    I just want a solo mode for the times when I don't have two other people to play with. I have been ok playing with randoms, I've won like three games with two randoms as teammates, but I don't really enjoy it as much. It mostly just feels like playing solo, only you don't have total control over what you can do and where you can go because if you don't stick together you're basically DOA. So why not just let us play solo for real.

    I would probably still prefer playing threes even if solo were an option, but only when I have two actual teammates to talk to. I'd imagine a lot of other people probably feel the same way.

    i would put myself at a 50/50 split of good and bad rando experiences at this point. the issue is that now people have been playing long enough to get in their little patterns and refuse to break from them and it’s infuriating

    what pisses me off the most and happens ALL THE TIME: someone relinquishes jumpmaster to me, i pick a spot, and they break off as soon as we leave the ship and go where they want. motherfucker, just stay jumpmaster!

    Yeah the most frustrating thing about playing with randoms are the ones who just go off and do their own thing. People breaking off during the jump makes me so angry, like what kind of success could you possibly think you're going to have alone at the very start of the game when 95% of groups stick together? And then there's breaking off from the team after the jump too. Like, me and the other person will still be looting, but one guy has to just lone wolf it and move on to the next area, get spotted, get shredded because they're alone, and then leave the match before we can get his tag. Come the hell on.

    There are just too many wasted rounds when playing with randoms.

    yeah with randos i drop in a purple spot 99% of the time. if we make it out of there as a trio, i prob have a good cooperative squad. if we get wiped i only wasted 1-2 minutes and try again.

    like i go where the jumpmaster picks 100% of the time even if i see five other teams heading there with us. sometimes those rounds are the most fun.

    I feel like the “tagging” system works great with randos, or at least no worse than voice chat would

    it’s a great system for sure but some love to ignore the shit out of it lol

    i do love the comedy of when someone broke off at the beginning and went solo, and i ping a purple armor where i am and see them start hauling their asses from a mile away hoping to come get it

    I prefer 2 good randoms over 2 friends.

    Sorry.

    Yeah the ping system is great! Too bad probably over half of the randoms I've played with pay absolutely zero attention to it.

    ping spammers are worse than the silent ones. had one that kept double tapping it to say they spotted someone.... there was never anyone there. ever. until there was and I didn't believe them. don't cry wolf!
     
  17. Also, yeah, the only time I ever feel like I "wasted" a match is when I drop, can't find any weapons, and get killed and then thirsted and my team mates don't even come for my banner.

    Dropping hot or on the ship is always my preference because that's how you get better at engagements so the more practice the better. If you can make it off the ship or out of the hot zone with decent weapons, you have a good chance at making the top 3 most of the time ime.

    Yeah if you’re not dropping hot I don’t want nothing to do with you

    I think dropping hot is absolutely pointless, but that's because I like building my loadouts, getting a feel for where everyone is and then going in.

    I get more anxiety playing solos. I love team based games. Especially when we play as a team. I know my role and can execute. Solo I’m a shit show. Baha

    My friends and I do a method of a few rounds dropping directly into the shit then a long round. Breaks up the play styles and gets you some fighting experience.

    I like everyone having their own jobs. Anyone remember the game MAG? Ahead of their time.

    Me and my friends came up with this fuckery one game. Have a Bangalore, Bloodhound and Mirage. Pop the smoke, pop beast mode and then pop Mirage. You have 30 Mirage clones coming out of smoke with a bloodhound stalking the red enemies. Got us like 3 kills one match. So awesome.
     
  24. only time I'm okay with not dropping hot is when the zone is in bridges, cascades, or lower river. Fuck those places. I'd rather go to airbase and/or runoff instead.

  25. hot zones almost guarantee a gold item, good armor, good weapons, hop ups, attachments, and med kits/cells. how is that pointless?
