The game is too slow

I know they already made the circle come in quicker, but it still feels too slow.valorant games can take an hour, yet i feel less bored playing it, since rounds last minutes and you always need to be...

@reconzero  18 minutes is barely enough to get loot and evo harvestors? I have to disagree with that

With 18 minutes you have time to waste on camping and wandering, as is my expirience. 

I don't dont games should go past 14-15 minutes, especially when you're playing for points and your team ends up killing themselves or you get 3rd partied.

@BETELX6 

If you feel 14+ minutes is too long, then this isn't the game you want to play.

Generally speaking, a video game can only cater to a few emotive aesthetics, perhaps 4 or 5 at best. BR is a natural for exploration, which by its very nature is best left to lengthier periods of play.

    @MrGreenWithAGun  You can definitely get good loot in that duration, especially with the loot box resets. As i've said, i love this game's concept and started playing in season zero. The current speed leaves to much room for camping, wandering, 3rd parties, and suffering garbage competitive teammates who kill themselves because they're too impatient to play carefully and strive for points.

    This game is currently better causally but competitively, tactical shooters are better.

    @MrGreenWithAGun As ive said, i love the concept of Apex. I started playing this game season 0, but i've gotten bored of the things that make the game less enjoyable competitively. Too much camping, wandering, and on top of that 3rd parites and bad ranked teammates. I've heard from many that its not a game in a good competitive and casual state, but its definitely better casually. I play many types of competitive games from TCGs, Tact shooters, fighters,  but Apex is still the only BR i would like to play but longer matches are not worth the design of them game, especially when there's more enjoyable longer competitive games.

      See, this is what I mean. If people are camping, that is their way of playing the game like it is chess.

      Too often I have had to run after my teammate that would always stay way out in front of us, only to be ambushed. Our teammate wasn't thinking. The other team was.

      This is a great game. I like the long periods between engagements. It allows me to think through options more clearly rather than just run run run.

        Camping is nowhere near chess. Camping is the easiest and laziest way to play shooters since the beginning of FPS. It's literally the "i want to play the game, but not really" strategy. Chess is methodical, calculated, and requires many years to master. Camping when you're a defense character is understandable but at the final ring, everyone has to move anyway. I hate the periods when nothing is happening, because this game is just not complex, like chess and TCGs. You loot up, choose your fights, try to avoid 3rd parties, and try to hold the best places in the ring.
