Skirmisher has been meta 90% of this games lifetime, if they intentionally overbuff them it'll give me a chance to try other good games I've missed, because I won't be playing apex at all that season.
Shouldn’t take 5 years for your AAA published competitive driven game that produces yearly revenue in the billions to find an identity for its ranked game mode. I get that Devs don’t have full reign on the game but good god where are the ranked legend or weapon skins. They’re sitting on an actual gold mine of content and it feels like they only have one guy armed with a rusty spoon digging up the gold. How hard is it to add a bomb site to Arenas and throw it back into the game. How hard is it to add more progression aside from occasional Apex packs and weapon badges. Why can’t we get an insane 99 player BR mode. Why can’t we host custom games without needing an absurd amount of players. I could keep going but the comment would get even more excessive.
I agree there should be more free-to-play to play for, but the rewards for ranked are the rank that you played for. I'm not playing a separate battle royale game mode for a free-to-win battle royale item.
@@kayleptwomoons1007 ????? why would anyone perform a difficult task and not expect a reward or payoff for completion? Every other game that has ranked play offers rewards to the players for their ranked achievements with more than just a "hey this is your rank." I don't understand how anyone would come to your conclusion of the reward for ranked play being just your rank itself, especially when there's no in game leaderboards to show your rank publicly. If YOU don't want to play ranked for an in game reward then simply don't participate. It just means you didn't want the reward that bad and nobody is going to force you to earn it. Just because YOU don't want to try to earn something doesn't mean that millions of others shouldn't have the opportunity.
@itswhatDEXTER Overwatch just gives you a star next to your name until the end of the season. That's all a ranked reward should be, a little gold star for Overwatch's ranked cucks.
I’m the one who made the statement they Buff characters and come out with new skins for those buff characters so you would buy them up. And then after they made all their money off of that buff character, then they Nerf the shit out of them and move onto the next one this is their make money model.
Coincidentally it mirrors my constant change to my advance setting sensitivity… I guess my muscle memory isn’t that good so usually have to tweak it daily
I don't understand the issue with character nerfs and buffs. Every game I know of does this in some way to keep the meta changing so it doesn't become stale and you have to learn to play against and adapt to that meta. It won't always be any one way. The main issue people should be focusing on is having more content and game modes so people of all skills and enjoy themselves playing the game. This includes balancing pubs matchmaking. If I want to sweat and try hard I play ranked. If I want to screw around I play pubs or mixtape.
Yesterday was hitten up some ranked. Currently D3. 40% of my games I was matched with other diamond however they had silver/gold mentality of solo pushing and hot dropping. Lost way too many RP for those games and not fun just sheer mental health damage. 50% I was getting matched with golds and even silvers. Tried so hard to help them and show them how to play positioning over brainless aggression, whilst it didn’t go well they lived up to my expectations so wasn’t disappointed. But the truely sad thing is they put out more damage then most of my diamond ranked team mates which is just pathetic. How they got diamond putting out less then 200 damage in multipal fights I’ll never know. The remaining 10% I got matched with actual similar skill players and done really well, lots of top 3’s and 2’s and a few wins. Match making needs to be reworked and fixed. There really needs to be a ranked progression trial for people to prove they really belong in high ranks. I was consistently putting out 1.3-2k damage with a lot of kills by the end. Because getting diamond team mates that can’t do more than 200 damage is just not acceptable for people supposedly near masters. I get having a bad game but when it happens so consistently then there’s an issue
It sounds nice but what it really means is there is no one professional enough to understand how to balance abilities and they end up making bad changes. Rampart wasnt balanced at release she was underpowered. Way to glaze yourself for doing bad work. Rampart is still in a bad place as buffing her ulti doesnt fix the problem with her walls. The ulti is good but she isnt a viable pick.
