as it's double xp weekend i've been leveling my alternate account and have been kicked from teams at least a dozen times a day. do people have something against low level players now? i've been playing this game for years and i've never come across such rampant bias. it used to be back in the day high level players would help out the greenhorns (i've even done it myself) but now it seems an elitist mentality has gripped the community. am i crazy or just unlucky with the servers? what are your thoughts on this surprising development?

we all have daily/weekly mutated public event challenges to do this week and they aren't spawning. i get that i can go into daily ops to kill mutated enemies but the events are impossible to complete. i'm not about to spend real world money on premium rerolls for yet another Bethesda snafu.

EDIT FOR THE DOWNVOTERS AND "REROLL AND MOVE ON" CROWD:

i am vindicated.

i've been playing since midnight and i've been using auto drive to go to locations and events. it's a nice break between races and helps in road discovery. it's also cool you can change the camera mode as well. i built an '05 mx-5 in b 600 class for cruising and it's just so satisfying watching the auto drive eat up the miles.

i was just wondering what everyone thinks is the best pistol in the game, besides the obvious choice of Dom Pedro. let's just pretend DP didn't exist, what would the next best hand cannon be? i'm considering an alternate build just to change things up a bit as i'm starting to get bored with my usual heavy gunner loadout. i can craft nearly every weapon in the game, so that isn't an issue. this alternate build will also come in handy when there are challenges relating to pistols as well. what say you wastelanders? what is your go-to when going for a gunslinger aesthetic?
