Heirloom 3rd Person

Heirlooms are the rarest and most expensive items in this game; people buy them because they want to look cool. This is all great, but what does the heirloom really look like to other players? I think something should be done about the way heirlooms look to other players when the heirloom holder is idle (standing or crouching.) The first thing I'd mention is the awkward way that Legends hold the heirlooms. Why do they hold them with two hands, like a gun, awkwardly pointing them outward? I think it should be in one hand, and appear somewhat like it does in the 1st person. Next, and I know this might be tough, but it would be really, really cool if others could see your inspect emotes. Like, why can't my buddies in my squad see me doing all these cool tricks with my butterfly knife? Come on, amigo!! I want attention!! I think letting heirloom users flex is the least one can do for people spending hundreds on the game, but what you get is what you get, I guess. Appreciate the hard work done to make Apex great, keep up the good work! (Also it would be cool if Octane could stim with his heirloom, but beggars can't be choosers 😉)

    My opinion, I don't wish for 3rd person anything for Apex. Not all, but some would use it to look around objects.

  • @Popa2caps They could add it again but with a different playlist. Instead of playing with First person players, you would play with other third person players. So it can be fair for everyone
  • I don't mean I want 3rd person in the game. I meant from an outsider's perspective the heirlooms look dumb. My teammates want to see my heirloom, and they can't see anything but Octane awkwardly holding his knife with two hands, no animations or anything. Did you guys even read my post? Jeez...

    O my bad, yah then they should update those textures than. My bad, just read your post the wrong way, Sorry about that.

  • It's no problem I was just confused, maybe I worded it weird 😅

    No, it wasn't worded weirdly at all! I completely agree with all of this. Huge sore spot for me at the moment after just getting my first heirloom and messing around in 3rd person. I would additionally say that the way loadouts are just amalgamated on your back is just as off-putting. Extremely disappointing for something as you say is quite the investment.