I think the game would be much more interesting if every legend was buffed, they are asking for opinions about the game so I sent a long email to them which has many ideas for new abilities ( a third ability besides ult and primary ability, a movement one for every legend based on what is more appropriated for each legend, which is activated by the same primary ability key, but the movement one being a fast push on the key (fast input and release) and the normal tactical press and hold a bit more here's the email I sent: I created a really usable and enjoyable second tactical concept that can bring new life to Apex, for all characters which are mostly movements tacticals and some other types of tacticals but pretty balanced if all characters have one. Because its new and you guys don’t know if its gonna work as intended, it could be added in a separated casual game mode. For example path, horizon and valk who has pretty much similar movement tactical (example valks jetpack instantly throws her 2,5m to 3,5m in any direction, while pressing foward, back or sides) These tacticals can be triggered by the same tactical key, If you fast press and release the key in less than 0.20 second the tactical key (fast click), you will use the movement tactical, if you press and hold for 0.40 seconds or more you will use the normal tactical. There are many other interesting ideas for non movement tactical characters and reworked passives for example crypto ( I didn’t know that catalist would have a similar passive) but crypto is a hacker and I think it would match if he was able to lock at least 2 doors, doors not reinforced, just locked for enemies and breakable as normal. Lifeline drone follow her while healing so it’s more usable and able to go to your teammates and help healing, and rework her ult for a mini healing dome, like gibs dome but a healing pool ( only for teammates, otherwise if the team get pushed and get the spot stolen this ult would be a nightmare for her own team). Wattson second tactical instead movement tactical, she can place 2 tesla coils that has some visible electricity but if someone gets close it will inflict damage. Fuse puts 1 or 2 mines( I know you guys could be already working with something similar for other characters but still would be nice) Fuse being able create 1 mine or to transform granades into mines/traps Loba puts 2 fake red or purple deathbox so people who try the armor swap will get nothing more than a small explosion causing 25 to 30dmg, and her movement tactical would be a short dash/teleport and holding would activate her todays tactical. Caustic can make gas come out from his suit for 4 or 5 seconds, he doesn’t have movement tactical like dashes etc but people will need to avoid really close fights against him specially around boxes or pillars cause he will have advantage, or try to follow him because the gas left behind, which could be bad for him cause people will know where he’s going but not able to follow the same path for few seconds, a movement tactical character can easily avoid it by dashing though. Crypto already has 2 ways tacticals so the drone be placed easily just like vantage and her echo (just fast press tact and he send the drone where he is pointing, which is easier and more fun to use, with 360 scan, and a bit more silent. Mirage second tactical instead of movement tactical he becomes instantly invisible for 1 second and able to shoot ( really short vanish). Wraith is similar, be invisible for 2 seconds but into the void and without any traces like in her main tactical but not able to shoot, just a more malleable dash for repositioning or before using her main tactical, but with instant activation like a “dash” from the other movement tactical characters Valk ultimate instead of vertical launch, she can choose any angle Path passive like lot of people already said, he could see from distance, and ping all enemies he sees for his teammates by holster weapon and hold right click and zoom more by pressing shift, and if he click ping in one enemy, all visible enemies (for him at the moment) in that area gets the enemy ping mark, so teammates can see where there are enemies. And his movement tact could be a instant jump, not a big jump like revenant or vantage, but a jump higher and faster than normal, just the way it’s already been used but the tactical movements doesn’t require you to look to the direction you want to dash, its just the combination of AWSD and dash to the sides front or back and he could after this use as a combo with his normal tactical, and to become more fun and easier/flexible and make him easier to learn, making his tactical easier to use, maybe the pull of his tactical faster, and become more reliable reducing misusing the tactical, I think missing the tactical and having to wait it charge frustrates sometimes Ash movement tactical is just a dash and her arc snare much faster, that thing is too slow, her tactical is so easy so avoid, cause it comes in slow motion and the sound of it coming should be a bit quieter. Could be with the sound if the snare speed was faster. Bloodhound has no dashes but he can summon 1 prowler with his second tactical by holding the tactical key for 0,40 secs, the prowler has really low hp, will disappear in like 10 secs, and cause almost no damage, its just to make the enemy reveal himself by shooting it, or finding the enemy, and by just fast pressing the key 0.20 secs it will scan normally. Bangalore has the digital threat scope built-in in her tactical goggles but only works when looking through the scope (ADSing)it means while using any scope she can see the enemies who is inside the smoke, if she’s inside the smoke, but only when ADSing. Her second tactical could be that speed boost she already have when someone shoots her. Octane instead of dashing, he has 1 instant slide by fast clicking the tactical key and if you hold a bit more you can run. I think this order can be more beneficial cause would be used in combo. There are many others but I can’t remember right now, and it’s already becoming a book this email. Apex is a really fun game, it’s the game that I want to play for a long time, love the shooting, the competitive feeling, but what makes apex be interesting for me is the characters and their abilities, so if you guys could make it more fun or at least fix some characters abilities it would be awesome. There are other ideas of how apex could make money instead of selling skins and heirlooms and more fair and interesting for both sides, but this would be another long text, so if you guys are interested in hear, let me know. And also new game mode, the involve killing and looting enemies banner from death boxes, its more complex than that and I could explain better, but it could be a new way to enjoy pubs. Anyway I think buffing all legends would make the game a bit crazier but really fun. Everybody using their legend at their best but also against stronger enemies. They could test it in a new game mode maybe?
We'd need a mode where you can have all that without returning to the lobby every time you make a mistake against the one-clipping masters players. If we had a mode where each part of the map had points to pickup to win the match, then we could have respawning without all the hotdropping, and if we had infinite respawning, we could actually have 60 players all running around different parts of the map without hard 3rd partying ruining matchs. Like "Battle Royale Control" with squads having to leave each round if they can't find enough points or survive to keep their points. Killing wouldn't get you points or allow you to take other team's points, but you could also run everywhere and grab points if your teammates have lizard brains or you could camp a few points nodes if you play stationary characters. Players would get punished for hotdropping and lose out for camping, and individual players could still make a difference for the first few rounds.
