When you gonna shut down these cryptos that sit in their drones the whole match?

Either limit their use or make it like Vantages bird and just take the flying function out.  I think it needs to blow up after 20 secs and after 10 secs in the flight mode it should immediately boot...

Yeah I had Cryptos sitting on the drone... in Arenas. Yikes. 

Like come on, what's the use, really? If you do not find your enemies in front of you, it means that they are on the backside of the map. It is that simple.

Making it like Vantage's bat, or maybe even like Newcastle's shield, is actually a very good idea. You just press A (or whatever button you have binded to it) to move the drone around and that is it. Seems simple.

    @AcidicSoda44031 One of those might have been me, Lol! When I get the weekly challenge to "Scan 10 enemies with Crypto's drone", I just jump in an Arena match, and scan the enemies over and over and get it knocked out in one match, so I can switch Legends. I don't just sit in the drone though. I pop it out at the start of each round to get some scans, then park it for an EMP and move up.

      @dSKyNafinchin I mean, yeah, I guess it can be ok as long as they do not spend too long on it.

      I had an arena match where I had this Crypto using the drone. He knew what he was doing and did not spend too long on it, just the necessary time to locate the enemies. I still find that unnecessary personally.

      Too bad my other Caustic teammate was braindead. The enemies were scanned already, he knew they were there. But he jumped right into them regardless, 1v3, and of all things, he decided to lay traps right in their faces, instead of firing the weapon. And he kept doing that for the next rounds.

      Needless to say, he died instantly. And we lost the match.

        It's really fun playing that once every 6-12 month pubs game with a good Crypto random who knows how to use the drone and fight as well.  A good Crypto who knows how to use their abilities, pays attention to their team, and uses pings is awesome.  It's so easy to push a team when Crypto makes sure you're in range to follow up and pings their ultimate.  Even if they make an effort to do those things, but come up a bit short, is welcome.

        My buddy and I recently had what looked to be a top 10 Crypto kill grinder as a random team mate, but then he solo dropped and was dead in seconds, lol.
