Stop whining, start exploring and adapting!
It's pathetic, how fast you guys start whining about the new map, instead of accepting the fact, that changes can be a good thing. The dev's already confirmed, to bring back King's Canyon back at so...

@DoYaSeeMe Well the 2 times I looted the train it had practically nothing, so landing on it is extremely risky - if you get competition, you're most likely screwed (unless you know where everyone landed and know where you can jump off).
So far I had best experience in the Dome. Almost never contested and has decent loot more often than not. And it's also quite easy to scout with crypto. It rarely has 3 good armors though.
@Biochemikas I got 4 phoenix kits out of the first 2 crates I opened on that loot train. Funny thing is that I jumped off the train after looting only those 2 crates, as the train was going outside the ring.
- @DoYaSeeMe Well 4 phoenix kits and 2 mozambiques is hardly going to set you up for a fight. Btw, is it me, or are there waaay more mozambiques everywhere? XD
- @Biochemikas I think maybe they are trying to get people to play with the newly buffed guns. I'm seeing more energy weapons, Eva 8, Mozambiques. The one gun I have not had a chance to mess with is the G7 and I'm sort of bummed, I loved the G7 in the old map. So I'm going to be curious to see how the buffed G7 works.
@DarthValtrexThat's just Murphy's law for ya. When I was looking for a charged rifle, I ran over 3+ scouts in every game before i got one. When I wanted to try the new longbow, I found 2 charged rifles...
Although so far my impression that G7 is the most common, charged rifle and longbow rare and curiously longbow even seems rarer than the charged (but really not enough games played (~30) to tell for sure). Why I find it weird is that the charged rifle is clearly the #1 long range weapon now. Although, I've never seen 3 in a single game so far, so arming a full team with them is difficult - so it's definitely rare enough.
From automatic weapons, flatline seems to be the most common. And it's also probably the best midrange weapon atm, too, after the 301 damage nerf.I've not been able to try S3 yet due to work! Honestly its doing my head in lmao.
However i was honestly sick to death of the last map so no matter what faults if any this map has i'll welcome them. Frankly from watching the early access gameplay footage i think it looks freaking awesome...admittedly it seems like a snipers playground but they've taken that into account with weapon additions and changes implemented.
- @Biochemikas The Hemlock got a weird buff/nerf as well.
I haven't use it in season 3 yet but it was probably my favourite gun post patch so I'm interested to see what it's like now.
Has anyone used it yet ? I played about 20 games last night but either didn't find a Hemlock or was too busy trying out other weapons lol. - @Biochemikas I've only seen 2 long bows so far in the game, they do seem to be rarer. I think we'll be able to find them no issue once we learn the map. The old map was sort of like that certain areas tended to have certain guns/loot more frequently.
I have seen a few G7's but I did not have the hop up. I did get to play with the Eva 8 hop up, I think it has potential. Need to do a bit more with it. @xx_Dante2k_xxI've seen a lot of them, but I've also found more flatlines and I just can't take a hemlok over flatline XD (it's probably the best AR atm). The yellow hopup on flatline felt slow though. Didn't try using it on enemies though, since I had a charged rifle in that game.

