1. Time - i don't have the time nor care to find a team. I want to login and play.

The answer CCP says is the squad finder - its bullshit. The squad finder is full of people who others do not want to team with. Whether they be noobs, annoying kids, or pricks who play music in their mics. These are the kind you find in the squad finder.

2. Enjoyment - i don't want to play with losers who need to squad up or q-sync or Proto stomp to be successful. These people are losers who can't cut it in other FPS games and seek to play dust because SP is their crutch, and superior gear is the only way for them to be competitive. They are just losers who need every advantage dust 514 provides them with because CoD and BF4 makes them cry.
Its a major problem as a solo, you see nothing but these losers. Just know every time you see a squad that you are better than them, you don't need their scanners or their 7 tanks or other crutches these players use.

The problem isn't so much noobs on your team, every team will have noobs. The problem is unbalanced matchmaking which places noobs in games where they have no chance to even kill someone n Proto gear. Terrible teammates are just more frequent, but it just means you're more likely to lose a match (which isn't important) but has no impact on your enjoyment.

3. Stay to the outside, use drop links to keep you map positioning over your idiot teammates who all want to spawn closest to the front lines and certain death as possible.

Remember there's nothing wrong with having a 28/4 game followed by a 12/14 game. Play for enjoyment and remember only pricks and scrubs need a squad because they can't hack it as a solo.

I already have Amarr Assault to level three.

Then why did you say you only have 1 infantry suit? Misinfo man misinfo.

Oops.

I meant one Proto infantry suit.

Pfft Proto is for PCs which you won't be doing alone. You never need proto in pubs, and the only times it may make a difference (When you are fighting double stacked proto squads) it's unlikely the rest of your disorganized team will make it just ending in you losing a lot of isk in proto gear. ADV is good enough for pubs.

Well, I used to do a little bit of PC, so having a Proto infantry role was necessary.

I will not snipe. I find it very ******* boring, and a waste of my time.

How the hell do you do this?

I used to run in squads a lot, and this is a huge change for me. How do you all cope with the terrible team mates? When you're the only one trying, or the only one that's even any good on your entire team?!

I need help.

dont go negative in pc and dont suck at the game

If the first button you press in a match isn't the d-pad "up", you're doing it wrong.

Looks like I hit a problem.

Come back to FA?

U tell yourself
Just like batman...lets do this

I disagree. It shouldn't matter who it is on the other team, or who is on your team. Your tactics, strategy, and fighting style should be a large deciding factor in the battle. When i'm on the battlefield none of you make me stop being assault to go snipe, or do something safer out of fear of any of you. My job, role, and task on the battlefield stays the same regardless of what your wearing, firing, or doing. If you and your squad are solid you should move the shift of battle, win or loose.

You can adjust your strategy to what is needed at the time, but deciding not to assist your squad or team in battle at all is cowardly. Want for others what you want for yourself. If you want help from the other team members, give that help. Your not helping me at charlie by deciding to abandon the assault to go snipe at delta?! Two rifles firing at a target are better than one. Bring a compact nanohive, a needle(preferably 50% or more), or a rep tool. Anything is better than nothing?! More ammo is always a good thing.

Anyone who has had the oppurtunity to fight with me or against me knows i will never back down. Bring on your proto suit, tanks, fotm, etc. Threaten me with hunting me down, making me a target, and "stomping my scrub ***"?! It's a video game!!! Your going to die, but not in real life! Stop padding your k/dr. Don't try so hard to make it look like your good, and actually be good! Players respect your gangsta in battle not some number on a board, or atleast thats the way i see it. Guys can tell me all day that someone is a beast, but until i see it he just a target. What you did a week ago don't scare me today. Full q sincs on the other side of whoever doesn't make me back down. I'm gone get my 1,000 wp's!

You can know what i run, but stopping me is a totally different fight altogether. Lag switches, proto stomping, tanks, dropships, attack dogs, jesus, thor, the persian army, i don't care they gone all know i was there! Stop being cowards and fight! 6 guys can't proto stomp a full fighting squad of 16 without loosing money. If you notice proto stompers like to single out targets, and don't wanna fight more than one at a time. They can be forced into uncomfortable situations by giving your teammate BACKUP! I see them all the time leave heated areas to go pick off loners at a CRU, outside points, or camping a drop uplink. They can take out a solo guys quickly while they're damaged modded out, but will leave bravo if they die more than twice against an organized 3 man fire team. Don't let them scare you with that black suit.

KILL THEM AND THEY WILL RESPECT YOU!

I like your spunk, but it can be advantageous to mix it up a bit lol. Square pegs will never fit in the circular hole.

How do I do this?
Scouts. Scouts are best alone or in pairs.

How do I cope with ****** teammates?
I start focusing on hacking and placing uplinks. More often then not, the worse my team is, the more **** there is for me to hack and the more WP I can get from uplinks.

Unfortunately, farming WP in public matches and not trying for the objective is frowned upon by certain people in the Dust community.

How is hacking and placing uplinks not trying for the objective?

I may not be sprinting at it like a dumbass, but I'm putting in good spawn points, hacking CRUs, and HACKING UNGUARDED OBJECTIVES.

More often then not, I still contribute more than you useless frontliners who've never heard of defense.

Forget the Win/Losses just the kills.
Use a Scanner/Dampen your suits.

Run 1 High Alpha +1Long Range Weapon
Never take on a wolfpack, even if they don't see you, try to avoid fights with more than 2 guys at a time.
Focus on reps, not on EHP, if you do well you won't need either.
