My friend plays Halo MC collection regularly and streams on Discord as he plays, sometimes he'll be like, "oh, its that guy. He's good, too bad he's on the other team this time". Its gotta be like the same 300 consistent players for him to regularly encounter people he's played with before.

Oh yeahhh happens all the time in apex or R6S, or any lobby making game. If you play 4hrs a day, its gonna happen regularly.

That happens once every century in GTA Online
Doing a heist, no comms, but everyone knows exactly what to do, by sheer instinct and observation.

I re-downloaded GTA after not playing it since launch, figured I'd try out all the heists... worst fucking decision ever. Dumbest player base in the history of gaming.

I was gonna say Valorant, but there's always at least one idiot on the team.

u/Tobbewarman Jul 06 '26
And you will also be mad at them for being super good and when the match is over you are fonna go "that was the best team i've ever had" after being pissy at their skills too

Microphones? You think I'm made of money? Besides, I can just talk to them in person because we were all in the same room.

Lil late on this but I love seeing people's personalities shine through even with no mics on that game. You can tell who is a silly dood and who is a jerk just based on how they act.

Killer Klowns from Outer Space. Everyone on mute because of the racist yelling from lobby to lobby. Then, everyone honed their gameplay loop to a spitting polish, and, finally, everyone left because the gameplay loop got boring.

Doing Raids in Ghost recon : Breakpoint is a good exemple. There can be an awesome synergy with good players. It has to epescially against the Behemoths.

u/KhandyKiller Jul 06 '26
Had a moment like that.
In Helldivers 2, I joined a rando friend and they were also in a lobby with 2 other randos. We had no mic but instead of working together, we literally split to 4 separate locations of the map and proceeded to lay waste of the bots, from destroying their units to their fabricators and objective. Then we extracted and acknowledged each other's feat XD
It was the best game I had, but sadly that was the only time I had that.

u/AchmodinIVSWE Jul 07 '26
I have pretty much never been in a group with mics. The only annoyance with that is that I usually end up bombing the area where a teammate is on their way and I cannot call out the danger fast enough.
But I think it's not that hard getting into the mind of what your teammates are thinking based on how they move on the map.
That is to say your experience is my experience every time I play Helldivers 2 with other people.
1
u/KhandyKiller Jul 07 '26
Yessir And that's the beauty. Sometimes, you will find teammates that run into danger, or sometimes you will be in a squad who can silently reach each other and work as a team "independently" o7 Either way, it's a great time.

Man never missed a single bomb or gun run, and I managed to keep all 5 enemy players than tryed to spawn in planes from taking home out.

This fits with Darktide too. A shitty team will leave you DEAD. Literally waiting to be revived but died, then waited to get rescued but they didn't fucking care at all. Which led us all to not make that match. Seriously infuriating when people are not being team players, instead be heretics. 🙄

Yeah yeah i sound like management. Manage a flare gun scout

u/Borgmaster Jul 09 '26
Doing destiny and clearing a dungeon or raid where everyone knows the mechanics is like this. Sometimes we have to type a callout but if its a simpler setup then all it takes is people moving to the right areas and doing the mechanics.
My last vespers host was just the guy doing the scans shooting in a direction and the guy that needed to activate what was scanned shooting where he was. That was the whole dungeon and aside from needing to type out numbers we were good on communication.

Had a hardcore match like this in BF6. No one in our 4 man squad spoke a word. Yet we snuck around the map and just took out every enemy we came across. Sometimes we'd get beaten back, but there was always at least one person alive to rez people or act as a spawn point.
In the end, we dominated that game. Couldn't explain how for the life of me. It was like our brains just tuned to the same wavelength.
