everyone, put on your tin foil hat
it's time for some conspiracy theory thread (just for fun) ....not
I've noticed something which I mentioned when arenas got released.
the thing is that every time there is a new mode or an event the game feels so easy when playing that event.
everything feels so smooth, the matchmaking is balanced, and weapons and movement feel right, in simple words, the game feels FUN
In terms of aim specifically, I still remember when I played areas for the first time.
In the first 10 matches or so, I literally was able to clip anyone who come in my way.
the game felt so nice, it was letting me win and honestly, it was fun to some extent, fast forward to this season.
I am not saying I am a decent apex player, just maybe a little close to half decent.
the other day I wanted to play control which I played only for a few matches since they released this mode.
will give some stats before I continue, I average 1 or two kills per match and average 8 % win rate with 1.6-lifetime KDR so nothing crazy.
so after being away from control for a long time, I thought to play one match of control to warm up.
I picked up the R301 and you can say I just destroyed everyone I encountered, 90% of my kills were 1 clip.
I wasn't even missing a shot, the crazy thing is I wasn't even trying, all easy kills and no sweat it felt like I don't even have to aim.
got 25 kills with 9 assists and 5000 + damage.
and I want to mention that all 9 assists should have been my kills if it wasn't for my teammate literally standing in front and taking most of my shots and stealing my kill with less than 30 HP.
after the match, I was thinking " wow, how did I do that, it was super easy"
so I switch to BR, same server, same controller, and same settings, so I picked the R 301.
maxed it out but guess what, I was having a hard time hitting half of my clip.
so what changed, how did the performance swing this way, is it possible that they crank up the aim assist sometimes?
or let's say during event times to make people feel that this mode is fun?
is it just luck, and how come something like this repeats during events?
did anyone encounter this before? (someone mentioned the same thing after introducing arenas by the way).
and someone else said " wait for two days and everything will go back to normal "
is it possible that Respawn can TUNE accounts or a group of accounts and assist them to win or pull them down to lose?
let me know what you guys think
and excuse my excellent English
