This game is over for me

@hayhor Gotcha. I'm going to say I don't really mind hiding in a ring game, again, because I think you get flushed out in the end.  Probably this has to do with the quality of your enemies too...you just can't hide and win only in Gold+, you're going to have to get kills.  I mean, sure, if you want to tag Gold IV and stop, maybe, but you aren't going to rise through gold.

Now, what people call hiding (not you but what I see here) is basically anything other than running straight at your enemy with your R2/fire button held down.  And then they get mad at you for 'camping' 'hiding' and 'third partying' when they get killed by, you know, bad play.  And I guess that would be fine if, you know, I was like super young and totally my reflexes were my best resource as a person.  Yeah, sure, then you know I'd favor the small box room with no cover hot drop and draw, best reflexer is left standing.

But Apex, and frankly any half way decent game, should involve strategy.  And strategy does not mean 'pop your head up out of your trench and start shooting'  No, you use cover, you rotate, yoj move, you pick your engagements and yes, as part of that equation, get kills.

Old Apex had much more strategy.  It had less characters and less levels, but way more strategy.  That all started changing, I'd dare say, with Horizon.  Horizon meta was a problem.  She was nerfed. But then they brought Valkyrie in.

And then they brought the Circus show that Seer was in.

Past that, even with Seer nerf, it's been ridiculous and not fun for people who think as much, imo.  Now because I personally am a glutton for punishment, apparently, I stuck with (though I really came close to splitting and definitely looked into other games to spend my time with).  The saving grace so far has been the way scoring works now, it makes much more sense.  So even with all the reveal and height meta, you get rewarded more, not perfectly but more, now for doing what you are supposed to be doing...getting kills AND playing smart.

I can't control Respawn and this Original Poster is making the right move if he wants to change games.  I haven't found a better one myself yet, but that doesn't mean this one is in an awesome state.  It's better, is all I can say.  And, I just wanted to make my own counterpoint which is you can be old, and, you can be diamond.

Beyond that, I'm not sure.  Not with my PS4.  I mean, at some point, a controller hits it's limit....NO WAIT AUTO AIM WILL CARREE MEE TO PRED! :P
