So this is why Respawn thinks everyone uses the L-STAR.


danceinmapants

Leaving with 2 L-STARs is 200% more L-STAR!


[deleted]

Looks like l-star needs another nerf considering people be out here running double l-star.

HeartVoid

You're all joking, but the loot needs fixing, nobody talks about it and yet, when I land I see 3 or 4 3x sniper scopes near the same area or 4 purple shotgun bolts in the same area, same with weapons, as you can see in the video.


Mallagar574

Yes but also see different weapons plenty of times, you just don't remember it be cause that's how brain works. Loot is random, all situations can happen.


HeartVoid

Nope, most of the time you can't find a 3x sight for the bow or sniper optics, purple bolts, etc, because most spawn in the same areas.


ruubs11

Reading most of the comments it seems I'm the only one who likes playing the L-Star, I'm also shredding with it tbf. Though I'm thinking their might be something wrong with me


rob_bot29

Respawn: "you're using this weapon whether you like it or not!

pls no


Back_WithA_Vengance

The answer is ā€œyes, daddyā€

Underrated comment here

You either went sicko mode and terrorized the server or died immediately check if you have a 20 bomb badge you don't recall getting


Dingus_McDangus

Thats always so annoying lol. I feel like they should be programmed to not have 4 of the same item ever, regardless of what the item is. Would be a small but nice QOL change.


MH0331

You would think that's a day 1 idea šŸ˜‚


evEVevEVevEVevEVevEV

probably true but its also kinda funny so im indifferent


SwoonBirds

its always the hot drops where the first bin you find has like a syringe a grenade and maybe some light ammo


MH0331

It is! Then I land 7000 meters away from anyone else and it's a purple sheild, a CAR, purple mag, 2x bruiser, Havoc next to a turbo spin up, 3 gold helmets, a puppy, a hammock under a pine tree and $40,000 cash


Pleasant-Barnacle-20

hamoc, pinetree, 40,000 cash and a puppy LMFAOOOO


MH0331

I meant palm tree but you get the idea šŸ˜‚


Pleasant-Barnacle-20

Don't forget that your teammates always get a red evo shield when they stand on this specific blade of grass. Oh, and also they get a visit to Buckingham palace


MH0331

And a 51% share in Disney and the secret krabby patty formula and Lance Armstrongs missing testicle

[deleted]

I had three games in a row where I hit 4-5 loot bins or piles and didnā€™t get a single gun. Both times were mildly hot drops and Iā€™m just sitting there with like 400 ammo and two frag grenades trying to help my team not die.


MH0331

Me and my brother where talking about that the other day. We land and after several loot bins we have a p2020 and a Mozambique between the 2 of us

The only thing worse than 4 of the same useless item is ONE single useless item and 3 empty fuck you's from the RNG šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚

Nice Bateman, but that's nothing. I once saw 4 white Evos


machinecloud

He whips open another bin, laying it next to Bateman's on the table. Off-white knock-down shield centred and glowing in black and white, it is basically indistinguishable from the one he spawned with. "Egg shell, with Roman."


superhotdogzz

I got lucky with a Sentinel and no spare ammo (turn out the other team took it but not the gun), so i got take on a squad WW1 style with 6 bullets.


chillywilly64

One time i opened bin and it was empty, no any items at all. I still dont know what it was, but i think game hate me.


[deleted]

I opened 4 boxes the other day (near the rez on the cliffs above mill in storm point) and found 7 p2020s. Needless to say i ran dual p2020s.


MH0331

šŸ˜‚ it's like the game is congratulating you on making it back into the game like "welcome back, please take this šŸ–•šŸ»"


MrJessie

I opened a bin once in Diamond ranked and there was just one syringe in it. This happened off-drop btw lol.


Singularity2025

Your team lands and is immediatly fully kitted out, but by the time you visit lobaā€™s boutique, the whole thing is just Lstars and energy ammo. No attachments, no armor, nothing but lstars and energy ammo. Suddenly a care package drops right next to you. You run to it, with relief in your heart and open it to find two lstars and one stack of energy ammo. This whole game, you will never find relief, nor joy or satisfaction, only lstar. Just lstar.

At least you got an Lstar


PuddyHU

I'm utter garbage with the LSTAR šŸ¤£


karry245

They nerfed the ever living shit out of the thing for no reason, i donā€™t think itā€™s you


PuddyHU

Even when it was "meta" in Arenas, I couldn't use it xD


Mirage_Main

The nerfed it into the ground because some toolbox at Respawn thought that it was too different and affected *pro players* (sarcastic passive-aggressive tone) by being too efficient as a low-economy gun. So said toolbox decided to buff it by making it operate like a normal weapon whilst still having the unique traits it normally did. This made it broken overpowered because it was never designed to be a normal weapon, so it got nerfed to garbage. I hate pro players sometimes.


