Make Apex playable again
Dear Apex Legends Team, For more than a year, the difficulty in the pubs lobbies got so high, that I had the impression to play in Ranked modes in a Maters / Pred lobby. I, as a casual that just wants to have some fun after a hard day of work think that since you followed the policy of making this game "competitive" think that the game is unplayable anymore. It is awful to run into enemies stronger and better and faster than you while me myself am matched with total beginners for a certain reason. You have to fix the casual pub mode it should NOT feel like I am in a lobby full of sweats. Please do sth about it because I think that I am by far not the only one who thinks so and a large portion of your game fans would turn their back on Apex forever, notentiining they it will be increasi
MAJOR ALTER REWORK
First off add 10-15 meters on her tac but the this that should change the most is how her tac works. Now say I shoot my tac at the ground in front of me that doesn’t teleport down but forward. Make it teleport the same distance as it would make a teleport trough a wall. Like right now it would be teleporting 30 meters in front of me. This would change how she plays in kings canyon and really any flat environment that doesn’t have walls or multiple floors. I feel like this would change a lot of how she plays and it would be really good for her, as you seen in her opening trailer she shoots her tac at the ground and it comes out of a near by wall, so it’s been shown to be able to do small things like that too.Game infection rate (actual!)
As per https://www.ea.com/games/apex-legends/apex-legends/news/showdown-anti-cheat-update Respawn states something that is called "infection rate" of games and for S25 it has been 6.1 and 7.6% accordingly. As per usual terms used on the message are not defined, vague: does these figures mean % of players per game? of is it "at least one hacker" per game % or is it calculated like average e.g. 100 hackers play out of 1000 players per day = 10% infection rate? Well I went and found out as this has been hardest P4-P1 grind IN MY LIFE since season 7!!!! (started ranked in season 8, made P3 instantly out of 6+ years of no gaming...now I have to sweat in P4 :D) -> So here you can see picture with all the games played during today's grind with explicit names of what happened, time recording take (GMT+2 timezone). To sum up: 12 out of 25 games with 100% at least one blunt hacker / hacker 3stack 8 out of 25 games with possible hackers So already right here we have a rate of infection ~20/25 = 75%!!!!!!!! (maybe Respawn put comma in their data by accident :) ) Additional info - in NA I got 6 games out of which a) Top cheating 3stack was present in 4 of them no matter how fast I requeued for the games nor placement (10+, 5th, 3rd...) same champ squad b) loads of names were in the server again and again = clear indication for me that even in NA East when queuing from EMEA you don't get enough players while game data states 75K+ active users :D c) loads of Russian players playing EMEA and in most cases hacking...just saying I don't know where the data from the link comes from but came back as S1, went through Silver lobbies with 5+ average kills, started seeing first blunt hackers already in Gold!, Plat is just crazy... I have never seen in all seasons since 8 when I started ranked that lobbies are so much infested... My personal challenge is to persevere and go into D4-D3 if possible and see what will happen there = if in Plat I get 75% games with hackers...blunt hackers I can only imagine. Respawn...I can only evaluate your ability to fight hackers as very very disappointing + what adds to the insult (experience in game) is your "fake marketing". If you are interested in these recordings, let me know, will gladly send them, can't post here because I can't be bothered to blur out people names in game and if I don't do that -> post will be removed for naming and shaming :D (quite sure though that you will find a reason to remove it anyway) p.s. Note - I started spectating most games quite late because I was playing to rank up = some more hackers might have been eliminated or I was not able to spectate them when placing high say top3.New competitive mode is absolute s**t
I'd like to know what the actualf f* pushed developers to do that. It became even more brawl sh*t than it was before, at the first gunfight everyone around join hearing the shots and we are all full team of course because nobody died where we landed. I'm struggling to reach gold and I used to be master, all the games are same sh*t, incredibly slow and boring. Why removing the freedom of landing where you like? so f* nosense.
Turkish language support
I am a player who plays Apex Legends from Turkey, but it saddens me that there is no Turkish language support or a server in the game. I'm getting a lot of ms in the game and I can't understand some words. Do you have any plans to open Turkish language support or servers in the future? [Edit] Edited layout for better visibility
Fuse animation too slow...
I saw lots about this in the discussions around season 9 (4 - 5 years ago) where Fuse was enhanced and then there were a lot of complaints he was OP then the next season he was buffed way down. There are issues with his tactical... The animation is way too slow. IMO It should work like Ballistic's where he can fire the weapon and the tactical at the same time. When you see an enemy and try to fire it, an enemy can empty half a magazine in you before his animation triggers. Happens to me a lot. It works fine at a distance but not for CQB... The knuckle clusters bounce off enemies but not walls or rocks??? When they bounce off the enemy they go anywhere, even back to you. IMO They should bounce like a grenade or stick like an Arc Star. They probably should stick to the enemy like the Arc Star does. As it is they run through them as they do not do a lot of damage.
