I'm so used to playing with that booster on that it feels awful to not get full inventory on respawn
Honestly! Spawning in with only two grenades is terrible
Yeah if no one runs the booster, I immediately call in the resupply when we land. 2 grenades and stims is some bullshit.
Wait. That's not how you're supposed to play? Bullseye a bug hole/bot fab with your pod, clean up stragglers, drop a supply (on a hole or other stragglers) and then call for your support weapon/jetpack... Then, begin the mission.
Right? 🫠
I try to avoid dropping hot if I can, just because it sucks so much ass to get rocked by heavies before you can call down your support weapon. Still, it does feel gangster as hell to land in and murder a whole patrol before they can call in backup.
Yeah, I hear that. It's not every time, but there's just something about riding that bullet through the entire atmosphere to orbital strike the fuck outta a POI and jump out swingin'. I've had my share of Chargers and/or Titans waiting outside the door, but still: the looks on their faces before I'm wet paste? Worth it.
I mean, 20 respawns, 4 players...
In a 30 minute match you're getting a single free supply pack every five minutes. Max benefit averages over the team if you use all respawns.
There's better options.
It's almost always better to take something consistent than something that only helps after a certain thing happens.
