Ring Gatekeeping

I don't really think there could be much done about it, but is there anything EA/Respawn can do about players gatekeeping the ring? What do you mean? You may ask... I mean players are staying right next to the ring when it closes so everyone out of the ring trying to get back in are instantly shot at by the squad. It's annoying and shouldn't be a thing because noob level players can just pick off everyone else who's taking damage to the ring. It specially annoys me, when I was the champion and got wiped out by a level 32, 45, and 76 camping the outer part of the ring.

I've been playing this game since launch month, and this isn't the first time this happened and countless of other players are most likely annoyed by it too.

I guess the only real 'fix' would make the players at the ring discoverable by a team glow or something like that or to push people away from the boundaries of the ring... I don't really know... it's just NOT fun getting murdered by players who are taking the easy way out - and are low leveled as well.

  • It's just good positioning from the other team.
    It's a common thing I do when I can take someone off guard with them.

    You either force the other team to ring dive again and take another route or force them in a really bad position giving you a fair advantage.

    It's not without risk as the gatekeepers can end up being squeezed by other squads already inside the ring.
