[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 ...
Agreeable that match-making isn't so good and actual as I am silver ranking but I played with a gold rank higher player OmO 🙂 cries
when a lot of people swear and scolding other players most like some cyber bullying thing here
Couldn't find compose so I did it as a reply.
Ignore the quote.
In regards to crossplay I noticed that it says all PC players will play with pc players, but can bring console players into the lobby.
For obvious reasons that means this form of crossplay is only for console to console.
Apex is not known for aim-assist, so unlike Call Of Duty Modern Warfare, where the controller Aim Assist is so powerful if you use a xbox controller you have major advantage over a pc player, aside from frame rate and fov. So now in COD console players just rush around with a Springefield and ADS to 1-hit.
Now I feel Apex due to no aim assist, should allow THIS for its cross play (Read Below for THIS)
If I plug in a controller, the game should have an option to completely disable keyboard and mouse (And can only be changed in lobby, not in games) So that pc players can play in console lobbies, other than discriminating against people who play rpgs, racing games and have a controller over just purely FPS on pc. (for example FF14 is 10 times easier to play with a controller vs keyboard mouse)
Although, I can't see why 1 console that has different specs from another console,
Should at all be considered different than a PC with a controller. and if you had to go one step further because theirs always that push back, you could even make it where FOV and graphic quality and FPS lock to console specifics, because queue for PC lobbys are slow and empty.
Lame, I mention how you can advance cross play, and make it so PC players who prefer to play with controllers who cant compete against mouse and keyboard, who ARE MORE LIKELY TO PLAY UR COMPETITION.
Which based on queue times has happened, oh i see I mentioned the competitions name.
Well let me repost my suggestion. and I'll use COMPETITOR instead of other video games names.
A PC Player should be allowed to play in console lobbies, it should not be locked to PC. This Cross Play is definately for PS4 to XBOX, not console to PC.
Which is weird as your QUEUE issue is on PC, not on console, and the price of a console is half a PC, so its far easier to have both consoles making cross-play in this adaption, a giant redundancy.
I see you say "Our most requested feature" but only actually finally work on implementing it, (BETA as of 10/6/2020) when you realize your competition is now ahead of you due to that one feature.
I get it, Aim-Assist doesn't exist in Apex Legends, therefor unlike your competition you are not able to analyze how you should implement this. SO FAR you did a good job, EXCEPT. You discriminated against PC players who play FPS with controller. Why is it the game doesn't detect my input but rather my os? You thought that was smart? This is why your competition is doing much better. If I choose a controller in a different particular game, thats far more popular than Apex, it locked me from switching or using my keyboard and mouse, until I'm in the game lobby and can change it back in Game Options. Cannot be done in game while loading a game or queueing for a game. Allowing me to play in Console Lobbies as a XBOX PLAYER, as PC is XBOX u r-* (don't believe me open Microsoft Store on Win10, type Xbox) Take a note from your superiors, implement it like this. PS4 and Xbox have different FOV, different Graphics, yet you act like they are the same, then act like you can't lock FOV on PC if you choose to play with a controller in console lobbies. You realize how lazy that is? After how many years you had time to modify your modules to include this feature?
If I use a controller I am now just as handicapped as a console player.
Except for FOV and FPS, which in that case you can create a option to lock everything to console specifics seeing how you think any tournament would ever be cross play (seriously Apex is the hugest casual played game ever and your treating it like every game out of ranked should be treated like a MLG game battle locking in specific consoles like your competitors.)
So honestly, if you don't re-vamp this, I'm sure the reason I came back on pc this month, and many other people, are going to simply walk away. The queue time is way to long on PC. Sure you will succeed on Console, but for how long? Your competition made it very clear they are going after you in the Free To Play battle royal market, and honestly have done it better, more players, more customization more skins, more avatars, more everything, I don't see you holding up if you can't make game changing moves to expand the lifespan of Apex Legends.
P.S. no one was impressed that you reduced the maps sizes rather than increase player count in games.
to create an illusion of a more populated map.
Nice, deleted both post, glad I screenshotted, now lets start up that youtube video, see if I can get some momentum to this cause.
Add option to PC - console mode.
Locks FOV to whatever its locked to on Xbox.
Only allows input from a Xbox controller, (PC Is xbox, microsoft store - > Xbox)
There your cross-play is done and better. Respawn Ent = Amatuers.
Yes your netcode sucks right now, it always has thats why you can only support 60 player games, and reduced map sizes to create an illusion of more population and higher octane games.
So i understand adding something as simple as this, will take you months after all, launch day for cross play is nothing but server kicks and D/C's under leaf.
Luckily your cross-play is in beta.
Make it better, stop sucking. I get it EA is your overlord, you have to let them pull your hair from behind as much as they want.
This isn't hard to implement do it right before EA really does die on PC.
I will not buy a Xbox, when PC is Xbox, I find it hilarious you are working to releasing on steam, yet here you are DISCRIMINATING AGAINST PC PLAYERS LMFAO
oh and dont think "PC players are cheaters" when console players have modded controllers with built in botting and scuff controllers for no recoil or sway.
My main problem is that since the cross-platform interface, I have seen more than 10 new servers to ping to... but they all are duplicates of an area. Example is Iowa GCE1, GCE2, GCE3 and GCE4 and they have the same ping and packet loss. They are "closer to home" but they disconnect more frequently than if I ping to Salt Lake City at a higher ping rate that's not a 'GCE' server.
These seem to be PC additions to the potential servers/data centers to work through, but they are honestly garbage in my opinion. Prior to the cross platform, no disconnects (unless I am AFK) and since then, almost 3 times a day... why?
What's up with the engine on season 6? The world spins differently when you turn or aim. It feels more like the Unreal engine now. There used to be a wider area you could focus on without wanting to vomit, now that target is small. Whatever the change is, I prefer the "classic" respawn feel.
