Slight buff to Revenant Reborn
I believe Revenant could be in a better spot, capable to be more deadly while not being majorly meta-defining. I originally assumed Revenant's place in the Assault class didn't make much sense, that he'd get better snowball capabilities as a Skirmisher with Charged Knock's (and his old ultimate which instantly refreshed his shadow shield). However, it makes more sense to see him as a scout entry-fragger assassin who plays off of weaknesses and makes calculated decisions; that being said, it could be improved upon if his stealth portion of his kit is focused more. I suggest that he gets new upgrades, here are some ideas to implement: Silent/muffled movement After Shadow Pounce Usage During Forged Shadows Faster crouch-walk Speed boost towards highlighted enemies Highlighted enemies have reduced healing speed Faster weapon ready on climb/mantle Shadow Pounce cooldown reduce when landing near enemy Forged Shadow's enhanced climb/crouch-speed Silent/muffled Shadow Pounce Usage Fully charged Shadow Pounce grants: No landing fatigue Faster weapon ready The idea is that these upgrades/buffs (if implemented into his kit) help with stealth, punishing isolated enemies, and calculated movement.Apex built a system that keeps players hooked but not valued
This isn't about difficulty anymore its about being ignored by a system that clearly sees player behavior and still chooses to push frustration instead of fairness I've put money into this and stuck around even when it stopped being fun not because its rewarding but because the loop is designed to keep me there and thats the problem I'm not even a hardcore gamer, apex is basically the only game I play and I'm not some top skill player either but the experience makes it clear players like me aren't actually valued just used to keep the ecosystem going if the goal is long term loyalty this ain't it cause all its doing is burning out the very people who were willing to stay
una nueva comunidad para apex en nuevo modo de juego
“Tengo otra idea que me motiva mucho y espero de corazón que la comunidad nunca abandone el juego. Me gustaría proponer un modo de juego similar al de Counter-Strike, tipo desactivar bomba. Podría empezar como una versión normal para ver si a la comunidad le gusta y le interesa. Si el modo tiene buena aceptación y la gente lo juega bastante, entonces podrían agregar una versión ranked. En lo personal, me motiva mucho subir de rango. Sé que no soy el mejor jugador, pero el hecho de ganar o perder puntos lo hace muy adictivo y da una sensación de recompensa. Entiendo que la esencia de Apex es el battle royale, pero este modo podría ser una buena opción adicional para la comunidad.”Matchmaking
Never understood why during matchmaking for a game I get one Instead of two players as and also during wildcard during respawn why is it they respawn me or a team mate on top of rocks or a canyon when my team is in a closed location? Respawn the legend in open area I stead of getting penalized smh the devs don't care
Apex can reclaim its throne by getting rid of aim assist. part2
I'm talking strictly about the PC sever; consoles are a completely different story. What actually happens if they get rid of aim assist. Pros First off, making this change would make Apex much more competitive compared to its rivals on PC. If we look at Steam's player counts for free-to-play Battle Royales, PUBG still maintains a massive player base. On the other hand, since the devs describe Apex as a competitive shooter, Valorant it its biggest rival-and Valorant's player count simply higher than Apex's right now. I believe that removing aim assist, Apex has a high potential to absorb players from these titles. Right now, FPS community is fragmented across many different games, and minor tweaks aren't going to bring the player base back in a big way. Since the majority of the current player base uses controllers, removing aim assist would mean many of them would perform at their actual skill level. This would naturally lower the entry barrier, making it much easier for true beginners to get into the game. Removing aim assist will increase the overall difficulty of the game, which will help distribute the rank population more naturally. This could solve the "Diamond elo smurfing" i mentioned before. Ultimately, this creates a much healthier environment for beginners. Lastly, it simply makes the game more competitive. This could breathe new life into the pro scene and make it even more exciting to watch. In fact, there's player named NIRU who actually hit solo Master rank on controller with aim assist turned OFF. It would also wipe out all those third-party devices that give aim assist to mice. This would finally put an end to that king of hardware-level chaeting. Cons Some might argue that controller players will quit the game. While that might be true for consoles, I don't think it applies to PC. PC gamers don't just stop gaming overnight; they usually look for a similar game to migrate to or smurfing, but the problem is-there isn't one. If the devs themselves use controllers, they won't be able to win anymore. Plus, they probably just don't want the hassle if massive update or the headache of dealing with the inevitable crying from the controller community. If you’re going to criticize this idea, please bring a counter-proposal that has more pros than mine. Let’s keep this a logical debate.
