Re: What is it that Octane players don't understand?

@Nandor78 Don't know, but I had one Octane drop solo, he killed 5 people where he dropped to.. Teammate and I dropped to the place near Cryptos sat dish. Teammate who dropped with me gets knocked I proceed to knock 2 of the people who dropped him and almost have thee third eliminated.. He then DC's.

Octane flies to swamps, I meet up with him. We proceed to win thee match he posted 3200 damage and I posted 2400. I thought for sure the Octane would be a loot goblin and just a bad teammate, he actually was a really good teammate minus the solo drop. Never heard a word from him until we win the match and I get a GG.

    That scenario is not very common with the Octanes I talk about. I just finished a game where both I and the other squadmate were yelling at Octane to stop and stay in the team. But no, he just ran off, jumped into 2 squads, and died. 

    It's the same over and over with Octanse, in 8 out of 10 games....

    What is it that octane players don't understand you ask?

    Easy answer, they don't understand battle royal games.

    @MandatoryIDtag It's not just Octane mains though and not all octane mains are bad. I love a good octane on my team as it works great with Bangalore. I can ult people and use the jump pad to push aggressively when they are stunned.

    @DarthValtrex  Yeah but that's a given lol, we're talking about the specific breed of apex player here that the OP is complaning about, which is why I felt no need to play devils advocate. 😛

    You are right, but it's very common that Octane players do these things. I'd say that it's hands down the most used character for mindless, over-aggressive / kamikaze players.

    @Nandor78 “ I'd say that it's hands down the most used character for mindless, over-aggressive / kamikaze players.” Well, thats what taking lots of drugs may do to you so the character plays like that.

    If the whole squad does full rush together, it’s not full rush but a fun jog. We can’t have that.

    He’s not as fast, cause he can’t handle the fastness!! faster, faster, faster!

    @MandatoryIDtag troll-9001 so that Vegeta can scream his iconic quote! I was bored and saw someone new... so I went for it. Perfectly done if I do say so myself xD

    Ive been playing Octane past few days and i rush every single fight. My team can either follow me in or they can sit back and watch the show. I dont got time for passive game-play. I play for the action and pushing fights as octane is a good way to get my experience i ache for. Passive players make my life suck. Slow players make my life suck. Apex is all about being on the move.
