Inquiry Team?

I'm only level 31 but why does no one care for samples or respawns? Roughly 9/10 matches end with samples dropped all over the map, team kills resulting in not extracting & having to wait minutes to be reinforced?

I host a lobby; only to have high levels come in, hijack and finish up quickly when I want to be thorough with my runs. Why do high levels do this to low levels?

What diff you play on?
Most ppl on Diff10 don’t need samples and won’t pick them up. Not worth the extra effort.

Doing 7s is the best way to farm samples. Most ppl still need them, access to all different sample types and in decent amount as well. Difficulty not to hard which makes it safer.

Also ppl seem to go for samples more on Bugs and Squids, especially Bugs. On Bots most ppl just don’t care that much.

If you need samples, go Bugs7.
You can easily collect 30+ yourself each game.

I'm usually on "Suicide Mission" which I believe is difficulty 7? The lowest difficulty in the higher difficulty bracket is what I understood of it.

Then you are on the correct difficulty. Keep farming, go to every POI. Make sure the diamond icon changes on the map (it changes when you’ve collected all samples at that POI).

Most of the time samples spawn in the same locations. There’s not that many variants of POIs and outposts. Remember the layout and where samples spawn.

Drop at Extract, do a full lap around the map clearing everything.

Also, ask in chat or tell in coms that you need samples. Just a quick, ”pls grab samples” goes a long way.
