Has Prospecting Probes lobbies become more aggressive?

When I go solo I'm always friendly. Last time I did the Probe trial couple of weeks ago everyone was super friendly as well and it was essy getting the points. Now I've encountered people who either shoot on sight or shoot me while I'm looting or fighting ARC all evening. Can't even loot more than two probes. Killed a bunch but also end up getting killed in the end because I run out of healing or caught off guard. You'd think me shooting back is the reason I get into aggressive lobbies but whenever I play another map everyone's friendly again. Trials are gonna be hard this time I guess. Anyone else experiencing this?
