[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 ...
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.
