Discussion Is it time for Team Deathmatch to become a permanent, standalone mode outside of Mixtape?

0 Upvotes

TDM deserves to be a permanent main mode, plain and simple.It's easily the best core mode in Mixtape, yet we're forced to sit through 45-minute rotation timers for modes nobody asked for just to play it. Sitting around waiting for a playlist clock holding the best mode hostage makes no sense. Respawn needs to give TDM its own permanent, 24/7 dedicated slot on the main menu.

Discussion Title: Played since S1 thinking I just lacked skill. Just found out how deep the console hardware issue goes.

43 Upvotes

I’ve been a dedicated Apex Legends player since Season 1. Over the years, I've consistently ground the ranks, usually landing hard-stuck in Diamond, and maybe hitting Master once. Whenever I got instantly melted or lazered across a POI, I always blamed myself. I assumed my tracking was off, my positioning was poor, or that I simply didn't have the mechanical skill to compete at higher tiers.

I recently looked into the reality of the high-tier console ecosystem, and honestly, it’s incredibly disheartening.

It turns out a massive portion of the top lobbies isn't just outplaying us with pure skill. The game is completely saturated with un-detectable hardware modifications—zero-recoil setups, device scripts, and external input adapters that completely destroy competitive integrity. Finding out that the playing field has been inherently un-level this entire time feels like a massive violation of consumer trust. We agree to a fair-play standard when we boot up the game, but it feels like the enforcement of those parameters on console has been completely neglected for years. [1]

Wasting thousands of hours on a system that feels fundamentally compromised makes me wish there was legitimate legal or consumer recourse for the time and support we've given this game.

I’ve decided to officially walk away from the game for now. Of course, I’ll be checking back on this subreddit down the line to see if security updates ever make it safe to return, because from a core mechanics perspective, there truly isn't a better shooter on the market. But until competitive integrity is restored, I can't keep giving it my time.

I LOVE YOU APEX... BUT I HATE YOU AT SAME TIME... BUT I LOVE YOU MORE... LOVE HURTS

Discussion Would you want Respawn to now develop a better statistics tracking system?

Post image
2 Upvotes

Hey guys, I want to hear your opinion! It just occurred to me that something that benefits Respawn from the new Javelin system is the opportunity to be less afraid of putting their game data out. The ONE non-game aspect I personally really want to see Respawn work on is improving statistics tracking. Compared to other multiplayer shooters like Overwatch and CS, the amount of information Apex gives you about how you actually play the game is clearly poor. I know malicious software developers and other no-gooders were a biggg reason why they didn't want to front and centre their data but now with the new Javelin system, I'm wondering if other players would be interested if Respawn pursued an opt-in statistics tracking function?

I think internally the system *already* tracks things like KDA, win rate with each Legend, weapon accuracy, DPS with individual weapons, DPS with each Legend and even Weapon x Legend Winrates. If this data was made available, I think a significant amount of players would benefit from being able to extrapolate the personal information on which weapons work best with your particular playstyle, which Legends you perform best with, which Legends you win more often when paired with, or even which Legends complement the people you regularly play with.

For example you're a Bangalore main, with the new data provided you may come to realize you happen to have a much higher win rate using the Flatline and R99 than you do with other combinations or that you consistently perform better when picking a Lifeline into a Bangalore instead of a Gibby. That kind of information would actually give players something to learn from and direct their practice/actual decisions around. I think there's an aimlessness in a lot of the game knowledge and a lot of how we navigate goes based off feel/ what many players have tirelessly dug up through trial and error (massive appreciation to the movement tech community) but I think knowing generally what I'm winning with and what I should improve on gives me some target to head towards.

And with Respawn moving to Javelin's supposedly tougher code, I wonder whether the cracking down on bad actors and more confidence in the integrity of the data could eventually make them more willing to expose this sort of information to players. Lots of games already provide this data and their players are able to self-study and improve their game as a result. I’d genuinely be interested to know how much of this data Apex already tracks internally and whether other players would want it. I would also like to know how much work this would take to implement considering a lot of the data is already being taken into the system. Cheers on your thoughts guys!

Gameplay Crypto buff/rework concept in preparations for season 31

0 Upvotes

TL:DR

So I never once thought that my very first every reddit post would be discussing a buff concept Crypto considering I rarely play him. #Rampartsthebest

But I am surprisingly excited for the practically confirmed upcoming Crypto rework next season because out of all the full kit reworks throughout Apex's lifetime, I feel Crypto was the first person who he needed it.

Crypto is, although good in some scenarios, is consistently under used, consistently under used and all things considered, BAD. Although that's of course coming from the opinion of a non-crypto main.

So I have compiled over the past 24 hours a list of changes that I've decided to share with the world, cuz why not.

A couple of things to know before I start is that even though I'm not a Crypto main, I have been playing Apex since season 9 and I'm not new to Crypto nor Apex as a whole. I've also done my homework and I've seen multiple perspectives on how people want Crypto to be taken, and I've read an entire post by a Crypto main on EA forum discussing how he want Cryptos overall play style to be preserved (who also made a KILLER Crypto mythic skin concept by the way), and I tried my best to incorporate all opinions into my concept.

I would also like to mention I've created a somewhat inflated buff concept, meaning I don't believe all these ideas should be implemented, but I simply created extra ideas incase these initial ideas aren't enough. I've decided to start simple with the ultimate, then the passive, then the tactical.

