Just Shoot game mode

It would be amazing if you can add a game mode where we just shoot at each other, die, spawn again and shoot. In a rather small map. We can get points maybe for each kill. This would be amazing for practicing shooting in the game.

    "A custom game where one can play solo. To discover the maps."

    I spent the first two years of the game wishing for exactly this. My guess is that they want you to discover the maps only through live gameplay because it's good for their metrics. I'm honestly surprised they were willing to introduce Bot Royale, and even more surprised that they haven't scrubbed it yet.

    "But a game mode just for shooting, solo like in an arena."

    I'm also surprised they haven't introduced a rumble-style game mode. They could easily do it on the firing range. Say, four to eight players, no timer, just a "first player to 30 kills wins" mechanic. Like you, I suspect a lot of people would love it. At any rate, they've given us solo battle royale twice now (though they were both flawed in different ways) so maybe at some point that will return.

    Yes, Deathmatch and Gun Run are already good options. But a game mode just for shooting, solo like in an arena. Also, too bad we don't have this: A custom game where one can play solo. To discover the maps. Knowing the maps is half the game. In Overwatch that's what I did, I used to study the map, explore where each stairs takes you, each door...etc... Please Apex! Implement this feature!

  • Arenas. Deathmatch. Duels. Wildcard. All fit your description to lesser or greater degrees. I'm not saying any of them are perfect, but it you're looking for something faster and more forgiving than ranked trios then this game has it already.
