Visible health bars & low TTK
I genuinely believe adding visible health bars and ruining the TTK has taken away a lot of what made Apex and the fights great and interesting to play or watch. Season 21 was the last time we played...
Forum Discussion
You clearly don't play enough and didn't play older seasons if you don't understand how the dynamics of the fights have changed dramatically since both changes were implemented. My post clearly explains all of that.
Also, the only reason I have an alt is to play Ranked with my friends who are in silver/gold. It's literally still a level 30 account that I barely play and never play solo with.
I didn't answer/address your questions/points because none of it was even relevant to what I'm saying. You basically just said it's a skill issue along with a bunch of other nonsense. My post explains itself pretty clearly.
Health bars give away not just your HP info but they also give away your position in fights/where you're moving to and are still visible through things it shouldn't be (trees/foliage). Do you even remember what "posturing with shields" was?
Low TTK isn't good because they can't balance all the weapons/legend utility to be viable in fights when everyone gets knocked so quickly and the fights end so fast. The top of the meta weapons/legends are arguably even stronger relative to before. It's also made the fights a lot more predetermined compared to the back-and-forth nature that teamfighting in Apex was like for most of its life.
The fights are just less fun, interesting, and dynamic overall. That's my entire point.
Also your replies are clearly more toxic than either of my posts and this has nothing to do with "hackers". They're just called cheaters btw. Also it's speechless*
If you want me to get toxic, you type like a 16 year old and you must be on console if you think you need to "hack" to keep up with Masters/Preds.
Did my comments hit where it hurts? :)
Don't forget it is you hacking / posting stats for no reason / flexing all while not providing objective facts, replies to states questions.
Here, have some more:
- feast your eyes
I guess being top 0.3% in terms of level shows that I have played this game more than 99.7% of people...
- your argument about alt / smurf account would be valid...10 seasons ago or so when Respawn heard crybabies like you and removed 1.5 tier protection so you could play with your friends.
Yet I know what you will say - your nub friend can't keep up with Master/Pred lobbies you in... so you make that other people problem by being so good and yet going into sub Plat carrying/boosting your friend.
You just lucky Respawn struggles for active player count numbers, otherwise I am sure smurfs like you would be removed instantly and not spoil experience to new players / nub level like your friend there. - continuing theme of friends - sure they could improve on their own, playing pubs with your guidance...but that's for plebeians, real winners just get 2+ tiers higher elo superstar and get carried.
- nice try on flexing Masters...even if I would not have one based on my knowledge it used to be the case where Masters were <1% of all ranked player base, in some cases even sub 0.5%, lately with hacking and boosting epidemics those numbers have risen above 3% sometimes reaching 5%. Now back to your "insult" = 95%+ of people reading this would be those, who have never been Masters...I guess you wanted to insult basically whole ranked player based except superstars like you and Preds. Sure, I will take it that I am top 10% of bottom 95% of the game, my ego can take it, always was and always will be.
If you want to compare your aimlabs or kovaaks scores, let me know your nickname :) I will add you / share mine. 😁 from console obviously 🤣
You are exactly one of those kids from Zeus YT videos who flex hacks and when banned can't take any responsibly and act like victims. Sad story, your life outside game will be really hard with such self-esteem. Try to keep out of jail :) as hacking outside games are punished much better than Respawn does it here in Apex :)
You're actually unhinged. I can barely understand the point you're trying to make with the way you type.
If all you got out of my mediocre stats is that I'm clearly a cheater, then I'm flattered.
Also if you were actually knowledgeable on the subject you would know that nobody uses Apex Tracker and that ApexLegendStatus is more accurate.
Here's my alt: https://apexlegendsstatus.com/profile/PC/callmebluebabyClearly I've been smurfing non-stop on this level 35 account that I've occasionally used since launch to play with my MMO friends in discord...
Here's my main: https://apexlegendsstatus.com/profile/PC/Mastiffbique
Literally only hit Masters 3 times because most seasons I don't grind ranked that hard after Diamond.
You've gone on this tangent accusing me of being a cheater for no real reason and I'm truly baffled by the diarrhea of words you just spit out.
Admitting you're on console explains a lot. Typical console player who doesn't know what he's talking about and thinks every PC player above plat must be a "hacker".
PC isn't console where ranked is infested with Xims, Titans, and teamers. I'm literally just an average diamond-level player on PC, borderline Masters if I played enough and had a consistent 3-stack.You're literally a higher account level than me yet you only have 3k total kills, do you just live in Mixtape or something? Explains why you don't know average career stats when you see them.
If I was actually cheating on PC and basically hardstuck Diamond like I am now, then I think I'd probably need to spend money on some better cheats.
Does this look like cheats to you?
I'm assuming you still play on console because you can't afford a good PC. It would make sense for someone that can barely type out a coherent sentence.
And none of this is even relevant to why I made this post. I'll reiterate my point. I simply think the game is less fun with visible health bars and low TTK.
To sum up:
- Posts stats, flexes Masters = in reality average controller player (I assume / guess) stats, Masters only in free to take seasons starting with infamous season 17 :D
- In reality low level Diamond with smurf account to boost ego
- Above average yet nothing special skill level despite stats part -> explains why health bars bother you so much
- Still no objective data provided regarding change in TTK
- I take back my comment about hacking, as you no soloq / real master with 2kd, just a typical sad player who flexes free badges and as can be seen now in stats struggles like most ex-diamonds to go through hack littered plat lobbies
All I can say - formulate your case better + think twice before posting as you clearly can't handle feedback nor you seem to be anything more than casual semi-ranked player who cares not about the grind = as soon as things get tough in ranked you switch to smurf or quit ranked...health bars is not the problem for you.
p.s. I will ignore your questions and assumptions about my skill level, playing routines etc.
