    One thing to keep in mind when asking for friendly players, use your spotting wheel to request to join team if you’re close enough and the request will pop up into the center of their screen. If you only ask using prox chat and don’t get a response, it’s either no mic (rarely) or they’re xbox or psn players in a party chat without a push to talk option and no ability to hear the prox chat without pausing to change their chat - leaving themselves incredibly vulnerable for several seconds. So if you’re in prox chat range, also request to join and keep spamming it. It’s not a guarantee to join by any means, but it does increase your chances. Food for thought.

I didn't hear you at first!" Or some shit and I'm like, "Maybe if you weren't playing music or literally playing your game inside a trash can next to a busy New York city highway, you might could hear me?" They use mics just to hot mic games or play music. Shit is annoying. It's so weird for me too because I get guys telling me my mic is perfect and we have actual conversations but next game people with mics go whole games ignoring me and pretending like they can't hear me. I hate when I'm trying to give someone the loot they need and they literally won't pick it up. Even when I'm tagging and pinging it with the ping button for the map, right at their bloody feet, they are oblivious to it. I know you can't mute mics either so wtf are they doing?

    I never ever went on prox chat in s1 cos I was scared of giving away my squads tactics but this season I've had tons of amazing interactions from going on prox chat and asking to team. Gotten myself killed just as many times doing that too. A lot of people clearly have prox chat turned off and don't even hear you asking to extract together or whatever, but I've had squads notice I'm solo when I haven't noticed them, not shoot at me, and then they invite me and we roll together.
    But on Ashika I've also gone around hunting people down and trying to make 6 stacks for that purpose. That's part of the joy of DMZ, there are no rules with any of that, and you never know how people are going to act or respond. It's one of my favourite things about it.

I’ll happy let people assimilate when they plea, or if we’re in a fight and they ask. But I just don’t trust anyone anymore.

I've died many times as a solo calling to join and then their 3rd teammate who's not onboard with me joining guns me down while my guard is down while I'm interacting with their TMs trying to join. I've died more ways like this, than I have been able to join up.

    It’s been a weekend of pain. Earlier a team sat on my team mate’s body for almost 8 minutes then pretended to exfil in order to come back for us at another exfil. It ended up being a 3rd party cluster fight and no one got out. This mindless pvp is making DMZ pointless.

    Earlier today a friend and I were duoing and a guy came into the street below us yelling "friendly, friendly!" And once we hopped down to talk to him he was like "RUN RUN! My teammate doesn't speak English and keeps killing everyone!" As soon as he got the words outta his mouth the other one starts lighting us up. We shoot and kill him since its a 2v1 and the first guy just watched, we added him to the group, and then we all finished some missions lol. It was a weird encounter. Most people have been KOS but when the people talk and interact it makes some fun interactions.

    Came here to say "GOOD!". It's CoD is a PvP game first and foremost where you can optionally be cooperative in DMZ.. The amount of times we'll run into guys .. during a HUNT contract and the other team goes "friendly friendly" and then proceed to get properly abusive in chat because we didn't instantly become besties is hilarious to me. The sheer comedy of "I'm friendly" followed 2ms later by the so called friendlies screaming "f yr momma" is honestly the source of endless entertainment

    I was trying my first attempt at extracting with the weapons case ( I’m a bellow average skilled solo player) about 30 minutes ago, when I heard a random voice say “hey” as I drove past a building. Upon investigation, I discovered that it was a fellow solo player who was scouting near the jug.
    This very kind person said “here” and gave me a three-plate vest and a self-revive.
    Thanks to him I was able to kill the jug and grab the case.😊

    Usually as a solo when I announce I'm a solo 1 of the 3+ feel bad and invite me or don't shoot. I will say getting my third slot was tough doing the extract trackers from tier 3 crown.

    Found this very evident towards the end of season 1 and in to 2 - all the higher level missions seemed to be PVP requirements which just ruined the fun interactions you could have with other players. Then the exfil campers started appearing.
    They’ve got warzone for PVP, DMZ was such a good opportunity for positive interactions with other players but infinity ward just wants to create a hostile player base rather than teaming up or letting solo’s do their thing.
    I used to solo to complete missions but it now forces you to attack other players on sighting as if you don’t, they just murder you.
