no solo
Stripped all the fun titanfall mechanics even though they would have made the downtime in between firefights not a slog.

The battlepass is a disaster, legends are still horribly unbalanced, every other game is fillled with chink aimbots. This game will be dead by the end of next month.

Fartnite already has double the viewer count, it’s over

no solo queue, shit aesthetic, runs like shit, ugly ass characters, shit netcode, list goes on

It's battle royale

Nothing. Big surge of players when it was the new hotness and it's dropping down to a more reasonable level as the trend hoppers move on and the people who actually care stick around.

no solo

It was always destined to be another Realm Royale, the only reason it survived so long was because of EA marketing money and a massive shilling campaign and even that wasn’t enough.

Streamer fags who drop solo then rage out at their team ruined it for pubs.

I think it's more fun than other Royale games but I have never understood gamers tastes. I like RA2 over StarCraft for instance.

ignore every post itt. it's just that it's really stale, even though it has a hero system. the amount of heroes aren't gonna cut it, because imbalance means you see the same heroes every single match, especially the better you get. same for weapons; winged man peacekeper spitfire winged man peacekeper spitfire winged man peacekeper spitfire with the occasional longbow and r-301

Got woke.

Go broke

Too much forced diversity and microtransactions.

Bangalore has awful looking hair, why didn't they do a real buzz cut or fade instead of a bush on her head?

A vast majority of players being absolute retards they jump immediately and die in the first minutes of the game leading to boring games without any fight during mid and late game. PUBG had the same issue on Erangel with the school and the military zone.

Nothing as of right now it's the most popular game on twitch streamers love it normies love watching it the characters are cool and relatable and funny they have a voice and they use it unlike the characters in other games that dont speak. I honestly think this will be the game to dethrone fortnite. Graphics are great microtransactions arent intrusive gunplay is a solid 9/10. Just really the peak of battle royale anything less would be cheesy and anything more would be try hard. Respawn entertainment will go down as the little studio that could, the David that brought down the goliath.

I hate this shit.

Either your jumpmaster hotdrops you into 20 other squads, gets downed, and immediately leaves, or he drops you clear across the map and you spend 15 minutes of running and looting only to be sandwiched by 2 teams and die.

some legends are utter garbage
and game crashes every 2 seconds

Literally nothing. A military-like (albeit a lightly so) can't beat fortnite because the latter targets kids all the way down to preschool age, and it depleted the potential for the foreseeable future for any game to be "everyone's" first BR.

Game is really fun though, but it has a piling amount of issues that need fixing. The latest patch was pretty promising so we'll see.

The guns feel off also I can barely see other players and the whole map is just brown and grey with a tiny splash of green. Also only 3 characters with non obnoxious hitboxes

This is what you should do though. The first lesson to pick up in a BR, especially if you're playing with randoms, is that you will die a lot and it shouldn't bother you. If you fight early, you'll get to learn your two temporary friends, who to rely on and ultimately if you have a chance. If you don't, then why not die as fast as possible while getting some fragging exercise in the process? Going into the lategame with an untested team and untested cohesion is just as much a roll of the dice as hot dropping.

>he didn't censor fun
I really like Apex though. It's my favorite br game by far.

Every game is fucking 2 squads remaining after the first few minutes because the dickhead devs dont realise that there is no tangible benefit to winning the game, so people just farm kills for badges and trackers.

FOMO and a huge ad budget can't carry a game that isn't actually enjoyable.

Nothing. The game has gained massive popularity and earned tons of income for a relatively small amount of effort from the devs. Plus unlike other BR games they aren't using unreal engine, which means they don't owe epic even a single penny. They've cucked Fortnite out of millions of dollars

This. Popular games can't be bad or have things wrong with them.

Get dabbed on, h8ers.

I've won a few games with untested teams before but the majority of wins I've gotten were with teams that have survived crazy bullshit early on
I hot drop just as a filter, if we can't survive the initial drop we aren't going to survive in rounds 5 or 6 so might as well get it done with asap

Unappealing character designs
Overwatch had good designs for both male and female characters which had resulted in some great porn

It's fun.

I think the crux of the issue is that the game, for lack of a better word, is violent. Violent for violence sake. And I think that people are starting to outgrow games like this. Look at the most popular games out right now; none of them super violent. People dont want to be responsible for perpetuating this culture of toxic masculinity which is in a huge part caused by video games

>performance is down to how much money you spent for Internet and your PC
>no solo
>no updates within a reasonable time
>unbalanced as fuck weapons stats

Funny. Very clever.

my biggest gripe with this game is that the healer class is one of the mlg pro streamer picks so most people that play her will never drop the healing drone unless they need it
fuck, if the other 2 squad members are low, just deploy the goddamn drone already

They got rid of all the mobility so retards could stand a chance

Not him but I do agree on the map size, the map is crazy small for a battle royal game, and the fact that it's the game only map makes the game get old pretty quickly.

