have proxy turned off or just throw insults my way. Though these videos have been a godsend for me when I solo.
Main issue is the lack of incentives to actually do the missions besides being a Completionist or for the extra slots
Rewards for the higher tier missions especially are super lackluster for something that takes so much effort to get
I hate it when you have that one random team mate that runs off and gets downed on the other side of the map and expects you to come res them. all just for him to run off again or leave the match right before you get up him lol
@@z-uwu4687 The extra slots are HUGE though.
A lot more people shooting on sight and far less talking at all until you kill them. We've run into this a lot lately.
We've had dozens of encounters with no prox talkers until you down or kill them and suddenly their mics work and they want to be friends, we've simply moved to "kill it if it moves."
People rarely join... So i turned into one of these who shot before they talk.
Simply because i prefer to be the shooter then the one who lays on the ground.
...if their 3rd act passive after i killed already 2, then they can still join 😇
Had this in my run solo of Al-Mazrah. Full killed me and one of they said, “Oh… I feel bad” that’s fucking BS imo. Why would you feel bad if you full killed someone without question? The guy apologized too late.
@@FYou-uf7td Same here. Rather down u and u plea for help/I invite than me getting downed first 😂
I love how the AI spawns out of nowhere and thirsts you from the back😑😕
I simply cannot laugh hard enough at the truth in this comment...!!!🤣😁🤣😔
Good times
@@JustinRose5629 masochist
@@user-zd3iz3xx6k how, why are you just calling people that.
My holes are sore from the AI
Came here to say "GOOD!". It's CoD is a PvP game first and foremost where you can optionally be cooperative in DMZ.. The amount of times we'll run into guys .. during a HUNT contract and the other team goes "friendly friendly" and then proceed to get properly abusive in chat because we didn't instantly become besties is hilarious to me. The sheer comedy of "I'm friendly" followed 2ms later by the so called friendlies screaming "f yr momma" is honestly the source of endless entertainment
I’ve been living by what I call the golden rule of DMZ. ‘Shoot first, team up later.’ After all the people shouting “friendly friendly” who are just baiting started to happen, I now shoot first every time. I’ll happy let people assimilate when they plea, or if we’re in a fight and they ask. But I just don’t trust anyone anymore. However if people came at me like Stod and Westie did at the start of this, no line of sight calling wanna team up, I would accept rather than fight.
I’m with you my teams come out of fire fights. A lot of us solo’s don’t want to go against other people. We will but would rather team up or just continue doing our own thing.
That is a game ender for solo players. There is no plea function for solos. It’s an automatic team wipe. Super lame approach to playing.
@@ero1220 I play solo often, and have also been in 3 man squads where we played poorly and were wiped by a solo ( who didn't want to join us). There's all sides to the argument. But I do think the devs need to add plea for solo. I've died many times as a solo calling to join and then their 3rd teammate who's not onboard with me joining guns me down while my guard is down while I'm interacting with their TMs trying to join. I've died more ways like this, than I have been able to join up.
When I play solo I avoid everyone, because I'm nearly always killed instantly, even when hiding and saying 'hey guys can I squad up'. I just don't trust anyone, because more and more people are coming from warzone whose main objective is kill.
When your solo you can't plea. That's why I try to be friendly. Hardly ever works
Still wish the system worked for solo. At least give people a 1 chance to ask for join instead of insta squad eliminating. Make it like a 1 min timer if you're solo or squad wiped.
There was almost a complete 180 in terms of players being friendly until Monday. The start of the season, people were in prox chat, talking to each other and lots of people joining squads. Then it's like a switch flipped and nearly everybody I've come across has been hostile.
It’s absolute torture in comparison to last season. All the early game missions feel more complex and take some level of rng to complete. Loot may be easier to come across but that just makes the entire map turn into a scrim lobby where you can’t get anything done :(
Everyone can’t extract dude
Ive been spending the past 4 days looking for an IFAK
@@StiffBlanketProductionsjust found randomly in the first building i went into this morning, was searching every med box i could for 4 hours last night
@The Cookie Legend two green tents across the street from the hospital that is just south of Rohan oil. You're welcome
There's a gas station right next to the hospital. You can't miss it
@@VincentKiserGaming if you go to the hospital near Rohan Oil and Quarry, you’ll find loads of them. Bandages as well.
