You're just not good enough to hot drop.
I am able to play this game at least a couple of hours most nights. I've played thousands of games total and I am still just completely confused by the number of people that insist on hot dropping. N...

You just gave to abandon games, even in ranked. Wait 10 minutes, you were going to lose anyway. You might make a point and if you don’t you got some return pain as they try to get by in the hot zone with a 2 squad in ranked (good luck with that)
I gave someone a real tongue-lashing yesterday as they decided to jump back to Estates on Olympus, and this was ranked. You could CLEARLY see 18 enemies ALL land before us. You can guess how long we lasted.
I'm getting better at HDing but it's still DFA. The problem is the lack of POIs. There is only one place on Olympus I like to drop (and it was my secret place but now loads of others have 'discovered it'). On WE I only really like Survey, Epicenter or Harvester. On KL there were at least eight places I was happy to drop at.
It was so bad grinding Bronze yday I actually gave up and played COD instead. In a ranked game the JM took us to Trials. TRIALS!!
- @EdwardDLuffy What is wrong with trials? If no one goes with one can loot the top, one can do the inside and one can do the back. If you enjoy sniping the top hidden bins always have your gun.
- @hayhor I get GOING to trials but DOING the trails is just dumb in MHO in ranked, especially if someone hears you and zips in before you've chance to recover from a few prowler bites.
- @EdwardDLuffy It all depends on where the ship goes and if people go skyhook.
@hayhor @EdwardDLuffy 's got it down pat, going there to third party / steal loot is pretty smart. Actually doing the trials themselves is essentially a death sentence. It takes too long, the possibility of getting third partied is way too high cause it's so darned loud, and the prowler's themselves hit like a truck.
