Oh lets stand at the edge of the ring miles away from the circle and have a long range fight using an LStar leaving us to ve pressed by the ring and a major choke point.Oh lets leave the safety of the circle to chase someone near the edge of the ring and get downed and be unable to crawl to the out of the ring get elimmed and quit despite res possible.Oh now we're in final 3 with only 2 of us, rather than staying safe, you want to push a 3man squad in a building locked down by a caustic whilst a 3rd part is outside the ring.I really can't understand how astonishingly 'illogical' some players are.Why?? Don't these youtubers teach them anything useful or just the latest glitch?

@1ronKeys Nahhh, I just think they’re not even considered as a darwinian species... note... even single cell species belong to that list in some degree.I had one yesterday. I for whatever reason am so fortunate that since the return of map rotation that I always do my dailies on KC (seriously... only have had like 4 times when it was on WE and 3 of those 4 times it was for less than 10 mins so I always did stuff and return 4 KC). We are 150m away from Mirage Voyage towards the harvester direction on the railway above that ‘town(?)’ below. I just finished the last 2 while my teammates struggle with 1 person. Okay fine, no big deal.Below us was another battle raging. I ping that there are ppl there and I think I even said that I’m not engaging (2nd storm was already rolling in and was closing near fragment). These suckers start engaging while storm is like 10 secs behind them. I leave both of their butts behind while saying “have fun dying in the storm you idyots” and fly towards the tunnel in trainyard. Suddenly I see a path at the end waiting for squads to come through (not even being inconspicuous), so I do the merry-go-round all the way to that tunnel separating skyhook from the rest and slide towards fragment... all this time I was already in the storm and had to use 4 syringes & 2 medkits...When I was at the tunnel with the path I pinged them in case one of the teammates actually made it so he’d know someone was there and I think I even said that someone was waiting. While there one teammate died... other died when I was at the other tunnel and almost outta the storm.So yea... you’re not alone 😜

Good thing that my WiFi is down from the last two days. I have a cellular data connection too with a speed around 8-12 Mbps. Unfortunately, It doesn't work if I try playing Apex on Singapore servers but works on Bahrain. So I didn't have to deal with any of this crappy nonsense. Funny thing is I get 120-130 ping on Valorant SEA servers with 0 packet loss or any lag, so I have been playing almost 6 hours a day. I had my fair share of trash talks by some peeps there, but I find it funny lol. Anyways, you guys keep on dealing with this *. But I still wanna play Apex. Oof the addiction.

@MandatoryIDtag Valorant is good if you're looking for competitive gaming. Having a good team is essential(at least from what i saw until now), so i think that playing with randoms may be as much frustrating as in Apex lol. They're thinking about bringing it on console but for now there's nothing official yet, they still don't know if that's a good idea.

@Cro_Pittt I don't mind playing with bad teams to be honest, i'm just finding the utter lack of games on console that suit my taste pretty underwhelming lately lol.I actually started playing PUBG again too recently just to give me a bit of a break from apex.As much as i love apex the games just frustrating to play for me this season lol.

@1ronKeys Today, I saw a man whose name contains "hacker". :OAnd yes he was my teammate.(But he immediately be killed by the enemy after the drop.)Then I saw the teammate of AFK BOT. :OYou know... it seems that he was using some scripts.He only went right and left, then died in the outside of the ring.After that I was so pessimistic... 😢Then I was speaking myself "I saw too many toxic guys today..."But then my teammates were really good!He said "oh, I am not so toxic 😉".Thank you men! You helped me a lot and we won!

@Koochi-Q I only know that there is a sort of SnD mode. 25 rounds(yea i'm not joking lmao), each one lasts 100 seconds i think, and the first team to win 13 rounds wins the game. There's also the shorter version of this, with 7 rounds.
Apparently there's no sbmm there for now, so you have the risk of getting slaughtered by the pros xD.

@Koochi-Q Well, I was playing on mobile data so the ping will always be high. I get the same on Apex with a cellular data connection. And there is no list of servers on Valorant except the fact that I play on SEA servers. They did say they will add servers in my country in coming future, unlike Respawn/EA.

And my WiFi is up and working now. So 80-90 ping now. That's the best I get unfortunately due to location differences.

Had a teammate yesterday who rushed ahead twice. This was in Ranked, as well, so the first time he immediately ran into a house where there were enemies and got downed. We got his banner and revived him, and then he literally did it again.
He ran off towards Cage, except I followed to make sure he didn’t die. It was kind of funny, since we both turned on our mics at the same time. I told him not to rush ahead, while he was telling us to keep up with him. But then we all died because we got sandwiched between two squads.

I think it depends of the hours of the day that you play! Some hours it’s just kids playing for fun. Some hours it’s just adults playing serious game. Try finding golden hours on your server. For instance I usually get much better random teammates early mornings (6-8 am) and late nights (1-2 am) on London servers.

@Alphabets I'm playing similar times to you but i get this issue.

I had one gane where 1 of my teammtes seemed equal to me - and we slapped the lobby to pieces.

I don't even consider myself some great player... but I'm always the best player on my team.
Any time I get a player or two like myself it's wins.

@Cro_Pittt I dont have a pc... that I use for gaming at least... but in case it comes to console and there’s still not much mp wise.

25 rounds XD they really want to keep you on your seats dont they. Lolz I really dont care about SBMM. Due to Apex’ flawed system I’m used to having bonebrained teammates, but at least valorant’s different.

@BaldWraithSimp ahhh that way. Tell me how matches are going on later on and if you do better 😈 if not 100 push ups! XD.

@Koochi-Q I had some good rounds but most of them were bad. I don't stand a chance against the shrouds with their snipers lol.

25 rounds in Valorant is actually the worst-case scenario when both teams are toe-to-toe. So whoever reaches 13 round wins first and teams will switch between attacker/defender after the half. You can win by 13-0 too lolz. But a match on average takes 30-40 mins. I played for 5 hours straight, took a break to eat then 3 hours again. I am so tired now xD.
Played Apex for one and a half hours before that too. 🙂

I haven't played this title for a week after purchasing MK11. And after doing so instantly became annoyed after 2 games. This title by far and I can say this with confidence has the most selfish, absent minded individuals that one has ever had the displeasure of playing with.
You would figure that people knowingly playing a game that is so heavily reliant on team mechanics would understand this and do anything possible to increase the odds of winning. However with Apex Legends this doesn't even seem to cross the mind of the majority.
There's ZERO team cohesion with anybody unless playing with premades. An individual has a 5% chance of winning given there are 19 other teams to contest. Toss in bad servers, bad RNG, legend abilities, no teamwork with other variables and it's a wash. The title sounds good on paper. But when executed is just a mess.
After playing for the 5th season now will probably hang the title up. There seems to be little to no improvement on how this team based game works. With all technical issues aside that aid in this wreck. The people who play are just the cherry on top.
It was a good run while it lasted. However the frustration that comes with is not worth it anymore in my eyes.
