@pastaclown Awwww ☹️ too bad. I told you to not play until couple days after new season dropped. Tonight I was only going to play till I got BP lvl 100 but ended up playing with @GH0STEDbyME for 2 hours...

I was already not in a gaming mood but my gosh my ‘skill’ was lacking severely (because of it), but also because of the randomness that ensued...

Mastiff from 3m on a basically motionless Wraith doing 16 dmg at chest, finding no weapons multiple times on drop... Lag Spikes... Bullets missing...

Then you switch over to firing range and suddenly (because it’s still online but faster connection) everything you mean to hit either hits or you see that you were off... Mastiff hits stuff from over 20m 16-40 dmg >.> (I’m talking ppl, not the dummies) and everything is smooth as a baby’s bottom...

Yea... thats why I ‘hardly’ played this season in comparison to previous ones. Well 5 was also a massive dip.

If @hayhor likes my skill, when you get back (wait... weren’t you pc?!), cause you know you will be XD, we can squad up and I can definitely keep up. You might have to keep up with my rambo actions xD.

  @hayhor yeah PC. I'm not likely to pick this up again, usually it's 3 breaks and I'm gone for good. Unless they put in solos. Have fun in S7!
  @Koochi-Q I know, I know. I just wanted to try and have fun with Apex again. Apex had other plans for me.
  @DarthValtrex I do slow down, but I can really only slow down so much then I just give up. On PC when people are slow to loot their areas / boxes and slow to rotate or take notice of their surroundings, it's a dead giveaway that they're going to get wiped, especially against the high skill players that I routinely played against. Not a single match today didn't have either a Master / Predator / Diamond player / trail. I've only met one person who was "good" at shooting and terrible at looting, and I ended dying and spectating. Dude was cheating, so I promptly quit.
  I wouldn't hold slow looting against console players though, nothing you can do there, the interface is terrible. But on MnK where you can click really rapidly and how quickly you loot depends on how fast you can read, a slow reader is someone who's slow to react / respond, and someone who's slow to react / respond doesn't do well once surprised, and doesn't shoot well overall.

    @pastaclown Yeah the way console is set up it can be time consuming unless you've invested in a ton of time. I think the slowest part is managing inventory from death boxes. But once I have my load out all I grab are attachments, heals and ammo.
    
    I get the impatience. I'm okay with slow players especially if they have a mic. I'll try and help them speed it up.
    
    Some people just go way to fast. I've bumped into a few drop grab first two guns armor and start looking for a fight. They almost always die because they don't have cells/batts and the enemy they bump into does.
    
    But on the flip side you have people who want to check every building and bing at Thermal Station. I'm sitting there going uhh can we go shoot something?