DMZ has 3 kinds of people
The guys who try to make friends.
The paranoid guys or people with trust issues.
And the people who shoot at any movement.
I'm actually the three of them lmao
Shoot first, ask later
I'm the three to be honest and I mostly die because of the 1st ... I won't shoot and want to be friend and boom, I'm down
If I come face to face with a player I will shoot but If I see them from far I leave them alone. will ask if they want to join if they are close by. Some people just go DMZ for hunting players, which I think sucks
Went from feral AI to feral players now.
How it should be
But damn people are aggressive now. I think it’s for many reasons , one being the meta game isn’t good enough so people are getting their kicks from PvP. I also think it’s because ashika island has made it much easier to regain, so losing your stuff really has minimal consequences. Jump into ashika with a stronghold key card and off you go.
Season 1 DMZ was really good, the AI was too annoying but it didnt stop me from playing. Season 2 started, I saw no change to the AI, still too OP for solo, still respawn out of nowhere, still shoots through walls. So I play just ONE game and I leave it there. Im having more fun playing Resurgence...and that comes from a player that didnt play Rebirth on WZ1 a lot. Im a Plunder player, I like to level up stuf and things like that, just chill. I dont know if Im playing DMZ again, its not solo friendly. I was hoping they fix that on S2, but they didnt. Waiting for Plunder on S3 now, while I play Resurgence without pressure. Im even getting some wins LOL.
Can't wait for plunder
Had a friendly interaction on Ashika yesterday, our trio had looted the intel in the Underground Waterway and as we were clearing out other AI another Trio came down. They didn't know where it was (was looking in the dead drop instead of the container) and as we were watching one of my team's sniper glints gave us away. We downed two, they downed us, then we called a cease-fire an offered to team up and do the mission together.
We then had a team of six, went and got the weapon case and exfilled. Was nice to work together and not insta-murder everyone. I'm happy to be peaceful but if they start to shoot then it's weapons hot. I'll aways try and get people up if they ask for help, but sometimes they disconnect before I get to them :(
I had an interaction where I joined an enemy team and then I killed both of my previous teammates by assasinatiom
@@MUTE-ETUM haha, jesus. I hope your teammates weren't your IRL friends...
@@tombull89 they weren’t 😂
As a solo player I've been killed like 5 times by a 3 man teams that don't want to team up while im carrying the weapons case . I've also beamed a couple of teams from the back with the m13b and im not regretting it . There is nothing more frustrating than regaining for 16 mins and soloing the entire castle to just get beamed by a 3 man team as soon as you leave
I think you should only solo if you have the skill to confidently solo a squad
I'm not sure what you expect to happen trying to solo the weapons case. It's basically a most wanted contract
i was about to say what the comments above me said, i just recommend you going solo Q if you're trying to get the weapons case, because dropping solo is a death sentence, especially more when going for a weapon case
You shouldn't play solo if your not good enough to
@@Ccubed92 I'd like to see you solo a 3 man team while you are carrying the case
It’s been a weekend of pain. Earlier a team sat on my team mate’s body for almost 8 minutes then pretended to exfil in order to come back for us at another exfil. It ended up being a 3rd party cluster fight and no one got out. This mindless pvp is making DMZ pointless.
Friend and me have a rule, shoot 1st ask questions later. We gave up on being friendly after multiple deaths where people just want us dead even those who said friendly, we dont accept people pleading for help after the fact or any crying in chat that they are on a quest.
So far in season two we have met only two guys who actually didnt shoot at us while saying friendly.
People rather miss the last extract than to join up
DMZ is 100% PvP Now.. (Everyone Shoots on Sight)
Bro, it's been that way since the beginning. The tools they have in-game to try and communicate with others are dismal.
You can voice and text chat. What more tools do you need?
