How do you think Apex should be played?
Another question because I see some disagreement over this in quite a few comment sections on the internet. To me, I think the game is geared towards aggressive play, and placement is a reward for s...

Yes you can play how you want to but if you want to win it is generally around active plays either by quick rotations to have better placements or killing squads. The more you want to win, the more restricted on how you want to play because it’s directed by the current meta like you have to have a Seer and a Valk in your team. But for the general audience/players, do what you want to do.
On a personal level, my friends and I play aggressively. If we see you playing very cautiously by hiding or just sniping, you’re getting aped immediately. Apex feels the best when it’s fast paced. Can’t really hide in this game anymore because of the scan meta.
@Cheese9Man Hard agree that you need a Valk or a scan character, and playing aggressively, passive play can only get you so far.
@Unitee01 Some of the less than average players on this forum will definitely disagree with my take but in my lobbies you just can’t play passively anymore. The current state of apex is filled by just 2 types of legends, a mobility and a scan legend which will wreck any passive team. I play as Gibby but generally play aggressively with my premade squad.
edit: I appreciate people making threads like this. Thanks.
- @Cheese9Man Precisely, it gets crazy 🙂
Should be played with a controller or keyboard and mouse. Ba doooomch!
This is a controversial topic lol. People have strong opinions on this. IMO, you can't play overly aggressive, and you can't play too passive. You basically have to navigate through the map depending on where the circle ends and you need position, take fights when you need to, but also avoid fights when it's not in your favor. You are given more advantages as a superior skilled team, in terms of gun and movement skills, since you are more likely to be able to level up your evo shields faster, you will get more supplies and attachments from defeating other teams, and you will be ready and warmed up. You just have to make the right decisions as the circle moves. If you're passive, you could have the element of surprise by positioning and 3rd partying while other teams are fighting. But if you're too passive, you will be cold compared to the teams that have been fighting and you won't be as kitted as the teams that had fought several other teams by the time they got to the final circle.