Please bring back tap strafing on controller
I wonder if.. because of the other buffs and stuff that brought up the rest of the game to be fun again. And if you have people in the community show how to setup stuff/just make the global configuration have the settings and add it into the games tutorial if tap strafing could still exist for controller?. And I bet the player count would go up a lot and continue to grow. If yall bring it back with transparency about it. And not one sided nonsense. The player count will skyrocket. Don't treat it like a bug. Treat it like a feature and actually implement it fully. Warframe did this well with bullet jumping. This game keeps cutting itself off right before it grows. Its been better the past few seasons and its finally at a place I felt comfortable to have this conversation. Another really big example and maybe just do this one first as a test! Add back punch boosting rebalanced? Limit how many boosts you can do like you all did the zip line change ages ago where you can only grab it 3 times. I just miss titanfall but like apex for the big maps.. Right before tap strafing got removed from controller I was learning how to wall run on revenant using it. Can still do it. But it's like I got my wings cut. Can't do anything like I used too unless my aim is 100% there.. and half the time when I bring it up I get told "switch to keyboard" I just don't like it for these kind of games. Never have. But I like the extra gameplay features keyboard gets to compensate bc it makes the game funner. Controller just got all that taken awhile ago.. I still play just not much.Apex sever lag
Hey apex devs, how about we get off our **bleep** and fix this **bleep** **bleep** game. I dont even got a problem with matchmaking. It's this thus lag every single day. And it is constant lag, from my whole screen lagging to my gun shooting people and they take no damage. Get off your lazy **bleep** **bleep** and get to work.
Gyro Aiming Apex for PS5
EA- is gyro controls being worked on as a ln addition to apex for ps5? It works well on the switch and I’d love to see it moved to our better consoles. It would also help bridge the gap for console and PC players making that problem better. I also intend to invest money into my account on PlayStation provided that gyro become possible that way I can have all my nice skins on a profile that includes better graphics and include the superior controls of gyro aiming. For now I pretty much have to stick to my switch if I want to play with a good experience.Hemlok's burst mode
The Hemlok's burst mode should be removed. I agree with the intention of wanting to change the weapon environment while saving memory capacity, but this adjustment was not good. The Controller class, which was already in a slump with a low pick rate due to being a poor match for Ranked mode, has had its deployables neutralized even more easily by this mode. Especially for Rampart, if the reinforced upper part of the barricade—which was the focus of recent buffs—can be destroyed instantly with a single shot from the Hemlok, then it is meaningless. The reason the Hemlok is too strong is not its recoil or normal firing DPS, but the burst mode. I do not think the issue will be resolved by trying to adjust other parts while leaving the root cause untouched. Also, Mad Maggie's pick rate has been high recently as a counter-pick to Gibraltar, but if Rampart—who can collect drills with the barricade and repel Maggie's ultimate—had been adjusted properly, I think a three-way deadlock relationship between Rampart, Maggie, and Gibraltar could have been established.Actions when picking the same Legend
When selecting a character in ranked matches, I went to the bathroom and when I came back, the Legend I wanted to use was already taken, and a different Legend had been automatically selected. I think it probably picks the Legend I've used the most in the past, but it would be great if there was a "priority Legend" function in the settings. For example, if there's a tie, Legend A should be prioritized. Next, Legend B should be prioritized, and if that's also taken, Legend C should be prioritized. If that were the case, it would be the perfect game.