This is to some section of people: If they really want this game to die then why come to every apex related videos and post game is dying. If you don't like it or can't able to get a kill move on to other games. It is not always to get a 20 bomb or 5k badge its about enjoying with friends and nowadays some randoms are cool to play with. If you can't enjoy just go play something else. Don't come here and say I uninstalled 2nd/11th season itself and this is dead. If you uninstalled longtime ago why care about updates
It really feels like they’re trying to “spotlight” other characters/character classes with a lot of these changes. I feel like they’re really missing something huge with not combining perks for character combos. So many of the characters have relationships/interactions outside of br and I think adding team up perks or a mode where that’s something that can happen could add a new layer of fun/strategy to the game. Instead of trying to add and take away certain abilities for certain characters and their classes, throw them a team up perk, this might (HUGE MIGHT) also deal with things like balance and team configuration. Hell it might even encourage people to choose those characters that are least picked or just plain not picked at all. (Yes I know marvel rivals does this, it makes the game fun, I want this game to be fun again)
Respawn: "Nobody learns new characters unless we make them op and even then, steamers start complaining about having to adapt, so (hopefully)ignoring them, we will try again to have less than 15 Wraiths per lobby." Hero shooter players: 🤙 Apex players: *toddler noises Streamers: 💂🤡👨🦼
I love the fast heals we need to keep that in the game. I am a Maggie main and love that the Maggie’s stood on Business! Maggie‘s do as Maggie‘s do. I love the idea of a class Meta above the classes give me unlimited ammo with the assault class
A few weeks ago, I was about 4-6 games into Ranked(I’m almost thru Plat), at one point I said to myself “honestly nothing aout this is fun”, turned it off and ain’t turned back on since. This game wants you to grind your life away for no sort of fulfilling rewards- and they have you gamble every last dirty ass penny they can get out of you for things you do want. I haven’t played Fortnite in years- redownloaded that and been having actual fun. Apex lost me the same way NBA2K did during 2K23-24. They just nickel and dime you for every conceivable thing, but just absolutely refuse to provide any free or worthwhile content in exchange for the countless hrs and dollars you’ve already sunk into the game.
The Maggie ball nerf was really dumb. It’s an ult bro just like their ult it was literally a perfect idea that it can counter those ults could’ve seen lifeline Newcastle Maggie instead of just pathfinder
Healing should be the same for every class. Healing should not be a class driven asset for a BR. They proved it with allowing everyone the chance to replicate banners. It works. Reviving, respawning, and shielding sure. Give them ways to protect their team when performing those tasks, sure. Newcastle’s ult should not outshine a Watson ult for area attacks. Make cells and syringes 50 for everyone. Give support the ability to double stack them to free up inventory. Take away lifelines gliding. She’s not a scrimmager. Allow for fuse and Maggie to counter play Newcastle better.
Yeah to take out the gold shield nd then give it to all support characters as a passive is pretty ass... I've only played support this season because of it.. as a Fuse main with no movement perks or healing perks, mfs just gotta pop 1 shield cell throw a wall nd push nd I can't do shit about it
Have you ever play a freaking game? Or at least a couple of shooters? Even in real life medics are medics so for sure they will have perks to heal and always they have advantages healing themselves and healing the team plus unique perks relating to healing so thanks god you are not a dev pal!
@@wizaaard3028im a Fuse main and thats not true bro if they do that they just trap themselves put one knuckle cluster out of their barrier one inside and push you get them with half life and no shield while trying to get their shields no matter if they manage to get full halth as you are going to be already with gun in hand and they dont!! EZ!!!! I love to destroy Support characters they are the easiest to kill and to make a squad wipe you just have to know how!
The healing isn't bad. It's the shields that even post-nerf allow teams to easily reset. If Crypto or MM were hard counters, teams wouldn't be able to reset even if they healed to full off of one cell.
I like how overpowered some of these classes are. Buffing assault would be ideal, I think assault characters weapons should do extra damage and maybe have something like warzone where they can have custom weapons of their choice to get somehow, and and possibly drop with a pistol of some sort?
Give each class something special such as some of them have, may work. Such as let skirmisher carry 2 survival items or something, assault more nades and ammo or something? Idk but it has potential
Personally I’m really tired of the skirmisher legends and not looking forward to the OP skirmisher cycle this info basically guarantees. Support meta was very fun since randoms had a reason to play together and you had a change to recover from them being dumb.
I mean I kind of liked how everything is going around, the meta shift helped me get better with shotguns which I barely play and shield dance, would be cool if they do the same with assault next
Make maggie ball pass through and boop them out of shield if they dont want them breaking shield. U cant just spam fire at that point making shield still useful. But now maggies fire perk is actually useful filling bubbles.
It’s exactly what the game needs, make something OP every season and keep everything strong, nothing is fun if everything is just nerfed into the ground
It MAKES SENSE TO BUFF THEM in order to see how they need to make them stronger. The problem being WHENEVER THEY MAKE NEW LEGENDS THEY’RE BROKEN CUZ THEY’RE MADE BETTER. Now that they know how to make legends whenever they make new ones sometimes just the new legends tactical is better then some other legends ult. There’s an imbalance of power. The best way to figure out how to buff legends is to over power them and then nerf them. Buffing slowly takes way longer and it’s hard to nitpick what to fix. If you make the legend a beast you can quickly figure out it’s strength and weaknesses and adjust accordingly. This is annoying but the diversity forces you to try out different legends and to that I agree with. I hate it too but I also sound like a chump/noob when I say “I only main ONE legend”. That’s so weak. I have over 20 options and I can’t learn more? I’ve seen players throw TANTRUMS because somebody takes their legend. They’re even more mad not just because they lost their plan A but they have NO PLAN B and end up being a liability in game during fights.
