Re: Apex Season 3 is a disaster
Speaking as a PS4 player, thus a lesser average aim accuracy % then on PC. (200+ wins)
I agree somewhat about how Apex was more about rewarding tactics and skill more in season 1. Imho the R99 was only beast when you found the purple extended, so you could kill a purple shield with 1 magazine. This however still took the skill to aim the majority of the bullets on the victim. Also it was often needed to change to your secundary weapon to finish them off. Because that action was faster then reloading your primary, this was another thing that made the difference between a medium and good player.
In season 2 the skill rewards was already much less because of all the weapon buffs, what lead to a much high number of weapons who could kill with 1 magazine (or even half a one) and often without really needing to aim, like the spitfire and devotion just could keep on shooting. Meaning that changing to your secundary weapon was often not required anymore in 1v1 battles.
But i still enjoyed season 2 despite the faster time to die.
Season 3 however.... is just lacking of fair fights and action in general. You just run around hoping to find something that is actually useful and after 10minutes of playing running simulator in open spaces with nothing to do, you very often die too fast. Because you still only have a white shield.
Distances too big, loot sucks, not enjoying it at all.
