Seems like a lot of players struggle a lot and just insta-quit, they make basic gameplay mistakes, get downed way too easily. Is the game too balanced on a knifes edge and too difficult? I see you'v...
@Ingeniekey Playing with randoms is the worst ☹️ the problem is that most of the players think - if Daltoosh/Aceu can jump there and kill everyone with a wingman, they can do it too. They jump at bad place and die almost instantly and of course leave the game because they are here for 4k and 20 kills badges not to play for the win 🙂 Ranked is the only solution and I mean ranked with FRIENDS, not with randoms.
@TBTFWYes, streamers probably do affect the vanity or wannabes. I have thought about this interaction myself as well. @E9ine_ACSo a solution is to penalize the K/D. The real K/D should be K/(D+L) and also have Stayer % also as an indipendent stat. "Stays 90% of the rounds." (Number of rounds stayed/Total rounds played)%. Maybe also on the banner a "stayer/leaver" bar that indicates how much of a stayer the player is. I want to be rewarded for staying with stats and other things, but the way the game is designed now; it simply dont care and thats a major game design flaw. The finishers doesnt really help on the leaving. Why sit and wait for someone to finish you. Its easier to just leave and not have to be humiliated. So the Respawn devs also want to rub it in the players face and almost force them to be inclined to leave from a psycological side. @TBTFWIf its not even effective and as I also figured a scare tactic, they many want to allocate more resources into something heavier, but rewards for players that stay.
yeah they do, i laugh at people who suck up to streamers. Had 2 idiots in ranked literally call me stupid for flying over fragment, they somehow thought i was going to land at fragment for whatever reason. they go on a long rant about " the top players / the apex players don't land there blah blah blah blah blah. and they landed somewhere else far away from me leaving me alone to get killed. needless to say they went around for 15+ minutes ratting only shot their sniper rifle once, and then died instantly.
@EEAAITSINTHEDLCTheres a TON of players like that and that is absolutely mind-boggling that there are so many of them. Its like the mentality of a kid. Wake up nerds, streamers arent your heroes, your local nurse or firefighter is, as an example. Streamers are entertainers and advertisers. They dont contribute to the core elements of society like an engineer or doctor, but are almost worshipped. Crazy.
Ive also noticed the leaver penalty in casual but it only seems like you get it if you leave in the dropship but you are good to go as soon as you landed. I personally don't understand this decision from Respawn. Maybe they think people who got Watson or Crypto (hehe) because of this stupid randomized pick if your legend was taken, will stay in the game ? If so, I think Respawn just should let us preset our top 3 Legends already.
But on randoms; playing with randoms is the best when you wanna frag. Only when having two bad-to-mediocre teammates is it possible for you to get 4k, 20 kills games because good teammates just take 33% of the dmg dealt and the enemies will never have a chance of healing up. Me and my premades just recently killed 42 players i.e 73% of the enemy players in the lobby and we only got like 2500 dmg +/- 300 each. But with two clueless randoms, you can carry them and get those high dmg matches.
@Balladalidila Maybe they plan to add the pubs penalty with next season. Probably is going to be 1-2min, not 10min but they will add it soon or later. About badges - 2.5k+ damage is easily achievable, but you have to play. Participate in as many battles as possible, but you can't explain it to many players. Even if you add badges like 5k-6k-7k.....etc or 25kills, 30kills they will kill the game at all because tryhards that never reached 4k dmg or 20kills will try to get 5-6-7k damage and 30 kill :D Maybe unlock badge with apex coins is a good solution. 1000 apex coins for 20 kills or 4k damage.
Leaver penalty in pubs? lol Fine, but give me teammates who play to win and not two hot-dropping **** **** who insta-die and grief my game. As long as I'm getting griefed in 60-80% of my games, either by teammates or sbmm, I'm gonna leave, penalty or not.
