I've made 2 friends recently through this game on PC through the game's text chat in Operations. I started prestiging my Bulwark tonight and any time I have to point out pickups in text chat, when people miss the visual ping, it usually starts up a conversation, and most people are really chill.

Tonight, a player who initially played the campaign on release came back to the game to try operations, and I asked them to let me know if they had any questions. We did the first 3 operations on minimal before switching to average on the 4th. The second random we picked up ended up helping give tips and advice too.

The funny thing was, this player joined mid-mission after 7 different people joined and then quit on minimal. Not sure what that was about, if they wanted to play Bulwark and I was already on it. But it was a fun time.

Plus, there's a certain satisfaction in leaving pickups for the other players and pinging them. A lot of people in this game are really polite, and I've seen a few standoffs of people insisting the other person take the stim pack or relic.

I befriended a battle brother the other week on PC through the in-game text chat, and we've been having fun. He didn't know you could get squished by a Tyranid drop pod, and made his own fun when a random teammate we got went AFK in a mission. The voice clips are from the game Dawn of War, the first one from 2004.
