Re: Apex Legends: "Escape" Gameplay Trailer discussion

Just finished reading the blog post and got to the part about the wildlife. This is the most "game changing" and controversial aspect of the map either for good or for worse. On the other hand, based from the vlog, they're not as bothersome as expected since you have to really approach Prowlers for them to attack and to destroy some spider eggs for it to hatch.

Other stuff they added

- The wildlife will drop gun attachments and ammo

- The wildlife can't get out of their nests.

- They're not infinitely spawning unlike the early builds of the map (leaks).

- Goliaths seem to be removed as well. If you guys didn't know (those who didn't want spoilers), there should have been Goliaths (that monster that BH killed in the Old Ways trailer) in the map where you need to damage it for around 200-300 damage to kill and it can 2 punch down you. Glad they decided to remove them.

You can farm the wildlife to upgrade your evo shield but they only said that only a portion of the damage will go into your evo shield.

    @Cheese9Man This info makes me feel better about the expanded wildlife. I'll reserve final judgement for after the new season launches, and I get to see how it actually plays. I'm all for the Goliath being removed. As an LTM, it could be pretty fun, but I feel like they would have too much health for BR. I'm not worried about Prowlers/Spiders though, because if I die to one of those jokers, I deserve it, Lmao

    For the evo shield damage, I hope no more than 1/4 of the damage counts toward shields. Not sure how I feel about the damage counting at all, but hopefully it's no more than that

    @Cheese9Man "The wildlife will drop gun attachments"

    Noice, good thing they ain't nerfing Lifeline any further. Are the NPCs also limited by a "guaranteed upgrade" or can they upgrade you white-to-purple?

    @ZigoSid It’s Gibby.

    @CCbathwater LL needs some love on the patch notes. Lol. I’m not sure if the attachments are guaranteed upgrades though. I can say that the ammo they drop is based on your gun just like when you kill someone in the Winter Express LTM. xD

  • I hope my man Fusey is left alone as he's (finally) in a really good place right now.

    The only change I'd make is that he can open explosive holds with the knucklecluster. ATM the moment he's at a slight disadvantage as he's the only legend that cannot use the explosive hold exploit properly (which may or may not exist ... ahem). Either that or Respawn should fix the exploit.
