[Megathread] Season 6 Feedback
Hello everyone, i want to share my opinion after playing some games in Season 6. First of all i want to start with legends buffs/nerfs: Legends: I saw a topic in legend feedback section, there were ...
Forum Discussion
Just look at this video, everyone experience this many, many times through all different situation.
This is just a one example. But with a lower TTK and high DMG weapons, the whole experience is plain bad, and the frustrating is big.
So in games like CS:GO and Valorant with small maps and fixed objects positioning plays huge role, but you pretty much know what and from where to expect it, because the map is small and the objects are fixed.
Now in a BR game its totally different, because its a open-world map, and you can be hit literally from everywhere, every side and no one can cover all the direction. Not to mention most of the times your not going to see your opponent when he is getting the first shot at you. Lowering the TTK, makes you way easier to killed, and makes this first shots count for so much more, which is a good thing in a game like CS:GO and Valorant, but very bad thing in BR games.
Before most of the time you were running in the open, and you get shot by enemy team you don`t see, you could have just escape and slide to a cover, if your movement and reaction was good, now in a lot of situations this is just no possible.
Its literally forcing you to a fixed position to stay and camp.
Not to mention how fast teams are melted and your going to be passive in big % of the time, which is bad.
I got a drop with 2 teams, when i finish them, there were like 8-9squads left, the time i move and met the next team, it was 5 squads left .... Good luck improving that way, spending most of the time in game, but with very little fighting.
Hot dropping will get you kill most of the times, and more and more time spend outside of the fighting(which should be the main focus), because of the choosing legend, loading times, dropping, looting, finding a team and so on.
Again if someone missed, check this as well:
Game was totally ruined. RIP.
I agree 100%. I've played Apex since day one. I dabbled in Warzone when it dropped and while it wasnt horrible the biggest thing I favored in apex over it was movement and overall feel of the fights specifically in Warzone, winner of a fire fight in any non ridiculous range is almost always who gets the first shot off. Also lots of camping in dark corners and blasting someone before they can even react in warzone. It obviously happened in apex some but the combo \ of lowering armor and buffing full autos/adding the volt caters to that style of play while it was pretty few and far between before now it's already running rampant. The thing is even Warzone is designed to give you an automatic second chance in the gulug or be respawned by teammates with no need to retrieve a banner within a timeout time frame. I feel like unintended affects include making crypto's drone OP due to taking such a huge percentage of a team's armor in one EMP and indirectly buffing characters like Wraith since her hitbox advantage is due to avoiding hits entirely.
It's a shame because I felt Respawn was really hitting it's stride with the amazing character balancing they've done and the fact they wanted to shift back to a meta imo worse than S2's Disruptor Rounds baffles me especially since it's apparently a deliberate choice. I feel like all the weapons changes and additions would have been fine if the armor wasn't changed. I really hope they reconsider because I'm not enjoying the result of this gameplay shift.
I won't be spending another dime on Apex past this season pass I've already bought if this is the new norm going forward and will probably quit playing completely well before this season is over if these changes arent adjusted. Apex had a nice niche with it's gameplay and balance. I feel like it's all been thrown out the window with this one seemingly simple change. I gave it a chance and it's already unbearable after just a day and I've generally always felt like Apex was at the very least headed in the right direction on most updates/changes/buffs/nerfs. I didn't want CoD jr with Apex and I've felt like Apex has been the better BR on the scene since it's release and stood out on it's now. The hype for S6 has totally evaporated and my favorite gamee rendered nearly unenjoyable to me overnight. Just my opinion but from what I've seen it's a commonly shared on across social media. What a damper on an otherwise great game.
Yah this about sums it up. People try to argue for it but taking away base health isn't a freaking meta change. that's a complete game rework lol. it is super annoying because i felt like season 5 was so lit and interesting and I started to stream it because i had so much fun playing apex. But now.... if one of my teammates is jumpmaster I just hate the game the entire time. we land in a horrible spot and run around the entire game just to get sniped at by all sides by the end of the game. that is just awful. the mechanics are all messed up. the map is still boring and forced on us for a full week. The new updates are all stupid and go against all the changes the devs have made for the entire history of apex. giving us a forced game rework was terrible. and i feel like i wouldn't be so mad about it if i just had my normal health but no, they couldn't even refrain from messing that up.
