Re: drop idea

This only makes it fair for the lower skilled players and this coming from a mediocre player. The higher skilled players are now at a massive disadvantage and likely to die to the lower skilled just because they have been 3rd, 4th, 5th etc teamed.

All you are doing is segregating the players into groups and this is where ranked come in. You will settle at you're skill level and play with similarly skilled players.

As this is a battle royale game choosing where to land is part and parcel and you will find all the higher skilled players will tend to bunch up anyway as they are after the good loot as quick as possible to go on a rampage. If you took away the ability to decide I am not sure what you are left with TBH A match between the best of the worst and the best of the best. If evenly geared and not third partied the best of the worst are still massively outmatched.

  • This is hands down worst idea I've read probably ever lol. So, your saying if me and my bronze buddy que in ranked (hes already being forced to play with diamonds at this point) that anyone in bronze will drop in a specified zone and anyone in silver at a different place and gold a different place? I mean...That ruins the whole point of having a SQUAD doesn't it? If the game is forcing you to land in a completely different place than your squad? Plus, what stops the higher tier players from just running over to the noob spot and wiping all of them first? The map isn't going to be sectioned off only allowing certain people, that means after you land you can just run off to noob land as long as you got a gun and kill everyone. Plus this will also make certain legends mandatory since that's what the higher tier players are going to do. They want max value for their ranked points so if they can quickly wipe 5 lower tier players they are going to do it. So here comes lots of path/octane abuse just to get them there as fast as possible.

    Aside from all that the main point is still wouldn't make sense to separate you from your friends or randoms if you don't play with friends or have squad mates online. The point of playing together or playing any TEAM game is to stay close to each other and work together. Logically makes no sense, also you do know the only way to get better at a game is to play with people better than you right? Forcing you to play with people who are equally bad or the same your skill MIGHT still improve but much slower than just playing with people who are better. They force you to adapt, change your mindset, learn the importance of high ground and when to move, communication etc.

    @VisualfEXhow can you eat when you have to move the fork more than once and chew more than once, same lack of logic you have displayed in your verbose reply.

    @gg123xyz Here's a more concise version then : the idea is bad. Part of the skill of BR is choosing where to land and reacting to teams around you that you/the game COULDN'T control.
