(Request) Realism

Question

Hi everyone,&nbsp;I wonder if we will have an update that will bring more realism into the game.I still don't know how legends get to fight one another, like mirage can meet another mirage.also, where they come from after they are called using a respawn bacon ? they disappear after leaving their equipment then once you have a banner they come in full shape from somewhere else.also, why the equipment don't show on the legend? how they fold into small space and why red mid kit and battery is very large, how a tower and beacon can be carried and not called to be dropped from above like when used, using remote control.how a headshot can be taken with a helmet and the helmet and shield is invisible ? and how health can be impacted when the shield is penetrated and still be recovered with med kit after bullet hit the body?where legend boxes come from and how legends dissolve&nbsp;and where EVO comes from and how it gives abilities that last long?it the dropship big enough for all of them? and who is watching them all? fans? or spectators?I suggest the tower and beacon appear as a tiny remote unit, and the helmet becomes apparent, and legends fighting each other's can be explained by the technologies that the apex legends battle is governed by, and that the shields around the legends can appear as an aura when they are chargethe story does not quite say it all when read and I wish to know how all this happen in a new update that could make the perceived quality of this story much better

Part of it, is that its a game, (and I like to pretend that the same legends are just different people, who all happen to have the same abilities). However, if you are looking for a more lore-accurate explanation, look no further than legends such as Wraith and Alter.Wraith:

She came from a different reality than the one that the games we play takes place in.Apex Legends | Stories from the Outlands - "Voidwalker"

Alter:

She can travel across different realities at will, (where she had seen other versions of the legends).Alter | Based on a True Story

Furthermore:

During Apex's Halloween events, there were two Revenants, (where the second Revenant wasn't from our reality), and also Revenant and Ash are both simulacrums, (where as long as their human head still remains intact, there can be an infinite number of them in the world).Apex Legends Season 5 - Fortune's Favor Launch TrailerApex Legends | Kill Code Part 4

I'm not quite sure about this one, but if I had to guess, the legends are most likely clones, (which can also explain the first question), to where on death, the clone just dissolves and then when you grab their banner and respawn them,&nbsp; a new clone is printed and sent in via a dropship, (which can explain why it takes time to respawn them, and how Crypto can make the process instant by using his drone).Note: The cloning idea does conflicts with Apex's first trailer, where Wraith was with Mirage and Pathfinder, when an enemy team had tossed in a grenade into the building they were in, (killing Mirage and Pathfinder), while Wraith phased away via her portal, (which resulted in Wraith going back into the building after killing the enemy team, and then removing the respawn banner card from Mirage's wrist, which this scene shows that there are no deathboxes to recover the banner card from).

also, why the equipment don't show on the legend? how they fold into small space and why red mid kit and battery is very large, how a tower and beacon can be carried and not called to be dropped from above like when used, using remote control.

The best answer I can think of would be that if Respawn had made these items appear on the legends, (regardless of the legend's outfit and hairstyles as well), it be rather difficult, and the more you carry, the more of a visual clutter it would be.Furthermore, with the kind of things that are possible within the game's universe, (such as phasing into other realities as Wraith/Alter, (and maybe even Ash), jumping to a bat as Vantage, as well as using a heal-all medical drone, (regardless of the damage done to the one being healed), via Lifeline's D.O.C), its possible that there is technology that can compress or shrink items down for transport.

Real world helmets can also take shots, (often times causing the bullets to bounce right off the helmet), although with heavier bullets, (such as ones used in snipers), those can go through helmets used in the real world, (at least to my understanding).In the game, I'm assuming the bullets are specially made to make the game more fun for viewers to watch, so the bullets typically don't instantly kill any of the legends.For the helmet being invisible, that can either be future technology, (or its just another visual clutter issue with conflicts involving the legend's hair and headgear). With the armor often being shown as more of an aura, I'd have to go with future technology, (like a forcefield), which would explain why you take can damage after the shield becomes broken.

As for healing the damage from being shot, I'd have to once again assume future technology, (especially since Lifeline's D.O.C drone can heal any wound as well).

where legend boxes come from and how legends dissolve&nbsp;

A very good question and from what I can guess, future technology might be involved where it converts the legends into a deathbox. (This would explain how a legend can dissolve and how a deathbox can appear in their place).&nbsp;
However, I'm sure there's more of a reason behind this besides a game mechanic.

and where EVO comes from and how it gives abilities that last long?

I believe EVO is similar to Octane's stim, (which he got his stim from his family's pharmacy), whereas the EVO empowers those who uses it, (and the legend's abilities most likely have a mechanic that fuses with the EVO to give them new perks).

The larger dropship is big enough to transport every legend to the battlefield.

and who's watching them? Well, that would be the fans, other legends, and even the Apex Syndicate!

This is mainly for visual clarity so you know what loot you are looking at and the shield auras might be a bit disrupting to look at, (which it also would take away part of Vantage's passive if everyone can see each other's shield level).

In the first few years of Apex, there was a lot of lore that explained things such as Pathfinder's past, (like who his creators were), where Wraith came from, why Crypto is on the run, why Loba wanted to kill Revenant, etc.
Now, the lore is a bit harder to read, but its still there in some way or form. (Sometimes the lore is through comics posted on Twitter/X and sometimes its through videos posted on Youtube).