It's just a squad multiplayer like CoD, essentially.

Boring gunfights that end up feeling the same and wins don't feel as satisfying as other games.

I just played a game with a guy who singlehandedly wiped 33 players. Since he was on my team I could clearly see him cheat with teleports and sanic speeds.
This game's anticheat is a joke.

What's the point in a bigger map? Just to walk and loot more without seeing anyone? It's only 60 players so it makes sense that it's smaller than those who have 90 and 100.

My stupid teammates won't heal off the drone half the time for some reason.

Bazinga!

one small map, people got bored

Just look at it.

This. What the fuck is up with these overdesigned Lawbreakers shit. At least Fortnite embraces the same simplicity that TF2 does without going too much into Science Fantasy like Overwatch does.

Nothing's wrong with it.
Y'all are retards, Solo mode would ruin the game.

EA barely had anything to do with the development of Apex, other than telling Respawn to scrap Titanfall 3 and Respawn asked to release it as Apex. EA stayed out of development THE ENTIRE TIME.

Needs more parkour, at least 2 more maps and a few more guns that feel distinct.

Also, faggots who don't hotdrop can fuck off. I'm here to play and not spend 10 minutes trekking through the map before a single firefight starts. If the team can't survive the hotdrop then you might as well not waste time and move on to a new round. It's the only way to guy gud and test team cohesion.

>Also, faggots who don't hotdrop can fuck off.
Hotdroppers who don't stick together and head instantly off to die alone can also fuck off.

Its fine honestly. Game is fun. Servers are unstable though and Battlepass seems really underwhelming. Just means thats pretty much it content wise until June or whenever. I was planning to get the battlepass but I didn't see anything I wanted out of it. I want to show some support to them because I'm max rank and I like the game but I haven't seen anything that I want yet skin wise. All I ever got out of lootboxes were two whites and a blue minus a purple mozambique skin, a yellow crafting material, and a yellow Mirage skin. And I don't play Mirage.

In all honesty thats a good thing for me because it means I can start working on my back catalog more. And Sekiro just came out and I'm playing that. Soon Outward is coming out and my buddy and I are coop on that.

>defending Steam from the comfort of the Origin launcher

You aren't very good at this.

their base skins all look cobbled together and scrappy, just like the shitty shacks and run down facilities all over the map

Truer words have never been spoken.

it's literally Lawbreakers BR you blind goose

Unbalance and lack of updates. The battle pass is atrocious and there were little to no adjustments to neither the heroes nor the weapons for this last patch, which took a month and a half to come out

That was radical heights.

Everybody talking about apex finally made me pick up Titanfall 2 and it's fucking great. Just wanted to let you guys know, thanks for reading

I feel that. Octane is like the only appealing design out of all of the characters for me.

it saved EA

The campaign alone is worth the $7.50 price tag it usually goes for.

Octane is best no doubt, but I actually like Mirage.

Focus on survival, not shootshoot bangbang.

EA only bought the shills for a couple weeks. I kind of feel like they must have had some kind of Springtime for Hitler scheme going on with Anthem because it seems like Apex's only point was to sabotage that.

Yea Forums hates popular things and also likes to pretend they're not popular

jk, game's optimization is shit

>What the fuck went wrong?
Other than the netcode and occasional PC crashes, the bones of Apex are good. I mean, just compare the fluidity of movement and quality of life improvements it has over BR competitors like PUBG.

The fact that we only have one map and complete character and weapon imbalance, however, is not good. I'm just shy of hitting level 100 and I'm very sick of the game. I have no idea what they were thinking with the hitboxes.

>best players just jump from fight to fight ending with 10+ kills every round
T-T

To much focus on team playing on a game which seems built on a solo experience. The special skills of each champion seem to benefit that champion in particular instead of the group, and the one champion that can reasonably benefit the group forces said group to be stationary. The game that requires and rewards quick reflexes and speed is brought to a halt as everyone has to go into a hiding spot to get healed up. What makes no sense as well is that they clearly tried to build around this problem by making heal and sheild drops plentiful, which creates a paradox in which you can have a team of selfish players in a game that supposedly rewards team effort.

