Your team is losing badly in a competitive match. How do you typically respond?

You get frustrated and start blaming teammates for their mistakes in voice chat. You stay quiet but think about leaving early if things don't improve soon. You stay focused, offer constructive callouts, and encourage your team to adapt strategy. You actively mentor teammates, stay calm, celebrate small wins, and commit to finishing strong no matter the outcome.

A new player joins your cooperative game and keeps making mistakes. What do you do?

You criticize their play and suggest they shouldn't be playing at this level. You tolerate them but don't really help—they should figure it out on their own. You offer some basic tips and explain the mechanics when they ask questions. You patiently explain mechanics, celebrate their improvements, and actively help them learn the game.

You're using voice chat during a competitive match. What's your approach to communication?

You chat constantly about random topics and don't worry about background noise. You communicate when needed but sometimes miss important team callouts. You keep your mic clear, make relevant callouts, and mute during distractions. You communicate concisely with clear callouts, maintain excellent mic quality, and actively listen to teammates.

You discover a game exploit that gives you an unfair advantage. What do you do?

You use it frequently to dominate matches and don't see anything wrong with it. You use it occasionally when you're frustrated, but feel a bit guilty about it. You avoid using it in competitive play but might use it in casual games. You never use it and report it to developers so the game stays fair for everyone.
