Regarding the current state of Apex
I know there are many of you who will probably dont agree with what im going to say especially when there are many who trash talk this game on the internet but honestly speaking like if im not being mad about losing a game or being a main to someone who isnt that good then I would def say this game is amazing, Like seriously its one of best FPS games and the best BR out there in the whole genre (And that is huge BTW) so lets put all the negativity aside for a second and be thankful for what the team did to a game that is accessible to anyone without paying upfront. Now with that being said id like to share my ideas about what apex doesnt have but could have that would make the game a lot more fun to have. I will talk about mainly 4 point: Recon class Controller class Gibraltar And Finally Revenant So lets talk about the recon class. IMO its obviously not as good as Assault or Skirmishers at the moment and the numbers prove it. Here are some ideas: Since Recon class legends are based on gathering info, Why not make it so they gather more info than revealing the enemy position briefly? There could be icons next to scanned players that shows players using heals. Pings. And even hear what the legend says (I find this fitting with tracking in general and hacking in specific) Scanned players could have weak points that take critical damage Most of the Recon class legends can have more power in general Bloodhound scan duration can be increased CRYPTo can have a minor speed boost after using drone for 5 seconds and existing SEER needs more power to his whole kit Valkyrie tac hit can scan opponent Controller class: Suffers from the same fate as Recon as in not being played and not having enough power to compete with the others. I honestly think they should reconsider giving general power to the whole class especially Caustic and thats all what im going to say about this. Gibraltar: Good but not fun. Make him fun. Revenant: BRING. OLD. ONE. BACK.
Has Apex Added bots to fill lobbies this season?
Since about begging of this week my pub lobbies, in my somewhat dead server (AU), have begun consisting of only pred 3 stacks or level 30s. Previous seasons and even the start of this season have been good, consisting of normal players and the Master solos or 3 stacks I'm used too. Buy recently these level 30s appear in every 2nd or 3rd queue and take up 90% of the lobbies, been really noticable these last few days. Some of them play like actual bots, with aim similar to that of a master/pred, and some just... don't really do anything. So I'm wondering if Apex has started injecting bots into games in order to shorten queue times and give players free and easy games?Are Bots in BR now?
I began playing again this season and found myself in firefights that were unusually easy. The first time I thought it was a newbie but as it kept happening I realized where I had seen such lack of competition before- in the bot royale playlist. I also noticed that the number of players in the queue seem a bit lower lately. Is EA filling the empty squads with bots now when the population gets low? honestly if I want to play against bots I would go play a Halo campaign.BUFF CAUSTIC
As a Caustic main from since he has been released, there has been only a few changes to his character. Most of these changes have come in the form of nerfs which is not ok. Caustic needs either a rework in itself or some serious buffs because every time you are in close quarters combat it feels like the enemy doesn't care about his traps or gas. I believe either 1 or 2 things need to be changed to truly make Caustic someone to be feared in close quarters or at least balance out his beefy build against quicker and leaner legend's Make his initial gas trap damage higher. There was a time when his trap damage started at 10 dmg/sec. This was perfect and enemies really had to question if pushing or engaging was worth the trouble. Make his initial gas start at 5 damage then after each second pass it increases and continues to increase until the enemy leaves the gas area. Please make these changes because with a very low pick rate, Caustic is dying as a character. If there are any other ideas on how to improve Caustic I would love to hear them but as of now, he needs some help.
