I don't really have any streamers I watch...whatever's on YouTube...I say it's unfortunate because the whole loot scheme doesn't allow for a test of skill...what would be the problem with dropping with a preset load out and Max health? Rng is what ruins brs and keeps them from reaching a true competitive state. Which to answer your question earlier is why no one respects brs...
To say "I call it strategy" is a bit pointless since you could play strategically aggressive or passive...
But you are correct...most br players have transitioned from traditional tdm for games where run n gun is the dominant play style unless you come from a search n destroy style hardcore playlist...a little more strategy in those.
I would personally rather have a 10kill fast paced game finishing 6th or so than a 0 kill 2nd place or 1st place...to me it's boring
If respawn would simply implement solos and duos the squad community wouldn't have to worry about guys like myself who purely refuse to play passively. Don't get me wrong I'm not running gung ho into a mid game mosh pit with no support lvl 1 shields and no heals. But if my squad is kitted I'm tryna move into the action from either flank preferably the high side or side with more cover.
But sorry man if I get put with some straight up campers I will do 1 of 3 things...
- Leave the game
- Sit at the furthest reaches of the map and watch you tube till the storm comes in
- Starting shooting at the sky trying to get some action
And br stands for BATTLE Royale. If it had been intended to be played passive they'd have called it a HSL...HIDE AND SHOOT LATER
