Give me all your info so i can copy/paste in my own own thread and reap all the XP! 😛Seriously though, i have seen many gameplay forum guides for other games made by a specific person but seeing this in another thread gave me an idea to create a community based guide both by and for everyone while saving one person from putting all the effort in themselves.We create a basic version that we all add a bit to like https://answers.ea.com/t5/General-Discussion/Apex-Legends-Quality-of-Life-Improvement-Requests/td-p/8318265 that evolves over time.Once we have a reasonable amount we ask a hero or @EA_David to either post or sticky it. I don't want to do any dodgy deals with these champions as they have enough XP! Just a thought..

@DarthValtrex "Some players run dual CQC but that’s more advanced skill sets and knowing how to bait teams into CQC."You mean ping the enemy and use your rando's blind charge as a tool to flank round. XD

@MandatoryIDtag It's not always about you!Spoiler (Highlight to read)but this time it might have been. 😛but this time it might have been. 😛@Koochi-Q I edited it slightly so hopefully it's more clear now but i mean a gameplay guide we can send people to on the forums instead of them randomly searching different sources.

@Koochi-Q I believe I was black listed from this thread. @apostolateofDOOM said "I don't want to do any dodgy deals with these champions as they have enough XP!" so...Haha, so we are all trying to contribute to a beginners guide? I don't really know where to start. I suppose going into the firing range and adjusting settings so they are familiar.From there picking a legend is a big one. Who's the most forgiving legend in the game? I feel like Bangalore is still fairly forgiving. The smoke, ult and her double time all equate to the ability to get out of trouble or back to your squad. I think the issue is that people expect too much from the smoke/ult. It's not going to blind enemies for long, it will just buy you seconds that is it. So either use to it to make an exit or reset the fight but what ever they do, do it fast.. Um gun wise, I feel like the Spitfire is still fairly forgiving, huge mag so if they miss shots it's not a huge deal. R-301 is not a bad option for players who struggle with recoil control but have good accuracy. Alternator is not half bad for people who don't have great aim because of its slow fire rate.Some tips? For noobs don't save your legends abilities for "emergencies" it's better noobs use them and occasionally waste them, then the abilities go entirely unused. They'll figure out when to use them and when not to as they get more experience but they'll never learn that if they are not using them.Practice recoil control in the firing range, maybe even explain how to turn the dummies on in the firing range? What would you say are the top unspoken rules of apex? That all needs to be part of the thread as well. Big ones for me...1. Don't loot teammates death boxes unless it's absolutely necessary for health/shield swap or the teammate can't get back to their death box.2. When your teammates need to be respawned heal up and respawn them before looting enemy death boxes unless you're just grabbing better armor. You want your mates back in the game ASAP so you're not in a 1vs3 situation. 3. It's a team game, so be a team player don't run off.

@DarthValtrex Yet here you are 😈 cause you're a rebel! You don't care what others say which is good!Now lets see some vid play so you can put your money where your mouth is!I think the Apostolate's intentions are pure but without pinning or a comprehensive guide thats pinned, it'll be yet another tip thread. I know we already have several of those xD thats why I mentioned videos. That'll make it better and easier to grasp for ppl. But even that has been done to death by streamers so best thing is to look at videos and judging which are the best ones and just plaster them on the thread with no talking, only vids.So we can use this for talking and discussing if a particular vid is 'gud enuff' and when we have everything, one of us (not it) can make a new 'no reply thread' with all vids in chronological order.Or you know, we make vids ourselves, but thats extra work... But it'll get job done better since we can dictate what should be in vid, like in one we cover movement only, in another pre-aiming and such (all with commentary of course), but like I said this has been done before.

I see that dig.Spoiler (Highlight to read)Now I ain't helping. :DNow I ain't helping. :D

@MandatoryIDtag I knew it! You were scavenging XP you XP hog! Got you now.

@apostolateofDOOM do you mean guidelines or something? For whatever reason I'm not following the intent

@apostolateofDOOMAhhhh I get it now :P

Well you're an (Ex-)predator, you should do the advanced video guide :P

okay who's bad at the game, you can do the beginner course...

We'll let @DarthValtrex do the medium since he likes educating ppl :P
Cause what says guide now more than video guide since ppl don't like to read nowadays... :P

@Koochi-QI was thinking of breaking it down into beginner, intermediate and advanced and we could make some videos but some are already out there which we could just put in as they're already in the public domain.

Gathering all relevant info into one place that more experienced players might not have seen or known about and save time to help new ones.
Just realised you want me to embarrass myself with my editing again.. 😛

@apostolateofDOOMSome are out yea... But not DOOM endorsed and Slayer approved! What better way to spread our message than by ~~brainwashing~~ teaching new ppl how to play the game and get on Slayer lvl if they get good enough!

I'm not a gatherer tho... Gathering sounds like work and that's not good :P it needs to flow like the ocean, all naturally.

Nooo... Tha... Thats not it. Why would you think that *chuckles nervously while pretending to keep composure while thinking "damnnit, how did he figure it out... He's sharper than a prairiebird on a honey trip"*

@Koochi-Q Well we have to get the content right.. Once we have a final copy of the thread, we can create a new one with the beginners guide then ask to have it stickied. Since Apostolate is the OP here I'll let him work on it.. Video wise I'll see if I can get some clips of some solid Bangalore play and effective use of her abilities.
