I've only been playing since 2 days ago, and I'm on console, but I can say that the only thing I actively hate about this game is the crown mechanic. It is unfun for everyone, I've now got 4 wins (solo) 3 of which were holding the crown one where I was last standing. The one where I was last standing felt 10x more rewarding and exciting than the 3 where I ran around for 45 second and just happened to not die.
And then on the flipside losing to the crown sucks as well, in a 1v1 against a competent player of similar skill with a crown I don't think you should ever win that, and if everyone decides to fight between each other rather than focusing the dude with the crown he's pretty much guaranteed a win. Not to mention how undeserved it feels to explode after 45 seconds because you were the only guy chasing the crown while other people shot at you and/or each other.
Dunno about squad play cause I haven't tried it but for solo the crown needs a major rework or just flat out removing. It's not like camping is viable anyway, I don't see how not having a crown would be a problem in the end game, I'd still certainly push fights and go for kills cause its fun. Not fun is dying to the crown.
