What is up with the looting system?
I've been playing Apex Legends Ranked and lately I have been getting very unlucky where I've land and died all because I did not have no armor or weapons to loot.
I think increasing the loot chance in every spot would balance the game more. I don't think its fair that someone could find better gear faster than I can because of luck.
The loot is pretty bad. Shroud was complaining all yesterday about it
I watched another streamer go through a whole long building in skulltown and not find a single gun. Found like 8 items. No gun
Few days ago I posted a complain on forums that loot HAS and NEEDs to be increased by a lot... And I mean a lot... And that was before season 2... I got so much criticism from community I have decided to give up on it... And now I see that I was right... Great... Well, why should people listen to someone with over 500 hours in the game when they can spit on the guy when he wants to help...
Yeah this is insane. Found like 9 items earlier. 2 stacks of 20 light and heavy. Multiple sight attachments. No gun. Not sure if I had armor or not. How do I find all these different locations where theres loot and I dont have A SINGLE GUN AND ONLY 40 AMMO TO MY NAME? Stacks of ammo should be more than 10 and there should be guaranteed guns in every building or at least a higher chance
Very frustrating trying to play this game when the enemy always has rare shields and you're stuck with absolutely nothing. This game could be 10x better with such simple changes but they just dont have common sense or dont even play their own game
If I adopt the same method as you guys : I landed in Wetlands a few times yesterday and 2x I landed on purple armor and on the same roof or in the building underneath my feet was a weapon and extended mag. The rest of the time I landed and still found armor and guns but wasn't fully stacked.
Going by your logic - I would have to sit here and argue that we need less loot. Going by my logic I'd say : I had good drops. When I had poor drops I was lucky because the closest team were at the other cluster of buildings in wetlands and we had time to decide whether to ditch or fight. The former is luck and the latter is choice, the secret ingredient after that is skill level and it's variable. If I relied entirely on luck (like people who drop into skulltown every single game) and my skill to make up the difference : I'd be screwed in far more games than I am.
Everyone has good and bad drops, but if you're consistently finding you've not got what you need for a fight : the fight has happened too quick for your skill level and/or you've been unlucky in my opinion. At 500 hours it's probably the latter : but the price we pay for any variety in the loot is the chance that RNG will smile as we get pasted by someone fully stacked while we're still trying to equip the 2-4x scope onto our shield battery to macgyver a bomb.
Someone like Shroud will complain because he has a business where people tune in to see him pwn. He has customers who require an explanation when he drops and dies, and his expectation is determined by knowing that in 99.99999999999999999% of the fights he's involved in : if skill was all that matters, he should have won. The best game for someone like shroud is where 2 red spheres shoot laserbeams at each other which kill with 1 shot and are hitscan as it would be nothing but skill.
Are you really in the same boat? :P I'm not.
P.S - more than 1000 hours here last time you quoted 500 hours, I don't know what I'm at now. I can tell you're not new to the game or to gaming, everyone else can. An argument from authority doesn't work though.
When everyone disagrees with you, you know you're wrong. Every drop has terrible loot
@TperodactylJust like Galileo, right?
When you're wrong you're wrong. Truth and accuracy aren't determined by how many people believe the statements.
Way to go, addressing ANYTHING I said, by the way 😛 Such convincing arguments. I'll change my mind and agree with you.
RNG isn't unfair, it holds no biased lol. Just say a quick prayer on the way to ground and hope for the best. :D
Me and another team drop containment. I don't have a shield, my team mate doesn't have a shield. Luckily my other team mate does and kills the whole squad. there were THREE body shields in the whole area. Do you understand how much loot that is for only 3 body shields? Ran into a team that had a purple shield. GG. Good job ruining your game
@JayxbroxlolYeah, Respawn need to fix this stupid **bleep**.
The loot table should be the same.
