    I'm fixer. Honestly, i don't know how to send a message to a user who runs by himself and die. I was very stressful and tried to educate stupid player but it seems I can't send a message unless they accepts my invitation.
    Isn't warning signal to individual user that everyone wanted to have? It seems the developers didn't put that feature in purpose. I think it's really unfair loosing a game because of some selfish players
    Anyone got solution?

    Together->choose the idiot & follow up with Negative Negative.

    But some people go their own way regardless :) Hope they have a plan and focus on healing the people that make themselves healable.
    Or, if the lone wolf is your mvp, follow him! I have plenty of games where keeping 1 top player alive is more worthwhile than healing 3 lowbies.

    Dont send people invitations just to tell them they are selfish, that is kind of rude / harassing and will probably end up with you being reported.
    You will meet some useless team players, and you will find some legendary ones, its what makes the games interesting.
    If you did well in game, then dont take the loss to heart, forget about it, chin up and move on!

    I play fixer and healer roles in other games - it just comes with the role ;)
    What Kitterini said is already good specific advice.

    Good luck and patience :)

    It is frustrating. I had a game this morning on The Foundry, where I spammed ‘together’ and to help the fixer. But two players decided to go off together around the top chasing a lone shooter. Meanwhile we got slaughtered 4v3, trying to protect the fixer. And then the two players who ran off on thier own, got slaughtered 4v2 (nice one jerks!). Of course those two ended up getting top damage (from nailing one lone ship all game), so they probably blamed us.

    I really don’t understand how players can get past even 500 infamy, and still not know to stick together.

    However, I will say that it’s not always ‘stupidity’. I sometimes go off on my own because I’m a speeder, and it’s kind of my job to scout for mortar users, and to ambush people. I don’t have the range to hang back and snipe with the shooters.

    I usuaually try to stay safe, and make sure I can get back to my team, but sometimes it goes wrong... I get caught by a big torpedo, or a ship comes out of the fog where I wasn’t expecting and corners me. I’m sure my team are like “grrr idiot suicide speeder”, but actually I’m not trying to be reckless, it’s just a bit unlucky.

    I think when shooters do it, it is a bit stupid though, because they have zero chance of running back to thier team.

    First of all, why educating not being selfish to selfish ppl is rude or harassing? If I don’t tell, How will they play harmonize with other players? This is a team play. You think it’s rude Perhaps you used to be that kinda of player I guess? You are basically saying if I loose just suck it up I don’t get it. Why do I have to keep loose my infamy because of selfish shooters and defenders? Why my friends can’t go up ranks because of those selfish players? My whole point is developer should some how let us send negative sign to individual user at least

    She's a coordinator, not a dev. :)
    I bet she started once she got hired/when she wanted the job. :D (No offense I hope ;))
