Re: I want to know why people leave this game.

I don`t see why anyone could cry about a MTX and they being costly. They are not needed, if you don`t like it or don`t want to give the money, don`t do it. No one makes you.

The game is *snip* free, so for what exactly you are crying? And this is not and RPG, aka POE, Diablo, this is FPS battle royale game ...
And you can actually get almost everything by just playing the game, and you do not need to spend anything on the game.

I couldn`t care less giving a money for skin, etc, i will do it to support this great game actually.

As far as new content, what exactly expect from a totally free game actually ? And this is FPS after all. We get new things every new season, so i still don`t get the crying for that, but people going to complain no matter what.

I never ever have problem with bugs in this game, maybe very few times get killed by door or such *snip*.

The main problem is the server, the lag/delay and if they fix this and its running like CS:GO for example it will be perfect.

The other main problem is the *snip* cheaters, Respawn actually needs to do something on that.

As far as leaving the game, people actually quit mostly because they are not that good at the game, and they want to become good in like a month or so, and this game is just too complicated and the skill cell is too high.

You not only need mechanical skills, but to actually use your brain, and your decision making are big part of the game.

To me Apex is still N1 BR game on the market, the movement is untouchable and i hope the game stay alive for long way to come.

I think this question can be broken down a bit more simple.

Reasons People are leaving Apex

Slow Development

- Updates only seem to happen at new Seasons

- Each season takes 90 days? I don't want this to be FortNite, but Fortnite has massive updates every month or two. So its a fair comparison.

- Very few new skins

- We have never gotten a new execution added to the game

- Little to no lore/story (Although this last season started to add a little)

- There's barely been any changes to game modes, or rotation of unique game modes

Boring Development

- The battle passes have been extremely boring, containing mostly legend banners/trackers

- Example: One of the seasons just moved around the giant monsters in King's Canyon, although never doing anything interesting with them

- Took away fan favorite Skull town, instead of creating reasons to go elsewhere

- When Apex did a bunch of new skins, that one time, it was unreasonably expensive, and almost impossible to obtain otherwise.

- If they developed Lots of new things, with a reasonable price tag, EA/Respawn would make more money, and keep the game feeling fresh.

Toxic Culture

- There's little to no incentive to be a good team player

- Random players tend to fly off on their own, get angry, and leave the match when they fail to solo an entire squad

- There's no system to reward teamwork

- Toxic culture makes Ranked matches miserable

Matchmaking

- I believe a lot of the complaints with matchmaking (on PC) come from fairness issues (See next point) The rest come from toxic culture.

- Aim Assist on PC is extremely over powered. It makes bad controller players aim like above average keyboard/mouse users. This makes matchmaking feel unfair, and inconsistent. 

- There's very little incentive to try to rank up, no impressive rewards, skins, etc.

Hackers/Aim Assist

- The amount of cheaters seems to be lower than season 1-3, but they are still there.

- Aim Assist on PC is extremely over powered. It creates a feeling of getting killed by aimbots quite frequently which is extremely off-putting for average keyboard/mouse users. (Yes I put this twice.)

I want to finish by saying I personally see a ton of things Apex did right this season. Gun balance, most of the map changes, map rotation, Mirage improvements, etc.

But the issues above are just massive glaring issues.

Apex has the core of an incredible game, and does a lot of stuff extremely well. But people expect more development from a game like this.

If EA/Respawn hired on 3-4 times the development crew, and kicked things into high gear, Apex could be thriving for a long while to come.

@4ccbf460f7b926b1Aim assist is op on pc with weapons like the R-99 but it dosnt instantly make you a apex predator by simply picking up a controller its not like it aims for you, ive actually never gotten over 2k damage before ive been really close though... 1963 :/ I was really close lol im still kinda pissed I would of made it but I ran into a team camping on a shelf in bunker my point is it dosnt just automatically give you the aim of a higher tier mouse and key player who can get 2-4k damage badges all the time controllers still require skill to master
