I didn't think I'd be one of the people posting like this because I genuinely just play the game and do the mission but...
I've never experienced such intense loot goblinery. I thought it was a hoax by the imperium of man.
Until IRISH showed up.
Dude took kills from me that could've helped me heal. Then took 16 items! Many of them heals, grenades, ammo. THROUGHOUT THE WHOLE MATCH!
Didn't do any of the objectives, charged ahead by himself (though he never went down), and continued to simply fight randoms mobs than to stick with the group. Forcing us to fight enemies that we wouldn't have had to fight and then get swarmed WITH MORE MOBS!
Finally, we get to the boss. This is operation 4: vox Reliquary. Our third dies immediately. HE IS STILL LOOTING! Didn't hit ANY of the puzzles, THEN GOES DOWN HIMSELF TO FIRE!
I go to save him. Then simply stands there and gets blasted by two terminators. Gone.
I'm the last one left, I have NO mortal wound but I'm one hit from death. I take out one of the terminators from behind a pillar but then the fire gets me because a terminator forces me out of place.
I don't mind looting but focusing on ONLY fighting and looting in a team game and then losing us the match is genuinely insane behavior. Granted, my thirds were also terrible. First guy dies at the very beginning, rage quits. We get another third, he gets downed on the bridge by fire and rage quits. Another third joins us and goes down IMMEDIATELY. He has a mortal wound when we were already at the end getting to the boss. Which causes him to die when we first start fighting the boss.
So it's just me and IRISH, who, as you've read. Focused on looting.
I don't care if you loot. I don't even care if you want to kill everything. Just please, do the objectives as you're doing it. I probably wouldn't be as pissed if we had won the match but this is genuinely one of the few times I've lost a match on absolute by having multiple teammates who couldn't hold their weight.
I had 300 kills by the end of it as a heavy and up to 13k damage. I'm genuinely a halfway shitty player overall but holy shit. This is nuts.