First off, weapons and legends stay OP for at least 2 seasons, not no half season bs. Second, having assault or skrimisher be buffed second is the dumbest idea. Sure, let's make the agro OP and have everyone else slowly catch up a year or two later. It's just to get people back it's not too keep people playing. No skill studio.
I like all these changes that Apex is making. Cheaters are way less this season. I like the class changes and perks. I dont play support characters, so this seasons meta is rough for sure. But im enjoying the changes and trying to figure out new ways to make Vantage viable in this Meta. Its challenging but fun
I ENJOY the meta. I wouldn't be opposed to other metas as well. Requires different playstyle and that in itself keeps Apex fun for ME. I understand it Funnels players into having to play a specific way in order to conform to the standards and be competitive but still... its never anything permanent. Just not something that has bothered me
I don’t have an issue with buffing legends, but why would they remove all the counters idgi. You know how manageable NC would be if EMP still blew up the shields? He can still support and pull off insane revive plays, but without him they created a meta where there pretty much isn’t any good anti meta, running a crypto would still be less viable than NC Lifeline Path (less reset potential, easier to 3rd or no team movement) but you’d still get a decent team MU into NC Lifeline.
Literally Newcastle shield has been destructible by again this week and EMP/Sheila counter it. 😅 just commenting in case you haven't played in a few weeks.
After 3k+ hours in this game I just don't feel the desire to play it anymore. There's plenty of other competitive games to try out that are better in so many ways. How hard is it add new or previous content. Plenty of limited time game modes have gone by and for some reason they barley make comebacks. LTMs are cool, but we've played each map and game mode 100+ times already. How hard can it be to create new LTM maps - you literally just have to cut out a portion of Olympus, Broken Moon etc... and that's it. Arenas failed but at least they were trying to be innovative back then. You really just have to try other games to realize what a waste Apex is.
I'm not sure what the pick rate for Maggie was (my main) when I stopped playing right after season of support launched but I played a metric fk ton of Apex and rarely had to pick another legend. Like maybe two or 3 times a day. They act like there is a Maggie on every team for their nerf to her effectiveness against shield mechanics and that's just not the case. There are supposed to be counters... removing them, removed the whole point of picking legends for their kits. Respawn are idiots 😂
ok so we are just making every ability broken and becoming overwatch 3 instead of fixing the cheater issue and making a skillful meta without 3 bubbles and 3 mastiffs in every fight
Sure let's make every class very distinctive. So distinctive that you must have 1 character for every class. Remember how Overwatch died? Forced character role match making.
Apex players: I'm bored, give us fresh new content instead of just lame skins Respawn: completely overhauls several legends, classes and game mechanics adding a new map and even a new perk system over the course of a few seasons Apex players: Waaaaaaaa I miss old apex Literally just take sbmm out of ranked and we're good
tbh i never blame the legends i pick, i blame myself for having dogsh!t aim or not being ready for a gunfight. (yes these games are super comp, but i just play hard while hard, jk but having fun, knowing im not gonna win everytime. which makes the game funner for me cause im always craving a FAT dub with the boys, on g)
Just buff caustic bro he needs a rework honestly Caustic is big for NO reason every other big character has cover as a Q but caustic is just big and his traps aren't even that good anymore there is no reason why u would ever pick caustic over wattson
its not easier to let it be over powered first, as you see most people are leaving with these "buffs" and on the other hand if you give people power, and then you strip it away later, it just feels like shit, people are going to play the shit out of new castle get good wi th him, then devs nerf him to the ground, and then any time investment goes out the window, c ause the legend no longer plays like it did.. you can't just add shit and take it back, you have to be very careful with what you add, how you implement it, and how you plan to settle the storm after you strip players of their time.
Selling legend skin are the main reason they buff them. They will definitely buff and nerf all legends and weapon especially not popular legend. That's the basic logic behind it.
In the words of Incredible boy "if everyone is Super no will be". So instead of buffing a whole class they should save crazy buffs like that until they have a buff for every class and drop all the buffs at the same time.
Hopefully they won't overwork themselves, fiddling with them hue sliders for new recolours must be fking hard
Give them a break. They are already useless in life. Pretty sure they can't even code a single line of c++

The remaining 10% I got matched with actual similar skill players and done really well, lots of top 3’s and 2’s and a few wins. Match making needs to be reworked and fixed. There really needs to be a ranked progression trial for people to prove they really belong in high ranks. I was consistently putting out 1.3-2k damage with a lot of kills by the end. Because getting diamond team mates that can’t do more than 200 damage is just not acceptable for people supposedly near masters. I get having a bad game but when it happens so consistently then there’s an issue
It sounds nice but what it really means is there is no one professional enough to understand how to balance abilities and they end up making bad changes. Rampart wasnt balanced at release she was underpowered. Way to glaze yourself for doing bad work.
