Criers: cry more anyway

  • @IDTAKEN192000the only thing people were asking for was for the R99 to take a dirtnap because it was a laser beam weapon that anybody with 2 fragments of a functioning braincell could see wasn't fitting in.

    Not to mention anybody crying about 3rd parties always got told that 3rd partying is part of any game like this.
    Happens here, happens in EFT, happens in Hunt: Showdown, happens in PUBG, etc, etc. People might not like it but it isn't a uniquely exclusive strategy that only occurs in Apex.

    Respawn went above and beyond on their own accord and face-planted hardcore. They decreased TTK but made no other adjustments to balance it.

    Lmfao, if they listened to you, assuming your complaints were justified, you all would still cry. It will never end because it's impossiblethat you hist got beat. Those damn devs are out to get you.

    The TTK can be frustrating. However the game could be equally frustrating before these changes due to the vast difference in effectiveness between weapons...that gap has lessened now which is a positive.

    My only real point of concern at the moment is the hemlok/prowlers damage output per burst.

    Early game you can literally one burst players with the hemlok, basically the same with the prowler also. Problem is if you nerf these weapons, you then have to nerf the volt. Then people will complain about other weapons and they'll get nerfed.

    Thus we end up back at square one with a seasons wait for what would essentially be a patch of no consequence.

    There really is no simple solution to keep everyone happy.

    @MandatoryIDtagI mean surely it was in a better state before all this though ? There’s always gonna be complaining about something, but 90% of last seasons complaints were literally just 1. Terrible SBMM 2. Cheaters on pc

    Edit : (and me complaining about sound issues that still haven’t been fixed lmao)

    @MandatoryIDtag If it ain't broke, don't fix it.. but by trying to fix something that wasn't broke they have now broken it so remove the fix to fix the problem.

    Or something like that. :P

    @MandatoryIDtag What was?

    I thought previous ttk was ok and better to handle the r99, volt, devo than current. Also perm evo i have no complaints about.

    @apostolateofDOOM  Not specifically the TTK admittedly, but the games a mess lol.

    I just found the "if it ain't broke don't fix it" rhetoric amusing thats all. 😛

    @MandatoryIDtag I find that personally, the new TTK (this is mostly nullified in endgame, as everyone has remotely close to 200hp) removes a layer of fun and adrenaline that I would get during matches, fights in specific. Its tough, the TTK was unique to Apex and I feel made Apex... Apex.

    @TheBrimsonBhin You know whats funniest thing here? I get feeling that they hit detection too, so it decreases ttk even more!
