@@frieren848 im glad people try it, no shame to the noobs and low skilled players. But its nice to see that people are "able" to frag out on the steam deck. Would be nice if they added a option to increase the HUD size just like the switch version has when its in handheld.
@@typhlo9797 true, but this is EA/nuRespawn unfortunately, they already keep breaking things every season (I think the Deck still has long freezes at the beginning while looting?) so I wouldn't get my hopes up, even the 120fps mode on consoles is mediocre.
It’s really really laggy this season. The skin dont even load up half the time during character select screen. Freezes happen here and there. The overall experience wasnt as nice as the last time i played. But they did the change the status from “verified” to just “playable” tho.
I’ve been searching for a video that clarifies the differences between the Steam Deck and the upcoming ROG Ally X for months. As an Apex Legends player who primarily plays on a console and travels frequently between countries, I’m torn between the two options. I want to play smoothly and competitively, better than on an average PC. Could you help me decide which would be the better choice? Your advice would be greatly appreciated!
forgot to ask you this but ...what res do you play at and what are your settings? are u happy with the overall performance on the Deck or is something like the ROG Ally better fit for shooters?
i dont own the ally so i cant speak on that. Everything is set to low, fov 104, vsync off, disable frame limit, native res. Obviously im quite a sweat. Steam deck hardware limits how well i can play. TO ME. Its honestly not the best experience. Its really only good for getting ur daily and weekly missions done in mixtape. If u care about your stats in pubs, dont play on the deck. I was lucky the lobby was relatively easy as i filmed the video.
The button layout is another issue. The steam decl layout is terrible for shooters. I think the play station remote portable thing has the best button layout. Its basically a regular ps5 controller with a screen in the middle. If that thing can run games natively and give you 144fps minimum, It would be the best shooter handheld.
@@jack-bn3zh yeah i kinda looked a bit awkward on your video but i couldn't identify it properly, i no-life with a dualsense edge so like you i'm at home with the PS layout and thought that the symmetrical sticks on the Deck were a good alternative of that but I guess not hmm thanks a lot for the info! i'll start looking for alternatives
Keep postin' Deck vids and I'll stick around.
Nice to see a benchmark from someone who is good at apex.
FR THO!!! it sucks that so far we've only gotten videos from total noobs, i can finally see my experience replicated on a Steamdeck video lmao

@@jack-bn3zh oh i didnt know that. Yeah this season has been laggy for everyone.
When playing games like these it's better to add sprinting on on or the back buttons it's more playable.
or just auto run why you walking in apex tho

Wait for the ally x if you are a very very competitive apex player.
@@jack-bn3zh thank you much appreciated ❤️
how many games of apex can you play in one full battery?
I haven’t tested it out but i would say u can at least get a minimum of 3 hours play time with uncapped frame rate.
@@jack-bn3zh thank you
Is there is any way to fix there lags while picking up a gun?
I wish when playing on the steam deck you’d could opt to be in console lobbies so it’s a bit of an even match going up against control players.
yea i agree. handheld console player should be put in the same lobby as the regular console player.
does the oled also stutter at the start of matches and when picking up weapons?
The game was “verified” last time i played. Currently the game is rated as just “playable”. And yes its stuttering quite A LOT this season.
