@NaRnIaaa There are many people who don't even main the game at level 500 and just because some known blue haired streamer gets paid to play other games doesn't add any weight lol.
You always use Ninja as some point to back up your claims. 😛
@1ronKeys I think it has already been explained pretty well from other posts in this thread that due to the repetitive nature and lack of incentive to play that there's no point in grinding it out any further. Quests were really really bad, killing the same prowlers x amount of times for an A4 page of lore that was drawn out over all that time just to force players to keep logging in to collect those chests.. It was abysmal imo. This isn't FIFA, some generic numbers game or something on an Atari where players just appreciated the fact they had the technology to be able to play. MOST shooters, or f2p games for that matter, provide you with an in game incentive you earn as you play whether it's purchasing abilities or upgrading them, unlocking levels/content, skins, a currency or multiple ways you can earn and spend. I'm not saying they should have side missions but something that focuses on and complements the actual game play.
You said it yourself they are releasing S6 in a month. I now have 4 weeks where there's a void as i have already done everything so i take a break like many many others. Now the BR market has all this competition, people are leaving in droves, while some won't ever come back who might have stayed if they had something to offer.
''and this is an absolutely horrific dynamic. You end up playing the game out of obligation instead of enjoyment. The complete reason you play he game has become skewed. playing the game becomes more like a chore/job that you're paying them for the privilege of.''
This is the battle pass! Even getting the next free one from your original purchase isn't enough to keep people here as they've had enough of the lack of content, incentive or rewards.
Being able to accommodate both those who don't play often and those that grind it out regularly is a balance they aren't even close to atm.
@apostolateofDOOMwhy do it for free then?
@NaRnIaaa Because i don't get paid to play video games. 😛
@apostolateofDOOM I commend your efforts and would love to have had you kill me in a game so I could watch you play. 😃
The stat watching is for my personal benefit, demonstrating to myself that I am improving, thats all, not to boast and believe me that I am having fun in.what I am doing.
I do not/cannot see exploits etc so I choose to ignore that they exist and take it as a level playing field. I understand that you have been there and done that and it is too demanding to do it over again and again. But as you were a predator, you have essentially won the game so I can understand why you look at it the way you do.
I am not part of a team and have done my ranked all with randoms or solo, up to diamond in the first season, but it is far too demanding to try and repeat so just to gold for fun now.
@OldTreeCreeper I guess i viewed ranked as a personal achievement like you do getting better and increasing your stats. Wanting that next level up to know if i could or not as i found climbing diamond a long and gruelling process unlike some of these pro teams that did it in like 48hrs but feel i have grown a bit since then although while it's still in this placement priority meta i won't be touching it till something drastic changes anyway.
You're always welcome to join up for a few chilled matches if you're on PC or when we get crossplay. 👍
@apostolateofDOOMso you do it for free, hoping that someday respawn will hire you? or that ea will pay you?