Return of the Stealth Hunter | Bloodhound Unique Ability Rework Idea
I am also a game developer working for Mihoyo. I have a suggestion to help Bloodhound, the legend with the lowest pick rate, become viable again with a unique playstyle that is completely different from other legends. Bloodhound now has no advantage in direct combat against enemies. He can only attack from behind like a spotted hyena. We can upgrade Bloodhound's ultimate ability. When the ultimate is activated, Bloodhound lets out a scream to warn nearby enemies. For the next 30 seconds, movement speed is increased with no footstep sounds or breathing sounds. At the same time, all other recon legends cannot detect Bloodhound with their scout skills, similar to electronic interference. This allows Bloodhound to sneak and complete the hunt. A real mature hunter should remain undetected before attacking. For the Q skill rework, after scanning enemies, remove the directional ripple effect. Only give enemies a high-light warning such as "You are being hunted". Enemies will not be able to tell which direction the scan came from, giving Bloodhound strong pressure and great advantages in certain situations. This rework also has obvious weaknesses. Bloodhound will be at a big disadvantage in open areas with few obstacles and buildings.Octane's Identity Crisis: Why 40% Speed Isn't Enough Anymore (Rework Proposal)
Dear Respawn Balance Team, With the recent changes to Gibraltar’s mobility (Momentum Boost), Octane’s role as the definitive 'Speed Legend' feels compromised. Octane should be the fastest character in the game, but currently, he lacks the 'oomph' to justify his health sacrifice. I propose a 'High-Risk, High-Reward' rework for Octane’s Stim: The Idea: Massive Speed Boost (60% to 80%) tied to a higher health cost (25-30 HP). The Mechanic: This extreme speed should be tied to a 'Double Stim' or a specific window (e.g., 6 seconds of 'Overdrive' every 20-30 seconds). The Balance: To keep it fair and address 'OP' concerns, Octane should not be immune to slows (bullets/abilities) during this burst. If he gets hit, he loses the momentum immediately. This change would restore Octane’s identity. While legends like Gibraltar get 'safe' passive speed, Octane would be the high-skill 'Intercontinental Ballistic Missile'—lightning fast, but extremely fragile. Let Octane be the daredevil again. Risk it all for the ultimate speed. Best regards, Slonix_HD
Missing Apex Coins after redeeming Xbox code
**“Hello, I am playing Apex Legends on PC, but I redeemed an Apex Coins code on Xbox. At the time I redeemed the code, my Xbox account was not linked to my EA account yet. Now I have already linked my accounts, but I still cannot see the Apex Coins in my account. I have already tried logging into the game again and waiting, but the coins still do not appear. I can confirm that the code was successfully redeemed on my end. Here are my details: Order number: 5324342578 Date: April 11, 2026 In-game name: zooaunzoo1 Could you please help me check if the coins are tied to my Xbox account and transfer or restore them to my EA account? Thank you.”**Controller settings & Attracting players
This is about limitations of controller settings(at least on Xbox). There are some actions that use the same button. Too often at times while playing Wattson there are instances where I want to res a teammate or open a door after I've put down some fences to discourage opponents pushing me and I press the X button to res but instead wattson disables the fence I just put down. The down button on the D-pad is already employed for this character action and I haven't found a way to remove the X button from this function. Next, I think Apex needs to be better at attracting new players, though that was obvious from what I could tell. I believe having so many locked characters is counter-productive to this goal. It would take about 2 months or more of casual play to be able to unlock all of them with LTs. I believe it's better if new players had more options to start with as well as an easier and shorter time to unlock all characters. Also, please bring back Arenas, if there's too much worry about splitting the player base then make it pubs only, since most people would want to play BR ranked either way.Discussion on Game Mechanics and Game Operation
