TTK is 2 Fast | The Game Is Dying

I have played this game since launch and I can confidently say this update that released today is the worst one we've ever had. I will preface this with I am a 12x Master player and am quite skillful at the game. Last season I got Master on both PC and Xbox. 

Why would the devs change the game so drastically? Why do the devs do things no one asked for? The gameplay should NOT feel like I'm playing a TDM match in COD. I want to know who thought it was a good idea to change the perfect evo system to a system with LESS shields, no helmets, AND faster TTK? Apex gameplay always gave you the chance to reset after getting beamed and possibly win the interaction. I am getting 3rd partied every fight so this change didn't help this in the slightest and this game will still be forever called "3rd Party Legends". Ash is unbearably OP now with her dashes and everyone chooses her. This game used to be so balanced back in the day... what happened? Do the devs do these crazy changes for shock value thinking people are going to be more interested in the game? It won't. The hype will last for 2 weeks and then their core player base is going to look for other games to play. They just need to make Titanfall 3 if they want fast TTK. It sucks all the fun out of Apex when you can't methodically choose your fights and tactically retreat. On console you have to deal with Cronus Zen, Strikepacks, and now Xim's. With all these cheats that EA/Respawn doesn't patch why would they allow a faster TTK? Also I got DDOS'd 2 times on PC already. Fix your game guys.

I will not be playing anymore until either a hotfix or a major revision is put into place. Bring back true balanced gameplay. This is no longer the game I fell in love with.

    It's the first time I ever log into EA's forums to come and post that exact thing. Thank you sir.

    Btw i'm also a day 1 player. The appeal of Apex to me resides in the gunplay, the movements' mechanics and the strategic aspect of the fights (using your squad's loadout and legends). Shortening TTK effectively removed a lot of strategy and a lot of movement play. The first to shoot wins the low skilled fights and for the higher skilled player they will most likely stall the fight looking for an option only to get 3rd partied anyway. This meta is even worse for those who get backstabbed. 
    To add to the train-wreck that is this patch on movement, what the hell is going on with Ash? The goal was to remove the octanes with macros not to add another one! 

    All the QoL features are a welcome, I don't want to say everything has to burn. But the core gameplay really has me wondering if I want to continue playing a game that has strayed (for the first time, imo) from its fundamentals. Sure metas come and go, some I'd prefer to other, but this time it's the whole philosophy of the game that's changed, and I'm not impressed at all.

    Ladopamine I agree with you, I honestly like playing solo since I feel like I get more damage and kills without needing to carry teammates, but the new TTK is making it really hard to do so. 

    And Ash, she honestly never needed a buff, or a change to her passive, she was extremely good with her new perks, I do like her ultimate is more useable, but they never had to change her, like Revenant honestly, never needed one either, they should have just buffed him. Lifeline though needed a rework, even though she is a bit op. I honestly stopped playing Revenant after they changed him which I just hate. For Ash, everyone is using her now, I can never get to use her.

    I came back to try it out like a week ago, and veil i like a little faster TTK, with this one they went just a little to far with it! Just a little longer TTK(or should i say Time to die) and i  think it would be fine!
