    This is the main reason I don’t play any online games if I have to play with random people.

    Playing with friends? Sure, anytime. Playing with randos? Yeah, no.

        DRG nailed it by making sure that you could only ever cooperate on things. You mined the most or least? Rewards are split evenly between everyone. You killed the most or least? Rewards are still split evenly. You didn’t even make it home? So long as one of you did, everyone still gets the rewards.

          Except the rare times where the host will kick you for no reason and no warning after you commited a good chunk of your time to the session. When you’re kicked the game counts that as a lost game for you and you don’t even get to block the host or anything to avoid joining their sessions in the future when the host gets the option to prevent you from joining their sessions. I wish the game had a smarter handling for problematic players and wasn’t so biased towards hosts. Happened to me only a few times but it’s still annoying to experience that.