PS：My English proficiency is limited. The following text is translated by AI. Please forgive me for any awkward phrasing or errors. All the following suggestions regarding weapons, legends and game mechanics are highly subjective personal opinions. I am not a professional game planner or designer, and my views do not take all factors into comprehensive consideration. Please forgive me if some content is unreasonable or unpleasant to read. Friendly communication and rational discussion from all players are also welcome. Regarding the current positioning of various weapons in the game: Light Machine GunsCurrently, light machine guns are in an awkward position, especially the L-STAR. They feel cumbersome to handle, inferior to assault rifles at mid-range, and worse than SMGs in close-quarters combat.There was once an excellent adjustment that the longer an LMG fired continuously, the smaller its hip-fire spread would be. I really appreciated this change and cannot understand why it was removed.I would like to ask the development team if there are any optimization plans for the positioning and future adjustments of light machine guns. Ammo SystemEach type of ammo now has distinct characteristics: energy ammo has no bullet drop; shotgun shells feature multiple pellets and can break windows quickly; sniper rounds have penetration effects; light rounds offer a higher carry capacity; heavy rounds suffer from severe bullet drop.These are all my personal observations. In addition, since the Wingman now uses sniper ammo, why has it not been granted the penetration effect? Is this due to balance concerns or simply a design oversight?I hope the developers will test and add new ammo mechanics in the future, so that weapons within the same category, such as assault rifles, can have distinct gameplay differences and unique trade-offs when using light rounds, heavy rounds and other types of ammo.For example: energy weapons deal no damage to Wattson’s ultimate and could even recharge it; heavy rounds could deal bonus damage to player-made structures, such as Rampart’s tactical abilities and Caustic’s traps. Apart from firearms, I also have some feedback on legends and game mechanics.I believe the recent change to Caustic — where enemy Caustics can receive ability damage from opposing Caustics — is a poor adjustment.Apex Legends is fundamentally a shooter, and the outcome of player confrontations should mainly depend on gun skill.However, this change has altered the core gameplay, turning matches into contests of ability spamming and ability frequency.I would like to ask if the development team plans to restore the old mechanic, allowing Caustic to become immune to enemy Caustic abilities once again. Furthermore, will this type of immunity be expanded to all Control legends, making them unaffected by slow effects from other same-class Control legends? In terms of legend class division, I feel the classification of some legends is rather vague. I suggest adding clear counter relationships between each class: Assault: Focus on frontline suppression and environmental destruction, strong against Control legends. Support: Provide powerful healing and utility to make up for shortcomings in gunfights, strong against Assault legends. Control: Excel at area denial and crowd control, strong against Support legends. Skirmisher: Possess high mobility and slow cleansing abilities, strong against Control legends. Recon: I have not yet come up with a clear positioning for this class. I am very dissatisfied with the global enemy health bar visibility mechanic. I suggest either removing it completely or turning it into an exclusive Recon class passive, so only Recon legends can see enemy health bars.Moreover, I hope mobility-related abilities can be fully customised with keybinds. For instance, keep the double jump on Octane’s jump pad bound to Space, and allow players to set a separate custom key for Valkyrie’s jetpack. When it comes to game operation, the recent Gundam collaboration was fantastic. Data shows that daily active players have increased by nearly one hundred thousand. I hope to see more crossover collaborations, similar to the frequent crossovers in Fortnite. I also look forward to large-scale in-game events, such as a crossover event between Gundam and Godzilla.The previous Tales from the Outlands stories were incredibly compelling, and I am confused about why they were discontinued. Was it due to cost issues or other reasons?Will cooperative PVE content be released in the future? I am very much looking forward to it. Overall, I truly love Apex Legends. I hope the game can keep running steadily for another ten or twenty years, until I can no longer play.With the recent player rebound from the Gundam collaboration, this game has "revived" twice from hardship, if I recall correctly. I do not want the game to rely on repeated revivals; I only wish for long-term stable operation, even if it is an unrealistic expectation.I hope the development team can focus on proper, down-to-earth operation instead of risky or improper decisions.This is a game that has deeply captivated me. I even hope that one day, my children will also get to experience and enjoy Apex Legends.
