At the start of the game when everyone is jumping how come not everyone has a smoke trail? I've had it happen to me over and over where I do not see a single smoke trail following me to my destination and within 30 seconds of landing there is another squad shooting at us.
Community ManagerWhich platform are you experiencing this on and can you record a video of it to post here?
often I will land with my sqaud and all of us looked and we thought for sure no one else was in the immediate area and yet within moments of landing, and sometimes before we get a gun from the building we landed on, there will be enemies. as if they were invisible to us before we landed.

This happens to my friends and me about 80% of the time. When we drop in we look intently for other players to find an uninhabited area. When we land we find we were not the only group and sometimes one of several groups. Which puts us in a place of fight or flee or worse yet surprised when someone is in a building that should be unoccupied. If need I’m sure I could record a clip of this happening.
I have lost count how many times Ive been dropping, done a 360 degree check and made sure NO one was around, land, and all of a sudden a WHOLE squad is on me
I am 99% sure there are times where squads wont render in until they hit low alt because this is WAYYY to consistent for me to just have "missed them" when scanning
Have seen it happen from time to time but other times they just land way after you do I have a bad problem of not paying attention to the late droppers am to busy looking for loot lol

Only just noticed this thread, and I've had the same happen to me. Only a few times, but still frustrating when it happens.
