All i have to say is amazing job at creating a new mode and also adjusting certain items in the game to better suit the mode. As a Apex Legend fan, I jumped straight into the new game mode without reading the patchnotes and was met with great fear when we made it to top 5 and realized we did not have armor. I later found out that the mode only has lvl1 armor but it is rare to find. Knowing this, I jumped straight into the rest of my fights knowing they had the same lvl1 armor or none. This mode is extremely fun and just out there that suits both campers and rushers. One minor issue I have is seeing a lot of open spaces on the ground where loot use to be. Everything in this mode is hard to find but maybe filling those spaces with basic nades or just attachments would be nice.

This event is certainly going to change the game i think.Gonna be helluva lot of good snipers by the end of it. XD

Next limited gamemode will be 'Total Brawl'.... no weapons, just punches LOL

I enjoy this mode a lot, far more than solos, probably because the Longbow and the Peacekeeper are my favorite weapons.. But, although I got a win after getting respawned in round 3 by some great random teammates, I feel this mode suffers greatly from bad teamplay and early quitters. I can understand the fear of jumping from the ship or running for a revive or banner recovery out in the open, in a match full of snipers, but not all players are "aimbots", there are good chances of escaping with some good moves, especially since the bullet spraying weapons are not available. Also, I think Wraith is seriously advantaged by her inner voice warnings, luckily they sometimes come after the headshots 🙂

Sorry, but as a completely counter opinion - who exactly thought that this LTM would be fun as it is? At all? Like even a tiny bit? Incoming rant, so - short/polite version: please increase gun spawn rates, because this mode is really. REALLY not fun with gun drop rates at current levels.Ranting version, because holyshit:The whole premise is "shotguns versus snipers".....and then you nerf gun spawns to what seems to be about 10% of normal drop rates? WHY? FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WHY??? Just keep the spawn rates the same, and make all the guns shotguns and snipers! Boom! Done! You had a hit on your hands, and then you did..this.You even thought of other GOOD ways to balance things. Only 2 types of guns? Cool. Limited armour, to make it more intense - love it. But running around an entire goddamn zone without getting a single gun is complete *. Please, can someone tell me a SINGLE downside to being able to pick up a gun when you drop, in a game whose entire purpose is to SHOOT PEOPLE WITH GUNS? What exactly was the purpose of this change? I'd say whoever thought up that particular gem/detail should be dragged out back and shot....but I know I wouldn't be able to find a gun to do it with. I didn't make a single peep during the whole cash shop debacle.....I know there are lots of complicated things to balance in a game this big, especially when money is involved....but holy * guys. You actively had to go out of your way to find a way to make your new LTM not fun. This game IS supposed ot be fun to play, right?

@Fr3dY2 Actually some knuckledusters that would crack armor in one hit would be something, also to have different combos and damage values depending on running / jumping / crouching / sliding when you melee. This could be a new mode (melee royale) or it could happen starting round 4, with survivors having their weapons and ordnance teleported off their hands, with everyone's location becoming visible on the map (as an anti camping/hiding feature).

With this new mode going, now it's even harder to detect whether it's cheaters or not. lol.

Agreed this mode is amazing and i always try to rock the Longbow & EVA-8.
It's pretty balanced with the loot adjustments.
There are no bad landing locations but only the empty spots are a bit anoying, if you get unlucky you can run around 1-2 minutes without a weapon.
Making mistakes is not forgiving and you will be downed if you do a misplay and i love it!:eahigh_file:

I have been wanting to learn how to snipe better and this mode seems like it might help with that. I didn't think I was going to like it, but after a few rounds I became addicted. It is so much fun!

Played 6 ‘long’ games or so... well never found a damn armor in those games... and when I finally landed a 110 headshot... guess what, enemy has shield.

It was supposed to be that norm shields would be as rare as lvl 2/3/4 shields... averagely per game on the ground I find 3 blue shields on the ground... sometimes way more and every other game a lvl 3 shield... 6 games no shield is laughable

@Koochi-Q Well, that may be because of people like me that grab them, together with golden weapons, only to die stupidly outside the ring :P.
