    How toxic is the playerbase? I had several hundreds of hours in CS:GO but found that the playerbase became increasingly toxic (team kills, vote kicks to try and ban you, sabotaging plans).

      Generally if you are under Difficulty Level 6 people don’t get cheesed. If you were in my squad and you did the stupidest things that could possibly be done by accident or a bit of trolling, I can still finish a level 4 mission no problem.

      A handful people have the game sound playing through their open mic (default setting) which is annoying to me.

      Level 6 and up take actual coordination, so some players don’t like it if you don’t bring all the “right” stuff and kick people which is a little toxic.

      By and large people are cooperative. There’s no incentive to sabotage the team anyway.

      I haven’t experienced any at all. The game has its own communication system (if you’ve played DRG it’s the same idea, although not quite as good) and very rarely have I even typed a message to randoms. Very occasionally I’ve heard people on voice but they’re always pretty nice so far.
