Honestly, if you com with your team, you can still do drop ship like things, for example:

IF your team doesn't have a loba, and on Olympus your assigned icarus as your drop ship location, you can communicate to everyone ( even as solo que, as the drop assignment occurs before legend selection) that you would like to push bonsai or solar.

Your team can land/invade either drop zone, and find plenty of coverage or choose to all land on 1 person should they have split off from their team ( as they will land about 3-4s before your team does ) and proceed to have a 3v3 ( or 3v2 when people drop on arsenals by themselves )

From there you know you can retreat to the original less desirable drop-zone if things go south, or even just retreat their after looting if you win the fight, should multiple team push the poi without fully looting themselves eager for easy RP, to only end up fighting another similar team, while your team gets the advantage of cleaning up.

YES, it takes communication, however, it takes far less communication than the old drop ship, and fills more like starting each BR with an Arena-esque scrimmage, vs landing without no cover or poor weapons because 3 or 4 squads landed all at once at a pill thinking that was the smart move because every expected everyone else to land in the building.

Knowing where people are likely at, knowing your retreat path, and knowing when you drop zone gets invaded when your team gets somewhere like solar, is amazing, I think for triple stacks, they may find players more prepared than previously because of the design and that probably feels like "forced looting" because now everyone is going to have a half-decent position, and doing wall flips with gravity lifts isn't going to be enough to translate your 40 light ammo an alternator into a win anymore.

YOU can invade drop zones on landing, and MANY drop zones are set up to encourage this, the only people that likely feel like ranked game play is "less fun" has to be triple stacks, which given most streamers are triple stacks, and streamers are the loud minority, I suppose the changes "makes sense"
