Amazing update!
Just wanted to say this update is so much fun. Dropship change, ranked, all of it. Hats off!

It is simple to see what they are doing, they are sacrificing its old player base to the TTV and streamers, that keeps eyes on the game and the new style attracts new players. I heard they are using the wildcard to test stuff that will become part of the game, and probably how they will come out with Apex legends 2. Now when they finalize Apex Legends 2 the old player base will come back. Win win for them but bad for any long time player.
How is a more competitive ranked system (proven by ranked distribution graphs), a fun mode for trying out new things in, considered bad for the old player base? I've been playing since day one and I wanted this kind of thing for years. I finally have a mode to play if my friends are offline and it's such a blast. I don't see how anyone hates these changes.
Modes are great, though i personally think the new ranked is bad. BUT...... I never said that any of that is bad. You need to read what i wrote. It all comes down to matchmaking. Chaperone style, level 100 with two level 10s in a room the is stacked from intro players to preds. Lobbies stretched end to end. EA is horrible.
And my only take on ranked being bad since i dont really play ranked at all, I have no time to play got a rank. I play when i have time. Ranked games for all games have always been a ranked version of the same game. Now it is a ranked version of a game that plays similar. Hot dropping and dropping safe was never an issue, you could always drop safe in Apex and land in a not hot zone. But now you get stuck in the middle of the map and people know the zones and run through teams. That is also a win win for steams and pro players. Loot spread out even. Maybe great for some but from what i read it is hit or miss, people love or hate it. But to me it is just a different version of the same game and made if more like the ALGS. But i never said anything about that till this message and only saying my opinion on the matter and what i read, i could care less about how ranked is done!