Had a game last night that 1000% felt like week 1 of DMZ. Easy squad up and we let a small group go as we drove past on our way to exfile. It was great!
I have to say, maybe the reason some people don’t squad up with you, is that they don’t know how.
Also invitations you need to be closer than prox chat, just because you pick up prox chat does not mean they are getting the invites.
They were in a squad of 5 so they must know.
That said, the names were not English, so it's likely they don't even understand what they're saying lol
Earlier today a friend and I were duoing and a guy came into the street below us yelling "friendly, friendly!" And once we hopped down to talk to him he was like "RUN RUN! My teammate doesn't speak English and keeps killing everyone!" As soon as he got the words outta his mouth the other one starts lighting us up. We shoot and kill him since its a 2v1 and the first guy just watched, we added him to the group, and then we all finished some missions lol. It was a weird encounter. Most people have been KOS but when the people talk and interact it makes some fun interactions.
1:32 lmao the jump into the water
I was at the smuggling tunnels and got a team mate wants to join, turned around and a guy was just there but jumping up and down. I didn’t realise at first but didn’t shoot, then figured out how to accept it and then we did the tunnels with tactical cams. Saved me loads of time and was good fun
I'm still giving everyone a chance to not shoot, a lot do, but am still getting some friendly interactions. The amount of time we give for a friendly response is definitely a lot shorter now, and we put a number of strategies in play to mitigate a false a response.
It’s funny as now I’m sceptical of people asking to be revived as a trap. Shoot or be shot is starting to become the standard now :(
@@dowele2431 if I'm solo (which is quite often as I refuse to squad fill) and I'm fairly confident I've got the drop on a squad, I'll kill them but leave 1 in a downed state, then request invite to squad, leaving them no choice. Won't always stay with them, but at least I then have the opportunity to plead as long as they're still in the game. Bit like collecting a 1up
I’m really enjoying the narrative. BUT mostly I’m enjoying watching a Stod having FUN. A happy Stod makes me happy.
The evolution of players in DMZ is somewhat fascinating. I wonder if we have reached the end of the evolving, I do not think so.
That's something my duo mate and I noticed in dmz but it depends so much on the time, we basically search people and ask if they want to help us with the third weapon slot quest with the story Mission unfortunately I did not work out yet probably the best case you can have is if the enemy team has the same quest so you can do it together.
I was running solo the other day & was chased by a team of three. When they finally caught up to me, they told me “join our team or we’re gonna kill you” 😂. I made new friends that day
That guy was probably doing the mission where you need to exfil with 6-7 killstreaks.
Especially on Askika Island. We were on there doing a mission and they said we are friendly and waited to get in position and then teamed up with another group and downed us because they wanted the item, we were trying to put in a container to get credit for a mission.
I tried being a friendly player for ages.
But even i have my limit.
I do shoot on sight now.
Just not worth the risk.
Shoot first, dont ask questions later.
Same. I don't generally accept pleads for help anymore either, generally end up getting shafted. I'll avoid players where possible, offer joins squads if I'm solo, but otherwise its shoot to kill, loot + leave. I hate that it's become that way, but hey ho.
@Tony i got hunted by two players the other week. They shot first, but by the grace of luck, i managed to kill them both.
Then they pleaded for help. I was like yeah....nope!!
I call out "Friendly! Friendly!" But if you shoot me or my partner then that's it. Yet they still act surprised why we shoot them back. Like no dude, I gave you a chance and you decided your fate. I've met many kind players that don't wanna group but I at least show some kindness by giving them extra self-rez or 3 plates I have on me and then go on my way. I just wish them luck and not to die in the match.
Last time I yelled friendly, A team of 5said but we are not… lol
After the update the proximity chat sound will be much lower or neglectable if you are far away from them. So must of the time I will use text chat when we are far away but noticed them.
