@ZukoThaKid I am one of those people who openly admit to dropping solo because the game is full of baiters. It's funny how a lot of white knights say this is a "TEAM" game yet this games unofficial name is bait simulator. If you don't want solo drops, then fix the problem to begin with as in stop the * baiting then you won't get solo drops. Since that is never going to happen which is mind boggling that this game is designed NOT to be a bait simulator stuns me.
What do I mean not designed to be a bait simulator? because it's a team game. Nope as in for example if you play PUBG even Shroud could drive across a field and get headshot by a bullet that wasn't meant for him with the exception of level 3 helmet but point is you can be killed so easily which logically speaking means a lot more people should be baiting, which they don't they have like the 5% bait habits like counter strike and any other FPS, team game etc APEX LEGENDS on the other hand can survive sniper headshots with even white armor which would encourage less fear YET people bait like 95% of the time it's insane and *x files intro*.
As an expert of problem solving, the secret is prevention but people not on the autistic spectrum seem to have a knack for waiting until the problem happens then try to fix it. How about (and this will never happen in this community) try not baiting and then you won't get people like me who play solo because I could show you a ton of games on my stream were if I were to say "I bet you £10 that I get baited HARD not even mildly at least 20 games this session" every single one of my viewers, friends and family would say NO BET because I would be richer than amazon. Yesterday a guy stood right behind the guy who killed me as I watched and didn't do anything until after I died. As I was killing a player another ONE was shooting me in the back in the open whilst my TWO, yes that's right TWO so called team mates were in cover, high ground, staring right at this player and did nothing until after I was downed. You don't believe me still come and watch, I bet £100 I get baited HARD, not mildly like these examples, 20 times in a 3 hour session say, you bet?
So my opinion on removing solo jumping is. You must be taking the * or are simply ignorant, the game would be dead, it's already declining to the community's *.
Sure we can start enforcing certain playing styles by implementing various rules and in-game limitations and enforce them with punishment but why stop with the rules about team drops?
Why not punish people that runs away from the other teammates as well?
"A player will sustain circle tick damage if he moves more than 300 meters away from the closest teammate if that teammate is closer to the third teammate" ..
Or what about those who did nothing in a fight but always are the first at the loot crate after you soloed an entire team?
"A player can only take loot from a box to a value corresponding to the % dmg dealt he contributed to that enemy's health loss, where the value of items is decided by the items rarity"
Nah Im just joking ofc. I think having restrictions and legislation against how player choose to play this game generally is a bad idea and will only result in even more toxicity than there already is. Just for starters; there isnt even a "right" or "wrong" way in many of these situations. When I play with my Diamond-to-predator premade squad in casuals, we will have a bigger chance of winning the first fight if we spread out alot, since most of us have a statistically favorable chance to win a 1v1 as long as we get a weapon. Also, your team SHOULD drop at different location, if you drop alone at an area, so you can clear that area as fast as possible and move on.
If you want the perfect team, then you have to play premades =)
