Why do my squad mates die in seconds?!

@swift07 This season seems even worse than the last one. I really need to just play ranked I think. Is that better?

@aisthebestletter Maybe their G-Fuel ran out

@aisthebestletter I consider myself average with a KDR around 1.0 but honestly that is me more often than I can handle. I'll drop and find absolutely nothing in an entire building and then get melted by a 3 stack as soon as I see them or I'll just lose an exchange because I start firing a millisecond later than the other guy & they don't miss a single shot. HAPPENS ALL THE TIME!!!
People say Apex has a longer time to kill than other games but I honestly think that only applies to me. I'll unload entire clips into people but they'll get away whereas I die immediately before I even have a chance to react. It is infuriating!
So yes, a lot of the time it is matchmaking putting lower level players in lobbies they have no business being in. I see players with KDR's over 4.0 and I just wonder exactly how that is even possible. I also wonder why this freaking game teams me up with or against them because it is HORRIBLE matchmaking to do so. Not fun for me & not fun for my squadmate(s). Arguably it is fun for the people that kill me immediately, but I also think those people are @$$h0le$.

@aisthebestletter It because these 14 years olds think they will be the next streamer god if they just drop hot and try and take on 9 v 1 until it "clicks" which, is, you know normal for the age of poor life choices.

I find I get slightly better matchmaking prior to noon local time, but only slightly. The game still gives me the teammates with less than 20 hours on the game...

I'm already considering uninstalling again. Apparently the only way to get good matchmaking is to uninstall, walk away for 30 to 45 days, and then come back and the game thinks you are "new" for a little bit.

@aisthebestletter Y'all hot dropping? Are they charging into fights solo? Are they not properly communicating their movements?

All of those are recipes for quick deaths lol.

@Lord_Scorpion34 Nope, that is the sad thing. These seem to be normal engagements but they always go down straight away.

@aisthebestletter ranked is * right now. You'll get 2 lower ranked players for teammates. Also, KC is got to be the worst map. All people do is hide on high ground and 3rd party. KC is dog doo doo.

@aisthebestletter simple they can beam while im still learning how to beam back ( 200+ matches and still going )
