MOST people are really willing to do this and fall in behind a leader, and the one or two that runs ahead just dies again and then joins up. I find if I try to help a group work together BEFORE the first slaughter, it never takes, but after that humbling experience, Noobs are ready to learn.
I've been playing in the swamps lately too. I love it when the newbies join and they just run off on their own. I explain teamwork and strategy.They die. Too far for me to Rez. I explain. They run off on their own again. They die. I explain. They run off on their own again. They die. I explain. They join the group. I explain about bosses. They run straight to the boss when they get near. They die. I explain. They die. I explain. They join the team in clearing crocs to the boss.

I lmao when they head off on their own. You see the health line zip to zero then shoot up cause they're spamming pots...
Then they blackline lol

But, they come out of the swamps as good players- IF they ever go to the swamps again...

That's the thing, Royce... A lot them won't go back...
I think the mynas generation should have "I went to the swamps ONCE" on the back of the tshirt
