It’s time to accept Arenas is a dead mode

Season 16. I would suggest playing arenas this season before the next season drops.

@Cheese9Man I'm not a big player of it. But I know many people who love the Arenas mode. They just don't want to deal with third partying and all of those aspects of the BR mode. I have also found Arenas mode is a good place for new comers to get some in game skill built with recoil control, guns and movement before jumping into the BR mode.

@DarthValtrex If there’s a huge player base for it then should it be Respawn’s job to add content into the mode? The mode has been rotting since March.

Oh by the way, if Respawn did not add any more content to Arenas since March then where did they put all that development into then? Is there like a new mode/s they introduced to Apex where they keep updating and adding maps? When was the last time we saw Arenas being in an Apex trailer being promoted?

Answer: Control and Gun Run
If you don’t have any plans of updating this mode and keep adding content season by season to Control and Gun Run then why not make them permanent?

  @Cheese9Man Thinking about this subject more I think the dev team has made one huge mistake with the different modes- They require different maps. If they'd make the modes in a way where they can use the same maps it sure seems like this would help with dev time. Maybe control could have been smaller maps if teams were smaller? Then gun run and control could have used the same maps? Maybe they could even have used arenas maps?

    @hayhor Was thinking the same thing. They can definitely reuse some of those control maps. I believe they can even put control on that snowy control map with the phase runner.
