Thanks for ruining worlds edge devs. Butchered frag for what? because all the unskilled players who dont know how to use the zip lines kept crying LOL Another rant WE already have bland maps like...
Yeah I'm in total agreement with you. Respawn is massively out of touch with its core audience in my opinion.
If I recall there was a reddit post that depicted most of a server around Fragment which got upvoted. Someone created an article about it and the rest is history. The articles even quoted someone that Fragment needs to be changed (like their opinion was the entire community of Apex Legends), but that person doesn't even play that much Apex Legends.
Respawn just needs a better feedback system. I do not consider this to be just a moment of chance when there was an article created in March 2023 about Fragment, then all of a sudden, it was changed. Respawn employees chat on reddit all the time, it's not that far fetched, I'm sure they saw it. If you want to find the article look for Apex Legends players call for Fragment changes on World's Edge.
I've played the new layout and I'll just simply quit Apex Legends while that map is in rotation. I do not play ranked, nor do I like just looting for 15 mins to have my team do absolutely no damage. Honestly I don't understand why Respawn thinks taking the core enjoyment away will be a good thing. They did the same with Skull Town, but then removed it and now the map is straight up trash. Even tried that in the new rotation and can't stand it.
Apex Legends is so bad now, it's outstanding how this happened. I want 2019 Apex Legends, before of all the bad ideas.
