Do I want to play with those level 1-5 / Apex 100-500 Kamikazes against the KETT on gold?
Of course I leave! no problem so far. Each to their own, it's a free world.
But why is it that the matchmaking puts me 5 times in a row into this same f****** group ?
This has never happened to me when I was playing The Division or other games. Even though way fewer people were playing these games.
There is a reason why you actively leave a lobby. Of course you don't want to directly be thrown back.

Probably because it's the only available game in your region.

Amen to that lol, sure as hell ain't going to stick around when I see Gold and anything other than Outlaw and the 3 randoms in the lobby are like APEX 50 on a lvl 3 Human Soldier or Engineer.
I'm just like "they must not know, but they gunna learn today"

Yeah, it's rather annoying. It would happen sometimes in ME3, but not nearly as often as MEA. Especially when you get thrown back into the same non-Apex lobby over and over when you are searching for an Apex.

Mute is the best new feature on the game. Don't have to listen to bullshit music, dumbass commentary, or some kid getting told to get food out of his room by his father. With that being said, the number of times people aren't readying up in lobby is getting pretty annoying.

What's bad is that I leave a join then leave a lobby because of some mic-toting fool and don't want to play with them, just to be matched up with that person again - and then leave. I go back to find a random match and join just to get to thrown in wave 2 and it is the same bunch. I take some responsibility because I should have paid attention to who was in the lobby in the first place, but still... And on that subject, I dislike it when everyone is quiet in the lobby and then when the wave 1 starts, better queue up the music! Oh damn the loud music. Exit, stage left... Quickest. Match... Ever... Most mic-toting fools I think are unaware of their noise. The game's default settings leaves the door open for this kind of thing.

Outside of that i dont mind carrying one or two low apex low lvls in gold as long as i have at the very least one good player whit me. Well as long its not remnant on an open map - fuck the observers.

This happens to me too, it's fairly standard. This beta has an extremely tiny player base because it's very very bad. I struggle to find any pugs, it takes ages trying to get a game going. Of course I have to leave any lobby with level 1 players attempting gold against khet haha, makes me laugh all the time! But yeah, teeny tiny player base.

No. That door is opened by gamers who consciously and voluntarily use a microphone and deliberately leave it on. What do they expect will happen? A microphone that is connected and switched on is obviously going to pick up sound haha. It's not the game's fault, those idiots are the ones to blame.

Well as long its not remnant on an open map - fuck the observers. If/when that works (which, so far, hasn't). If I try to mute someone that way, it flashes up some kind of white box which goes away (Origin overlay? - dunno). Anyways, annoying at best. You must be trying to use the mause on a console port .... Dont. Press Esc then navigate via the up and down keys. It should highlight the name of the person - then just press X and his mic should gray out. Works every time for me. Just dont ever use the mause for any navigation in the menu's in this game.

It should highlight the name of the person - then just press X and his mic should gray out. Works every time for me. Just dont ever use the mause for any navigation in the menu's in this game. I tried this last night. Didn't work - ended up getting killed on wave 1 trying to get a loudmouth asshole to shut up. After that, I tried again, but ended up leaving the game. Next game, I had 3 people with their mics on that were all echoing each other's and it sounded like a bad/higher pitched version of Sloth from Goonies in a continuous state. After 20 seconds I was ready to hit the power button on my PC (and normally I'm not that overwhelmed). Maybe my version of the console port (PC version) is bugged? Whatever the hell, your suggestion didn't work. Really strange. Like i said i normally just press "esc" navigate to said noisy person via the "up" and "down" and then press "x" to mute them. Works like a charm for me. Maybe someone else can share if this worked for them. The othere option is to just mute everyone in every lobby you get before the game begins.

Yesterday was awful with low-level pugs in Gold lobbies. Ofcourse those who single play can try gold Apex missions, but I won't be the one carrying them (I'm not good enough to pull that off).
And yes hosting a game of my own would be the best solution, but for some reason nobody ever joins my lobby... And no I'm not on a 56kb modem, the connection speed on my side isn't the issue at all...

I do not remember seeing that either in the lobby nor in that popup when I was hearing noise. (I wonder if there is some setting that enables / disables this feature?) I've never seen the mic light up. I usually just mute people in the lobby until I find the noisy one, then unmute the others.
