Bot Royale is such a great idea. I love playing FPS games with my kids, but I hate how much I have to sweat for them to be able to have fun. This should encourage younger kids and new players to the game!
Agree! My kids are excited, for sure. They have no idea what they're doing in BR, so they get fried right away, even though they go 10-14 kills in mix tape.
I agree as well this also will be a way for those switching to mnk as well my son plays Fortnite and has gotten pretty good(he's 5 over 50 wins lol) my daughter also wants to learn to I gave her my Xbox and switched to my desktop for mnk
I'm so with you on this. I just want to work on my game sometimes, and not in the firing range. I hope hope hope hope there are difficulty levels in these bot royales so I can up the difficulty of them if need be. I want the option to play against bad/good/great bots depending on my mood. Please please respawn.
Been watching our boy J, Crazy, Moose, Rich, etc. for forever while I haven’t been on. Every month that goes by I realize more and more how far behind I’ve gotten. This bot thing though? This might be my shot at returning…
Agreed! Also more fun on the reverse side because getting grouped up in my games with completely new players that don't really understand their legends is annoying.
Bot Royale will be good for movement players too that wanna practice difficult movement tech on the actual maps and not just in the firing range. As a casual player I don't have access to private lobbies
i can finally go and practice mantle jumps at streamer building because it seems to be the one place where i can never pull them off and i rarely have a chance to practice in an actual game.
Looks like its going to be a Gibby/Caustic/Newcastle season. Gibby can bubble the red bins, Caustic will cause havoc with his traps around every corner, and Newcastles movable revive will come in clutch with being able to move around corners while reviving. Interesting. Time to dust off the ol caustic prestige skin then i feel lol
nah wattson instead of caustic. her buffs are kind of nuts. one of her perks let's her ult infinitely recharge shields and the other does it super fast (faster than conduit Q).
@@AgunziLFC the healing isn't completely constant because the gen needs to recharge before it can heal you so i don't think it's extremely overpowered. the faster healing gen has less health and can be destroyed easier and obviously once it runs out of shields, it runs out. if you want to see some gameplay of it, soar dazs has a good video.
@umaleatorio4369 They don't need to nerf it, it wasn't buffed. It's just all the smg's suck. Buff them, instead of nerfing a gun that's only " op'd " by default because the other guns are shit.
@@AgunziLFC nah bro the mag size and dmg per bullet is a problem. it def needs a nerf especially since they justnerfed all the other competitors too it like alternator, flatline and r99. well they buffed the r9 but there's only gonna be maybe one in every other game so ya that don't count. the havoc is still gonna be ran 90%
Its crazier they didnt buff the SMGs or reverted some of the nerfs to make them half viable. If anything, they even nerfed Alternator by removing the disruptor. The one gun NOT a single soul complained about. And i say that as an MnK player. It just sucks soooo much having to carry 2 AR's all the time because they nerfed most sh&t into the ground.
Holy shit, this map, the akimbo, the changes last season, finally a company that's doing what they say. Actually putting the money where their mouth is. And I've gotta give props to that Imo, when they said they are gonna give the players the quality they deserve. I doubted it, but if this is the quality we can expect ( I'm not talking growth of quality, I just mean if this quality is maintained) they are doing what they said. And the fact that it's still a free game, the maps are free, and all the modes are free. This is the best fps game. I might actually give this company my money, maybe get the battle pass or something. If this is what they are gonna be putting out, if this is how they are gonna run their company. I'll support that. You put your hard work towards the quality, the "rewards" will come. And I'll support that. It's when you put it towards the money, and ensure your rewards before it's done, (like most big companies) that I won't support.
came across you after being a fan when apex was at its prime. safe to say im still a fan and stumbling across your videos on my page made me want to pick up the controller again. much love jankz
Would be great if the gave controllers better movement while also nerfing aim assist It just feels awful sometimes the movement on controller (Speaking from someone who plays in pc lobbies but plays on console so never used configs or other movement assistance)
The game is fun The community is just killing it Competitive games should be their own thing, so casuals can have fun. I bust my a** 10+hours a day to have some relief and cant have a good game without a cheater in the lobby or a very devout player. it's just annoying, and yes. I am complaining about this bc my whole day is stressful and games are supposed to be fun
BIGGEST PROBLEM IS PING /MS IS HIGH WE IN SOUTH AFRICA IS RUNNING 160 TO 180 MS WOULD BE NICE TO HAVE OUR OWN LOCAL SERVER JUST LIKE IN BATTLEFIELD WHERE YOU CAN SELECT LOCAL SERVER.
Curious what the aim assist nerf _really_ means for console. I know Jankz said it won't change but if you switched to performance mode (120 hz) when the update dropped a while back, then you've been playing on 0.4 since then. You only get 0.6 if you're still playing at 60 hz. I'm fine with it either way; just curious.
Not sure how I feel about District. It looks dope, but it also looks like call of duty. Like straight outta warzone. That isn't necessarily a problem and some people like the up close battles, but part of the reason it works for CoD is because CoD is built for that. The TTK is much lower, the sound WORKS, and (at least for the games without jetpacks) your characters can't fly/grapple/jump pad/grav lift/etc. around great distances to ignore all that cover. Hell maybe I'll end up liking the map more than any of the others, I don't know yet. What I do know is LEAVE MY HEMLOCK ALONE. Just buff some of the other stuff, dude. You know the R-301's DPS is almost 40 points lower than the Havoc? Like, yeah, the Havoc hipfire was too good, but also if the other guns could compete you would see them more. Hemlock losing one damage will only reinforce star wars meta when people pick up the nemesis instead. "They're balancing comp and casual." Don't care, Hemlock is my boy from day one, leave Brittany alone.
For someone who only has about 600 hours of apex under their belt, bot royal is gonna be a great way for me to practice movement in a actual game rather than just running around in the range.
@@titaquaboeie6917 but that's not true entirely because if you switched to 120hz when the update dropped a while back, you already got dropped to 0.4 on console.
So they nered the alternator with no disruptors, nerfed flatline, pretty much took the r99 out the game, gave lmg's a negligible buff and basically left the havoc where it was at at the top of the food chain... Fk apex man...
@titaquaboeie6917 because it doesn't make any sense... u have to break shields in order to do health damage so why does killing give full shields back ... no allowing to grab a broken better shields ie swap a blue for a purple and then heal the purple makes sense ... other br such as pubg armor doesn't heal on kills Fortnight doesn't have swaps and cod doesn't either ...just doesn't make sense ... would slow game play down which everyone complains about saying lobbies die too quick which is partly do to hot drops and shield swaps instead of healing ... also is in a sense unfair I'm a fight .... I agree it takes some skill etc but it also should take skill and penalize ppl for over committing
It has been an ongoing trial for two seasons with values between 10-45% .. applied randomly to entire PC lobbies (also how reWASD was discovered). The final value decided upon based on data gathered during the trial was a reduction of approximately 25%

