Does anyone know anything about these group of players?

I keep getting into matches with players with a bunch of players with similar names.

They all have "Bright" "Dawn" or "Quiet" in their usernames.

They don't always play together, and sometimes they are on my squad. But they are extremely toxic with voice and game chats. Not to mention they are just frustrating to play against and it makes me want to quit playing the game. Whoever gets out on my team throws the game and their friends always know where everything is.

And more importantly, how do I stop playing with this try hards? I just want to play and have fun and not be trolled and frustrated by someone. Reporting them has done nothing.

From my understanding the Bright and what not is part of stock names used for streamer mode so their name isn't Brighthawk its just the anonymous name.

It’s players that have their gamer tags set to anonymous. If you hit report option it will show their real names

Its the anonymous mode names. They are randomly generated. BrightDawn in one game is not the same in the next.

I'm not sure if you're trolling but the players have anonymous mode enabled so those names are auto generated.

They are actually different players using the anonymous mode.

It will not.

This feature hides your real name; streamers often use it. You can toggle it on or off in the settings.

Yeah it will, that’s how I see all their real gamer tags.

The display names aren't unique to each person using anonymous mode. Can be multiple people online named "BrightWhatever", just not in the same server. If you want to confirm, pull up their profile and hit "Report". Their actual name will be at the top.
