Welcome to Apex. This is something that they've been allowed to do for about... 4 years now. I had to completely leave BR because of it being unplayable due to this.
Why they do it? Beats me. I often hear "I want action, I don't wanna loot for 10 minutes". Well, then they could go on Mixtape with the rest of us, but they still go on BR, eventhough the game obviously wasn't intended to be played this way, i.e. there's basically a POI for every team, maps would be far smaller if this was intended, you land without weapons, and so on. So I call it's done to ruin the experience of those who actually wanna play the game.
Also never understood why it either has to be random bingo of who lands on the shotgun and purple armour, and who lands on a Longbow and P2020 in Fragment, or looting for 10 minutes. Back when I still tried to play BR, I did neither of the two.
Then you have people who go "it's just pubs, go play ranked then". Ranked is however also plagued by issues. First of all it has ranks, silly points, and thus people who get bend out of shape when you don't care about their points, and refuse to sit in a house with them for 3 rounds because they play Caustic and Wattson.
Then there are ranked seasons where the points are focused more on kills than placement, and then everybody drops Fragment, just like in pubs.
Good luck getting to play the actual game on BR, or just join the rest of us on Mixtape. 😏
Edit - Oh, and you're new, so you're probably far from lvl 50 anyway, so you can't even try ranked. Guess you're just stuck until next season when they lower lvl requirements for ranked to lvl 20 or whatever.