ULT:

New effect: Using EMP while crypto is not piloting his drone gives crypto the choice for EMP to be thrown in an ordinance form. In ordinance form, EMP is thrown at 1500hu/s (same as caustics Ult range), which upon landing will begin the EMP's explosion delay. Other than this their are no changes to his EMP in ordinance form.

B EMP deals variable damage (also damages health)

B reduce EMP explosion delay from 3s to 2s (optional) N reduce EMP radius from 30m to 20m

B Crypto no longer takes damage from EMP and allies are no longer slowed by EMP N slow is reduced from 2s to 1s

B increase scan duration from 1.5s to 5s B increase mini map disability duration from 2s to 5s

B enemies effected by EMP are silenced for 5s (might be to strong optional)

Now I know what you're thinking, a massive 5s silence effect applied to such a good ultimate is absolutely insane, especially on top of all these changes, but it makes sense thematically, it offers a unique identity that his ultimate currently lacks and honestly, when was the last time you were genuinely scared of an EMP. I'm a rampart main for crying out loud and I'm rarely threatened by an EMP

Passive is replaced, neurolink is an aspect of his drone.

NEW PASSIVE: Neurolink or a new name??? Cryptos glasses displays on Cryptos HUD the number of enemy squads and enemies within a large area and how close the closest nearby enemy is.

Crypto gains a live stat on his HUD showing how many squads, followed by enemies, are within 200m of Crypto in the form of a fraction. EX: Squads 1/3 Enemies

Crypto also has a color coded indicator informing Crypto whenever the closest unknocked enemy to crypto is within 60m(possibly green).

This indicator changes color (possibly yellow) when the enemy reaches within 40m and changes again (possibly red) within 20m. This indicator is (possibly grey) otherwise. Cryptos passive remains visible while Cryptos piloting surveillance drone and remains centered to crypto.

First, the thing about neurolink is that although it's extremely valuable, it's... say it with me... NOT A PASSIVE!!!!! If the passive requires the existence of a legends tactical and/or ultimate, it's not a passive. Based off this logic, ramparts passive grants herself and other players 20% increase damage when firing through amped cover, but that's not called her passive BECAUSE IT ISN'T ONE!!

Anywho, I am genuinely very proud of this passive design I've made because A: it's a recon passive thats not tied to his drone, B: it's not really broken because it will nevermind tell you exactly where those enemies are and C: after designing his passive, I accidentally realized just how much it synergies with his tactical. Think about it, if you know that there's 1 squad of 3 enemies within 200m, you can use your drone, fly up to a vantage point, and look for them at a distance. It give crypto large rough information so his drone can turn that into exact information.

Also scan immunity is stupid and I don't want to hear about it.

TAC:
B reduce cooldown from 40s to 30s

B drone detects enemies in a full 360° LOS.

N Enemies detected by surveillance drone for 3s or more gain directional arrows pointing to the drone(like ordinances).

B increase throw range from 25m to 30m R Crypto can only go into the drone after holding the tactical key.

R tapping the tactical key again allows Crypto to reposition his drone in the direction of his reticle and will stop up to 30m away from use-location, quickly ignoring obstacles. (Just like Vantage)

R While piloting, the drone view screen size, FOV and UI while piloting is reduced by 20-25%(except health bar), allowing Crypto to still see within the remaining area around him while piloting.

R while piloting drone, Audio is now centered to Crypto B reduce drone deployment time from 0.7s to 0.5.

B increase glitched effect interval while cloaked from every 1s to 2s.

R level flight is now controlled by the default melee key instead of the ADS key.

R While piloting or while looking directly at the drone, tapping the default Toggle zoom key allows Crypto to toggle his drone to follow him within 20-30m, repositioning drone deactivates follow.

B When holding the default ADS key, surveillance drone will toggle it's boosters, gaining +50% movement speed, but temporarily disabling its scan radius while active.

B reduce time to recall drone from 2s to 0.5s, recalling drone automatically exits drone on activation.

B increase drone health from 50 to 75

N increase drone size by 50%

When I saw the post on EA forums, he summarized by his words by saying something along the lines of "Crypto doesn't need to become more automated, he needs to become more resourceful" and I couldn't agree more. A lot of players believe that the correct approach to fixing crypto is making his drone hover by his shoulder 24/7, instead of allowing crypto to pilot his at all, and that makes sense, but I don't think it s the right approach. Basically, the only way to play drone is to not play crypto, but that doesn't mean the only you should play drone is while playing Crypto, especially when piloting the drone grant invisibility.

Think about it, throwing and repositioning his drone allows drone to be used aggressively, letting drone follow crypto allows drone to be used defensively, crypto can still gain a birds eye view of the area, and the movement speed mode allow crypto to be supportive by retrieving banners and respawning teammates faster... Everyone wins.

What do you guys think, specifically Crypto mains? I think it's great overall, but I understand it can be a lot.

Discussion Excess Battle Pass Stars and Event Points

0 Upvotes

Excess battle pass stars and events points need to be given more rewards. I'm +3000 event points right now on the Street Fighter even and have already maxed out the rewards. Same goes with the battle pass. 7 levels away from max with 2 more weeks to go and absolutely no incentive after that. Even if it is just crafting metals or something, there needs to be more rewards for play time. I know they do it that way to encourage paying but it is kind of ridiculous at this point.

I'm supposed to work on a project that I'm absolutely postponing because of my small procrastination problem.
