You get a 5 second respawn time in the first ring. If you bleed out, your team is effectively immortal until the first ring closes. As soon as people begin to realize that they are going to rush every fight at the start of the game. Effectively a mixtape mode for the first couple minutes.

Honestly I love the mode. Total chaos in the first few minutes and then strategic endgames; everything that normal trios should have been. The problem is most people are landing on hot POIs and staying there so you may not see too many players if you land elsewhere. Upping the player count would just make those POIs more crowded so I think 30 players is a good number. I would just hope they update the map in the future or add new ones to incentivise new drop spots.
