Played for an hour just to get 25 crafting metals in the event and literally 80% of the lobby dropped at Barometer.At first I said to myself that Respawn should stop making big POIs to stop a lot of people dropping in one spot but quickly remembered that it didn’t stop people from dropping in Estates. LOL! The only solution that I think is possible now is make 2-3 drop ships dividing and spreading out the lobby.This is just as worse as fragment. My usual strat now is to go to Cenote Cave, loot up, then mow down the hotdroppers with P2020s and mozambiques in Barometer. LMAO.Rainbow 🌈

It's either there, Antenna or Storm Catcher (btw why do people want to go to Storm Catcher so badly? It's not even a good spot for looting compared to others).Anyway this issue will never be solved i think, because the average Apex player does not have common sense and logic in his brain lol.

There's a Skull Town in every map.This is why go solo. I mean, streamers are going to cause this, what people think other people do for gameplay is going to cause this, and just wanting to fight is going to cause this...finding the most super populated drop zone and making sure to drop in it with enemies on all sides.GIT GUD, is the dumbest answer ever for this, literally you're killing your own brain cells every time you do this, if you do (try it, you'll feel your own brain cells dying as you do). Said by people usually who, by the way, are not good. If you don't break away from drops or drop alone, you're simply sentencing yourself to your own death. You have a better chance going solo, surviving, even recovering your team (although you shouldn't) than you do dropping in a full team of 3 and fighting with them.This is Apex. It tells you to play as a team, which is the first thing that gets you killed. You play this game as it is designed and you look out for yourself first, then if you choose to pick up your dead buddies, you do, or you carry them to the end while they are grayed out. That is the real design, not the fantasy marketing that Apex puts in its commercials.

@Cheese9Man I've noticed this too, Lmao! Personally, my favorite drop is up at Lightning Rod. There are usually 1-2 teams max, dropping there with me. I have pretty good luck with loot up there, and love that I don't have to spend the whole match fighting uphill, as it is basically the high point on the map. I can move downhill and fight from high ground. I find all sorts of fights when I rotate out of there, no matter which way the circle forces me to go, so it works out fairly well for me

@dSKyNafinchin I like lightening rod too. if it's along flight to get there I'll try and use 2 cannon jumps on the islands east side.

@Cro_Pittt Hate storm catcher too. It reminds me of Market from KC. You have one huge building then you have the roof to fight on.

Storm Catcher is ***. Even landing there uncontested is dumb. There's no loot. You have to go somewhere else to continue looting most of the time. 🤪
I like Launch Pad. Lots of varied loot, usually max one team lands there, and you have easy access to go kill the survivors at Antenna.

@Cheese9Man Stormpoint isn't nearly as bad as frag for me. It happens once in awhile but frag happens every time.

In my games barometer is hot if it's near the ship start. Otherwise the tattoine buildings usually have 3 or 4 teams. Ive noticed some people drop there no matter where the ship starts. Antenna is hit or miss. There might be 5 teams or there might be none. It's really weird.

stormpoint has grown to become frag2.0, a lot more hotdropping there then other zones now, and I understand why, if you dont you can run around for 15 minutes seeing nothing but wildlife trying to bite your head off.

@Cheese9Man I played for 1 hour and 45 mins this morning on SP....and 90% of the drops - this is exactly where I was stuck going. It is without a doubt become the Fragment 2.0

Already sick of it.