The game desprately needs a solo play, or at the very least a rework of all the champions to be able to work as a team.

battlepass being too grindy

Wraith is Basic as shit along with Bangalore You know this to be true.

i've been playing with friends it's mostly been fun but

>dogshit netcode
>needs solo/duo queue fast
>dumb unbalanced shit like hitboxes
>pc performance can be spotty at times (i haven't had any problems but my friends have)

>no strafe jump
its on source engine so thats where youre wrong, kiddo

This is a big problem. The one thing that is good about the fortnite battle pass is that it is very easy to do, or to just buy. It has that gacha-style dopamine rush because it is so easy to get into. Apex tries to be too much of a shooter game without realizing that it needs to be rewarding to players who in some cases will just spawn in and die instantly.

I dunno about everyone else but the shooting feels like complete shit. Like i'm firing wet noodles. Plus all the autistic ADHD shit like jumping around during gunfights jesus.

movement based shooters will always require more braincells than tactics based shooters.

Actually Apex needs to be even MORE mobile. With some guns that have a hard time of even reaching other players, or even guns that are dogshit when not far away, their needs to be a way to close the distance or even widen the distance. The game should have something like all the characters having rocket-boots that allow them to skate on the ground or walls at high-speeds like in vanquish

Guy's how do I properly use Gibralter's shield and ult?
I never know the best way to apply the shield because not only does it block shots coming in and out, it takes awhile to get out so doing it in the middle of gun fights aint the best idea. I also just straight up forget to use my ult half the time since I keep going some odd hours without finding a single fight.

All the people wanting solo are teenagers

I don't care I want them to ride me and you too, don't lie user

Launched as a stealth throwaway title, so when it actually got popular and had all eyes on it they weren't ready to capitalize on it as quick as they needed to be. They still couldn't fix the crashing issues, the battle pass took to long to come out and it still sucked, and they don't have a big enough design team to pump out skins and other cosmetics. It's hard to say its their fault because I'm sure if they went in expecting to be popular, they would have hit the ground running.

you retarded or something

Gibs normal sheild is absolutely shit and will only protect against the first shotgun blast.

Tactical-shit doesn't work in a battle Royale because someone else can just stay in one house for the entire game like which was PUBG's problem. Battle Royale games either need to be free or have mobile gameplay

Why can't we go back to the good old days of Massive FPS multiplayer like Planetside and MAG? What happened to those games anyway?

No, this fad cant go away until I get my BTOOOM game.

good short term advice if you're thirsty for one win
bad long term advice if you're trying to win a lot

Good advice is to just find someone who will always try to revive you and used your downed body as a sheild. I have won games just because the enemy was distracted by trying to finish me off to actually shoot at my teammates

What went so right?

The battlepass rewards make me not even want to play.

Fortnite allows you to level it up through XP which you get a ton of just by playing, even in the baby mode. Finishing the specific challenges bump it a ton and you can pretty much get to Lv 100 by the 8th week just doing those.

The Apex Pass requires 25,000 XP for every level, and you usually get around 7K for lasting til the very end/pulling off a win.

I was a fucking idiot and thought I'd probably be playing other games through the season so I sprung for the $28 one. EA's jew-ness shone through right away, forcing you to get the $40 pack to have enough, and all of the rewards are abosolute dogshit. Garbage looking skins for weapons, the character skins aren't that great and the skill counters are basically season 1 wins/kills which no one actually gives a shit about.

I actually got a few cooler items from the free apex passes you get in the pass which is baffling. Why wouldn't you make tons of new animated skins for the characters to entice people to buy and play?

they probably spent 90% that on marketing

work on positioning and moving erratically, you can go up and over almost anything
fake people out, go one direction until you're out of their line of sight, then change direction and hit them from somewhere they don't think you'll come from
don't sprint if you're trying to be sneaky its very very loud
know when to advance and when to hang back, if you're between the squad you're shooting and the next ring, hold your ground until they fuck up, they'll come to you eventually
if you down someone or break a sphield, advance,
basically positioning and tactics are just as important, if not more important, than aim, find what works for you and improve upon it

>but she is supposed to be azn
Nope. She is weeb, not asian.

They do, but they are the best players. If you want wins as an average joe you creep around the map and ambush the last 2 teams.

EA stopped paying to streamers.

The vehicles add nothing to games like PUBG and Blops. They just mean the map has to be bigger and emptier.

But they've made close to 100 million

>Bigger and emptier
That is why you need something like Titans which can keep the same size maps but just provide an alternative perspective to them.

That'd be such a completely different game though. I'd play it, it might be good and it could be the worst idea ever, but it's not the game they tried to make. Just because you make titan-something doesn't mean you never get to make a game without titans.

They should give everyone the grappling hook and make a CTF or at least TDM mode.

one-use zips and bounce pads as throwables
actually fuck BR for a minute, build-your-own-bhop-routes CTF might be neat

So what did titans do anyway? Never played titanfall
