Apex Legends: "Escape" Gameplay Trailer discussion

Here's the gameplay trailer for S11. Map looks nice and much fun to play, and Ash seems a really strong legend (that tactical could make the difference when starting a fight).

But seeing Wattson slaughtered again makes me sad😢. Any thoughts?

@Cro_Pittt Wattson saying 'help plz', sums up Wattson mains perfectly 💀

Just saw it on GuhRL's stream, I'm still really meh. Dumb NPC's, dumb Tridents, new legend and gun are gonna be broken for the first 2-3 weeks, and if we add the usual connectivity and bug issues... yeah. 😑 At least the map looks nice. But the map designers have never been the problem in this game.

@Cro_Pittt Sad to see Wattson taken out twice already, but this isn't the end of Wattson and wraith as people are saying. Ash' tactical, while more Mobile, looks like it can only snare one target. Ultimates a one way portal, so that is gunna need total commitment.

I'm loving the look of the map, can't wait to see the animals on there.

I also love Ash herself, I might get some nostalgic titanfall feeling playing her. I really hope respawn doesn't skimp out on the lore like this season though.

@Cro_Pittt Ash's tactical is like 100 times more better than Wattson's when it comes to stopping people. We'll eventually get some Wattson love at the start of the season or more likely during the collection event as she'll get her heirloom.

@Cro_Pittt I am surprised the CAR shoots so quickly. Just seems like an R99 that can use two ammo types. I know the upped the Volt fire rate as well but that one was originally quite slow for an SMG, I was expecting CAR to have a similar rate to Titanfall with better accuracy but we’ll have no idea how it really is until a week or so I guess

@MyName1sNotJohn Based from some early gameplay, I think it will be OP and definitely annoying at the start. Expect threads mad about it soon. LOL. The sad thing about the CAR is that it should have a different fire rate/mode when switching from light to heavy ammo. They feel exactly the same.

@Cheese9Man Well i seriously hope it's like you said, changing the meta after several seasons would be nice. Do we have any leaks on patch notes?
@MyName1sNotJohn CAR smg looks definitely op, but i'm not surprised for this, i'm sure the start of the season will be messy lol.

@Cheese9Man I saw a post somewhere that the dps for both heavy and light ammo CAR is essentially the same

@Cro_Pittt No leaks on that unfortunately. Ryan Rigney said that they will release it later this week. Any thoughts on the map having no jump towers and having these Gravity Cannons? I think this is a "minor buff" for the defensive legends like Caustic and Wattson as you can place traps where people will land.