Rampart is still in a bad place as buffing her ulti doesnt fix the problem with her walls. The ulti is good but she isnt a viable pick.
"no one professional enough" 😆 you're just upset about your particular fav, kid
bro what are you on about ive seen multiple ramparts. Have you even played for a good stretch of time.
@chinno721 I'm sure you see all kinds of unviable heroes in your gold games. Rampart is not a viable option.
I think the game would be much more interesting if every legend was buffed, they are asking for opinions about the game so I sent a long email to them which has many ideas for new abilities ( a third ability besides ult and primary ability, a movement one for every legend based on what is more appropriated for each legend, which is activated by the same primary ability key, but the movement one being a fast push on the key (fast input and release) and the normal tactical press and hold a bit more
here's the email I sent:
I created a really usable and enjoyable second tactical concept that can bring new life to Apex, for all characters which are mostly movements tacticals and some other types of tacticals but pretty balanced if all characters have one. Because its new and you guys don’t know if its gonna work as intended, it could be added in a separated casual game mode. For example path, horizon and valk who has pretty much similar movement tactical (example valks jetpack instantly throws her 2,5m to 3,5m in any direction, while pressing foward, back or sides)
These tacticals can be triggered by the same tactical key,
If you fast press and release the key in less than 0.20 second the tactical key (fast click), you will use the movement tactical, if you press and hold for 0.40 seconds or more you will use the normal tactical. There are many other interesting ideas for non movement tactical characters and reworked passives for example crypto ( I didn’t know that catalist would have a similar passive) but crypto is a hacker and I think it would match if he was able to lock at least 2 doors, doors not reinforced, just locked for enemies and breakable as normal. Lifeline drone follow her while healing so it’s more usable and able to go to your teammates and help healing, and rework her ult for a mini healing dome, like gibs dome but a healing pool ( only for teammates, otherwise if the team get pushed and get the spot stolen this ult would be a nightmare for her own team). Wattson second tactical instead movement tactical, she can place 2 tesla coils that has some visible electricity but if someone gets close it will inflict damage. Fuse puts 1 or 2 mines( I know you guys could be already working with something similar for other characters but still would be nice)
Fuse being able create 1 mine or to transform granades into mines/traps
Loba puts 2 fake red or purple deathbox so people who try the armor swap will get nothing more than a small explosion causing 25 to 30dmg, and her movement tactical would be a short dash/teleport and holding would activate her todays tactical. Caustic can make gas come out from his suit for 4 or 5 seconds, he doesn’t have movement tactical like dashes etc but people will need to avoid really close fights against him specially around boxes or pillars cause he will have advantage, or try to follow him because the gas left behind, which could be bad for him cause people will know where he’s going but not able to follow the same path for few seconds, a movement tactical character can easily avoid it by dashing though.
Crypto already has 2 ways tacticals so the drone be placed easily just like vantage and her echo (just fast press tact and he send the drone where he is pointing, which is easier and more fun to use, with 360 scan, and a bit more silent. Mirage second tactical instead of movement tactical he becomes instantly invisible for 1 second and able to shoot ( really short vanish). Wraith is similar, be invisible for 2 seconds but into the void and without any traces like in her main tactical but not able to shoot, just a more malleable dash for repositioning or before using her main tactical, but with instant activation like a “dash” from the other movement tactical characters
Valk ultimate instead of vertical launch, she can choose any angle
Path passive like lot of people already said, he could see from distance, and ping all enemies he sees for his teammates by holster weapon and hold right click and zoom more by pressing shift, and if he click ping in one enemy, all visible enemies (for him at the moment) in that area gets the enemy ping mark, so teammates can see where there are enemies.
And his movement tact could be a instant jump, not a big jump like revenant or vantage, but a jump higher and faster than normal, just the way it’s already been used but the tactical movements doesn’t require you to look to the direction you want to dash, its just the combination of AWSD and dash to the sides front or back and he could after this use as a combo with his normal tactical, and to become more fun and easier/flexible and make him easier to learn, making his tactical easier to use, maybe the pull of his tactical faster, and become more reliable reducing misusing the tactical, I think missing the tactical and having to wait it charge frustrates sometimes
Ash movement tactical is just a dash and her arc snare much faster, that thing is too slow, her tactical is so easy so avoid, cause it comes in slow motion and the sound of it coming should be a bit quieter. Could be with the sound if the snare speed was faster. Bloodhound has no dashes but he can summon 1 prowler with his second tactical by holding the tactical key for 0,40 secs, the prowler has really low hp, will disappear in like 10 secs, and cause almost no damage, its just to make the enemy reveal himself by shooting it, or finding the enemy, and by just fast pressing the key 0.20 secs it will scan normally. Bangalore has the digital threat scope built-in in her tactical goggles but only works when looking through the scope (ADSing)it means while using any scope she can see the enemies who is inside the smoke, if she’s inside the smoke, but only when ADSing. Her second tactical could be that speed boost she already have when someone shoots her. Octane instead of dashing, he has 1 instant slide by fast clicking the tactical key and if you hold a bit more you can run. I think this order can be more beneficial cause would be used in combo. There are many others but I can’t remember right now, and it’s already becoming a book this email. Apex is a really fun game, it’s the game that I want to play for a long time, love the shooting, the competitive feeling, but what makes apex be interesting for me is the characters and their abilities, so if you guys could make it more fun or at least fix some characters abilities it would be awesome. There are other ideas of how apex could make money instead of selling skins and heirlooms and more fair and interesting for both sides, but this would be another long text, so if you guys are interested in hear, let me know. And also new game mode, the involve killing and looting enemies banner from death boxes, its more complex than that and I could explain better, but it could be a new way to enjoy pubs.
