Apex Legends after 3000 Hours

Right off the bat after playing apex for over 3000 hours I can EASILY say that this game is one of the buggiest and least cared for games I have ever played. And its getting worse every season making...

Swapping weapons

Okay that's a fair reason, honestly they should just allow us to customize the amount of time we'd have to press it to pick up.

General bugs

The only 2 bugs that go back to the start which you've mentioned is the knockdown shield issue and audio issues.

I've barely heard of users encountering old bugs, even if they are, it's happening to such a small amount of users that it's barely getting any traction.

Bug reports are important because the team will not look at every video and scan for any issues.

Social media isn't so easy for them to find issues, they really have to go viral for them to take notice of such issues.

As for the more recent issues, there have been numerous statements indicating that they are working on it, especially those viral things like the freezing and heirloom issues.

It seems like you've got a problem with these issues, which is understandable, I just find it a bit confusing that you haven't made a bug report yourself as that would help quite a bit resolving these types of issues.

Audio

I've seen so many reports of poor audio in other games from many users, usually it was related to them in some shape or form.

Not saying it's the case here, though do note that there are others that can encounter these types of issues in other games.

After all, I've never had any audio issues with Apex, so does that mean it's actually so widespread?

Have you tried troubleshooting certain audio issues already?

Gameplay

Yeah, giving the options to split off from crossplay might be good, though it's still not something that can 100% be avoided.

Users on PC can just plug in a controller mid-game and use that, which kind of defeats the purpose.

Companies typically don't share their security systems, so if Fortnite and CoD have found a way to block these types of devices then that won't instantly mean that everyone on the market is aware of how to do this.

And cheaters do get banned, a lot... though there are just too many damn cheaters or the same cheaters that just get past their ban to play again.

It's a constant war, typically we don't really see a drop in cheaters unless an extremely big breakthrough for the AC.

(Byfron/Hyperion getting removed doesn't really help either)

General Bugs:

I agree, however, the problem is that when they say "we are working on it" and nothing about it happens. A prime example is Titanfall 2 DDOS attacks. I understand its an older game but they kept reassuring the community that they would fix it, and still have yet to do anything to this day. This lowers my trust is respawn as a whole.

Gameplay:

The only thing I want to say is that games like Fortnite have systems where when you enter a game on one input device it CAN NOT be changed mid-game (i.e. Your controller you just plugged in will do nothing, or vise versa). Which is also a great system to implement in addition to input-device match making. And I guess its fair that Fortnite cant share their security software, but that means there's a way and more than likely its some other devs that have developed this security tool so it doesn't need to be created from scratch. As the end user this is what makes me feel like respawn doesn't care about improving the quality and experience for their players because this security software is only beneficial and will be a huge improvement.
