Re: Remove Armor Swapping

Have to respectfully disagree. Ttk is already too long in this game with the heals revives and respawns

    @LuckyCanuckLuke You think it's too long? So you'd prefer a player to die in 1 second and have no time to react? Movement would be as useless as it was at the start of season 5, every legend would be pointless. Hitboxes/fortified would run the game. Every healing/shielding item in the game would have to be completely reworked, Not to mention the fact that lag compensation would absolutely destroy you once you've downed them first. You really think it's too long!? Imagine this, me being wraith on high ground and you on low ground, you beam me for 150, I have a golden shield, with the reduced ttk i'm already fully healed and dropping you within 3s where you have 0 cover. TTK is Perfect at this moment in time, when they made the shield changes it didn't even feel like apex, it felt like a cheap knockoff, all noobs who had 0 skill and would never win a fight were getting lucky as hell because they finally got some kills from camping in corners and waiting 5mins straight for third parties to finish so they could go in and one shot. If I wanted to play a game where players would sit in corners and not push, i'd play any call of duty game currently released, this is a preposterous idea, horrible explanations, and an overall awful outcome for apex in general.

    FYI, reducing the healing rate on items would not make it and different for me, I would still destroy players in lobbies, but this would have a hugely negative effect on the healthy player base of the game, Most of the community hated the shield change (including me), so it doesn't need to be brought back up in a discussion. The only thing Apex has going for them right now is the old map, worlds edge, until olympus changes (garbage map btw, has the exact same effect of the reduced shields and is a haven for garbage players who can't aim), it will instantly make me stop playing this game and move onto something else if i'm forced to only play it.

    That's my two cent's buddy, coming from a day 1 player who has stuck through all the horrendous updates respawn has thrown at apex. (like how garbage worlds edge was in season 3), I didn't play that season much either btw, I quit; as did ALL of the friends I used to play with at the time.

    I'm not talking about changing healing items or any other novel you wrote. I just want shields in death boxes not to be charged

    Armor swapping is a skill move, and every single move should be ingame, and not be touched. Just because you have potato aim, doesn`t mean its bad for the game. Removing armor swapping and make you pop a battery when you pick a "dead" armor, will make the game unplayable, cause of 3rd party. Also will make the situation 1v2, 2v3 and 1v3 even worst.

    There is some mechanics that needs to be removed to not ****** the TTK, and thats it Lifeline Auto-revive, that totally mess up the game and stretch the fights, but armor swapping - Hell no !!!

  • Ehhhhh the lifeline auto revive doesn't bother me. It's pretty easily countered.

    @LuckyCanuckLuke [[ I'm not talking about changing healing items or any other novel you wrote. I just want shields in death boxes not to be charged ]]

    I completely disagree with this demand, as well as all those who played from the beginning of Apex.
    This request is not logical at all and this is an apex game, not a ridiculous and real shooting game.
    We all love Apex as it is, and if you do not like the model of this game, you can delete it.

    @LuckyCanuckLuke Remove armor swap? This is funny subject. Dont matter how long you have played. If you had played like most of us you would know nothing at all is wrong with it. Either get better at armor swapping yourself or die to those who do.

    @LuckyCanuckLukeLmao, you mentioned TTK being too slow!? Have you got your glasses on today? If you adjust the TTK, healing items MUST BE ADJUSTED ALSO. I've put it in red so you an see what you said.

    You can litterally die in less than 1 second. I don't know what game you are playing, but when I play Apex, most gunfights end in 10 seconds or less. Wether my team is winning or the other, fights rarely last longer than 10 seconds. The devs litteraly said a 1 second TTK is average. I have timed it, a full red can be killed by multiple weapons in 1 second or less.

    I will never understand why or how people like the 1 second TTK. It's awful, it is no fun to die in 1 second, to get shot and have no time to react. 

  • @Kateh8sapex That's exactly why players with no skill love it, because it'll turn into the "whoever shot you first" mentality, just imagine being shot by an entire squad at the same time, you'd have 0.2s to react.

    @MoNosDirtyGaming check competitive gaming footage 🙂 In my opinion a lot what you see as "noob" tactics is actually taking place there.

    Pro players mainly use armor swaps instead of heals = faster and/or to buff number of heals you can carry, not to be able to push one team after another like Marvel superheros.
