I'm not describing some crazy hot drop scenario here. Landing in a different part of a large POI with one other team, looting up, and fighting the other team is widely considered to be best practice in ranked Apex. This secures initial KP that grows in value through the end game as you then proceed to rotate carefully to and avoid risky fights. I think that we are coming from such fundamentally different points of view about how to play the game that I'm not going to try to argue with you, because I don't think we are going to arrive at a point of agreement. Respectfully, I think that we will just have to agree to disagree. Good luck out there!
@pandareno1999 sabotage is what respawn says it is, and they do not say ratting is sabotage, and until they do, any ratting reporting is just a waste of everybodies time, including your own. Tbh it seems a bit petulant to me.
Also it's all well and good if you are part of a premade trio or duo, and you are well used to playing togeather in ranked, finding out how to work togeather best to do well, not everyone has that luxury.

@OldTreeCreeper
As I described, we pinged our intentions multiple times, while random third communicated nothing of their intention not to help, despite having ample time to do so.
You have a point! I have literally never once solo queued in ranked, for this reason. You're a lot braver than I am on that count! I don't have the stomach for it.My bud has solo queued to Masters multiple times, and our ranked win rate together this season is somewhere around 15%. So, I'm comfortable believing that our approach is not a bad one. I will respectfully bow out of this conversation now, as I'd prefer not going around and around the same argument. As for the report, I will concede your point and let it go there.
- hayhor3 years agoHero@pandareno1999 While I agree the whole contested team drop is what a lot of people believe in there are lots that believe in looting full POIs by themselves before rotating and taking fights. And this is not just poor fighting players. I've watched lots of nicewigg and rogue ranked matches in past seasons and they much prefer getting fully kitted before moving on other teams.
As you said the other guy could have said no to moving in. Maybe he is just used to having to play on his own and assumes that's how it will be. Or maybe he was afk for a bit.

Where can we find this? I have tried to figure out what exactly constitutes "sabotage" since reporting was introduced. Never had any success.- OldTreeCreeper3 years agoHero+
@CCbathwater I understood it to be about addressing griefing when it was introduced, but I can't remember the source.
Clearly it's not about a player going their own way otherwise there wouldn't be a solo drop option.
- CCbathwater3 years agoSeasoned Ace@OldTreeCreeper Well, that's kinda the same thing. What is and what is not griefing to Respawn?
