@hayhor Yeah, but then we will have 3 shotguns on the ground? Isn't that a bit too much?
Oh btw apparently we will have white shields from the drop (finally!).
- hayhor4 years agoHero@Cro_Pittt 4 technically which is ok with me. I just want prowler back. I don't get this tripletake in a care package with kraber stuff tho. Right now if I get a care package gun I'm happy because the PK, prowler and kraber are all fun to use. A TT........only if it is as strong as a kraber. But if it is that means double the OP sniper guns in game.

Valk yellow skin confirm this sequence (right to left) :
- 4 years ago@Cro_Pittt & @hayhor I say wait it out. It might’ve been an old build where they got the clips from ^.^

I'm a tad bit upset that they resorted to throwing octane skin on wraith instead of just designing new skins. Recycling skins once again. They raised the mask to be on the head. Just seems a lot of effort was not put into skins from design teams.
The arena mode looks cool though ill say. But valk just does not belong in apex legends. Its taking the game entirely different direction than the apex we once knew. I don't mind changes but the last 2 seasons are just jumping leap years ahead of how apex operated and was designed. Olympis being a new world not falling in the line of other maps in the game. Now a legend who can fly who can shoot a barrage of guided mistles at you. Just will never be the same apex again. My idea may change upon playing it. But just looking at valk it's going to be nothing but complaints on how overpowered she is and will be. I just feel they are moving way to fast from the orig apex we all know.
- 4 years ago@E9ine_AC Lolz the way I saw it in the trailer is what multiple ppl have said.
Valk is basically mini-dmg bangalore/gibby rocketeer mixed with Horizon with 1 click of the ult converting to path & octane with another click with the final touches being bloodhound while flying and on the ground any recon person :P - E9ine_AC4 years agoHero+@Koochi-Q Speaking of bloodhound i sure hope they thought that out and make his scan radius to read higher positions. Like if valk and his team is in the air and bloodhound scans i sure hope he can pick them up at those ranges as he should be able to. He also would need a trail trackers if in his ult to see someone has recently flown and landed.
- 4 years ago@E9ine_AC This is respawn... You think they’ll include a ‘Someone flew here recently’ tracker and quip? xD.
The landing is already in place tho. Also, if you want ppl from above, you need to look up... I don’t think if you scan ahead that you’ll catch Valk if the height in trailer is to be believed... it was higher than the 3rd story buildings in WE and if you scan just in front, sometimes you don’t get those people. - 4 years ago
So will we hear any more complaints about 3rd partying after a 2 team only mode is introduced?
Probably.
I’m personally not interested as I play this game for the Battle Royale but I think it was good adding 3v3

