It kind of can be. I had a game earlier where we landed at the furthest reaches from the dropship. It seemed like a whole half of the map went unlooted and my squad didn't want to miss a single thing. I know better than to run off alone when there's no advantage to it and because of that, I reached the top 2 before I even had a reason to fire a shot. We won in the end with only 3 kills between us.

Deserved or not it was so unfulfilling. I even briefly forgot that I won before I re-queued. I would even go as far as saying that I had a minor bout of victors guilt.

I've played a long list of competitive games but this is one of the only ones where concentrating too much on the objective makes you bored. BR games are not that well suited to common esport conventions and likewise I don't think this game should be taken too seriously either.
