We need to remove human players from Bot Royale. It defeats the whole purpose. As a new person to apex I was enjoying the game until you guys added human players to bot Royale . Let the sweaty ranked players play regular or continue on ranked. Leave the bots only mode. Please EA
[SU Edit: Updated thread title]
Long story short, Day one Apex player...I came back to Apex because Bot Royale came out (2024). I was LOVING it because I didn't have to deal with sweats / stacks / cheaters etc. Bots only. Amazing!
Now fast forward to April 2026....Bot Royale "Evolved"....meaning there are sweaty stacks every match while my random teammates are....random....
I don't understand why Respawn decided on this EBMM. It's the worst. It's why they lost a lot of their player base. Why they don't have no new player base.
To the point, this game caters to the 1% because they know it guarantees the revenue they want. Yet they can get potential additional revenue from the other 99% of casual player base.
That's just the way it is with these games though...
I completely agree with your point. It's heartbreaking to see how Respawn traded that 'Amazing' experience from 2024 for the current EBMM mess, just to cater to a small minority while overlooking the vast majority of us who are actually ready to support the game.
I’m currently discussing this exact issue with a few others who feel the same way. We’re specifically talking about how this 'Evolved' Bot Royale is driving away newcomers and casual players—like my friends 'B' and 'C'—who just want a safe space to enjoy the gunplay and collect skins after work.
If you have some time or if it's convenient, I’d love for you to drop by my thread and share your perspective there as well. We are all saying the same thing, and I believe our voices are stronger if we stand together.
Dude. Change bot Royale back to bots only. No need for sweaty 3 stacks on this mode. Make them fight each other. Let us have fun.
Make them have to go against each other. Or increase difficulty depending on how well they performed. They ruin everyone's fun.
Please EA. Human players should not be in this mode . The whole point is to relax and chill while making progress. Not go against the sweatiest most unemployed people in the world each game. Please get rid of them. Let us have just one mode without human players. Let the sweats destroy each other over and over in ranked/Casuals. Let us have bot Royale.
Why does bot royal have humans. it literally defeats the whole purpose of it. I just wanna chill and kill not have sweats kill me. It’s actually so stupid
I definitely agree
WigglesTheWorms Adding real human teams to Bot Royal really did kill the mode and its whole purpose of being a "Bot" Royal.
Welcome to Smurf Legends, urr... i mean Apex Legends.
Yeah, no it's absolutely a joke. Like it's just pubs but no progression LMAO like let the sweats keep their ranked and regular modes. Let us have bot Royale. Like EA come on bro. Who hurt them as a child.
