The Elite Experience!

So we got this cool Badge that increases the number the more conclusive top 5 games you play.

My experience so far:

When playing with a premade squad and just pushing everywhere people are firing a gun this is easy to go higher and higher.

BUT the servers are terrible and at some point a teammate disconnects.

/Bye streak

Even when your not disconnecting eventualy you will meet a cheater and lose it that way.

Or have bad RNG at the drop.

No one can beat a guy with blue armor and a devotion with just his fists.

So the number in the badge has absolutely no value to me.

And i can't be arsed to play for it.

And when playing premade we enjoy the game like we always did.

But at some point i have to play this game solo.

Now is when you Experience $$$$$$$Apex elite$$$$$$$!

All those Elite players that typ or tell you right at the start of the game:

I'm running away from every fight untill im in Top 5.

Even when they don't typ that, You can tell they are obviously just trying to stay alive by running away and hiding.

Before this event i have NEVER seen 15 squads alive when round 1 starts closing.

Now its normal.

Skulltown / Bunker are deserted a lot of the games.

Getting me up when im downed?

HELL NO! Teammates go sit in a corner and hope they don't see him.

Teammates getting pissed at me for shooting a gun in a shooter.

Even when we have ALL the advantige over the team im shooting.

Please don't ever do a event this way again.

You have a verry nice Unique fast phase full of action BR game.

But now its one big hide and seek fest full of cowards terrified of losing their 2 top 5 streak.

And queing this game solo is even worse then it was before.

I think people forget that the goal of the game is to SURVIVE and be the last squad standing. You get rewarded more for STAYING ALIVE.

..So yea, teams that are running and hiding and popping out and ambushing, they are doing it correctly.

I absolutely love that in elite mode, drops are EVERYWHERE on the map, instead of just the first few seconds. Everyone plays cautious, and it makes for a much more intense game.

I'm lovin' it!

So you are saying you got your (super impressive) streak by camping in storm lol that’s cute you are the type of player op is talking about but have a nice day because I will not respond when you start talking about how you don’t camp in the storm when that is the only way storm damage would bother you and apparently it bothers you lol
Nah I think you're wrong to assume that the only reason someone would think new elite storm damage is overtuned is because they camp in storm.
Yesterday, I dropped, won a fight, and then had to run to ring a.s.a.p. to make it.
I was literally a few meters away form the ring's edge when storm caught up to me, and those few meters were too far to make it in.
This was the first zone shrink, and I could not even make it back in despite being a stones throw away. With current ring damage. You automatically lose if you drop on the wrong side of the map.
You land, and simply because your squad got tangled up in combat with another team, you won't make it in time anymore, and if there is no other team where you landed, you're not even allowed to loot anything if the ring is far.
You have to start running right away, only to find empty buildings, already ransacked by the time you're in the ring, leaving you with barely any gear to fight the remaining teams.
It creates a drastic need to all drop dead center of the map, bad for the game.

Everybody being cautious makes a more intense game?
getting 3rd 4th 5th 6th and then 7th partied looting bullets during the fight and heals just to keep shooting.
And somehow winning!
THAT is intense.
Sitting in a corner raising your hardbeat becouse you hear enemy footsteps and he may see you, Is not intense if you have more then 500 kills in total and a little experience.
Seeing a enemy team and waiting for the perfect shot. And then you see it 6 teams left!!!
NO lets wait with the shooting untill another team dies
Intense man!
The only Intense thing about camping the whole game is when you don't win it you wasted 17 minutes of your life.
So i can imagine the last fight feeling intense!
Im not complaining because killing camperhungry streak kids is hard, but because its NOT.
When the last team you have to kill is a campersquad with white armor, Alternators that can't hit a single shot.
And that happens game after game after game.
Something has gone wrong somehwere...
