Gah, it really sucks to hear that people don't know how to comm in your games. I've been in plenty of Gold/Plat games solo where people are communicating, hyping up teammates when they get frags and being super rad. I wish that were a regular occurrence for people who don't have a consistent team to play with.
Are any of you in the
R6 Discord[discord.gg] by chance? If you're looking for comms and people that care about their rank and want to grind elo, that's definitely the place for you to go. I know I advertise it a lot, but I really want players to use that if they're running into issues, unable to find friends to play with, etc. We're a community, so we need to be helping each other out, I think.
