Re: Purple Airdrop, where the mess starts

@bosourdThat and it makes Bangs smoke useless late game, everyone has digital threats. This was not a good LTM. It had potential but I'm not a fan of it. I also just want PUBS..

What's the point to floor loot anymore?! You can just craft it or get a purple gun.. No point in running around looking for attachments. 

I just shut the game off for the night. I'm burnt out on platinum + lobbies. I don't want to play this LTM. There is just nothing fun about it for me. I'm at a point in ranked in which I have to try and put together a premade to be competitive. That is difficult because it's hard to find people who 1. belong in platinum + lobbies and 2. are on west coast server in the US. Even if I have a premade I don't want to always play ranked it's high stress and completely different game. 

The LTM has ruined my favorite legend. I don't know who thought forcing us to play an LTM for PUBS was a good idea. But it's not.

    Yep. I hate it too.

    I usually get 30 kills per session. Last night I gave up on 10. All the dumb players go straight to the boxing ring or the blue CP drop and half of them get annihilated. Most games I ended up solo within two minutes. Meet a co-ordinated squad and you're dead.

    The boxing ring is pointless as enemies just wait for you to come out so they can blast you.

    The only thing they can keep from this LTM are the MRVNs, but not carrying bits of them around so you can make your own.

    If tonight is a disaster too I'm taking a longggggg break until PUBS comes back.

    @EdwardDLuffyThe people that drop on the initial care packages are so dumb. There are spitfires, wingman and mastiffs with 2x1s in them. Oh and havocs you cant put a turbo on. The only decent thing is the blue shields. The other night me and a friend would drop near those, do our normal looting and then push and kill the people that went to the drop. We actually had fun.

    But yeah overall the ltm is garbage and being forced to play it is quite a stupid move.

    @hayhorAgreed.. I have no issue making it to the final drops. After that Bang is useless. Can't wait for this LTM to be over. The boxing ring I enjoy, it's not a huge deal to be on the map.. If it's something you don't want to mess with don't enter it. But this care package system and being forced to play it was a really bad idea.

    4 days and 6 hours of it.. 

    We are not the only ones who don't like it, the server is absolutely dead right now. 30 people in queue for pubs, 2 friends online. I typically have 8-20 friends online in apex. 

    I don't think people would hate it so much if they were not forced to play it.

    @EdwardDLuffy I got myself killed on a LL package. Few seasons ago thought I'd be cool and show off my slide skills, sliding under the package drop location.. Yeah I was not so cool after all.

    @DarthValtrex never think of it that way but now I realize it's absolutely true, I've wasted so much time looting from one building to another and then changed fully kitted guns mid-game from CP without a kill...
