Warzone Firefight and Reqs

I’ve been grinding WZFF since I got the game, early June. I’ve noticed that in heroic FF people generally req in vehicles and power weapons. I almost never have to worry about losing a match there. But in legendary FF, which I’ve only recently started doing, almost nobody on my teams reqs things in. The earlier kill or defend rounds aren’t so bad. You don’t need reqs for those. But if you get a banshee round or ghost round early, people just run at them with BRs and pistols. So many weapons at level 3 that can deal with the early vehicles. Then rounds 3/4/5 people do the same thing. They run at bosses with just loadout weapons. I’m always getting vehicles and power weapons. Sometimes I will be the only person to pull out a vehicle the entire match before we fail. Do people expect to get carried? Or are they saving their reqs for something? Sorry for the long read. I’m just frustrated with playing with so many people that just wanna leech off of others.

Yes, I know I need to find people to play with.

I also see people failing to REQ in Legendary FF for whatever reason.
Not sure why - a warden can eat about 140 BR clips…

I have a hard time REQing weapons in FF because they feel so weak and have such limited ammo. I’ll REQ vehicles as soon as I can, even though 343 likes to -Yoink- over air vehicles with those indoor objectives. The REQ weapons I save for regular WZ or WZA.

I’ve noticed a good amount of low level players, so they may just not have the stuff to REQ in.

In my personal opinion, when you’re low on supplies, you should either do Heroic FF or Arena until you get some more REQs.

Sounds more like a teammate issue over a Firefight difficulty level issue. I get people who don’t use REQ’s and rush the bosses in Heroic as well.

Yeah I sometimes see like 10-40 players, which doesn’t really bother me. They can still req things in that would be helpful but I don’t expect much from them. When I see a SR120 at the bottom I wonder why they’re even here. Yesterday I had a guy with an open mic eating chips the entire match. The chewing and the bag crinkling was too much. I muted him early, the noise was incredibly annoying. I would unmute him every so often and it was the same all the way to the end.

People will use reqs in Heroic because they know they will get some value out of it and probably a win. No one wants to waste reqs and lose so it may be harder to pull them out in Legendary. JIMO

But why play legendary then? If you go into it knowing you probably won’t use any reqs, why potentially ruin it for other people as well?

Higher difficulty firefight modes.

Should either have infinite ammo, or req cards aren’t consumed in firefight.

Infinite : you lose a card but you won’t run out of ammo.

Not consumed: req your last ghost card 10 times in a match still have 1 card left.

^^^^ This

I usually find that higher level players (or those with a lot of reqs) play heroic because of all the lower levels in legendary that shoot at a grunt mech with an AR. Further proves why both Legendary and mythic firefight need a level cap.

It’s not knowing your going to lose but if other people don’t pull out reqs why chance it? Maybe they only they have a few left. It’s just an opinion since I’m not in the same boat. I unlocked everything months ago.

I’ve noticed the same thing but it also seems to be much lower level players and as other have mentioned they probably dont have access to the higher stuff yet.

I think a basics war zone firefight Req pack would be a good idea. Give at least a couple of rare vehicles like the ultra ghost or rocket hog with with some better loadouts.

Firefight has got to the point where a team of high ranks can make minced meat out of an entire match whereas low ranks get trampled just because they only have access to weaker reqs which is a shame as it must be really off putting.

I usually go into Heroic when I’m by myself. The difficulty is low enough that I know I can carry an entire team of low ranks to victory. However, if I have a at least one or two other people with me, I’ll go into Legendary because I know we can communicate and adjust accordingly.

Also, the difference between the two is a little more XP and REQs bonuses.

If you know you’re not going to use reqs, for any reason, be it that you don’t have many left or others, why go into a higher difficulty firefight knowing you will be carried or have a high chance of losing? Why play higher difficulties at all if you think you’re probably going to lose? What I’m saying is that I don’t get why people think like this. Even if I have few reqs left, or I’m on my last tank, I use it.

After all, reqs are meant to be used not kept for collecting

I’ve noticed this too, people in Heroic Firefight seems to req a lot, even legendary weapons/vehicle quite often. Where’s in Legendary Firefight and even sometimes in Warzone people seem to not req for some unknown reason. It’s Warzone, use your reqs people!!!

Makes no sense to me either but some people are that way. If they willing to say things like that over the open mic you almost know your team is doomed especially if they are in a party. I rather not play with them. It’s totally frustrating.

This featured playlist is even worse. So many low levels trying to play and not having or using reqs. I’ve been failing almost every one lately.

You have to remember one thing. H5 is free if you have season pass or whatever it’s called. There’s a whole bunch of noobs playing now that are very low SR. No weapons to pull out. Why they play a game that you have to have vehicles to win, who knows, just for the heck of playing it I guess…
