How can EA Allow this ?
How can EA just allow Respawn to just dictate that they don't want to have developer crunch. It's a joke of an excuse also stating that they want to push good content thus not rushing is weak argumen...
Oh dear.
White knighting? I'm being a realist. Your attempts to exaggerate to prove a point meant I didn't take you seriously from the get go.
I'm the reason for lazy developers? Really? So how did you draw that conclusion? I don't buy games on pre order. I don't even buy games soon after release. I buy them after I see/read trusted reviews, and I buy very very few games because of the decline in quality and upturn in loot boxes and micro transactions. I'm a very selective buyer FYI.
I played The Division 1 but won't buy the sequel because it's as broken as the first one. I've not bought a Cod, or Battlefield in over 4 years. Same * different year. I'm not supporting that tripe. I didn't buy Pcars 2 because the first was such a mess. Apex is free, so I tried it, enjoyed it and here I am. Don't presume you know me or my spending habits.
@Silz616 Since you're all comparing games to Apex. Let's compare fortnite to apex for two things.
-On release, both spent a lot of money on advertising, for obvious reasons. Huge launch, discover bugs later.
-Both games are of great quality, but had bugs.
People across the world had fortnite running at launch without issues in lounges, bars, homes, etc. because it was playable. And still do. Apex could be in that place if it lost some of it's bad notoriety, gained some good rep.
-The difference is most fps games remain playable, they fix things relatively quickly. There's a major difference between an exploit and a minor bug. Cheats and a minor bug. And then all of them happening at once; complete disaster. Shows that the launch was rushed and game files are insecure.
-Exploits should be fixed relatively quickly, but you can still make portal loops and punch the inside of a loot bin to fly across the map and everyone knows it. Pathfinder's hitbox is also a technical exploit. So that's why things are the way they are.
When someone has a rough game because there's many issues and cheaters in Apex- they're going to post on the forum. The developers have to take full responsibility, because other games had the same issues. op is right, Apex has had so many exploits I can't even remember them all. No other popular br has had this many impacted problems solved so slowly since h1z1. Especially since they have the resources. So it's more accurate to compare apex to h1z1 right now, which was a complete burn barrel.
Have you ever played pubg when it was over a year old it had a fix pubg movement because it was so broken and fortnite was not quick to fix problems in the beginning the br of the game was an after thought for fortnite you all amaze me with how little you remember about fortnite for the first 6 months
