Why the passive play?

This isn’t some dig on camping or very slow play ...It’s just a question to people that play that way. It seems to be more prevalent this season which is weird since the map is pretty condensed. ...

Why does everyone assume that running into every fight is playing aggressive? It just means being stupid. That’s not what I meant at all. My topic was directed more towards the reasoning behind avoiding all confrontations through out. In my personal experience As a strictly solo player I’ve experienced that far more then any other season this year. I was curious as if sbmm had made players more hesitant to engage for fear of being wasted.

@fg1985bg It's generally what people seem to think is why.

Enemy has high ground and advantage and people think you have to run out into the open and try fight them whilst they have advantage and cover.
If you wait for the ring to force the move then you're "camping".

But otherwise, i don't know... 99% of players im matched with want to leave strong positions to run between 3 squads and fight at the edge of the ring with enemies behind us.
Then when i drop 6 players and these teammates just keep dying and then I die+we lose because can't get out the ring and they wonder why theyre getting no Wins.

I'd love to be paired with cautious intelligent players.

@fg1985bg Well speaking from personal experience, which will differ to others as i play premade. The main factors for playing passive or aggressive for me are as follows;
-Is my squad equipped to handle the fight?
-Are we in a favourable position to push this fight?
-If third partying the duration of said fight, for obvious reasons.
Playing overly passive can be just as damaging as over aggressive play. It's mainly about maintaining that optimal balance.
