Please 3rd party complainers, do not ruin this map for me!
Yes, the map allows for a lot of 3rding. But it is a BR and part of being good at a BR is knowing when you can take fights.

@hayhorIm not trying to ruin it for you, but, while third parties are a part of a BR game in Apex it is unhealthy.
It is unhealthy because sometimes you can't calculate the time when to push or not to push.
Why? Because it reflects the mentality of the player base of this game, because everyone hot drops the result is, the third party gets Fourth partied what gets fifth partied and gets sixth partied.
Now that is unhealthy.
Yes third parties are on every BR game, but in this game it is to much. I live in the UK I was able to play the new map yesterday 6 at night, after 3 games everybody hot dropped, while back in the day when Olympus and Storm Point came out everyone took their time to explore, now no.
People hot drop because it requires no skill. Just get a decent shield and gun and its 2/3 kils. If you don't and get knocked just quit, rinse and repeat.
I don't think Respawn specifically designs hot drop spots, they just happen like Estates on Olympus. They need to get rid of the 'Random Loot Building of Random Death' on WE though.
Interestingly, I don't think there's a hot drop spot on KC anymore, since they killed Skulltown, which is why it's probably my favourite map.
@EdwardDLuffy Relic?
@Cheese9Man Relic thankfully isn't as drawing to hot droppers as old skull town, sad that KC it not in rotation this season.
Okay the 3rd parties are insane. The map is huge but the 3rd parties are real bad. Is it because of the zip rails? I love the fights in the POIs though.
- @Cheese9Man I think it's due to the POIs being massive. You can land at one end of them, let the teams that land closer fight and just wipe them out. Plus as I mentioned fights that are going on for awhile are easily accessible. We could go to the SP style where everything is so spread out with giant walls so no one can get anywhere to fight or have this. What would you pick?
