Why Do Y'all Like Hot Dropping?
In Ranked??? I really want to know the reasoning. Sure you might get some kills in the scuffle but you lessen your chances of winning the actual match.

@Koochi-Q Yeah I hate hot dropping in Ranked. Or period really lol. Especially in Fragment. I try not to be the toxic teammate & break off. But if it means I can survive a little longer I just might 😅. But I'll land close by & join back up once I have weapons & armor lol.
That's because you're likely playing with little kids that don't know any better. There's no point or excuse to ever drop on any poi when 5 other teams are already doing it and some are already on the ground! If you do, you are either a pro player of some kind, very young, or a complete idiot, yet this happens game after game after game after game and we die 99% of the time. They must watch too many YouTube videos where they see streamers just run through the whole lobby..
Some people just don't have the common sense to realize their giving out free kills to their opponents like it's Christmas.
- @Sand_spitter Nope, I don't play with kids. I solo queue a ton, but when I play with friends I really don't care where we drop. There are a few locations I don't like on WE because they just have horrible loot. But I'm open to dropping hot, slow or any place. I try and make the best of every round no matter where we drop.
Hot drops can be fun, super intense fighting one squad after another. There is nothing like surviving frag when 8-9 squads drop there. It's really fun if you're caustic and have a loba, life line or wattson on your team. Multiple squads fighting you're trying to keep people out of your building.. stacking up damage numbers and kills.. You finish off the last squad and think wow that was intense! Pumped up and ready to go for the next fight.
Everyone has a different idea of what's fun, nothing wrong with that. If you enjoy hot drops you do, if you enjoy slower PoI you do.. Both are legit strategies to play the game.I get that, but there's no point in doing so if your gameplay can't back it up. Also there's no point in landing in fragment every single match just to get destroyed by teams that landed there a good 10 seconds before you touch down. Good luck finding a weapon, or a shield. I've been in lobbies where this happens over and over and over to no end. I used to get a ton of kids in my lobbies when I was playing on the Bahrain servers and they all did that.
- @Sand_spitter How you or anyone else every expect to leave your comfort zone with out actually leaving it? Dropping hot is by far best practice one could ever get.
Loool! As long as you win the match for us :D
