I get that you could be coming from the original consoles from 2013, but that's not what this discussion was supported to be about at all. I blame myself for the title, my bad. I changed it to better reflect what I was trying to say.
This wasn't at all to be a PC just wins or anything close to that. I'm not biased and/ or brand loyal to any company or product at all. I could love a game, but if they do something I hate, I'll speak my mind instantly.
The point I was trying to convey was that my weaker PC could run Apex Legends far better, even though the Xbox Series X has better hardware then my PC. That's only my point of view though. I get some people are coming from older hardware and the SSD alone should be enough for people to be happy. I'm not at all trying to bash your new experience, I'm not that type of person. Just stating my point of view with the system.
I don't agree on the subject that consoles have a bigger community than PC for Apex Legends, I think the opposite. I think most free 2 play games have more people from PC because they spent all their money on their hardware. Is that biased thinking? I know more people who spent $100 on their heat sink then games in the last 2 years on PC.
All jokes aside, I still think Apex has a bigger PC community still. A quick glance on Twitch looks mostly PC with controllers in my opinion. Most like the high 200+ frame rates.
Another point is the aim assist. Yeah, it's true that PCs have cheaters. That's 100% real. After playing on console this much though, with this amount of aim assist, this feels like everyone is an aim bot...
Like, everyone has god aim. On PC, it would be rare for a mouse & keyboard player to hit you this much, even some good players.
I would honestly play against a mouse & keyboard player, over an aim assisted controller player any day. I think that's why I like playing PUBG on consoles, it has no aim assist.
Also for my name is not John. The frame counter starts on frame 0. That why it goes to 59 when running at 60fps.

Now that the title has been changed, I am no PC guru but I think they could better optimize it for next gen for sure. For a number of reasons a lot of devs at different companies are behind in optimizing for the new Xbox, hardware availability was a reason, I have my fingers crossed that we will see more optimization in the future. Unlocked framerate beyond 60 for sure should be an obvious one, I don’t know what else they could do since I’m not super familiar with PC settings- Anonymous5 years ago

For starters I would immediately have an option to disable ambient occlusion, anti aliasing, lens flare and motion blur. It's adding to the input latency too much in my opinion. I'm only asking that they allow the user to disable these, not saying they should just turn them off automatically. - hayhor5 years agoHero@MyName1sNotJohn I want an optimized ps5 version. Fortnite has already done it. The new COD tdm game runs at 120 fps. Warzone actually got a boost on the new xbox but not ps5. I believe Apex will eventually but with everything in this game they seem to prefer keeping things hush hush.
- 5 years ago@hayhor I hope y’all get an optimized version. From what I know about PS5, certain games it is not possible to optimize due to the way you guys have backward compatibility sorted out, so I know we have Rocket League and Warzone 120fps options but you do not which is unfortunate. I hope more options are given for Apex next gen across both platforms.
I don’t believe Apex was a super optimized game for last gen (the bois at Digital Foundry considered the base Xbox One/S version to be the only platform where you are at a disadvantage compared to others, I can confirm), Respawn has work to do in that department but considering next gen hardware I believe it is certainly possible. They’re not bad at optimizing, Titanfall 2 on last gen was awesome and I can barely notice a difference on Series X, but a BR with huge map and non-cartoony art style i feel was a challenge for last gen. But I have fingers crossed that they will come through after Switch version is out since that is the next major platform release.