Fr and the tier 5 quest encourage that and as a new player I hate it i got lucky once to find a very friendly team but generally it sucks I got chased by a team all the way to extract and I was solo for no reason I never shot a single shot towards them I like that there are players like you who don't just shoot on sight
Haha this video was so fun too watch thanks guys. Happy end with alot of gifts. Stodeh thought take my revive pistol other guy thought take all my killstreaks 🤣
We came across a team near Sattiq.... after an initial exchange and 1/2 dead on each side we opened a discussion.... agreed to go on our on way ...(they were doing the mission where you have to kill the chemist with the gun from the drop) ..later on we came across a team and knocked some, they said they were just completing the chemist quest...so we let them go. On the other hand, whilst doing Caved In quest...player above us, we started a convo ..said we were happy to team up to get him the quest... he said "he'd ask his team mates"... what he meant was, keep us there till they could surround us and go for the kill.. just felt cheap.
I was trying my first attempt at extracting with the weapons case ( I’m a bellow average skilled solo player) about 30 minutes ago, when I heard a random voice say “hey” as I drove past a building. Upon investigation, I discovered that it was a fellow solo player who was scouting near the jug.
This very kind person said “here” and gave me a three-plate vest and a self-revive.
Thanks to him I was able to kill the jug and grab the case.😊
I was killed immediately at the exfill by a squad of four, even after making it clear that I did not want to fight.🙃
The 4 man clearly wanted to lol
@@coryrohrbaugh1208 I think you’re right lol
A third of my interactions are friendly, a third are sweaty and hostile, and a third are either braindead or we pass by with no conflict.
“We gave them how much opportunity?” Curious to see that quantified
0 was the answer
@@kingpurest6279 counted 5
Don't bro
Was swimming towards the waterways to do the harddrive mission, and started getting shot. It was already too late a time, so just wrote "Pls stop shooting. We just want to do this quest, then got work in the morning". They replied "Were you in the water?". We said "yep". They replied "kk". Then we went on with it...
Eastern European servers are friendlier you see 😆
Hahaha, Relatable, one of my last DMZ deployments I was like "can we be friends and join up", and then they shot back
This weekend was my first time playing DMZ and I admit, I did kill a few players while exploring. I didn't know any better, and hey they got revenge. Now I know how things work I'll probably stick to myself and/or try to make peace.
Big congrats on getting to 600k Stod!!
Wish there was a "DMZ Joint Forces" mode where players could assist, or ignore other players without risk of pvp. A mode for those that simply want to complete their contracts and enhance their gear while playing solo and with friends.
Even implementing a DMZ 'Passive Mode' would suffice.
I'm finding this to be the case more and more. Missions aside that require a player kill for completion, so many teams will and do PVP for the hell of it. Tried many times to request join, or make it clear I'm not gonna engage and still get hunted or gunned down, even when solo by 3/4 man teams. AI only map would be nice as an option. 🤔 Great video content as always Stodeh 👍
I tried DMZ as a solo player.. it was nuts, just when I thought I was doing well.. some random teams would take me out. I just gave up on it. 🤷🏽♂️
You should be solo if your not good
option to make a squad in the beginning...
Omg the ending!! The dude had like 6 kill streks!!! Wtf. Fair play for u two for being nice
i had one team let me join when i had the weapon case and we ended up getting hunted down and barely survive to exfil
Found this very evident towards the end of season 1 and in to 2 - all the higher level missions seemed to be PVP requirements which just ruined the fun interactions you could have with other players. Then the exfil campers started appearing.
They’ve got warzone for PVP, DMZ was such a good opportunity for positive interactions with other players but infinity ward just wants to create a hostile player base rather than teaming up or letting solo’s do their thing.
I used to solo to complete missions but it now forces you to attack other players on sighting as if you don’t, they just murder you.
If I'm with a random team, I try to keep my distance as much as possible, 50m to 100m roughly. If I get caught, I can plead out before they get found and killed, I still have get luck getting picked up in a plead. If they get attacked, I have time to assess the situation from a safe distance.
