dislike playing with swf teammates

am i the only one who's a soloq player who despises playing with the other 3 teammates that are "friends"? it's simple to recognize them at the start, they always either have odd matching names that is just obvious somehow & high prestige levels or you just stalk their profiles in the lobby before the match and see that they actually have each other in their friend lists. it immediately makes me feel "left out" knowing it's gonna be easier for all of them to play by talking to each other(most of the time) & will just see me as some useless random. maybe it's just "jealousy" and i wish i actually had someone to play with instead of other randoms that suck 90% of the time, can anyone relate to this? it makes me feel better in a way when none of us know each other and it's just "more fair" to me.

    Sometimes but not for the reason you've stated. I find with 3man swfs that it can go one of two ways - they'll either stick their neck out for me or abandon me without a care.

    Not really dislike, but it adds to the frustrations in DbD.

    When I‘m with an obvious 3SWF (similar names) or a high prestige group, I expect a good game because of all of „SWF OP/unbeatable/must be nerfed“ online chants and then nobody touches gens, they just want to be chased and flashlight save each other and unhook right in the killer‘s face. If I‘m unlucky I finish the first gen and two of them are dead already.

    Yeah I was with a trio yesterday and when one DC’d at 5 gens, the other 2 followed suit within 30 secs. Left me with 3 bots at 5 gens, and a killer who thought it fun to slug me to try to get the bots.

    Was a laugh a minute.

    We always try to play with our team mates, even when we cant speak with them. We have even added some that did the same to us, and play with them when there is a space in our team. Some prefer not to be on voice and thats fine, we still play well with them, but yeah its easyer with the voice.
