    If you don't like having to be with solo queue survivors then get with a swf and if you have only 2 or 3 people deal with what you got

    I literally have no friends who even want to touch this game anymore because of what the devs have done and i cant even talk to people online because of my anxiety so what am i supposed to do? I guess suck it up and have games like these until the devs finally balance solo queue.

    I get that on PC as well. Hopefully rankings and matchmaking fixes it when the devs finish working on their new system.

    I know the feeling, I've played 90% solo and have gotten teammates like that throughout all ranks, even now in red. Bringing Kindred can be helpful in situations like that, as it helps your teammates see that no one is coming to help you and for one of them to head your way, but that was a pretty extreme situation. Those were definitely just bottom of the barrel teammates, especially bad since they didn't even attempt to help you once you went into struggle, and I don't think much can be done for them!

    Sadly, part of being a solo survivor is the fact that you'll get bad teammates at one time or another.... and even though it's frustrating as heck to be left on the hook to die, it's just the way the game was meant to be. However, I do agree that there are too many players who are "out of rank", if you know what I mean.... red/purple rank being full of boosted SWF gamers who have no idea what they're doing when they play solo. I would love to see them do something about this sometime soon.

    If you feel uncomfortable approaching new people, ask a friend or two if they can be in the call when you invite a new person - this should ease the anxiety that you possibly experience when talking to a stranger. Only make callouts when you need to and ccommunicate when necessary up until you get to a position where you feel comfortable enough to talk to them by yourself? other than that, i don't know what you could do.