If its a team of people I know, well...they'll regret finding us 😂
Not gunna lie, I join DMZ with the intent of looking for other squads. When I join a map, everything on it is mine. And I'll die trying to stop you from robbing me!
not to start a bad convo but i like to point out how in the first cod campaign for mw1 when you're in that on london mission when u first play as gaz they do a rule where the enemy/terrorists have to shoot first before gaz's team shoots, thats why he joins price, and u guys do the same thing, pretty cool ngll
I've actually had my last 3 deployments wind up teaming up with randoms and rolling around 4 and 5 man teams, so they're are still some decent people out there just not very many these days
To be fair, the NPC in DMZ is crazy over powered and shoot as soon as they see you so a lot of times when you’re running around, you shoot because you’re thinking they’re an NPC before realizing it’s an actual player.
It’d be nice if they had a PvE only mode
not with the AI as they currently are. Clear an area out? SIKE BITCH WE GONNA SPAWN IN BEHIND YOU. Being able to lock onto you from miles away, spot you from miles away...it needs a bit of work before it's a pure PVE mode.
No. Love dmz the way it is. Pvp and pve is the whole mode. It's literally made for that.
@@usafjonesy Eh, Tarkov plays fine with the PvE-only mod
@@daedalus6433 that's tarkov, the is DMZ. Dmz is specifically made for this.
I'd like to take it a step further and remove the AI and players entirely.
I think 100% PvP is not quite correct. But there are so many, maybe too many (?), more engagements in DMZ. I do think there has to be an element of risk of PvP now though to keep the game engaging.
Eh. I would play an entirely PvE version with the current busted AI to compensate.
@@daedalus6433 Agreed. Just quit playing yesterday after I got my second insured slot. I prefer having OP bots over hostile players any day.
Maybe just enable PVP when a hunt contract is activated or after say 15/20 mins or when the radiation starts spreading (if at all), however I think it would still be better if there was a solo version. There's nothing difficult or cool about killing a solo in the back by a 3 man team when you have the jump on them. Yes I am almost always THAT solo person who has no chance whatsoever as I'm dead before I can even turn around or run. The game needs balance esp with psycho bots running around, (and I am actually ok with them as they are)
the problem is it is way to easy to get your stuff back & regain - pvp should be a risk people have to think about. DMZ is nothing more than BR with extra steps.
DMZ is full of war zone players who haven't even finish their first mission of ping 5 enemies running around just killing players because they are dogs hit at actually full pvp games
I think DMZ needs the pvp element & its still a pvp game mode but at this point it really isn't any different then the standard warzone
the biggest thing is they need a solos only lobby - never mind the advantage of a 3v1(or a 6 man team which seems more and more common vs a solo) but when you have a 3 stack going against a solo with a one plate its just fun of either party. there's no challenge for the 3 stack 3 plate team and its pointless to play for the solo one plate
AI sucks but its whatever - to be expected but putting solo & 3 stacks in the same lobby with how easy it is to get stuff just makes the game pointless and unenjoyable
@@daedalus6433 it wouldn't be a huge point to play if your only playing against ai at that point single players games are meant for you
Even when you're screaming friendly into your mic....guns blazing.
I suspect part of this is how they’ve changed the prox chat volumes. We managed to team up w a group but it was chaos. The last remaining player said he hadn’t heard prox chat.
I don't always kill on sight but usually when I'm with my 3 man we get shot at first so we just unload back. The funniest part is if we win (I'm humble there's always a better player) they always request to join.
Usually as a solo when I announce I'm a solo 1 of the 3+ feel bad and invite me or don't shoot. I will say getting my third slot was tough doing the extract trackers from tier 3 crown. I joined 3 different teams spent 3 self revives died twice avoided the lobby screen by miracles as a solo atleast twice after being knocked by players. Honestly felt like a Micheal bay scene.
I think a big issue with the fact people don’t respond is that game chat doesn’t work if you’re on console and in a team with friends. I have this issue and unfortunately as much as I try and avoid pvp, I feel that due to the fact me or my teammate cannot hear Game chat Teams assume we are not listening and just wanting a shootout.
(If anyone knows how to resolve this issue please let me know as I have tried everything I can possibly think of.)
I’m still upset that all the people from battle royale came and turned this from a friendly player base to some kind of PVP server. Also there are aimboters on ashika now.
