Re: The Changes Of Ranked Is Ruining Public Matches.

I think he's alluding to a few things:

- Pubs is used as 'warm up' by high tier players - basically stomping on those of us who play little, and play casually (some of us don't have days on end to play)

- With the changes to ranked, a lot aren't bothering with it - so their jumping in and pub stomping instead

- The high tier players who get teamed with lower level players (because heaven forbid teams are evened out a bit), will drop hot, die, and leave you stuck HAVING to rat (ever try to go 1v3 with a pred team? Not fun)

Basically, the entire game at this point, is being aimed at pros, streamers, etc... the casual players have been forgotten, and no one cares - we're told to suck it up and 'just play better'.

A) I'm sorry, I didn't mean to confuse anyone.

With Respawn changing Ranked to where it's better to camp then to risk fighting at the start of the 1st round, public games have seen an influx of 3 stack predators. Also, I'm only talking about PC lobbies. I totally understand that public games were used for warming up, but now public games are massively different. Some of the solo queue streamers are even talking about it.

What I think happened is no one took into account how many people actually only play public games.

B) The second part (game data and/ or changes).

EA and/ or Respawn only use high level influencers and/ or EA game changers data to add and/ or change in Apex Legends (they don't use anyone that's an Activision partner). EA Game Changers that are friends with the heads of either EA and/ or Respawn get to send in their own opinions on what they would like changed in Apex Legends.

Currently, Answers.EA (this site), Twitter, YouTube and/ or reddit opinions and/ or discussion are not taken into consideration for upcoming changes into Apex Legends.

Basically what I'm saying is that the majority of people that fund Apex Legends success are not listened to. It's true everyone should have an opinion, but Respawn doesn't do that. It listens to high end influencers and/ or people that make money from Apex Legends, not the people that fund it.

Respawn wants to make Apex Legends into something like Valorant, but Valorant became successful because it doesn't offer support for aim assist while also having amazing servers.

If I made it more confusing let me know, I'll try and change it.

With these changes to Ranked, I've seen a drastic change towards public games and its players, and I've actually witnessed players saying they're going to quit because of it. I've heard discussions that some don't have the time to just sit around camping rings and/ or even care for ranked play. All they care about is trying to do cool things.

Apex Legends in my mind became popular because of interesting kills and/ or shots, not because someone wasted 10 mins crouching.

I get there are people that want to win, but there are also those who just want to have fun. This update to Ranked didn't think about the majority of people in Apex Legends.

Respawn still after 3 years doesn't get this. Some just want to have fun, and don't care about competition. In my mind, Apex Legends is not a true competitive title, so I would think Respawn would at least give back, but it hasn't happened.

I honestly think Ranked needs a non-ranked mode to encourage team play so Public games can be a place for learning basic skills and/ or learning.
