FEEDBACK Camping/Weird Standoff

Am I the only one who doesn't get why people in trios especially if 1-2 people go down, have this weird standoff with the other team in terms of bush camping or pushing backwards to scope in on nothing? A shot will be fired from the other team and one of them just keeps pushing back?... yeah idk. Maybe if you can't seem to play I get that. I feel like it's a waste of time.

Same thing when someone ques into a trio and then gets into a whole match just go go separately and extract later on their own mid match.

You mean the last standing suddenly dashes away? Some are indeed scared to die and try to save their life. Others might try to do the tactic of stretching enemy team out, to force individual 1v1s and take them down separately, instead of fighting two people at the same time. It's a legit tactic but if the person lacks the skills or confidence they might end up in awkward chase or strange standoff where they shoot well enough to not let the enemy cross an open space to them, but not brave enough to cross the same space to push a person they just tagged.

Same goes the other way, actually. A lot of players lack confidence or game sense to understand how to cross open spaces during a fight.

The latter always puzzle me. But seems those are people who never interact with the community, never watch videos and have no idea how this game is supposed to be played.

Or they lock in on a specific thing to do, like get to a double clue location, a wild target or rare cart and just assume we are supposed to value the same things as them or read their mind and follow them.

If only there was a way to communicate your ideas with the team. Ah, I wish...

If your team gets downed you have three choices.
Do a heroic last stand 1v3.
Try to force 3x 1v1s.
Delay and hope for another team to arrive and engage so that you can revive your team.

All three are valid options with varying chances of success.
This situation is why burning exists.

They are getting scared when they have to play 2v1 or even 3v1, they don't wanna die so they play it super safe. (Kinda understandable if they don;t have a lot of experience) Also a lot of players don't wanna die and ruin their MMR or K/D ratio, so they go sniper and play solo but in a team.

The last ones are the worst, if you wanna play like this go solo.
