Change your loot focus groups

Whoever in your focus groups was like: "Man, I love this game, but every time I land, I get like a gun and that sucks, because I just want to land on 3 crates full of attachments and be defenseless ...
loot
weapons

@PlapBruh Lol that was hilarious! On the topic though, I honestly don't think there are any focus groups, in regards to loot distribution. I'm fairly sure it all just spawns according to a random algorithm, like other BR's. I feel you on the lackluster initial loot on drop!! I deal with this on Apex, and I dealt with it on both PUBG and Fortnite, back when I still played those games. I just have terrible luck with the loot RNG.

One thing I learned on Apex, specifically, is to NOT land on supply bins. When I first started playing, I would always land on them, hoping for good loot. I learned to just land on ground-spawn weapons that I can see as I am landing, that way I know I am getting a gun. Couldn't even tell you how many times I landed and opened 5+ supply bins with not a single actual gun. Just attachments/throwables/backpacks and whatnot, Lmao! I have had MUCH better luck, landing directly on visible weapons. Supply bins seem to have the worst loot RNG, in my personal opinion.

    I know it's old, but I need to comment that:

    No it is not like other BRs. Fortnite has a weapon in every chest, there are weapons everywhere.

    PUBG has no chests or bins, but you can find a weapon in every single house.

    In Apex you can have an entire house without a weapon. Or that one time we have looted two entire spots without a single evo shield.

    So there is a big difference imo.
