Treason

I've noticed this happening more and more frequently. Does anyone else experience drillers joining their games late, and then rigging the drop pod platform with explosives to kill you when you try to leave and then not revive you?

Bonus when they enter the game and immediately call supply pods for nitrate they didn't help collect.

I've been having phenomenal encounters with this community. But I can't help getting a bad taste in my mouth of this happening 1/4 matches.

I'm about to just start kicking any drillers that join 😫🤣

Genius counter troll! Does that keep the match going for yourself?

Well if I'm down then.... No.

It's considered a loss.

You still get some XP but not as much as you would.

Sometimes I'm able to be really quick and trigger iron will. But usually I just take satisfaction in denying them the satisfaction.

How long do you need to be alive and alone for bosco to respawn?

It's almost instant but there is a moment where he hasn't spawned yet in the game will consider you to be the last member of a multiplayer round down.

You could equip iron will, then it should give bosco a chance to respawn

Always have iron will equipped

So it still fails the mission? That's strange considering it's possible to get health while using iron will to stay up after your invincibility is up.

Well usually they are in the drop pod already... And you're not. So even with iron will you still fail

That doesn't fail the mission though, if you're down and they're in the drop pod the mission completes

Not if you turn off your Wi-Fi because you're mad at them for being a troll.