Anyway I think buffing all legends would make the game a bit crazier but really fun. Everybody using their legend at their best but also against stronger enemies. They could test it in a new game mode maybe?
We'd need a mode where you can have all that without returning to the lobby every time you make a mistake against the one-clipping masters players. If we had a mode where each part of the map had points to pickup to win the match, then we could have respawning without all the hotdropping, and if we had infinite respawning, we could actually have 60 players all running around different parts of the map without hard 3rd partying ruining matchs. Like "Battle Royale Control" with squads having to leave each round if they can't find enough points or survive to keep their points. Killing wouldn't get you points or allow you to take other team's points, but you could also run everywhere and grab points if your teammates have lizard brains or you could camp a few points nodes if you play stationary characters. Players would get punished for hotdropping and lose out for camping, and individual players could still make a difference for the first few rounds.
When was pathfinder labeled support?🤨
Legend Meta Won't Matter if Your Teammates Don't Know How to Use Them Most of the Time While All the 3 Stacks Have Mastered Them Long Ago.
People still play this game?
If I told you NO I would be lying, if I told you YES it would be wrong...
This is to some section of people:
If they really want this game to die then why come to every apex related videos and post game is dying. If you don't like it or can't able to get a kill move on to other games. It is not always to get a 20 bomb or 5k badge its about enjoying with friends and nowadays some randoms are cool to play with. If you can't enjoy just go play something else. Don't come here and say I uninstalled 2nd/11th season itself and this is dead. If you uninstalled longtime ago why care about updates
I actually completely agree with Respawn here. Make a clear meta every half a season keep mixing it up. Makes the game less stale overtime.
Bro wtf ... why are they trying so hard when it's to late ?? They should've done this like 2 years ago
Honestly they could add fast heals to every support legend and a additional with their 1st or 2nd upgrade to include fast heals
It really feels like they’re trying to “spotlight” other characters/character classes with a lot of these changes.
I feel like they’re really missing something huge with not combining perks for character combos. So many of the characters have relationships/interactions outside of br and I think adding team up perks or a mode where that’s something that can happen could add a new layer of fun/strategy to the game.
Instead of trying to add and take away certain abilities for certain characters and their classes, throw them a team up perk, this might (HUGE MIGHT) also deal with things like balance and team configuration. Hell it might even encourage people to choose those characters that are least picked or just plain not picked at all.
(Yes I know marvel rivals does this, it makes the game fun, I want this game to be fun again)
Respawn: "Nobody learns new characters unless we make them op and even then, steamers start complaining about having to adapt, so (hopefully)ignoring them, we will try again to have less than 15 Wraiths per lobby."
Hero shooter players: 🤙
Apex players: *toddler noises
Streamers: 💂🤡👨🦼
For me it's perfectly fine, as I'm mainly playing mixtape, the more the legends go wild, the funnier!!
your channel would 10x if you started covering all FPS because apex is dead
This is apex channel, maybe he should do woodworking tutorial?
I love the fast heals we need to keep that in the game. I am a Maggie main and love that the Maggie’s stood on Business! Maggie‘s do as Maggie‘s do. I love the idea of a class Meta above the classes give me unlimited ammo with the assault class
A few weeks ago, I was about 4-6 games into Ranked(I’m almost thru Plat), at one point I said to myself “honestly nothing aout this is fun”, turned it off and ain’t turned back on since. This game wants you to grind your life away for no sort of fulfilling rewards- and they have you gamble every last dirty ass penny they can get out of you for things you do want.
I haven’t played Fortnite in years- redownloaded that and been having actual fun. Apex lost me the same way NBA2K did during 2K23-24. They just nickel and dime you for every conceivable thing, but just absolutely refuse to provide any free or worthwhile content in exchange for the countless hrs and dollars you’ve already sunk into the game.
The Maggie ball nerf was really dumb. It’s an ult bro just like their ult it was literally a perfect idea that it can counter those ults could’ve seen lifeline Newcastle Maggie instead of just pathfinder
Healing should be the same for every class. Healing should not be a class driven asset for a BR. They proved it with allowing everyone the chance to replicate banners. It works. Reviving, respawning, and shielding sure. Give them ways to protect their team when performing those tasks, sure. Newcastle’s ult should not outshine a Watson ult for area attacks. Make cells and syringes 50 for everyone. Give support the ability to double stack them to free up inventory. Take away lifelines gliding. She’s not a scrimmager. Allow for fuse and Maggie to counter play Newcastle better.
