Re: [LEAKS] Here’s to Apex’s 2023

@hayhor

Far be it from me to deny tdm to anyone who wants to play it, but there are many, many franchises out there that built their reputations on small map, 4v4, unlimited lives, 12 minute timer or 50 kills, whichever comes first. Why not one of those instead? The only compelling argument I can think of in favor of Apex tdm is if one likes team slayer and wants to try it with the Apex weapon sandbox. To me that's taking the one truly abyssmal feature of this game and combining it with the most tired gametype in shooter history. But again, to each his own.

    @reconzeroBut you are ignoring the feel of Apex. The longer TTK, movement, the guns/gunplay, the abilities, the interaction, etc. No other shooter has this. It is what draws most people that play apex to apex. You yourself could play another BR but you play apex. Why?

    I've played Halo, COD, OW2, Rogue Company, SWBF1, SWBF2. Out of those, the only games that kept my attention were Rogue Company TDM and SWBF1 heros vs villians. I like hero shooters that have a certain feel. I love Apex Gun Run and Control. When Gun Run was out I did not play BR for about 6 weeks. I want options so the game grows the player base. If BR is a map I do not like, I want another option, other than just shutting it off.

    @hayhor "The feel of Apex"

    You mean the EOMM feeding casual players to streamers for content?

    Or the sounds never working right so you hear pistol fire from 1km away but not the guy unloading into your squadmate right behind you with an R-99?

    Oh, I know, that feel of Lobby Simulator 2022 because your wanna be streamer teammates hotdropped Fragments!

    You mean those feels? Cause I am done with those feels. The ONLY update I want to see is:

    >> Dropped development of Apex Legends and put team on Titanfall 3 with Single Player campaign and Frontier Defense.

    @Kyldenar Not really sure how to respond. Our experiences are different. You clearly are unhappy with the game but cannot stop. It's a bit unhealthy. Hopefully that can be improved but that starts with you. Good luck!

    @Cro_Pittt No, which is why I wonder where @hayhor get's the idea I can't stop. I rediscovered the fact that games with single player content better respect my time.

    I'm here for what little Titanfall lore drops we get now.

    The first episodes of this season didn't start for what, 70 freaking days from the season start? I had enough tokens for the new character, hated the playstyle, and basically quit. New map is horrible. It's just FASTER 3rd party central.

    The game's matchmaking has very clearly told me _EA doesn't want us filthy casuals playing except as food for their precious streamers_ so I took what they said to heart and quit.
  • I agree with Kyldenar whole heartedly. 

    My take from all this is, its great that Respawn is trying to make changes to Apex NOW, due to the player drop. However, I personally feel there are other things more important for the health of the game at this point over say, wall running, a new Legend and more recolored skins. 

    All that is fine and dandy, but doesn't change much if the MM is not addressed, the hacking and smurfing isn't addressed. I am happy and surprised about legend balancing - (bout time) 

    Although my faith in Respawn to do that right remains gutter style low. 

    I sure hope Bowel Map and Sh*t point are not both in rotation at the same time. That alone might make me uninstall this ever declining sh*t show of what was once the game on top of the food chain. 

  • @Kyldenar Fair enough i guess, although i'd not comment as much as you on this if i did not play the game lol.

    @NickBeam27 This game needed other changes ever since Season 2, but we are still waiting for them. Now it may be too late to recover the playerbase lost.
