VISUAL BUG! - Gibraltar Skyhook BROKEN!
There's a game breaking visual bug when I've played Gibraltar on Skyhook. I don't know what causes it. As soon as I leave Skyhook the bug goes away. It's like giant blue objects flickering and obscuring everything so it's impossible to play. I play on an Xbox Series X, game has no issues like that anywhere else. Not sure if it's specific to Gibby, and what causes it. His gunshield maybe? Some kind of visual bug from the blue glow from the gunshield? But it is a game breaking bug, needs urgent fixing.3Views0likes0CommentsWattson needs to be nerfed
Dear Apex Legends I would like to mention the fact that Watson has had a big buff for the past few seasons and I think she should be nerfed. The fact that she can electrocute doors is insane, it stuns and slows you down to the point where u can’t even move your screen. This is one of many reasons I think Watson should be nerfed. Please look into this and get other people’s opinions on it. Please fix this now! Thank you42Views2likes3CommentsAbout unable to purchase colour change for the Gundam lightsaber
About unable to purchase colour change for the Gundam lightsaber,This issue was not clearly explained during the linkage,Therefore, it is no longer feasible for me to use the season pass green coins to unlock the remaining colours I have unlocked the Gundam lightsaber, but I can no longer purchase colour changes, which is very frustrating. There are probably quite a few players who haven't bought the colour change yet and are as helpless as I am. I think players who have a lightsaber can unlock the option to change its colour for purchase in the warehouse interface.94Views0likes0CommentsThe Reason I Choose Apex Over Other FPS Games
Recently, a friend asked me why I refuse invitations to play Overwatch or Valorant but still play Apex. This gave me an opportunity to reflect on why Apex is the game that stuck with me. I have realized that what attracts me to Apex Legends is its nature as a "sports-like rational experience" and a "high fantasy that can be conquered through pure logic." Initially, I thought I was drawn to Apex over titles like Overwatch or VALORANT simply because I preferred its realistic CG over an anime-inspired art style. However, visual style alone does not explain my preference. While CoD and Escape from Tarkov also offer realistic graphics, I did not stick with them. The "realism" in those games extends beyond visuals to include "real-world absurdities," such as instant death from a single ambush or one shot SR. Rather than finding this appealing, I actively avoid it. This made me realize that I am not seeking raw realism, but rather "systemic rationality" within the game. The reason I chose Apex over Star Wars Battlefront—which shares a similar blend of realistic CG and fantasy—lies in my rejection of "rule-breakers" like Jedi or Sith. I feel a strong aversion to Overpowered (OP) entities that bypass the established competitive framework. The dissatisfaction I frequently express regarding Apex tends to focus on two areas: matchmaking and balance adjustments for characters and weapons. This is because both issues undermine the very "systemic rationality" I value.16Views0likes0CommentsThe Dead Bahrain Server: A Two-Hub Solution for Africa, South Asia, and South ME
Hi everyone and the EA/Respawn Team, With the recent physical infrastructure damage to the Bahrain AWS servers, a huge portion of the player base is effectively locked out of the game. Right now, if you're in Africa, the Middle East, India, or Pakistan, you're likely seeing -1 ping or 100% packet loss on the Bahrain server and are forced to connect to foreign servers with frustrating lag. We get the business side of this and completely understand that North America and Europe have clusters of servers because that’s where the biggest player bases are. It makes sense to invest where the most people are to prevent crashes and instability. But right now, the current setup is failing everyone outside those regions. The Bahrain server has proven to be a failure, both geographically and in terms of reliability. Instead of trying to revive the dead Bahrain node, this is an opportunity to rethink the approach entirely. A simple two-hub strategy could bring these fragmented player bases together into healthy matchmaking pools: The Nairobi Hub (Replacing Bahrain): Right now, the player base is split between a non-functional Middle East server and the absence of a proper African one. Shifting Bahrain’s role to Nairobi, using the existing AWS infrastructure there, would act as a regional bridge that serves the entirety of Sub-Saharan Africa and the Southern Middle East such as Saudi Arabia, Yemen, and Oman. This would merge two struggling populations into a single, active matchmaking pool with far better connection quality for everyone involved. The Mumbai Hub: Players in South Asia, such as India and Pakistan, are currently stuck between a dead Bahrain server and a congested Singapore server. A dedicated hub here would remove the current bottleneck, giving players in the region a reliable alternative while at the same time capturing one of the biggest, fastest-growing gaming communities in the world. It’s also worth addressing the idea that Lag Compensation makes these distances manageable. In practice, it doesn’t. In fast-paced modes like Wildcard, high ping and constant stuttering make the game frustrating and, at times, unplayable. No amount of netcode smoothing can compensate for being shot behind cover or having inputs delayed or ignored. Players affected by this aren’t asking for perfection, just a fair and consistent connection. Maintaining a ghost server with empty queues isn’t just frustrating for players, it’s also inefficient. By replacing the failed Bahrain server with these two hubs, you'll likely fix the Matchmaking Loop where people don't queue because it's empty, and it's empty because no one queues. We’re not asking for the extensive server coverage that some regions enjoy. We’re simply asking for two functional hubs so we can actually play the game we love on a level playing field.23Views0likes0CommentsAudio is a serious issue still
I’m sure this has been discussed many times. Nevertheless the audio update months back hasn’t fixed the main issue this game is having. Example is footsteps from behind. Mainly once the distance is within 10-5 meters (right behind you) it’s completely silent at times. Not always but enough. This is when players are sliding, running, unholstering and jumping into a 6 o’clock position that should be very present upon engagement. A real critical point of the audio and should be the loudest I would think. Please advise. Respectfully, x8Views0likes0CommentsEvery match theres a cheater
You need to permaban them, all those 70k are allowed to just make a new account and rejoin in 5 minutes. These lobbies are the worst I've ever seen in this game since I started in season 11. I'm about to quit this game, these lobbies aren't even close to fair when I have to actually use my mouse to aim18Views1like0Comments
