Re: Level 100 should only be in Elite mode

@DaAceXD What exactly is your argument? if its so easy why do you have a problem? clearly you’re not level 100 and feel like that’s unfair towards you theres a reason its called “ Elite” and dont use the typical “ Oh you play everyday in your mums basement” blah blah blah the game has been out for approximately 7-8 months if your new you shouldn’t be able to just jump into rank matches putting others at disadvantage on your team, had a level 19 pleb yesterday pinging stupid things like “ Arc star here” “ oh theres a helmet here guyz” .... I said there was an enemy in a direction he asked where so i pinged, guess what the newb did??? guess! oh he started shooting at the spot i pinged ... i left immediately

    @SethCurry Level 100 doesn’t equate to skill is what you don’t seem to understand, imo it’s a timely established level, not so much skill based.
    I’m a level 110, and I still get outranked in damage and kills by lower leveled teammates, so how would justify them not being granted Elite queue status?

    @Gabrielmojo26 Your Argument is farcical because the game is heavily based on RNG so skills has been diminished unless you run into someone using the same weapon with same attachments and same gear, which is rare and then skill factor can be debated, for pc players this will keep all the hackers out of ranked so thats a win , And didn’t i see a post last week people were complaining about being put up against “sweats/try hards with 4k kills” and it was unfair for them this will make it so all the new people can play against players who aren't “ Try hards” Why do you have a problem with this? Is it because you cant compete with people who have the same in game experience as you?

    @SethCurryYou’re reverting to insults and insinuations, which renders your opinion pointless to me as of late.
    You’re not debating, you’re arguing wanting to be solely right, have fun with that!

    P.S. Toronto takes it!

    7-8 months? You have a strange sense of time, friend. This game came out Feb. 4th, which means that it's been out barely over 4 months. 

    People like you that think they are better than everyone are no better than your so called "newbs".

    I play with a guy who has a very busy life so he is in the 80’s still but he does have 3k dmg badge and 20 kill badge so there are plenty of people under level 100 that would make it look like you should not even be allowed to play

    @neillkorey Thats why i think "Elite Que" is a bit missleading. Anyone that stays alive until top 5 in normal (easy task). gets into Elite, and there is nothing elite about Elite Que. it's just a different way of playing the game, because people are carefull in there. They have more to lose.

    I for one like the difference. It's two different playstyles. Normal queue is more chill, bigger fights and actually more fun now. While Elite queue is a tad more serious, people avoid contact and actually think more about engages. (also most cheaters lurk in elite)

    A solution to play with, and meet people around your skill level is ranked games.

    But before they introduce real ranked games they need to tackle the problem with cheaters once and for all.
  • @Balzano They need to change the requirement to enter Elite queue. Something like "minimum 20 or 30% winrate in last 10 games" should be a good start.

    @d3adc3II We can all agree that they need to change something, not just call it "Elite Queue". 🙂

    The problem is what to do, without excluding a major part of the playerbase. I'd say minimum lvl 50 so that the player have some experience in the game. Matchmaking with the introduction of ranked.

    The problem with cheaters still percist though. In most cases (if you're not shroud) you will get melted by the cheaters and have them ruin your winrate. So as long as they don't find a good solution against the hackers it doesn't matter what they do. Because the cheaters will ruin it anyways. ☹️
  • Most people including me dont even play for win :D get 10 kill game and doenst matter anymore bcose game become boring after first circle bcose all camping and most of the server is dead

    Yeah.. hopefully respawn doesn't start pumping out content like crazy yet... I played for a couple hours today to finish up the event achievements. I end up spending more time in fights running an aimbot experiment, where I'll crouch behind cover when I know an enemy didn't have sight of me. I won't make a peep and players just either light my cover up or go directly over to where I am and fire. When your cover is constantly sprayed and  people are trying to sneak up to you to try and hipfire, that's when you know cheating is rampant.

    I can say in these couple hours, I had probably two or three matches that felt fair. Nice teams and clean fights that I want to remember. Quality of life things like sound and exploit fixes were huge improvements- but I remember when I was grinding Apex a lot... a bot's only weakness is their blind spot. Basically... improvements like sound help them as much or more than regular players without the advantages no less. So that sucks too, but again... would just like to see Apex again where everyone is on the same playing field.

    Imo, the preconceived notion of what is “Elite” is misconstrued with team effort.

    Some comments reflect nothing but selfishness, it’s a team based goal, so whether teammates piggy back ride or not, that’s just the nature of what is considered “Elite” teams finishing top 5. There’s just nothing you can do about it unless you have a full squad without any randoms.

    If the Elite Queue was solely based off damage count, I personally think that would be way more rewarding.
