Re: Gun Run has ruined Control for me.

@Kyldenar Seriously?! I tried to equip it, but it was shaded out, so I stuck it in the vault. I'll definitely be looking back into that!! It's probably my favorite weapon for PvE, Lmao. I know it's cheap-ish, but good lord is it fun!! Can't remember if I got the Gnawing Hunger or not. I haven't been active on there in a good year or so. I always loved using the Hard Light.. love that thing

    @dSKyNafinchin Yeah that's kinda weird. I haven't played in some weeks now, but my WH was working fine.

    As for control - I have to agree to some degree with the opening thesis here. I'm pretty much done with my season, but was happily queuing for gun run any at the end of the week. With no progression I'm trying to earn, I've only popped on for one session to play Control so far. I do still like it, but I wonder if perhaps it's simply because it is a game mode with plenty of gunfights and a respawn mechanic.

    Despite its flaws, I guess I found Gun Run to be a much more playable mode for me than Control.

    @dSKyNafinchin Did you have another Exotic Weapon equipped in the Energy or Heavy Slot? You can only have one Exotic Weapon and one Exotic Armor equipped at once.

    Otherwise I would always have Witherhoard, Hard Light, and Thunderloard equipped for guns, and Knucklehead Radar, Liar's Handshake, Sixth Coyote, and Stomp33s for armor.

    @Kyldenar I completely forgot about that. I think I have an exotic helmet equipped. I'll check that next time I get on, so I can pull my baby back out of the vault. I promise I have a brain!

    @pandareno1999 That's one reason I really hope we eventually have a permanent, rotating LTM playlist. I enjoy several of them, especially Gun Run and Control, but I hate feeling like I have to grind nothing but that mode for an entire week, since I have no idea when it will return. I just want to be able to leisurely stroll into them when I want a break from BR, but still want to play Apex. I love the infinite ammo, shield regen and no looting, from time to time

    I still like Control better because it is strategic, gives you some weapon selection, and lasts longer. 

    But I still like GR too.

    @KelRiever I figured out how to make control fun. Do what everyone else does and don't play the objective! 🤣

    You can have:

    • One EXOTIC Weapon (in any one of the 3 slots)
    • +
    • One EXOTIC Armor (in any one of the top 4, they have not made as of yet Exotic class items)

    The helmet should not be stopping you. I expect the issue is that you have an Exotic weapon in either your energy or heavy slot.
