Why it is Respawn refuses to address the actual cause of third partying?

they’re clearly aware of the issue, they even stated in the KC map update patch notes that changes were made to “ease third partying”  if you really want to address third partying then all you have ...

I just read a full thread of fools who think they know everything and dont want to listen to concerns that 95% of the player base has complained about.

Third partying due to sound travel distance being to high does not force skill, it does not force rotation, it does nothing but create a game were people in high levels refuse to push. Something you see in most pro games. Please prove me wrong I dare you that most pro games are not 99% camping due to third party issue.

This game doesnt reward you for taking gun fights. It put punishes you. This is even made worse by most updates remove areas you could fall back too. Just look at kings canyon change. Complete garbage

I dont care who you are there is no reason that sound has to travel so far. Espically when in season 9 we still have sound issues with footsteps

@sireladio Where is this number of 95% come from? Is it factual or is it assumption? Because myself and many like myself play this game because of third parties. We want the action. This game is well known and has shined in the aspect of third parties. So I feel the reason it is never addressed is simply because its designed this way and became a thing in apex. I personally love it as do most everyone i know who plays. I guess only way people can get out of third party is rat until last 2 teams. Because third party will never change no matter what is changed in the sounds. People still know points of interest and will always push those. So in the end it would not stop anything.

    @E9ine_AC So,
    What you just said is that you cant win a proper gun fight so you have to hide for third parties?

    This here is the issue,
    This game and the reason many of us started was never third partying. You may have started because you could hide and get a kill here and there but the majority of us played it because it was a game with good mechanics that allowed for fast pace gun fights were having a high level of movement skill made the biggest difference.

    Now the game is who can hide the best and knows map rotations the best. And honestly its killing the game. You can say what you like about so called record numbers but the LFG sites prove far more than just a twitter comment does.

    Season 1-5 you would put an lfg post out and would have 1000s of replies in minutes. Now if you hit diamond good luck finding a team on an lfg site as most people who actually want to play competitive dont play this game any more.