You can't be mad it's meant for both lol can't cry about getting killed when it's objective for that to do
@@Ccubed92 yeah, I guess it’s just nostalgia talking lol
@@Ccubed92 when it first came out it was amazing.
Party coms. We don’t usually play with open coms…so naturally you need to engage if you can’t hear prox coms.
ah yes lately when i play DMZ solo, I usually get shot at trying to do Missions peacefully no Questions asked. I have a rule where anyone that shoots me 1st I'm fighting for my life. I do from time to time get invited to a squad helping out doing those hard missions in game. when i play solos in DMZ i have to keep my guard up a lot more now.
I love the intensity and non stop action. I gave squading up one chance. I was betrayed and now all of DMZ player base will pay
I still dont shoot on sight, but constantly get attacked by thirsty players
How did that last guy of the 5 man get pulled out of the ex-fil by his team? Is it because the team leader got irritated and quit or something?
I enjoy how the missions this season are a little more PvP focused. Everyone was always unfriendly last season anyways and it was frustrating to get wiped when trying to do simple collect and deposit missions. However, I learned the hard way last season to take no chances so my approach is to always down a player first and then ask if theyre friendly before finishing. If they are their team can pick them up or join us.
That was a horrible gift Westie 😂
Yo that intro when the enemy was self reviving and immediately runs into the water and dolphin dives into the water and you take him out was funny
I always make sure to send an invite or request an invite to join a squad. The real enemy are the demon AI’s 😂
If you sing "Why can't we be friends" people team up 90% of the time.
What a shooting experience already 😂
I actually have had a friendly interaction with players, about half an hour ago with my friend. Well, semi friendly. There was this group of players outside of a locked space that me and my friend were looting looking for us, so we just sat in there while we waited for them to open the door, since we were only a two man team. They ran in there and we killed them, but we let them join up afterwards, and we all exfiled together.
Did you get a weapon case?
Because I may of been the enemy team
@@Itsamyths No. We were in Quarry.
@@theartisticspartan4488 ahhh ok
Yep was running for exfil with no headset on so I couldn't talk. Guy was running my same route behind me. I turned around several times. Didn't fire. He didn't fire. Kept running for a few. Turned around and waited because I was uncomfortable with him being behind me. I started doing the universal symbol of friendly. Squating standing. He ran right up to me without firing. Then took me out. From now on I'm dieing or killing. No more trying to be friendly
See where you went wrong was. You did the “universal” friendly which cannot be trusted while you proceeded to let him get closer. Now making the other dude uncomfortable and sketching him out. Thinking you changed objective/course when you should’ve stuck to minding your business and keep running lol jk
@@user-br9nd1zq4o shoulda had my headset on. But my wife can tolerate me a little more if I am able to talk while playing. She hates me playing with a squad because I can't hear her and constantly mute my mic pull up one side and say huh? What did you say?
@@danlford I kinda feel that, I don’t wanna be on proxy chat yelling talking smack screaming going wild while some are sleeping 💬
Maybe find a compromise help her help you, get at least a game or two squading up no interruption haha
@@danlford people are random tho that’s why dmz is fun
I've noticed its much more hostile come Fri and calms back down come Monday, on the weekend i don't even bother to ask until I've downed someone.
This season has been rough, when I play I'm just trying to do my missions as solo/2 man and will get bodied by 3 man sweatlords or the broken AI, really isn't so fun for casuals so I treat everyone as hostile, but unless they shoot first I won't engage. If I wanted to PvP I'd go battle royal
It’s a pvp mode with missions. Just because your bad don’t cry about it. There’s literal contracts that are purely PVP.. it’s a PVP mode stop pretending it isn’t.
@@quoddeus2274 why do You have to be si hostile towards his opinion lmao
@@quoddeus2274 Unless you're the kind of person that can afford to play this game from the moment they wake up to when they decide to go to bed, then you're going to be bad at the game, because you're going to be playing against people that do play the game for 14 hours solid every day.
So it ain't so much being bad as it is being against people who haven't seen sunlight in the past 3 months, so there no need to be a dick about it.
