Quit Punishment
There needs to be a quit punishment of some kind in this game, or a reward for people who stay in the game. I've had so many games where teammates quit in all sorts of times during a match. Just this...
It would still be a br. The main features of a br are fighting, exploring, scavenging last man standing...to elimante scavenging would not destroy nor change the genre in a big way except to eliminate luck from the equation.
As i stated earlier in POKER you decide whether to play your hand or not. If I a crap hand followed by a crap flop I'm gone. unless I DECIDE to play my luck for the turn/river/bluff opponents...should I do the equivalent of poker play in a br? Crap two guns like Mozzy/p2020 ( crap down cards in Holdem )...if my opponents push ( raise all in would be the poker equivalent) should I fight ( call in poker ) or should I quit ( fold in poker )? In poker I would fold . So I should quit the game if I get crap loot ( cards )...cool thanks for the advice...
I am also in favor of sbmm...I'm also in favor of solos/ duos as it would completely eliminate the chance of getting a high lvl troll or XP advanced teammate depending on how they choose to define "skill"... Almost every br will rank a 0 win 10kd player above a 2 kd 50% win player...sorry it's just the way it is. I could never willingly classify a end game cherry picker as more skilled than a 10kd player...the cherry picker will lose to the 10kd 99/100 provided the meet under even circumstances. The cherry picker is more efficient and makes choices better suited toward winning but he is not BETTER than the 10kd player...
But the whole reason I responded was to answer your question as to why brs get no respect . It has been and will be until the removal of rng that brs are largely dictated and influenced by luck. Just the way it is
The poker analogy is just terrible. If anything, quitting in this SQUAD ONLY game is more like quitting in a game of 3 on 3 basketball or hockey. Your teammates are just stuck at a huge disadvantage and you look like the sore loser you are. How hard is it to try for the 10 seconds you just described maybe do some damage so your teammates can finish them and revive you? You just sound like one of the short attention span players that doesn't like BRs so.. umm... why play? I HATE my teammates 90%+ of the time when solo queueing (why i am so for ranked and a solo mode) but I still TRY.
I didn't start the poker analogy and I do try...i have never left a game in a gunfight...EVER... But the other guy tried to equate the rng of brs to the luck of poker...I merely explained that the luck of poker is controllable...you can fold without being out of the game completely...in a br you are done...
The original question was why brs get no respect...
The answer is because they are largely luck based...there is a reason there is no br in the top 3 for competitive gaming...it's because they are not skill based...even if it has sbmm it will NEVER be a true skill based genre...for example in fortnite if true get and cloak drop same building and tfue gets a pistol and cloak gets a pump...99.99999% of the time cloak will win...
In apex if dizzy and shroud drop side by side and shroud gets a p2020 and dizzy gets a Eva ...shroud will lose
Nobody cares about winning a br because it is luck based...
If your the only team to drop artillery and you have a Pathfinder and the final circle ends up ON TOP of the wall....guess what? You win...this has happened to me ..literally won because the other team couldn't get to circle...
This is why brs arent taken seriously...
I am pro sbmm
I am pro solo/duo