So glad I started playing with it more. He was spot on.

So the new mode is basically just Resurgence from Warzone?
Yaaayy! Finally a City style map.
“Recon legends ehhhhh” killed me! Love watching you Jankz
First map looks properly titan fall style!❤
I do wonder how would it work with ballistics ultimate? The akimbo weapons...
Season 22 might be a banger with lots of meta changes. Thanks for sharing Jankz.
Is it just a visual glitch or is there no slot for disruptors on the alternator in this vid? It sucks anyway but I'd prefer it to be gone.
Reminds me of “Resurgence”
Lowkey might download Apex again for the first time in months.
Get that free battle pass! Only half the season and you’ll have enough coins for whenever you wanna hop on again
Highkey
And Crypto can go invisible now too😮 like holy shit. I'm a Watson main but I might try a little crypto out this new season
If they actually put akimbo in I may try a three p2020 combination.
One with a 2x optic for mid range and an akimbo for short range.
Maggie is going to be crazy with the dbl hammer mozies 😂🤘
Alter should have been released with this map...suits her abilities so well
Great video! I appreciate you not complaining without thinking of the general player base.
New season sounds hella cool!! Thanks Jankz & Respawn!

how did it feel to play without cheaters been many many years since i experienced that

That's why you don't have friends.
why did they change the way numbers stack when shooting. Looks icky. Why dont they poll these kind of changes first.
You can turn off health bars and revert.
