Anyone else not looking forward to season 5?
With the recent leaks I've seen I'm starting to feel a bit worried about season 5. The leaks indicate that the map update is only on kings canyon. This means that the game will probably be more focus...

i never understand people who complains about a something like a map. if you can play here you can play there, if you can learn how to traverse in the first one you can learn that for the second, and same goes for any new map that will come. a good player is a good player where he drops, only problem with KC after night was due to visibility issues for 90% of people.
so please stop complaining.
please understand on thing people, unlike all other RBs, respawn is telling a story here on a universe that already established with it's locations, factions and conflicts, so please enjoy the game as it is.
@Zeues-1992 That's not really something that should apply to ranked play. You're absolutely right when it comes to some sort of story, or nostalgic play. And bringing back an old, bad map every once in a while for fun is fine.
But King's Canyon, basically still their first attempt at a map with changes, is awful. And if it was good, like World's Edge, then you wouldn't be able to do what I'm talking about. You 'git gud' by ditching your team in KC, while you don't playing WE.
Now, sure, if they edit it does it stand a chance of being better? Maybe. But they've done that how many times now with KC? It's fundamentally a bad map, that is too small, that encourages you to abandon your team to survive, and while it was the first try, should be abandoned for any real attempt at playing a good game. That part of the story is done, no need to make people have to play it for ranked. Keep it to events.
@KelRieverWhen did you start playing?
Can you elaborate on this for me ''You can only do what I'm talking about in KC because that's how bad that map is'' and also why does it encourage you to abandon your team to survive? Surely in a smaller map where the action is closer your survivability will increase staying together?Edit: I would find your playstyle quite troublesome going from this and actually explains why I'm not keen on WE.
''You know you've got a good game in KC if your 2 team mates follow you, and you all basically roam and collect until you're in final 5. Then go do the dumb firefight and see if you win. Otherwise, your team mates were just going to get you killed anyway''.
@apostolateofDOOM On such a small map, you're never going to survive the initial drop unless you run away. You can stick together as much as you want, you won't be a team after you're third partied to death. Played since season 1, quit Apex after I saw what was up, came back in Season 4 and stayed because World's Edge is so much better.
Sorry, King's Canyon is pointless even when you win. You don't even win firefights because of skill, you win because you ended up being the last one there. There's no aiming involved, no strategy or thinking, nothing but * twitching and pure rng luck. It's like people thinking they have skill when they won roulette. They don't, and the casino loves that kind of sucker.
You can see it from casual play to ranked, you can see it when pros play if you like esports. World's Edge fixed everything wrong with KC including the size, and makes for a better game. There's no point in going back other than for nostalgia.
