Reminiscing the OG days of Apex
Took a little break from Apex, a month, maybe more, finally came back last weekend, and oddly enough, I’m still not feeling it. The MM, that’s what I’m calling it now cause I don’t know if it’s SB, ...

@dSKyNafinchin I have a heavy grip, especially in CQC scenarios, and would always accidently punch mid gun fight. I would mod my controllers permanently by removing that stick click inside the controller lol, no need for that now, which is great!
When looking up online, I was unable to find any info as to unassigning actions to the stick clicks, I would have bought one sooner if I had known this was possible.
You guys are talking paddles (plural) yet I'm currently only using one LMAO, baby steps!

For those looking for a better hand layout on non paddle controllers, I highly recommend using extesyy’s hand positioning, it’s a bit of an adjustment, but it makes it so you can have your hands on all the buttons all the time, instead of classic hand positioning. Using the different positioning can really help, I would highly recommend it, also you might want to watch one of his videos on yt or Ttv to get a better understanding if it.

- @BigMacAttack8u I see lots doing it but why would I do that when I can just put button where my fingers naturally go.
Season 4 was great, Season 5 pretty good. I think it's when Horizon showed up that things started going downhill, but Olympus was great so it was hard to tell. People used to hate Olympus, I remember that, and initial Horizon was broke until she got nerfed.
Seer sucked. I think that was the end, but it took Valkyrie, who was OP for so long, to really lock in. Again, hard to tell because she's fun to play, but she was super OP. It wasn't just that, though, it was that Respawn simply started ignoring all the damage they were doing by adding scan meta and vertical meta. You don't add Seer, and Valkyrie, and Ash, without buffing certain defense characters. It's really terrible, imo, because I believe there were things that could have been done to keep it going.
Storm Point is, and was hated. I still like that map. But it shows me, too, what people were asking to see...basically a really small level where people could Octane, and Path and Valkyrie their way to twitch fun. Nobody likes using strategy, it seems, or map movement, or picking fights. A 'good' game is one where you don't really think at all, just hold down the forward move and fire button :P.
I'm not super worried, the Ranked thing was the straw that did it. I've relegated Apex to not worth being that serious about, and I will have my fun regardless of how much pro input keeps trying to ruin it. Stopped watching streaming videos, and other things to improve play, I'm now just messing around.
It used to be pretty great, though, I agree. I remember when I looked forward to what was coming next.

Thing is, that's what finally got me to play a season regular. Valk seems OP because she is the ONLY character that acts even 50% like a Titanfall2 Pilot in movement. https://twitter.com/Vxin___/status/1470122526760226818?t=QITVZxpkZTcB6URYzAGK8Q&s=19
Or you could just hold the controller like vxin.
- @hayhor I had recommended it for the people that didn’t have paddles, and didn’t want to fork some over just to hit all the buttons. If you have paddles already I would recommend against this, as then you wouldn’t be using the paddles you bought 🤣
