    @Systemexe20Agreed. The forum is a MUCH better place than reddit or twitter imo

    Unfortunately, i don’t think the Director of comms even knows an Apex forum exists.

    @Gabrielmojo26Are there devs on AHQ forums of other games? I think this is a place exclusively handled by EA through community managers. I'm also supposing devs are not allowed to post here officially, to avoid conflicts.

    @DoYaSeeMe if there are devs on other AHQ forums, why would devs officially not be allowed to post here? If its just aoiding conflicts from the community then that seems a bit lame.

    Are there no conflicts on other AHQ forums?

    Are conflicts there not managed properly by cm's?

    So why not trust the cm's here here?

    Or given what we've seen of devs posting elsewhere, have the devs been banned from here for that reason, and not the community behaviour here. If so EA considers them unprofessional.

    @OldTreeCreeper I'm not speaking of the usual conflicts between devs and community. There can be internal policy issues, conflicts of interests, etc..

    In our studio, devs are strongly discouraged to discuss with the community directly. We do all that solely through community managers.

    @DoYaSeeMe I had better take off my tin hat that I have wrapped in aluminium foil so 😃 despite the apex  devs communicating directly with the apex community on other social media.

    I think he’s joining the studio with the other ex-Respawn devs. He was great as the director of comms in general (except for that one incident) and I wish him goodluck in the new chapter of his career. Hope the new director of commes is calm and collected and really gives out details on what’s going on in this live-service game. 

    PS I didn’t know where to put this and I didn’t want to make a thread so I just placed it here. lol.

    And to think he just got done putting two years worth of work into the map we will start playing next Tuesday.

    Thank you Mr. Rigney for all of your hard work @EA_Kent please pass along our best wishes to him since we cannot directly communicate that ourselves. That is if you can.

    @Asmodeus566He has nothing to do with the map, or design, or programing, or coding.....he was a communications guy, and did a poor job at it.

    my mistake I am only human and not Pathy. 

    I saw this and got him confused with the lead designer Mr. Reece.

    @Asmodeus566 Ryan Reece is the GOAT of map design with WE. Love every single thing about that map except for the dead POIs like Ramparts town take over and Lava city. LOL.

    In general, the fresh faces like John Larson/Jaybiebs who replaced DZK is a good thing for this game. We need fresh ideas for this game not to become dull overtime.

    Agreed.

    And as far as maps go and this is my own opinion WE>KC>OLY. With first impressions and seeing some Season 11 gameplay already, I think that the new map will be a pretty good blend of the three others.