Yeah to take out the gold shield nd then give it to all support characters as a passive is pretty ass... I've only played support this season because of it.. as a Fuse main with no movement perks or healing perks, mfs just gotta pop 1 shield cell throw a wall nd push nd I can't do shit about it
Have you ever play a freaking game? Or at least a couple of shooters? Even in real life medics are medics so for sure they will have perks to heal and always they have advantages healing themselves and healing the team plus unique perks relating to healing so thanks god you are not a dev pal!
@@wizaaard3028im a Fuse main and thats not true bro if they do that they just trap themselves put one knuckle cluster out of their barrier one inside and push you get them with half life and no shield while trying to get their shields no matter if they manage to get full halth as you are going to be already with gun in hand and they dont!! EZ!!!! I love to destroy Support characters they are the easiest to kill and to make a squad wipe you just have to know how!
The healing isn't bad. It's the shields that even post-nerf allow teams to easily reset. If Crypto or MM were hard counters, teams wouldn't be able to reset even if they healed to full off of one cell.
@@BlackBearShadow yeah cool they all do already, the perma gold shield is over kill regardless what irrelevant ass games youve played before
Im calling it, with the rift phase kit theyre testing to make wraith insta phase again
I like how overpowered some of these classes are. Buffing assault would be ideal, I think assault characters weapons should do extra damage and maybe have something like warzone where they can have custom weapons of their choice to get somehow, and and possibly drop with a pistol of some sort?
Give each class something special such as some of them have, may work. Such as let skirmisher carry 2 survival items or something, assault more nades and ammo or something? Idk but it has potential
Bro was in war with that pathy
Thank you for the effort
Shooting bodies in an LTM is wild.
I dont know what happen to the quote gunskills over characters ability. Apex devs have lost their way.
Personally I’m really tired of the skirmisher legends and not looking forward to the OP skirmisher cycle this info basically guarantees. Support meta was very fun since randoms had a reason to play together and you had a change to recover from them being dumb.
The devs are clueless haha. The one dev saying they wanted lifelines new ult to not have a counter is brain dead.
They should bring back that reactive Eva 8 camo the blue and yellow one
The problem here is character like Seer who have been in the buffed classes so far, he still greatly underperforms compared to other legends
I mean I kind of liked how everything is going around, the meta shift helped me get better with shotguns which I barely play and shield dance, would be cool if they do the same with assault next
Support season is awful. Everyone just runs away and gets a free rez. Always end up getting griefed by a team you already beat 5 times that match.
Last time i played, i got lobbies full of motionless bots, so i cleared every weekly challenge in a day.....
Make maggie ball pass through and boop them out of shield if they dont want them breaking shield. U cant just spam fire at that point making shield still useful. But now maggies fire perk is actually useful filling bubbles.
It’s exactly what the game needs, make something OP every season and keep everything strong, nothing is fun if everything is just nerfed into the ground
if something is OP it means everything else is nerfed to the ground compared to that
@@AbominableNation maybe read what you reply to next time
I hate that fuses cluster damage himself
It MAKES SENSE TO BUFF THEM in order to see how they need to make them stronger. The problem being WHENEVER THEY MAKE NEW LEGENDS THEY’RE BROKEN CUZ THEY’RE MADE BETTER. Now that they know how to make legends whenever they make new ones sometimes just the new legends tactical is better then some other legends ult. There’s an imbalance of power. The best way to figure out how to buff legends is to over power them and then nerf them. Buffing slowly takes way longer and it’s hard to nitpick what to fix. If you make the legend a beast you can quickly figure out it’s strength and weaknesses and adjust accordingly. This is annoying but the diversity forces you to try out different legends and to that I agree with. I hate it too but I also sound like a chump/noob when I say “I only main ONE legend”. That’s so weak. I have over 20 options and I can’t learn more? I’ve seen players throw TANTRUMS because somebody takes their legend. They’re even more mad not just because they lost their plan A but they have NO PLAN B and end up being a liability in game during fights.
I would love that bring every legend back to their op version and than fix things starting there
apex is dying
Not dying it’s already dead
It's depressing
Hopefully 🤞
EA killing it slowly
Another click bait title anyways . He trying to milk the views for $$$
First off, weapons and legends stay OP for at least 2 seasons, not no half season bs.
Second, having assault or skrimisher be buffed second is the dumbest idea. Sure, let's make the agro OP and have everyone else slowly catch up a year or two later. It's just to get people back it's not too keep people playing. No skill studio.
I like all these changes that Apex is making.
Cheaters are way less this season. I like the class changes and perks.
I dont play support characters, so this seasons meta is rough for sure. But im enjoying the changes and trying to figure out new ways to make Vantage viable in this Meta. Its challenging but fun
They need to take a serious look at what's happening and make better decisions.
This guy thinks rampart launched being balanced, lead game designer btw
Something is always going to be unbalanced
I ENJOY the meta. I wouldn't be opposed to other metas as well. Requires different playstyle and that in itself keeps Apex fun for ME. I understand it Funnels players into having to play a specific way in order to conform to the standards and be competitive but still... its never anything permanent. Just not something that has bothered me
I don’t have an issue with buffing legends, but why would they remove all the counters idgi.
