Suggestion: Faster game start

Hello,

I've been playing for a while and, in my opinion, something that gets old pretty fast is the game start. First you got all the loading animations and banners for 4-5 seconds, then you need aproximately 3 seconds or so for each player, then you get to see AGAIN your team comp for player stats and such plus more animations, and the same for champion squad (WHO CARES??), another 10 seconds more or less. Then game "starts" and, wait, another 20 seconds if you go HOT or at least 40 or more if you try to do something in the game and select a good landing zone.

To sum up, you need around half a minute for the actual game to start, then almost another minute to actually start playing - this could be ok if not for the fact that is very, VERY probable to land with other squads in this game, specially if you are new, get pwned and then START EVERYTHING AGAIN... pretty obnoxius.

I have several friends who refuse to play the game with me because all this waiting -- they find the rest of the game enjoyable tho.

So some constructive solutions I can think off to speed up all this stuff:

  • Remove initial animation with the banners and such -- totally unnecesary.
  • For champs selection, let the champ you selected in the lobby to be automatically selected, if your pick is taken, then allow these 3 seconds to pop up, otherwise if all three can select their selected pick this phase would be almost instantaneous (yay!)
  • Remove the squad showcase screen after the chapion selection, who cares, you can look at this if you win or while you are dead maybe.
  • Remove aswell the champion showcase screen, WHO CARES... Q_Q

For the actual game, in my opinion it gets old and also pretty slow after sometime playing all the flying stuff as I said -- some ideas:

  • Maybe the ship could be faster so you can get sooner to the spot?
  • Faster flying of the legends in this phase?
  • Ship is closer to the land?

I think some changes to these points could improve the game experience, hope someone from the game staff will look this post.

Cheers!