Thank You Respawn
I was about to buy a new 2500€ PC, but thanks to your stupidity to integrate Aim Assist for Controller players on Apex PC, I don't see the point to invest in PC gaming anymore... The Aim Assist has no place on PC, it must be removed completely, end of discussion. Those who play Apex on PC with a Controller do so exclusively for the Aim Assist, nothing else. Pro or not, if you are using a controller on PC, you are nothing but turds, sorry for the hard truth... Like they say : the best wait to aim with the Aim Asssit is to not aim at all... You want some stats ? (recent decrease from 40% to 30% changes nothing) : https://www.reddit.com/r/apexlegends/comments/1dmliud/i_performed_mnk_vs_controller_statistical/ https://www.reddit.com/r/CompetitiveApex/comments/10ywjdq/comment/j843jzy/ I have 30 years of experience on Mouse & Keyboard Shooters, and I refuse to throw all that away to give in to the easy way and grab a no skill Controller. Apex is not the only game that integrates aim assist, I know (CoD, Warzone, Fortnite, ...), but Apex was the last straw. So Thank You Respawn, it's time to stop PC gaming for good. If I have to play with a Controller, let's buy a Console, it'll be an aimbot fair for everyone... Rest Cronus, Strike Pack, Xim Matrix & Co. to deal with... Oh and I don't plan to play Apex on Console if you thought you wouldn't lose any players... Thanks again, it will save me money too.I say again about Ash's Blink
I will say this again and again: Ash's Blink should be removed, and she should be reverted to her pre-rework state. To preserve her blink ability, other characters are being adjusted to Ash's standard, resulting in an overall increase of overpowered (OP) elements in the game. This practice is causing widespread inflation across the entire game. The premise of "keeping blink" leads to temporary, stopgap adjustments, which then invite further OP elements, making the situation even more complex. Developers need to realize that their desire to "keep blink" is creating a vicious cycle that raises the difficulty of their own balancing efforts. While the recent update making Ash a Skirmisher has made it easier for other players to catch up to her, we're forced to conclude that this is nothing more than a temporary fix or a cover-up as long as "blink," the fundamental OP element, remains unaddressed. For Apex to continue to be loved by many, I hope the developers will confront the true nature of this problem. Failure is not a disgrace. Success requires Failures and progress. There can be no progress as long as you continue to look away from your failures.Has aim assist improved?
Even though he's a beginner who just charges straight into the enemy camp, his aim never misses the target. From the outside, he looks like a cheater. He's probably using a pad or something similar. I'd like to know if regular keyboard and mouse players would enjoy playing against players who use cheat tools like that. At least within my country's player community, there have been many complaints for a long time. Even when shooting at dummies in the practice range, I miss less than half of the targets. Of course, if I shoot at the correct distance (about 20m with an R-99/CAR), I can finally kill them with one magazine. At close range, the opponent is almost guaranteed to hit, and the TTK is less than one second. There's no way we'll ever be on equal footing. In ranked matches, you can fight at mid- to long-range distances, but in other modes, the opportunities are greatly reduced, making it unfair. They say the aim assist has been reduced to 0.3, but from my experience of being killed by such players, it doesn't feel like much of a difference. I'm still getting brutally killed, just like before. I almost certainly can't win in close combat, so I've significantly reduced my close combat engagements. What's with this FPS game? I understand that there's a pro league and they cater to the skill levels of professional players, but EA should also consider the perspective of average players. I previously fought a master player and lost, but the cursor was properly timed to match my left and right movements, so I didn't feel like I was being mercilessly killed by the system, and I still had fun even though I lost. There's no need to adjust the assist system. Just provide an option to play with pad users. That alone would eliminate the need to open the keyboard and mouse customization menu and have pad users interrupt you.Apex Servers are worse than ever... New hope though?
hi all, especially EA, Everyone can see that the Apex servers are even worse than before. I didn't know it was possible and the game is still "running"... Apex is so brutally degraded by now that it's borderline unplayable: full of lag spikes, magic shots from me (opponent standing still and waiting for me to execute), magic shots from others (I get hrarararara shot dead under 100ms, and log says it was 25 bullets from one guy), SWAMPED by cheaters on every level with zero recoil, lag switching and all the ugly imaginable - feels like PC cheaters can again join consoles with some trick... (Maybe MS secretly really did the merge of XBox with PC due to low number of XBox players?), endless list, really... Posted about this earlier here, I thought that was the bottom of the pit, but since then it's a million times worst... Now the question to EA! EA got bought from some Saudi pocket change amount of money ($55B, I guess it was a 10 years calculated RoR). Even though the company is headed by Jared Kushner, who is totally not Saudi sadly (those billionaires tend to be generous for they are not stealing their money from tax payers, but making it from selling oil), can we finally expect some investment in this game?! It would be THE BEST battleground game out there (as PUBG is by now also trash, suffering from the same backlashes this game does, plus TPS...) if it was fixed, settings (e.g. # of bullets to kill) were set back to the original and most importantly, servers weren't potatoes... If this doesn't happen very soon, and e.g. BF6 won't be the bloody mess (as usual lately), and a swamped cheater heaven (yeah, yeah, the magical Javelin - which will prove a joke for OBVIOUS reasons...), Apex is done I think. But I like it too much to just let it go... So... Can upgrade be expected or this game is done and will go down the sewers as soon as anything reasonable comes out (if ever) in the genre? Thanks for reading this silly rant :)Warning: "Respawn Wake Up Soon" (Controller & Mouse & Keyboard)
The game is infested with mouse and keyboard players with "AIM ASSIST," with insane aiming thanks to the combination (Mouse and keyboard + AIM ASSIST). And as a controller player, I'm suffering because you NERFEED AIM ASSIST and screwed us controller players, since we need AIM ASSIST to hit our shots. Getting straight to the point... Either you give "weak AIM ASSIST" to all mouse and keyboard players, and buff the controller's AIM ASSIST until you reach a total balance between the two. Or you buff the controller, and separate the controller players from the mouse and keyboard players (i.e., mouse and keyboard players VS. mouse and keyboard players) (controller VS. controller).Ranked
I’ve been playing this game since launch and I’d say I’ma decent player but I don’t feel like in plat lobbies I should be fighting people who have been in masters/preds when the highest I’ve made it is diamond 1. It seems like skill based match making is still in ranked when it should be the rank your in is what you fight. I’ve also still experienced way too high volumes of audio issues the octane bug still exists and zero footstep audio kills me more than skill issues lol. Other than that I still love this game and play it whenever I have free time.
