The disappearance of Split 1 means I'm not buying seasons ever again.
First time posting here, because man, am I livid.
I've been playing Apex Legends since season zero, and have hit level 110 on every season... until now.
I play other games besides Apex, and for the past few weeks I've turned my attention away from it - with the intent to return and earn the reactive P2020 skins once I had the time.
(I earned everything in Split 1 except for those P2020 skins.)
So imagine my disappointment when logging in today and realizing that Split 1 is completely gone; completely replaced by Split 2 and an entirely different rewards track.
I seriously thought that Split 2 was going to add levels and rewards on top of Split 1. I thought I would be able to reach level 60 in Split 1 this week, and then continue on with Split 2 as if this was all one normal-length season.
In other words, I thought Split 1 was Battle Pass levels 1-60, and that Split 2 was levels 61-110.
I was even prepared to purchase Split 2 under that assumption.
Repeating for effect.
I was prepared to purchase Split 2 under that assumption.
But if this is how Apex/Respawn is going to handle Battle Passes and reward tracks moving forward - with two half-seasons that cannot overlap or combine reward tracks...
I'm done. You've lost me as a paying player.
I simply do not have the personal time or drive to dedicate purely to Apex in order to unlock everything in the Battle Passes under this new formula.
I'll consider putting money into the game again if things change in the future - either by returning to the old way of ranking up Battle Passes, or if how I thought it would go becomes the norm.
