Quick takes and thoughts after playing the new season
This may sound crazy but I still don’t see as many people play Ballistic even after all buffs. I could pick him in all the matches I have played recently. Perhaps that will change in the future when people see his true potential. Also he isn’t as op as the support meta legends back in time.
TTK doesn’t feel changed at all. I still have to deal a lot of damage to knock someone down.
I still mainly face two problems:
The first one had to do with the teammates I’m playing with vs the enemy teammates. I find myself often get outnumbered and fight alone and die not because of my skills but because I get shot at by two or even three players. And this happens quite often. Too often.. And I think it has something to do with the matchmaking. Also I think that a system that shows if the player is a good teammate or not (like if someone doesn’t help his teammates or dc after getting knocked) is important as that would generally improve the experience.
The second one, Which was and still is always an issue with apex, Is third parties. I don’t mean that third parties shouldn’t exist but I mean they happen TOO OFTEN. And by too often I mean almost always after hardly killing a whole squad. It’s very exhausting. Having to kill a squad after another in one game otherwise it’s game over. Now honestly I don’t know exactly what should be done in this field but I think they should implement some mechanics that either slow fights or give you temporary immunity after killing a squad so it gives you a window of opportunity to reposition and reset (don’t ask me how). Other than that I think the game is fun but it could be a lot better.