@@PeterCaptainObvious if you are too stupid to play a fucking game to a sufficient level without playing 8 hours a day, then you have another issue and you are definitely my target audience. Congratulations you are a useless person.
I’d be pissed if I was the guy whose team pulled him out. Wild. Love watching y’all tho!
Ashika is 100% PvP.
Also a simple UX change to make proximity chat in the color GREEN might give a difference sense of other people's radio. Red looks threatening
5 man team, no plates, no revive, low ammo, Westie down, annoying AI, gas rapidly encroaching.....Stodeh 'ye ye ye it's ok'
Dmz is pokemon to me. Me and the lads go into a match we fight off squads and some plead then we invite them. Gotta weaken them to obtain them
I don't know who thought adding Bomb Drone to Warzone and DMZ was a good idea.
Gotten so many kills with that recently 😂
@@gameinthelifex It's basically a free kill if they arent full 3 plate, absolute cheese.
@@tannerhamilton6025 always shocks me when it actually works!
The chopper guy leaving was him not being party leader and the dead teamate leader leaving with party.
The worst isn't when they surprise kill you from nowhere its when you have the jump on them, and one of you goes to befriend them, and they are a bunch of murder hobos.
I would love to give players the choice at the start of the game to be pvp match or pve. Call it Rules of Engagement changes, ie friendly operators in the area vs enemy or neutral. The amount of thirsty warzies in dmz that think killing players is the point is changing the game. The problem is that after someone is betrayed while trying to be friendly, they feel almost justified getting "revenge" in the next game against teams that had nothing to do with it.
I’ve had more friendly team ups than ever the last few nights.
Great way to celebrate 600k, congrats 😁 #deathtoallscreensnipes
I played DMZ with just throwing knives and flash bangs. Had fun messing with people and taking their crap and either lexfilling with it or dropping it off somewhere. 😂
It's because there are so many assholes I literally got baited into having a guy join my team when I was playing solo and then his teammates killed me and he rejoined them right after. You can't trust anyone anymore.
Indeed, i've met several players that simply want to grief and ruin your missions' progress.
I was thinking that this could take the form of a Bounty system. If someone is hunting other players for no reason (unless it's for a contract or a mission), then you could place a bounty for his head. There would be a reward for extracting with his dog tags and, depending on his level of infraction, he could have several players in the lobby after him. Something similar to a indictment, from Dark Souls 1.
There could be an alert shown to people in the lobby, similar to the in-match events in Battle Royale. Or it could be something related to a trader system, where you'll appear in a lobby with that hunted player and his location marked, similar to a Hunt Squad Contract, then you'll get a blueprint, contraband, skins or money for extracting with his dog tags.
The Division does this. Too many player kills mean your area is highlighted as bounty. You’re a high stake.
I dont think the proximity chat works half the time now since the update
Been loving the videos come you do a tip and tricks video on the cave in mission coz iv been finding it really hard to do thanks big fan
I've had silent three man squads hunt me solo on Ashika when I have a one plate it's safe to say if you don't have someone talking to you over the mic shoot on sight.
Stodeh! Love your content! DMZ there is no friends anymore. I have been lured into scenarios with “friendship” and then been shot in the face so now I shoot first and friends later. 😅
I was Solo last night in al mazrah and a team let me join them (3 of) on the bridge in the city for an extract, great bunch!
I'm always friendly but over the last month or two people will claim friendly and shoot you anyway. Even if one guy on their team is serious about joining the other two will shoot you regardless. People claim, "I'm not taking any chances! People will lie!" As the excuse to fully kill you and conveniently forget, aka pretend, like they didn't know you can't join after being fully downed. Here's an example from a recent match.
Me and my team were pulling up to the police station north of marshlands in a boat. Buy station was out back but a team was there and they called out when they heard us on boat and at the same time as one guy was saying, "Let's be friendly bro! Let's team up!" The blue guy from their team pops over the rail and opens fire downing and killing yellow on my team and shooting at me as we docked. My green guy bailed off the boat and swam away underwater immediately but I dropped and killed the blue who opened fire at the same time as the original guy talking starts saying,
"What the Fuck man?! We wanted to join up! We were friendly!" They both pushed me together and I nearly downed one before they killed me but I told them exactly what they just did and they used that excuse I mentioned above. "Well, I've had plenty of people lie and say friendly just to shoot us so we were just playing it safe!"
