I am curious about others opinion/For me, while I do appreciate it, I think it is just slapped together, I doesn't feel like a gun game.Every gun game what I played in different FPS games where always a solo mode, I don't understand why I need to be in a team.Completely gives me the impression that they grabbed control mode shrinked the map and just added a gun rotation after each kill, it feels more like a mini royale then a gun game.This is completely relevant, but people don't do anything else just roof camp and for me the game is not enjoyable because it's a hot mess, people sniping from Narnia, getting shot in the back as soon as you kill someoneAnyway what are your thoughts?

I suspect that people who love hot dropping will love this mode. It's like hot dropping, but with the advantage of always having a weapon in your hand.I actually love it, outside of the horrific matchmaking. It would be awesome if I didn't have to pit my sub-0.4 K/D against TTVs with 10,000 apex kills every match.As it stands currently, it's too stressful to enjoy more than a few matches per night. One guy on my team straight out told me, "you don't belong in this group, bro," and I told him "I completely agree with you." As if I want to be playing against enemies who are sniping people using the P2020 from the top of the cliff.It's crazy how many people are using tap strafing around every corner, vehicle and gunfight, too. I hate tap strafing with a passion. /tapstrafingrant

@Renegade_Prime86 I'm enjoying it a lot. And my friends that enjoyed cods old gun game seem to enjoy it.What I am sick of is people saying its different than other gun games. Yes it is! It's apex version! You want the others maybe go play them if they are so much better? They clearly are not if you are playing the Apex one.

I put in a few more hours tonight and finished off some 10K dmg challenges. I was also able to get my first game-winning kill. I love this game mode! It seems much freer of very annoying issues than Control did, and it feels much better as a warmup as well. A mode with scoring based around kills rather than control points feels much more "Apex." It is by far my favorite non-BR LTM so far for sure.

Don't like it at all, really.3rd party central, do 90% of the work for team mate (or enemy) to steal the kill, the fact that Legends and their abilities are built for BR is even more apparent in this mode than in Arenas.I did 5 matches the first day to try it, have not touched the mode since. Back to pubs BR for what little event tickets I can manage with minimal engagement/ratting solo.

@CCbathwater You got melee killed. It can happen on any level.

My favorite is when there's a team on a roof that's just free sniping everyone, and your team is the only one trying to attack them, and the other two teams kill you instead of trying to take down the squad that is in the lead 18-5-7-7. Lol. It hurts the most when you're just about to kill one the members of the lead squad and you get shot in the back by 3 people from other teams. Classic.

@LaughingSharko Yeah, 3rd parties is actually a giant problem in this mode. It’s not even when they attack me that I have a problem with, it’s when they attack the pathfinder that I put down to 1 hp.

Another problem that gets really boring fast. How everyone is playing Pathy, Horizon, Octane, Valk, and the entire roster of the 2nd Crutch Brigade. At this point in time I don't really respect Apex players, other than Lifeline, Wattson, and Crypto mains. The rest can get a big bag of T's.

@CCbathwaterWith the way the maps are those make the most sense. I'd call the other legends, other than defensive, dumb picks myself. But I can see them being useful if you normally use them.

Apparently it needs +592 players in queue before it can start a game. And it still only loaded in 11.

Yeah, should be solo or just 2 larger teams. Anyway, I got my 10 wins badge, so I'm done with this mode. Can't wait for Control or Shadow Royale. At least those are fun to play, whether you win or not.

I hear the "one team is halfway to victory" pop off and I'm like "how?". I'm out here killing everyone I see. Then go to this screen and yeah, okay, time to leave. Brilliant sbmm! Only one team literally has three contributing members.

I hate that it forces you to use certain Optics. 2x HCog Bruiser is disgusting.

@star99er That’s the point of gun run, it forces you to expand your horizons, play with new guns, in new ways. Gun run is a learning opportunity for those who wish to play.

@star99er A valid complaint, shred by a friend who also hates the Bruiser. But it's for balance reasons, to keep everyone on a precise level equipment wise. Just imagine how much easier it would be to get kills in a game like this with marksman and sniper rifles if you could remove the sights.
