Am I allowed to abandon a suicidal jump master?
Repeatedly, in Ranked mode, I have pleaded with a jump master to not drop into the biggest fray right at the beginning of the dropship's path, but they do it anyway, because they want to chase early kills.
When that happens, I typically leave formation and land sufficiently far away to land safe and be able to play "strategically". On multiple occasions, the jump master and/or other player then threatened to report me for it. I haven't received any ban (yet), but the threats are, to say the least, tilting.
I would really like Respawn entertainment to give a definitive answer on whether this is allowed.
It might also be a good idea to remind ALL players that:
1. Both Jump master AND other members of the squad can ping where they'd like to land
2. Jump masters SHOULD ping where they want to land
3. They should ping BEFORE jumping, ideally waiting for confirmation from others that they are fine with the drop location
(For the record, I always pick my legend during the selection, so I already am a Jump master roughly 80% of the time.)
