Platinum lvl 4, is it the n00b rank?

Why players always want to land where everyone lands? And isn't the objective to rank with RP? Am I missing something? The eagerness to fight, the landing spots where everyone lands and everyone dies, why?

Every single game with randoms it's like they purposely thrown the game, they pick terrible landing spots based on loot and not how many players will land there, if we do land somewhere safe they loot half assed and immediately go hunting for other players that probably took their time to gear up and end up losing to them or as almost always a 3rd party while fighting.

I kid you not I have queue solo and gotten more RP per game just surviving than queuing with other players.

What is wrong with random players?

  • @dioangel The majority of Plat players are stuck in Plat IV. That's because a great amount of them are actually Silver players that got carried there by a friend. So they know they don't stand a chance winning against more skilled people, so they just play as if it's a normal pub game. I feel you, but don't give up. 3/4 days ago i reached Diamond solo queuing only and it was really satisfying. Once you get to Plat II  you should get sometimes better teammates that at least have some common sense, at least that's what happened to me.

    Players who don't solo queue will never understand why I desperately want rank demotion protection removed.....and before you get your panties in a bunch, make it 1 full rank only, or 4 tiers, or 5, 6....wtv it takes for higher end players to not be able to farm, it's not that complicated to implement, and would help solo queue players immensely.

    If you're playing like a silver, or gold player in Plat 4 lobbies, you should be demoted back to gold if you're constantly throwing games.

    Said this numerous times, for every good game, the next 10 games are trash.

    @damsonwhufndthis :D not at all, surround sound is broken in the game at least from what I have read and experienced.

    Switching to stereo game me huge boost = I finally could play Apex with somewhat directional sound as any other FPS game before it.

    p.s. probably unless you play on 5.1 / 7.1 speakers 😉
