@MyCanklesHurt it really is...had tons of fun in the first week or two. then the bugs and server issues and imbalances if gameplay came to light. had a chance to be a REALLY good game with a REALLY large and diverse player base but slow actions and pigheadedness by the devs have at least quartered the player base. core game mechanics were great and brought alot of players from other games over. but now the features that made apex different have been scooped and implemented by other games. dont misunderstand me...being different is not what made the game appealing. the movement style and gun play style are by no means revolutionary as it can be found in several other games like warframe and titanfall to name off the top...but apex was out for 2 weeks when epic said "hey! people like being able to respawn teammates"...guess what...the next week it was in fortnite...epic saw a interact command for ziplines...1 week later it was in fortnite...epic saw the balloons that allow for redeploy...guess what...1 week later their were gysers that redeploy. everything that made respawn different is no longer unique to apex. they experience massive growth REALLY quick and responded terribly. it doesnt take 2 months to fix a bug. this is evident by how quickly bugs get patched in fortnite. now im not saying they have to follow fortnites update regime with content but they should have at least followed thier patch policy.
there was so much potential to grow this game to unseen heights. the addition of different game modes such as solo/duo/quads/tdm/rumble/capture/ranked/king of the hill and a slew of others could have kept large portions of the now missing player base and expanded them even further. and before some idiot says "you know how long it takes to code a game mode?" here ya go...epic releases at least 3 LTM PER WEEK!!!! the heart of the matter is that the devs stupidly missed the best opportunity to make this game the best it could be.
can it still be good provided ideology changes? YES
will it ever be what it could have been under proper management? NOT A CHANCE
