“I wish it dropped a couple minutes later instead of within 2 minutes of the game starting, I think that would balance it out better,” suggested Redditor Bwash407, who complained about running into players who’d camped the drop for at least 10 minutes.
Other players suggested that the new timing “disincentivizes landing hot” and “ruins the early game” as players aren’t fighting over loot. “It’s too quick and promotes people to just camp loadout for kills. There’s no real need to loot/do contract if you get loadout in like 30 seconds,” added ClapBackRat.
For some players, the free loadout isn’t an issue, given that they largely ignore it anyway and just keep away from the fights that occur around it.
However, there is a clear desire for change from some, and they’d like to see a tweak sooner rather than later. Though, that falls on Raven, and we’ll have to wait and see what happens.
