I'm still learning the game and one of the things I think is really funny is the fact that I play it completely wrong from an "optimal gameplay" perspective. I was in a group with good players who were patient enough to show me the ropes, but I could feel them facepalming whenever I did something stupid. It's always fun being the self aware new guy when your teammates are willing to put up with your incompetence because they recognize you're still learning.
If it helps, I likely didn't notice you did something stupid, unless that something stupid was calling an orbital down on me while I try to clear nests.
Oh my teammates definitely noticed my mistakes. I picked up someone else's support weapon after they died and they held me at gunpoint until I figured out how to drop it. It was hilarious and I'm really glad they put up with my incompetence.
I had a level 27 do this to me the other day! While tempting to turn him into molten lead as he should have known better, I just shrugged and went for the more difficult challenge! Working on my growth mindset.
Just so you know, if it's an EAT (Expendable Anti-Tank) it's totally okay to grab those whenever. We get them every minute and call them down as much as possible all over the map so that they can be used whenever heavies show up.