Here is my breakdown of things I noticed - pretty exciting stuff!
We have never seen Arenas before, so I will be noting stuff based on what I see. Maybe it may be the case that some hop-ups are not available in the Arena mode but tare available in the Battle Royal. I don't know.
First of all, the volt seems to make a slightly different sound. Maybe a new hop-up? Kinda reminds me of the disruptor rounds but colours do not match.
There are new emotes! Later on, they are more clearly for the winning screen, but the animations here of Gibby and Wattson are also new. (Crypto is just a finisher)
The G7 scout also makes a completely different sound.
I'm not a player that knows every skin in the game, but this one seems new
I've tried to compare the jump-than-walk time of Loba here, but it is too difficult to tell wether the slow down animations are reduced or removed.
We can reasonably suspect that Ash will be the announcer. I'm just wondering if they will (eventually) let us choose factions that would display here. Just as in titanfall at the start of a match.
New Wraith skin, of course 😛
New rampart skin
Okey couple of things here. You can buy skills, consumables, weapons, and weapon upgrades here. The first screenshot is the one of the video, the second one from the website. The web one seems to be more up-to-date since the weapons have been sorted on price and the hologram looks better. Also, the video one contains an ultimate accelerant, which was removed in the web one. Instead, the golden backpack has been added. Please Lifelines, buy that. P2020 and Mozambique are free, so you'll always have two weapons in a fight no matter what you buy.
In the video one it seems like we have to buy the passive as well, but this is rectified in the blog post. Passives are free.
The amount of money you get depends on the number of kills you make (every kill is 25 credits), the number of crafting canisters you picked up, and the bonus from the round. There is no win bonus in here. They may have decided not to have a win bonus to reduce the chance of a lobside match (once you win, you have a higher chance to win again).
The two screenshots are from two different rounds and both show a different tier of armor (although in a illogical order). However, the blog does not describe the armor to be upgradable, so I think we will have non-evo armors here.
The prowler is a SMG, but is not in the SMG list. That makes me expect the prowler to remain a care package weapon. Furthermore, the peacekeeper is on the list. So the peacekeeper is now ground loot again! I've checked the other weapons but there is no one missing. So we do not know yet which one will replace the peacekeeper.
Currently, we have 6 weapon categories in the game, but we see a new one here: Marksman! That is for the Bocek bow. And if I may be so free to make a guess: I think the category will not just be the Bocek bow, but they will add the G7 scout (and/or the 30-30 repeater) in there as well.
They buffed the Mozambique from 4 to 6 shots!
But they removed the hammer point hop-up.
There seem to be no deadboxes in Arena mode. So what does this mean for shield swapping? Are we relying on batteries and finishers now? Interesting.
Durability legends may be very useful in the arena. They can bring in supplies that you otherwise would need to buy.
More end-of round emotes for the winning team:
Those are like Titan batteries in the walls. Also, even though the teams can go through the portals and start fighting, this seem to be a one-way go. No last member can be annoying and stay going back and forth. (The zone is still there as well). And, both teams are separated by a pit it seems here.
The party interact button on Mirage Voyage is removed.
The L-star is also making a completely different sound, and the bursts are coming out at a slower pace.
Don't be confused (like I was) by the front end of the alternator, that is how the barrel stabilizers look like from the side.
This may be Valkyries victory pose, but could also be part of a banner pose.
Last week we were questioning whether Valkyrie had some sort of a target lock system, but it seems that you can aim the rockets with markers. Just wondering why Gibby and Bangalore do not have this...
Valkyries ultimate seems to fuel up the jump packs from the teammates. They cannot move then however and it seems to be a redeploy functionality. Just as with the balloons but - by the look of it - with the height of the geisers.
We see a part of the inspect animation of the Bocek bow
So just something to think about. Will we get a hop-up in the game that would be specific to 1 single weapon? The last time that happened they removed it from the game and made it a toggle (for the triple take, that is). Maybe they will have it function differently for the L-star and the G7? Not sure here.
The text from the video is more important though: the bow will have 2 hop-up slots. So you can combine the shattercaps with the fast firing one.
This devotion skin is new. Seems to be an evolution one, so we can expect this skin to be the lvl 100 (or 110) BP skin!
This is, of course, a finisher of Valkyrie
This is going to look amazing with the glow in the dark skins.
Most of the map changes seems to be on the Bonsay plaza side of the of the map. More interestingly, is that a new ship is landed (complete right side), which replaces the weird area that was there before.
And that is it! Thoughts?
- 4 years ago@DYSPROssium It’s too detailed. Dial it back. You’re making the rest of us look bad you cybersecurity overachiever! xD
Only thing is that I heard 75 per kill not 25... and also
YEY MORE BULLETS IN MOZAMBIQUE! @MandatoryIDtag ^.^ - DYSPROssium4 years agoHero (Retired)
Hahahaah sorry sorry :P @Koochi-Q
They jump put so many details into these trailers that I love going through it frame by frame and see what I can find!
- DYSPROssium4 years agoHero (Retired)
Something that I did look into, but didn't quite recognize, is that the CAR from Titanfall is in the game.
Credit to u/Neoministein
- 4 years ago@DYSPROssium I totally get that. I write alot about most mundane stuff just so that I don’t have to go too detailed on these things xD. Else you’d be reading a thesis amount of scripture.
- 4 years ago@DYSPROssium Could be season 10's weapon?
- 4 years ago
@DYSPROssium
That's a Volt, not CAR.Oh, I see it now in the middle left
- E9ine_AC4 years agoHero+
@BaldWraithSimplook at bottom left hand corner. Its not a gun in apex yet i dont think when looking at the stock. The volt has 1 triangle in the stock where the weapon in the blueprint there has 1 and a square and half moon stock.
- DYSPROssium4 years agoHero (Retired)
@ArchAngeL-PCX This is not the first time they tease the CAR. They have also teased the EMP rocket launcher of Titanfall (in the S4 trailer below the desk of Revenant at the start). It may be that they will add those guns later on, but I wouldn't bet on S10. They have waited already 5 seasons now since the first teases so really no telling when.
- DYSPROssium4 years agoHero (Retired)
@E9ine_AC is right here, @BaldWraithSimp
The left bottom gun is a new one! The volt is shown in the middle btw, for comparison's sake 🙂
- 4 years ago@DYSPROssium I just read your review. Great detail and a lot I missed for sure. A couple of points:
- I think the Bow will replace Triple Take. Talk is TT will go to the care package, and that Bow hop up will give it a shotgun like feel that TT tends to have.
- Valkyrie's missiles are a lot like Pharah's ult from Overwatch and of course Northstar's Core power from TitanFall 2. In both cases, they are aimed but it's like aiming an area effect. The missiles won't all precisely hit the same spot, but it is much more focused than Bangalore or Gibraltar. The fact it's a tactical and not an ultimate also means Valkyrie can use these a lot more often than Pharah or Northstar. - DYSPROssium4 years agoHero (Retired)
I couldn't quite fit the new hop-ups with the L-star or G7, but the triple take indeed makes more sense. @ArchAngeL-PCX
Still wondering why the L-star looks so differently though, and why the sound of those guns are so altered in the trailer.
- DYSPROssium4 years agoHero (Retired)
Some content creators were able to playtest the new updates! Something I wanted to share was this one:
We are getting emotes
So it seems that they are not just for the victory screen, but can be used in the game as well.
