    I strongly suggest using official discord’s lfg thread/channel to look for a group in your timezone. MM can work but you don’t know how they are gonna play the game. In my experience public lobby is really hit and miss, but the pre-formed group, even with play style difference, with communication and adaptation it is way more fun. Just have some common goals to work with, like the daily personal order, the things you want to unlock, etc and every one helping each other out is best.

        It’s fine really, and honestly have that group somewhere helps your enjoyment a lot even if it’s just one mission and you have to leave. There are plenty mission types to choose from with variable length of mission time across different difficulty levels. Like I am not the most grindy guy in my group(the top grinder is already over lv30 while I am only lv17.) And most of the base weapon from the free warbond you can unlock remain pretty decent as well. (one of the best guns so far is in the free warbond and only on page 4)

        There are plenty causal groups as well, much better than randomly public lobby IMO.

        1. public lobby the host can kick you and you waste all the time you sink into the mission.
        2. public lobby doesn’t really limit region that well and your connection heavily relies on host’s internet. So if you ever want to do pub games, host yourself so you are in control.
        3. discord is somewhat more tie to the account socially so people will behave a bit better than publish match making.
        4. there are on the fly lfg as well. plenty of options.

        like this on official lfg channel:

          I appreciate the effort but I’ve just learned that I don’t enjoy the LFG. I’m at a stage - maybe it’ll change - that if I can’t play the game for any amount of time including no time and pick it up and put it down at will without losing out on content, I’m just not into it any more.

            It’s fine, lol, enjoy other parts of life is also important too. I don’t think you will lose any content as how they design their unlocks are pretty much only tie to play time and challenge yourself. I even saw some video of player finish highest difficulty missions solo. The shortest mission is like 10 mins and maximum is 40 mins.
