All samples are collective as long as the person holding them extracts successfully.
I saw someone get punished for team killing last night, they decided to kill everyone just before the shuttle left but fortunately I was suspicious and managed to board, then it came up in chat something about they'd been removed from the game for their behaviour - I've not seen it before when people have been griefing.

Team, but there is an individual achievement for collecting so many common samples.
But you all get the same samples regardless who carries them
Iirc it says something like "didn't make the cut" or a few other things when their kicked.
But it's purely the host who has the kick option not automatic or anything.

I don't want to get all "PC Master Race" about it but I turned off crossplay the other day and have been finding my games to be more...grown up. Mostly I've found people are more co-operative.
I rarely had any toxicity before (TK's, or chat hostility) it was more people running off on their own, or quitting the game as soon as a we had a few deaths.

The super samples only appear around a certain rock check my previous posts to find a picture of what it looks like.
@PinkFloyd - Spent ages last night with a random who was trying to do this with no luck - so many close misses 
Definitely encounter a lot more toxicity with crossplay on - I just ignore it mostly or just leave the group, PC only doesn't avoid it but definitely far more griefers and time wasters on console

Think I may have to disable cross play also, joined a game last night where the group leader just got in and out of his hellpod, going to his armoury then back in, then realised he was clearly trolling when he selected somewhere to land, about 10 times to then jump back out of the hellpod again. 
Would love to know what they get out of it.

I must be lucky.
I have had no issues with tking or anyone shooting others when extracting I have have cross play enabled.
Managed to get to 37 today with all stratagems bought and now just working on ship upgrades.
Got the new warbond and on page 2 of this. Just buying the armor\weapons\grenades. Not fussed about the victory stuff and banners etc

I notice this happens a little often now that people decide to bail after the mission starts. I tried to complete solo (after they bailed, one just as we started, the other two about 5 mins in) and the SOS thing doesn't seem to work when you need it to.

No more so than any other kernel/root level anti-cheat.

I was kinda able to cheese it, I was killed, then reinforced. I managed to land on a big rock near a base, and the Charger was just stationary underneath me waiting for me to move, and easy target for a resupply pod! Wasn't even aware there was an achievement for it.@PinkFloyd - Spent ages last night with a random who was trying to do this with no luck - so many close misses
I suspect you could also do it from range with some luck, or by utilising the stun grenades.
If you press O and go to recent it shows you if they where PC or console btwThink I may have to disable cross play also, joined a game last night where the group leader just got in and out of his hellpod, going to his armoury then back in, then realised he was clearly trolling when he selected somewhere to land, about 10 times to then jump back out of the hellpod again.

I swap between playing on PC and on PS5, there are plenty of trolls on both platforms from my experience.
Had a frustrating one the other day when this one guy waited for us all to board the pelican and then killed all 3 of us and left the game, lost all samples etc. so a little annoying.
The one thing I have noticed is that if you're crossplaying from PS5 to PC you often get much longer load times from the hellpods to landing if you end up playing with someone on PC with an older harddrive. All PS5's have a nice speedy SSD but we played with a mate at the weekend who still rocks his 7200rpm mechanical drive and it was like waiting for paint to dry.