You know how manageable NC would be if EMP still blew up the shields? He can still support and pull off insane revive plays, but without him they created a meta where there pretty much isn’t any good anti meta, running a crypto would still be less viable than NC Lifeline Path (less reset potential, easier to 3rd or no team movement) but you’d still get a decent team MU into NC Lifeline.
Literally Newcastle shield has been destructible by again this week and EMP/Sheila counter it. 😅 just commenting in case you haven't played in a few weeks.
Apex is dated... Boring.... and broken beyond repair.
Turn off double med heals in the ring. Fixed.
Please go play with the ranked players if you're one of them that wants gameplay taken out of the gameplay.
After 3k+ hours in this game I just don't feel the desire to play it anymore. There's plenty of other competitive games to try out that are better in so many ways.
How hard is it add new or previous content. Plenty of limited time game modes have gone by and for some reason they barley make comebacks. LTMs are cool, but we've played each map and game mode 100+ times already. How hard can it be to create new LTM maps - you literally just have to cut out a portion of Olympus, Broken Moon etc... and that's it. Arenas failed but at least they were trying to be innovative back then.
You really just have to try other games to realize what a waste Apex is.
I personally think matchmaking is a bigger issue than meta
I'm not sure what the pick rate for Maggie was (my main) when I stopped playing right after season of support launched but I played a metric fk ton of Apex and rarely had to pick another legend. Like maybe two or 3 times a day. They act like there is a Maggie on every team for their nerf to her effectiveness against shield mechanics and that's just not the case. There are supposed to be counters... removing them, removed the whole point of picking legends for their kits. Respawn are idiots 😂
I’ve been taking a break. Just waiting for something to bring me back… still waiting
I know at least 5 people that haven’t played Apex since Marvel Rivals came out.
This game has gotten to a point where you’ll get laughed at for still playing
I agree with everything especially mad maggie not being the counter that it should be. But i personally enjoy being forced to learn new legends.
You shouldn't be happy that you get dragged around like a puppet by them....
Might aswell buff every class an go from there
5:00 pathy on pathy crime 😂
The beef was real
ok so we are just making every ability broken and becoming overwatch 3 instead of fixing the cheater issue and making a skillful meta without 3 bubbles and 3 mastiffs in every fight
Honestly, there’s nothing that could get me to come back to this game. It’s just not it anymore
Power creep killing the game.
8:01 worst take i’ve heard, theirs reasons they aren’t how they were now.
What rank are yaw on marvel rivals
Double healing is fkn broken. And they may look into it in the future? Proper cooked.
Sure let's make every class very distinctive. So distinctive that you must have 1 character for every class. Remember how Overwatch died? Forced character role match making.
Hit a mastiff shot for once in your life
Crypto is useless this season, ifyou emp they just get thier shields back in seconds, drone dies in Ring 3 .
Apex players: I'm bored, give us fresh new content instead of just lame skins
Respawn: completely overhauls several legends, classes and game mechanics adding a new map and even a new perk system over the course of a few seasons
Apex players: Waaaaaaaa I miss old apex
Literally just take sbmm out of ranked and we're good
They should give wraith ash’s ultimate so she can have 2 ultimate and rework ash
tbh i never blame the legends i pick, i blame myself for having dogsh!t aim or not being ready for a gunfight. (yes these games are super comp, but i just play hard while hard, jk but having fun, knowing im not gonna win everytime. which makes the game funner for me cause im always craving a FAT dub with the boys, on g)
no lie tho, i be getting pissed asf at myself for losing back to back but i think thats just my problem.
Just buff caustic bro he needs a rework honestly
Caustic is big for NO reason every other big character has cover as a Q but caustic is just big and his traps aren't even that good anymore there is no reason why u would ever pick caustic over wattson
Make Fuse as meta 😄
I'll always support your videos brodi, but I still ain't playing the game lmao
its not easier to let it be over powered first, as you see most people are leaving with these "buffs" and on the other hand if you give people power, and then you strip it away later, it just feels like shit, people are going to play the shit out of new castle get good wi th him, then devs nerf him to the ground, and then any time investment goes out the window, c ause the legend no longer plays like it did.. you can't just add shit and take it back, you have to be very careful with what you add, how you implement it, and how you plan to settle the storm after you strip players of their time.
Selling legend skin are the main reason they buff them. They will definitely buff and nerf all legends and weapon especially not popular legend. That's the basic logic behind it.
I already uninstalled apex im done so. servers and matchmaking made me stomach sick and anxious and tired of sweating.😊
So tired of of the nit picking.. they need to focus on new modes or something
you forgot control
oh make wattson great again!!!
In the words of Incredible boy "if everyone is Super no will be". So instead of buffing a whole class they should save crazy buffs like that until they have a buff for every class and drop all the buffs at the same time.
All you children in the comments need to remember that apex is free to play. Complaining about the cost of cosmetics is wild😆😆
Gonna say it again, FIX MM
Don't F'n touch Horizon !!
bring back old revenant
Lmao
Crossplay killed apex and ever other game
Time to start playing Diablo Resurrected again. I have lost all hope for Apex.
