Forget hackers, forget 'I wont moar content', they quite simply aren't playing the f2p BR gaming model.
The hordes that play Fortnite do so because a) it is free, b) hyped by streamers and other 'influencers' - it is The Latest Thing and cynically their road to fortunes by shilling it continually, c) a constant stream of mindless, banal new content to consume.
If you want to keep up with TLT then you have to do what they do, which Apex hasn't.
Even with a perfect game The Horde only has a couple of minutes attention span, if you don't give them new shiney/bangy bangy flashy flashy they wander off to find the latest hur-de-hur that Youtube/streamers point them at.
Here at best it will be rank 100 and the battle pass and that will probably entertain them for a week or two at most.
I quite literally hold my head in my hands where Fortnite is concerned, it is mindless, childish drivel, yet it attracts hundreds of milllions/billions and a lot of 'adults'.
Not sure how you can all keep defending something that entered an arena where they don't want to to play by it's rules, if they wanted slow development cycles they should have gone retail not f2p where the demand for a new hat is on a daily basis.
The biggest chunk of the player base have got bored and left, those that stayed have been further driven away by hackers, bad optimisation and also - eventually - lack of content.
It has happened in innumerable f2p titles and you can't run them on a tiny hardcore % that will stick around no matter what and no matter how much they wail, gnash their teeth and beat their chests and offer to buy the IP to keep the title alive.
No mate, they play it bcs iits a good game. Bcs someone made it to be period! People play games that makes them wanna play. People play good , well made games for so many years. Bad-made, half-butt games become food for the fishes... Something like the Natural Selection of Gaming if you will, no one keeps playing and playing game that makes him feel bad or puts him in such mood. Its logic
And all this could've been avoided simply by adding SOLO MODE Bcs no matter against how many hackers you are playing you will away relay on yourself and your skills and when you go in-game with the mind-set that everyone is for himself and will give 110% to be the last man standing, if you mess up its on you player you can blame only yourself.. Yeah but when you have only squads the game changes completely bcs you depend on your team and once your team is messed up absolutelly everyone else on the map has an advantage over you and nobody likes that feeling. While in Solo's you know its you against the world and you know you'll never betray yourself and if you see Duo in a Solo Mode or something you know what to do, there's a report button for this job. Not to say people won't even do it cause its easier to spot and prove two people play together in Solo than someone using hack or cheating in some way and players will fear to do it bcs they will get banned. And thats how Respawn/EA dug their own grave by refusing to add solo. And if they EVER ADD SOLO MODE FROM NOW ON THE WHOLE WORLD WILL REMEMBER THEM AS "THE GREATEST LITTLE A** BI***** " to ever walk on this earth.
