    @Gabrielmojo26 But in reality with lower ttk and evo, fights took longer because everyone held back and charged their evo doing exactly this.

    ''popping shots back and forth until one team is practically out of heals''

    Also COD is fine with one shot in small maps but it's a different set of skills that those playing Apex were accustomed to.

    @apostolateofDOOM We've pushed multiple teams utilizing zips, Gibby bubbles, Bang's smoke and what not....and damn was it satisfying putting them down to the detriment of them having a sniper riffle come CQB.

    Because I haven't seen it mentioned yet, I'm really happy Gold is back to being a "hell f'ing yeah got me a gold shield I'm winning this game". lol

    @Gabrielmojo26 I never thought the gold was bad with lower ttk. You only lost a cell to one shield spot. It still used syringes to heal the same as before. I thought the whole omg gold sucks not was a farce.
  • Thanks for this revert...Though My suggestion previously, if consider would have landed the game in a better sweet spot. You could have just Made the final evo cell, something "temporary".

    To explain further, this final cell comes filled up, when the armor evolves..and stays there for 30 secs or a minute(whichsoever better). After duration up, the cell becomes empty and can "only be filled by eliminating a squad". This will give the players who engage an extra "buff" after the elimination of the squad.

    Please do consider this.. For it will encourage both aggressive yet patient play.

    My issue with this is that by Reverting the ttk it’s obvious that they are listening to fans.  It just seems as if they are listening to only what they choose to listen to though.  The game is plagued by issues,glitches, disconnects, Sbmm, awful servers, hit registration problems and most of all atrocious audio.  All these issues are voiced by fans regularly. Where are the fixes for those issues?  Where are some of the developers addressing those issues which have made the game almost flat out unplayable for some especially anyone who solo ques at this point?  

  • Personally, I really enjoyed the 25 less armor change at the beginning of the season and was pretty shocked when I found out it was reverted.

    How I want the armor values to be...

    Go back to the 25 less shields like it was at the beginning of Season 6, but make the Gold and Red armor have the same capacity (100) with Gold only spawning maybe 3-5 times per match scattered either in the blue areas, vaults, or high tier loot areas in King's Canyon (since it doesn't have vaults). In my eyes, Gold armor should be the armor everyone wants to have since it has that extra perk. But since Red armor has more shield capacity, Gold armor isn't as desirable anymore.

    Side Note: I have always thought it was really weird and annoying how health heals take longer to use than shield heals and I've always thought they should be the same or at least make the health heals take just a second less than they do now. My main wonderment with these speeds is both the syringe and shield battery take 5 seconds to use... one heals for 25 health (50 if you have Gold armor) and the other can heal for 50, 75, 100, or 125 shields... it's just weird.
