Game is less and less enjoyable as a solo player.

I have been playing this franchise since the beginning as a solo player. Each season starts to become more problems than it's worth.

From random people that only care about looting or the ones that are so kill thirsty it compromises the whole team. It just becomes boring and frustrating.

Dropping in with people that have zero communication skills or team gameplay. I find myself playing it less and less. On top of all the bugs and issues that infect this game.

What happened? Apex seemed like a good game and tried soooooo hard to look the other way with things. Now SBMM amplifies these issues.

Pretty soon I will forget this all together. Shame really. All the time and money invested seems like such a waste.

@GucciiWallet I downloaded it too at launch cause I liked the name and heard it was fighting with kitchen utensils...

What I learned upon downloading was that it was a buggy, low fps PUBG with normal and kitchen utensils armor but with actual guns...

Needless to say, I stopped after 2 games in which my first got D/C’d out of the blue and in the second I got a win. So my win rate was 100% weirdly enough because first game didn’t count :P

I call that a win! :P

If you play on pc as well @ColdHours, try spellbreak battle royale :P

@ColdHours Players, that's what happened. This is the reality. Only a few are willing to "sweat" and can rise up to the high level of gameplay that makes Apex so special.

Even the issues of the game happen because of players in the end. Many devs would love to develop almost bugproof tools and better engines, but who's going to invest thousands and wait the decade that is needed? Players lack the patience and the understanding of even basic things like 9 moms put together not being able to give birth to a child in one month.

@DoYaSeeMe Honestly mate, it's glaringly obvious that players hold their part of the blame, but i mean the devs aint exactly innocent either.
Many of us have pointed out that the majority of content added on this game is purely financially driven, which would be fine if we were seeing actual solid improvements to the game.
But all we see is;
-Ill conceived buffs with roll backs.
-weapons buffed to a nice place only to be reverted to the trash they were.
-Long term bugs that just seem to be ignored.
-Highly expensive events.
I've defended this game for a long time, there's countless posts proving this. However i'm reaching the point where even i'm thinking the game just isn't worth playing in its current state. I'm really hoping they get their act together a bit with season 4 and fix some of the core issues...but i'm not holding my breath.

@ColdHours I don't know what happened but every single of my game today was intense af. Like I was enjoying it totally. It was fun and addicting(with randoms). Don't know about SBMM, weirdly it never affected my games. Some days my games are just loot simulator lol.

It would be nice with all the issues player based and bug wise if they at least upped the tick rate. Put the money to good use somewhere.

Can confirm that Fortnite with 30Hz tickrate is still plagued with hitreg and latency problems.