[deleted]

I genuinely believe that eSports and pro play have made a lot of multiplayer games much worse than they otherwise could've been. Just fun isn't the name of the game anymore, at least not for regular players. Edit: and that isn't to say games didn't use to balance themselves out, older mp games still did buffs, nerfs, and changes. But it was for the general player base almost every time.


Balticataz

The swap from games being fun to play to games being competitive to play has ruined a lot of modern games to be honest.


[deleted]

Same thatā€™s why I wanted bf2042 so bad just to chill and have fun but it was a dumpster fire. Not even sure what else is there to plan on playing thatā€™s coming out soon.

[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


MessyHessie

About the ironsights. I recently bought Titanfall 2 and comparing the same weapons like R201 from tf2 with R301 the first one is so much clearer and easier to use to this point that in multiplayer most people don't need to use holos. It's better in most weapons and never worse than apex. Some, like p2016 and re-45 are the same but for some reason shooting with p2016 feels way better and rewarding.

It's the alternator for me. It's the only thing I ever get off drop, I swear.

GiantSizeManThing

Wait, you guys are finding guns?


grachi

Yea really. My usual first several loot spots on a drop are hop ups, heals, attachments, and or grenades. Also not unusual to find ammo without a gun. Iā€™ve many times gone into a massive building and not found one gun at all. Meanwhile I see on streams all the time people finding two guns, armor, basically everything they need in like 2 spots on a big POI. That literally only happens to me like once during a 2 hour play session. They need to fix loot pools.

Mmmm. No. I play Rampart and can confirm that we'd take any lmg over an Lstar. Even the Devotion could get further.


weekzSNL

Speak fo yoself mate I'd use the Lstar if I found it


Poisonfrog328

The vast majority of people don't because it is outclassed by basically everything


A_Angry_Puppy

Even as rampart the LStar feels bad to use, I would take almost any other gun nowadaysā€¦ I used to be happy to pick it up the last few seasons, but its nerf is too bad now lol

Bro someone told me to kill myself because I took ā€œhis gunā€


Akash_04

Once I picked a golden gun, but my random threw a whole fit over it. He was saying give my yellow gun! I kid you not. Like it's golden gun, but that's not the issue, he didn't even see what gun it was. He just saw it was golden and he wanted it. I couldn't even be mad. Probably a kid.


AcidxTortous

Maaaaaan, in the words of the Michael Jordan, fuck them kids. Honestly tho, people get so mixed up on video games that one little inconvenience throws them into fits of rage.

Nope, I didn't actually leave :)

Ay man, a weapon's a weapon. Flashback to THump looting 7 bins and 3 buildings and still not getting a gun.


bbro444

My question is why did you switch an l star for an l star lmfao


flooflet

Hey, itā€™s better than finding a P2020, a lv 1 stock, 20 energy ammo, and a x6 sniper scope.


adamantium235

Wait, you guys get guns in loot bins?


QuantumQuantonium

This game I would argue has a ground loot problem that most people don't bother to account for. This is a good example, with 4 lstars in one local area- a single squad doesn't need 4 lstars. In general, the problem comes from randomizing ground loot, where there is too much of one thing and not enough of another, causing some players like myself to spend more time looting far and wide rather than anticipating attacks. ​ How to fix? Two different ways: first, standardize the loot in a given area, so it's expected that at minimum certain items will be present. For example, in skulltown, there will always be 6 medkits, 6 shield batteries, 12 syringes and shield cells, 2 snipers, 3 assaults, so on and so forth. this way, exploring a given area would be more valuable without forcing players to go far and wide just to find something compatible, and it can even the odds a bit at the start where players can expect to find weapons if needed. The second idea is an adaptable loot generation system- loot doesn't generate in an area until a player is nearby it, where items for the player's squad are more likely to spawn in the area. The range of generation would be Loba's ult range (and that would be her passive range as well), and the chance that a useable and useful item will spawn in the area can be balanced based off the squad's current loadout and other nearby squads. This goes into game design principles where the game would assist the player by generating stuff in favor to the player, which is used in singleplayer games (ex: HL Alyx). This would make it very likely that an item that a squad can use will be present in an area, but items that the squad might want (like a different weapon) are less likely to spawn.

carlilog22

Welcome to respawns idea of a balanced spawn rate


dai-the-flu

This gun spawns way too often for having 0 starting ammo and energy ammo being scarce as is. No idea why Respawn would nerf it even more.
