DONE PLAYING APEX LEGENDS

I’m officially quitting this game. It has put me in such a bad mood because it consistently pairs me with teammates that are either toxic or don’t know what to do in rank. I play with a pre made squad but I also like to play solo queue sometimes. Solo queueing is the worst thing that ea and respawn has ever created. 

1. I come in at a good placement and good kp. The next 20 games I play are games in the negative because I’m being paired with players that are lower level than me and go out on their own to do their own thing.

2. solo queueing does not pair you with players on your caliber at all. Respawn devs programmed this game in order to hold every regular player such as me to a 5% win rate. 

3. there are countless times when the server lags and everything turns into slow motion. The servers in apex is horrible.

4. I noticed that every season a legend and weapon becomes meta and is suddenly so much better than all the other legends. Then the next thing you know everyone is using that weapon or legend because of the fact that it’s meta. What if I don’t want to keep using that weapon because I’d like to switch different weapons and legends because the same thing over and over again eventually gets boring? Everyone is now using octane revenant and spitfires. Last season everyone was a horizon main. Season before that gibby was meta. Why can’t they just balance all the characters instead of making 1 or 2 legends and weapons meta and having everyone be forced to use them because everyone else is using that legend? 

my overall take on this game is that it is a MUST NOT play. if you’re looking for a cool FPS team based game definitely play something else like warzone. This game just kept getting worse and worse since season 2 and it’s going to continue that way.

  • @jonlouise96Glad to read you're moving on. I quit Apex Legends 3 weeks ago and it's made me a better person both for myself and in relation to others. The toxicity, frustration and generally rage inducing and depressing emoitions this game generates in me/people, I'm surprised the game is even legal to publish. I really don't need it in my life. Glorifying violence is never a good thing ever in the course of the history of the universe and Yes, Apex Legends is absolutely glorifying violence.
    Do better, make better choices and quit this game that is by design rage inducing. Good luck to anyone in your endeavour to quit playing Apex Legends and have amazing days onward!

  • @peraasd Imo the game ran great in season 7 when crossplay was first introduced, then sometime between midseason 7 and season 8 the game has been going downhill

    @Irres169 I'm all for skill-based matchmaking, but it would be great if AL leaned a bit heavier on player experience and a few behavioral metrics (such as drop rate, mic usage, solo proclivities) when building teams.

    Respawn can and should do more to match players of similar experience and playstyle.
  • I agree.  10 games in a row - rediculous teammates, laggy servers, smurfs everywhere. Just hit the uninstall button. I am free of this stupidity.  Time to stop wasting my time with this garbage.
