If You Drop Solo on the JM

Good luck! I'm tired of getting people who break away almost as soon as the game starts. As soon as I see someone drop solo they instantly go on mute for everything.Everytime it happens my motivation becomes survive longer than them. And I hate that lol.

    @Lord_Scorpion34 Can you really blame them ? It’s all about experience, an most of the time it gives Jm to players who have absolutely no clue how to do it so either fall really slowly , don’t ping anywhere and expect you to just know where to land , jump backwards late and land somewhere already completely looted , ping somewhere over 1.5k metres away then drop instantly and land over 700m short etc etc .

    If the jump master calls a decent ping then most of the time the players that have broken off will land there with them , but faster and not all in the same building scrambling for the same loot .

    Personally It annoys me so so much more when people refuse to break off.

    @Lord_Scorpion34 Wait solo jumping or solo option only... I don’t trust anyone’s jumps so I solo option and jump with them if they say a spot that’s ridiculous because it has passed or something, I’m not going. If they actually going, I’m leaving. Or jumping 1000m to a spot that’s in our trajectory >.>

    @Lord_Scorpion34 I've stopped playing with people that drop stupidly. I simply leave the game. The ones that go alone to a different spot are just going to die and leave anyway.

    @Lord_Scorpion34 I had a duo do this tonight.. I thought I was jump master and left for sorting factory then switched to launch site..

    They proceeded to talk in chat about how they hate solo jumpers... Uh ya'll are the ones who jumped solo I pinged where I was going.. You two went to frag.

    @Koochi-Qjumping beside the team is fine. I mean those people that just leave & go their own way regardless of where you pinged. The only place I hate dropping is Frag. If I see them go there I break off, drop somewhere close, get what I can & join back up with the group. But these people solo hot drop (which I'll never understand) or they drop on a completely different sidenote the map.

    @MassiveVernonno that's not the case with the solo jumpers I'm talking about. And if you don't trust your JM maybe request to be JM at the start? Either way you're already damaging your team's chances of winning or getting far in the match if you split up right at the start of the game.
    This is why we need solos cuz they talk about it being a team game but people barely know how to be teammates lol. These days if I play solo seems like I'm playing more by myself than with whoever I'm paired with so might as well let us play solos & I'm not talking about no stupid no fill option.

    @hayhor well I don't leave Ranked matches & last night they dropped solo in Ranked. Dude even told me I was going to die before putting him on mute. So then my motivation becomes outlast my team which isn't what you want for a "team game".
