Congratulations Respawn, you ruined Apex.

@WraithMain712The reason why World's Edge became a good map was because they made a lot of huge changes to fix all the things people complained about. Those complaints being: too many chokepoints, too many open spaces with no cover/loot, and sniper/shotgun gameplay. They fixed all of that in season 4. Removed a lot of the multi storey buildings. Broke the map with a lot more cover and loot. Made more passtroughs and changed the ring spawns.
For me they made all the same mistakes again with Olympus. Personally, I don't like this kind of gameplay at all. It takes away most of the action gameplay and flow of tthe game, that i grew to love Apex for.

Exactly my son has started to play on his PS4 and it made me quit. It is just crazy how aim assist works. They should call it what it really is Aimbot!

Well, the "tin foil hat theory" that's going around is that they did it intentionally. Leave the map bare bones (in terms of it being too open and having the other issues you stated), so they can make big deal about improving it later with map changes, during Events and/or new season launches.

So, basically, the theory is that they didn't mess up with Olympus, like they did with WE, but that this is strategically planned so they can make a huge deal about map changes and be all like "look, we listened to player feedback" and all that, to get some brownie points.

I mean, considering I've seen game developers do worse, it wouldn't surprise me if the theory was true. Especially, considering the rest of the BS this season *shrug*

@IonHyper_TVwhat's with that cartoonish map? What's with the brightness? Apex was my life, something I used to play during night times. How am I supposed to play it with colors brighter than league of legends?
Why add vehicles? It was literally possible to cross entire map on foot quickly.
Ranked games seem to be ruined as well - placed with either 3 tiers higher players or 3 tiers lower.
I was excited for the patch, but you have truly ruined the game.

I have created an account just to tell you how much you've screwed up...

All I know is forcing crossplay on ranked is not a balanced system for pc players or console. Ranked should be upon the platform your on and not against anything else. This is about balance this is about fair gameplay. You can not have that with the system you have set up in place forcing us into lobbies together. 

While I understand they may have had to force it to better debug things. I don't mind it crossplay but do not force this upon ranked when its suppose to be fair. 

Because Respawn's developers clearly don't know anything about actual Battle Royale development, yes Respawn, we are calling you out.

What do you need to do to fix your broken game, before you loser your entire PC competitive player base?

• Nerf the aim assist entirely, on both consoles. Whether you leave it as is, in console vs console lobbies, and nerf it just in cross play, or all together is up to you>

• Lower the brightness to a more eye-appealing level.

• Remove Tridents. If players don't have the intelligence to know when to rotate, they shouldn't be playing BRs.

• Add more cover, remove all the camp spots where all the console circle campers sit every single game for 20 minutes.

• Re-add the option to select if our lobbies are PC-specific, or crossplayer, and vice-versa.

• Patch Ranked mode. Stop putting players of 3-4 tiers in with other players. As well as the amount of smurfing kids do, just to boost their friends.

• Fix the weapon rotation. Stop making every gun a regular now. This is a BR, not a farm-simulator.

• It's obvious your anti-cheat is still about as useful as a broken umbrella in a a monsoon. Spend the money we all know you have, get one that actually works so you can get rid of all the cheat users. (If you don't think Apex is still full of them, you're delusional.)
