Playing with friends. Terrible idea.
So I play with the same group of 2-3 people night in and night out. In season 5 we noticed we started to have a different experience than normal when playing together compared to playing separately. ...

@TheTrafficKing Premades will be put with other premades
@DaleWWilson95 Theres seemingly no balancing in these premade lobbies though, so if you're a not a team of top tier players you get stomped lol
Kinda thought crossplay would negate this on console but nope lol, ah well nevermind.
I agree, I have had similar experiences. I probably only win about 2-3% of the time when playing with 1 or 2 friends. When playing solo, I win probably about 6-8% of the time. I always have way better numbers playing solo as well (damage, kills etc). All of my 2k+ games are when I play solo.
- @aisthebestletter means your friends suck 😉
- @matzesingt Hahahaha. 🤣
- @aisthebestletter I win way more with friends than without. Currently on 11.5% overall this season. I'd guess eith friends its like 15% for me. We get nasty predator teams in our lobbies and shouldn't as none of us are at that level. We just don't drop with them. Most die off as they hot drop but we keep an eye on who is champion and kill leader as the game goes on. We make sure to fight from good position. Many times we get rolled over but if sbmm didn't exist it would be even worse.
- @MandatoryIDtag Theres no balance at all now from MM loot to legends xD
Y'all are lucky then cause even if i solo que im put in same lobbies with those i play against teamed up.
- @MandatoryIDtag There are balancing. When I get noobs in my lobby, I still get noobs in game, but when I have even one guy with kdr 2+.... aimbot fest!
- guys guys, you’re all wrong.
Games are childish. Respawn knows that and the general public knows it. That’s why ppl who call themself gamers have been ostracized and called nerds, freaks or perverts since the 90’s. Respawn knows gamers don’t have any friends so they make it more appealing to game alone than with friends.
If you group up with someone, Respawn has implemented a ‘prevent this regular person to fall in the gamer pit cause he has friends and is a valued member of society’ countermeasure that pits you against extremely sweaty ppl so that your team won’t play the game again and probably disown you as a friend worse than choosing oddball in GoldenEye, after which point you either go down the rabbit hole alone or go outside and function as a regular person.
Thats the essence of teamplay in Apex. I’m amazed you guys have not realized that yet. Well I’m off doing valued society things. Later nerds
XD

XDI get this is tongue in cheek but many of us are fully functional members of society. Both me and my friends are married with kids and hold full time careers. This is a hobby for me, which is why I'm not a super sweat playing 6+ hours a day for that predator flight trail.
