@Zero-Loot5 I'll happily accept that, there certainly is a difference between mindsets. However as baldy said, you can't change people's mindsets.
Let's try a hypothetical scenario here, respawn reduce audio distance for gunfire and entirely remove mobility tacticals/ults. Now everybody would have to sprint/jump tower around the map so even if they hear gunfire they then have to make it to said fight.
Simple solution right? Now Let's say a squad of players with extensive knowledge of the map, rotations and drop trends decides "hey Let's go and 3rd party some squads" they can literally just loot preempt and position themselves favourably and then it becomes a waiting game.
It's easily done, frag/skull are both extremely good examples as you can fight both areas until you're the last squads remaining, and more often than not a 3rd squad will jump in.
I just don't see how any in game changes can really limit this substantially enough to appease the masses.
We're still seriously talking about third partying?
Play Arenas. That's all, that's it.
If you don't like third partying, play games with 2 teams. This is not a Respawn problem.
@hayhor Easier to alter the game so awareness isn't required apperently lol. :,)
@MandatoryIDtag Yes, this too.
I mean, my solution is the solution Respawn made, called Arenas. You happen to need awareness there too but you won't ever be 'third partied' So I have to believe this thread is just so people can be angry online. Especially since the OP is 5+ months old.
But, yeah, uh, awareness is actually part of a Battle Royale game, go figure? The challenge of it, to me, it part of the entire appeal, such as moving and looting and other things besides shooting (which is also fun).
Apparently, however, when all these things go wrong, it is apparently a problem for the game. Despite being a Battle Royale, we should all just stay put, be loaded with loot, and shoot only one team at a time down a narrow street. Then we get reloaded and healed and face the next team, and as long as enemy weapons can do us the favor of not doing damage while our weapons do lots, we can call ourselves champions and be Apex tier and somehow be proud of ourselves.
Anyway, there is Apex Legends Arena, like I said 😉
Third partying happens in high plat / diamond+ so people who are against lowering gunshot volume should state their rank before commenting thanks
@KarvaRausku it wasn't even that bad up until S3, S4 is when the real nosedive in audio quality began as far as i'm concerned. 5 seasons of sketchy audio has gotten pretty tiresome to be honest.
I mean hell it can even be a problem if you're not being third partied, the amount of times I've been silently rolled by a team flanking via a silent zipline is actually beyond a joke.
