Bullet sponges

People have way to many hit points, I can literally empty an entire clip into someone and they don't go down. This is an issue...

i agree but you will never get a casual to agree to this honestly. If it takes more than 3/4 of a clip in a game to kill its too much. If you ask the average person on here they will say we need more armor it should take 100 mags to kill someone. they are already complaining about how the peacekeeper does actual damage and you dont have to shoot them with 50 mags to down them. Casuals want bullet sponge thats all their is to it. They don't want a game that actually is about skill now it is who has the bigger mag is who is going to win period`

Not dying in few bullets actually makes this game interesting, unlike pubg or fortnite where you can die from full hp instantly giving you no counterplay. Just keep playing apex it can be frustrating at start but once you get better you actually realize there are no bullet sponges and instead its nicely balanced. Some people say it takes away tactics and ability to 1v3, but thats not true it just takes away camping tactic and shooting enemies in back for some cheap kills. Its doable to do 1v3 and even win entire match alone without using WM or PK, i managed to do that few times so I'm not referring to pros like shroud, seagull and so on.

  i have won plenty of times and got plenty of kills getting better isn't the problem its the problem of do you want a game of skill or a game of pointlessness either game be fun but one has no place in a BR that is inherently about skill

    you really don’t seem to know what you are talking about higher ttk will always be better for the player with higher gun skill the lower ttk allows spray and pray as an option not to mention lower ttk helps campers which are usually lower skilled players I would like you to give me an example how higher ttk helps noobs cause I can not think of one

Skill? Games with higher hit-points encourage dueling, which takes more skill to begin with. You can't tell me that Unreal Tournament or Halo are not high skill games. That was the entire issue with PUBG, because a good player could get shot in the back by some camper with zero skill. In Apex, Halo, or Unreal Tournament etc etc if I get shot in the back by someone it does not mean that I'll lose the fight.
