Lack of motivation for OG player.

First and foremost, Apex is still my go to game, it’s still somewhat fun to play, but…..I’m getting kinda bored, and I’m not one to relinquish because of in game changes/buffs/nerfs, that doesn’t really faze me, I’m just bored in general with the game.

I get the feeling like there just isn’t anything for me to actually grind for anymore, as if I’ve plateau’d, and this for the last two seasons. BP just isn’t very enticing, already own 95% of legendary skins and what not, been level 500 for the longest time, the store just doesn’t get me excited either with the very bland recolours we’ve been getting as of late. Probably going to achieve Diamond as every other seasons playing rank, but with rewards taken away, I don’t even feel like ranking up.

For the top percentage of the player base, what is it that keeps you coming back to Apex considering the aforementioned points?

    @apostolateofDOOM i totally respect not liking the game and not want to spend money on it and trust me ik this game has more issues than just footstep audio but the positives for me outweigh the negatives. And yeah im not saying everyone is happy with the game rn but what ive seen is that after the armor revert, a lot of the community is happy.
    Also may i ask why you thing comp on pc is dead?
  • @RustedYoda I just had a bronze teammate in Plat lobby. I don't like the ranked RP design tbh. Yeah, Apex runs better than other BRs for me but some issues are longstanding.
    About the armor revert, nobody asked for that in the first place. Good thing Devs realized their mistake sooner and acted on it quickly for the sake of players.
  • @RustedYoda Well ranked is the competitive mode and as i said earlier there aren't that many top tier players EU otherwise we wouldn't have such mixed ranks constantly. So it's either declining ranked players or ranked is completely broken. Neither bodes well for the comp scene.

    Active player participation from USA is roughly 38.92% so i assume it's much better over there but they server jump to EU anyway.. Many players have spoken of the poor pay out for ALGS. Think someone calculated that even if you won one a year, after splitting it you would earn more in a job at McDonalds. Not very lucrative for an e sport and many putting their eggs into streaming instead.

    Also with crashes at tournaments, initial poor legend + weapon balancing (granted it has improved), general poor stability and/or reliability and atrocious audio. Respawn have a reputation now of not getting these things fixed asap (for whatever reason) and not something people want to bank their income on.

    Not to mention lowering the skill ceiling with well over a handful of updates now.

    @apostolateofDOOM  You're 100% being put into queues other than London server mate. I was literally talking to Vernon and Ghost about this the other day lol, we just get chucked straight into EU lobbies. I think warzone/fortnite is probably much more popular in the UK than apex is. 😛

    @BaldWraithSimp Oh the bronze thing might have been a match making error cuz i dont think that they arent enough players in plat/gold to in any region fill a lobby. And the revert kinda proves that if theres a huge amount of the player base wanting something the devs listen (atleast some times)

    @apostolateofDOOM i will have to agree that the pro scene in this game is kinda dead but in my eyes the base game is doing fine but thats just me