Did also had not the chance so far to check out the new hopup. They could increase the appearance of the new stuff, espacially at the beginning of this season, so players can check their new toys faster.
Did not try the new map and BP yet cause i am away but i can see the problem already: never ever happy cry babies!
You've asked for a new map and you've got one.
You've asked for the bugs to be fixed and you've got them fixed.
You've asked for something to be done to the OP attachments and you've got it.
What's your problem then?
As far as i understood this new map and its huge open spaces will be a great feature for snipers: a skilled sniper is always welcome but we know how people like to hide in order not to engage any fight; sniping should not be the main way to fight and this is the real issue about the new map, but i repeat myself: i did not play the game since about two weeks now so, i will be able to give a feedback once i will jump in!
- @Biochemikas Well, I was already owning that cute charge rifle.
Picked mozambique only one time and already had the hammerpoint hop-up for it. Didn't expect to have so many "dates" with the charge rifle, thought it will be a rare weapon, yet got to laser with it in half on the matches I played. @DarthValtrexI tried the hopup on G7 once. Couldn't down a moving bangalore at 50 meters with a full mag. Immediately took it off and wiped that squad XD.
It either needs some adjustment to aiming or it's simply just a terrible hopup for G7. It also felt like slower overall fire rate than just single fire. So it would only make sense if your goal is just to hit the 2 shots. Maybe I'm just too used to spamming single fire, I never use burst hemlok either.
I had a golden eva8 once and it did feel a lot better on that gun. Although weirdly it sometimes fired only 1 shot per click, when i was spamming it.- @Biochemikas Yellow hop up on the Flatline is supposed be a more mid-ranged weapon and in single shot. Try putting a 2-4x scope on it and using it at mid range. I have not had much of an opportunity to do it yet though, so I don't know if it's legit or not. If you're running that set up w/ a sniper rifle you'll want to keep distance between you and the enemy. If you go into closer engagements just pop the hop up off and carry it inventory. When I had it I kept the hop off unless I had a chance to use it at mid range.
Since this map has some really wide open areas I always carry some type of sniper rifle. I also keep 2 scopes on me.. The 4x-8x and a mid range of some type.Typically keep the mid range on the gun, with the 4x-8x in my inventory incase it's required.

Imagine 2 or even all 3 mates using it on one enemy. This battle would be finished within seconds 🥳
- @Biochemikas Eva 8 is going to take some getting used to for me. The double tap made me burn through the clip faster then I was used to... That ended up getting me killed because I thought I had a few more shots in the mag.. LOL
Flatline w/ hop up is going to be an adjustment as well. I loved it in the old map, so using it in a different role is going to be a major adjustment for me.
I did the same with the G7, I'd basically use it as a pistol and for mid range. Spam fire it.. When I would start to get sloppy with my aim on full auto weapons I'd pick up a G7 and bring that aim back to where it needed to be.
I have a clip of me knocking someone at 215 meters at skull town with a 3x sight. on the old map hahaha - I’m late to the party so lemme say, Happy Birthday All! New map, new sets of crybabies coming out with the waterworks, still can’t believe they’re a year older and start crying and pouting! Hurray!
Lemme tell you a true story. I once got held up in a cage for so long that I’d grown to like it. Didn’t see sunlight for days until I did and I didn’t like it, while at first I really liked sun. That cave was my room, and the sun was... well the actual sun.
It seems like that’s happzening now. People complaining about no new map, need for a new map or drastic improvement for King’s Canyon. It has changed and people were like ‘YESS FINALLY!’ played it for 1 hour it seems and were like ‘SNIPERS! SNIPERS! GD SNIPERS!!!’
Well I’m here to tell you all, yes it’s definitely more open landscaped. Abundantly more sniper battles per match it seems BUT if you can’t use your wit to adapt (that word has been uttered alot lately) if you can’t snipe or don’t have a sniper, you should
A. focus on improving your skills/abilities
B. stop playing this game or BR in general
C. continue to waste your time and energy crying to a bunch of internet persona’s that don’t care about you or your post most likely.
I hadn’t played apex for 2 weeks, played wednesday, tired from working but wanted to see how the new map is, especially after all the posts/threads I’d seen. First match: horrid for my doing, second match, relatively fine, third match, was back to my old self. In all those matches I saw sniper fire and was attacked by it, but without knowing the lay of the land, I outmanoeuvred and outplayed my enemies till I got that win. If you’re wondering; 8 kills and just shy over 1.4K dmg. My teammates? You mean those drag-me-downs? 56:0 and 160:1 dmg/kill. And this continued.
I don’t like change. I was perfectly content with King’s Canyon, but hey, you gotta learn to go with the flow... if it’s forced or educated going along that is. Cause I’ve seen so many speak of ‘bring king canyon back/why won’t it ever return/why no circulation of the 2 maps’ when the patch note clearly state that they took out King’s Canyon out of circulation to test some things and that they will look on how to put it back. Yet some or most of you likely heard 1 thing from 1 person. Took it as fact and spread misguided intel which other TLDR no-brainers saw and continued to spread.
A good lesson for you people is life. See what happends when life doesn’t give you healthy lemons but rotten ones. Are you gonna cry about it, look at them or form a plan and make a new batch!