I told them, "You mean you do the same shit you pretend like you hate? Because you literally said friendly at the same time as you opened fire on us." We argued a bit but they told us to plea so we could join, we did it but they wouldn't pick us up, instead they wanted my green teammate to come pick us up. Obviously because they wanted to kill him, but we argued about this before finally one guy joined our squad and started to rez us but after about five minutes of game wasted we all ended up on the same team except they stole everything from me and were lying about it.
Both my weapons, my grenades, self rez, money, even my dog tags. Even though they were still on the minimap dude was lying and saying he didn't take them. He instead said, "I don't know where your stuff went but I got you a backpack and a rpk! I bought you that bro! Aren't I nice?"
"You mean you bought it with my cash, you still have my dog tags. They are literally moving with you. Blue also has my taq, at least give me that back." But blue wasn't using mic anymore and kept moving away from me. I ended up having to go loot around and luckily found a 2 plate while their entire team got knocked at exfil. They were 5v3 and lost to a 3 man. I laughed and told them I shouldn't pick any of them up, as it would be karma but instead I took my gun back from blue and his sniper and looted everyone else before I rezzed them. Had a 3 plate, my taq, a sniper from a different dude, a self rez and a muni box I used to resupply.
I'm also tired of this shit though. People say friendly and shoot anyway and even recently I've had a few guys on my own team that will shoot opponents teammates even though one of them joined already. I had a guy do this yesterday and he got on mic talking about, "It's just a game! Relax! You're over reacting!" I told him,
"I'm over reacting because you killed guys that we were friendly with and obviously trying to join up? They didn't even open fire on you, you just lied and shot a guy." He tried to say he didn't trust them and didn't want to risk it but pretended to be surprised that we couldn't pick them up now even as he was rummaging through their bags. Me and the other two guys on the team now weren't happy about that and even pink was saying we should just leave him if he goes down. In the end we didn't but I've also seen guys who join our team and will immediately kill their own teammates. I've had that happen to me before as well.
Got into a fight where they downed one of my guys and they said they wanted to be friendly so let's team up, claimed my guy opened fire on them first. I never saw them aside from them pulling up in a car at first but I told them that was cool, I would join just let me finish rezzing my downed guy real quick so that way he won't bleed out and get kicked. My teammate that was still up then immediately switched teams and came downstairs where he knew we both were and I was rezzing and immediately shot me while I was still rezzing the other guy. The fucked up part was apparently you can join teams while bleeding out now so the down guy had swapped while I was still rezzing him and my rez was still going, so, I was technically rezzing their teammate. So my former teammate killed me and it teamwiped me immediately, even though I couldnt accept or go into the invite menu while rezzing. The other team realized what happened too and were pissed because I was the only one with a mic from my team and they just betrayed me, giving them two useless backstabbers with shit gear and no mics. Though I suppose one of them got my 3 plate and rez from it, I think the guy killed me because he wanted my crossbow, actually.
But I've seen other guys do this shit as well, accept an invite to immediately spray down their own team and claim, "they shot me first!" Like, that does happen, I've had that happen to me too, but this guy lied about it because there was only his gunshots happening.
I had a teammate the other day with me just the two of us and we ran into a two man team that wanted to join. Me and my teammate were right beside each other and he was using mic but ignoring it most of the time just hot mic his background the entire time but I told him we were going to join up with them twice, and mentioned directly I'm joining them, don't shoot me. What does he immediately do when I accepted the invite? Tried to headshot me with a sniper. I literally had 1hp because I was right beside him when it happened so I dumped my rpk to his face and told him he was a dumbass.
"It didn't have to be this way" as he mowes down enemy players 🤣🤣
I always thought it was shoot on sight I never for once thought the cod community would be "nice".
