Re: Why the passive play?

@fg1985bg It's generally what people seem to think is why.

Enemy has high ground and advantage and people think you have to run out into the open and try fight them whilst they have advantage and cover.
If you wait for the ring to force the move then you're "camping".


But otherwise, i don't know... 99% of players im matched with want to leave strong positions to run between 3 squads and fight at the edge of the ring with enemies behind us.
Then when i drop 6 players and these teammates just keep dying and then I die+we lose because can't get out the ring and they wonder why theyre getting no Wins.

I'd love to be paired with cautious intelligent players.

  • @fg1985bg  Well speaking from personal experience, which will differ to others as i play premade. The main factors for playing passive or aggressive for me are as follows;

    -Is my squad equipped to handle the fight?

    -Are we in a favourable position to push this fight?

    -If third partying the duration of said fight, for obvious reasons.

    Playing overly passive can be just as damaging as over aggressive play. It's mainly about maintaining that optimal balance.
