As far as weapons, it can be hard to know whether to choose to run with a long-range sniper rifle or a short-distance shotgun before a player hops into battle, so it’s important for a player to know their own strengths and weaknesses with each weapon type as well. A weapon like a G7 Scout can serve both purposes as a player can affix a sniper scope for longer distances or use iron sights for better targeting at range. Many players have success using scope-free sniper rifles Longbows and Triple Takes at close range as w

The kindest way to describe the current state of Apex Legends is that it has destroyed its own potential in its pending death by a thousand cuts. One indicator of a game’s popularity is its viewership numbers on Twitch , which tell a story of how interested people are in watching the game’s content. Although not representative exactly of the number of players in the game, we can see a steady decline over the past six mon

Apex Legends ‘ third season makes up the game’s biggest batch of new content to date, definitively upping the ante with leading competitors like Fortnite . It features a new weapon, more loot, a new Legend, and perhaps most important of all, a brand new map to fight on. Entitled «World’s Edge,» this incredibly varied and dynamic locale features battlegrounds ranging from frozen cities to scorching lava flows within a stone’s throw from one another. It’s definitely a sight to

That said, if a player is confident in the team’s ability to aim and critically hit its opposition, getting as high as possible and taking advantage of environmental elements such as rock formations and plants that give cover is a strong way to counter a mountaintop camper. A Kraber is the ideal weapon in this situation, but both the Longbow with the Skullpiercer and the Triple Take with the Precision Choke are effective as w

Another idea relates back to the reason for the hack itself. Because the original hack gave Crypto a way to determine a character’s win odds in any ps5 game guide, it’s possible that the security breach required the team to move the games due to the corrupted sys

Apex Legends began with great promise, but its overall disregard for its consumer base started with bland cosmetic rewards and is currently represented by manipulative loot box mechanics. The progression tends to make one imagine their primary concern is getting as much money from their players as possible, rather than providing a quality experience and earning revenue through grateful play

As you would expect for someone who was experimented on at length and came out the other side with extremely powerful abilities, Wraith has almost zero memories about her life before she entered experimentation. Since she doesn’t remember anything from her childhood it’s hard for people who enjoy the character to know anything about her. Luckily the new animated short provided additional information, and maybe Respawn Entertainment will do even more for her in the fut

One of the problems with competing against Fortnite is that players expect similar value for their consumer dollar. While the game is free-to-play, many players spend on cosmetic items to support the develo

There are few benefits from being exposed on lower ground, so if there’s a chance to push, the best bet is to push to take over the high-ground position rather than trying to take the fight from below. This may mean following the opponent’s zip line, having a team’s Pathfinder throw its own zip line or climbing on ledges as quickly — and stealthy — as possi

Having the incredibly charming and downright terrifying Hannibal Lector roaming an insane asylum or decrepit mansion would be terrifying especially if he wore his iconic face mask. Having those familiar tunes of Goldberg Variations to classical pieces would make for a chilling atmosph

With the announcement of the Iron Crown Packs, players seem to have hit their limit of consumer exploitation. As a limited-time event, players only have a small window to collect that cosmetics that they may want, of which there are 24. Each player can complete a set of tasks to be awarded two of these packs, but the remainder cost about $7 each in real mo

Wraith is one of the more mysterious characters as her life story isn’t outwardly explained. Everyone knows that she was experimented on and has some crazy abilities. Little is known about her, but surprisingly a little bit about her life before she became a voidwalker came to light. Her real name is Renee Blasley, which is pretty vanilla and uninteresting. Renee isn’t a name you hear too often but is usually associated with older women. It will be neat to see if more of her previous life unfolds in the fut

Most problematic was that the Battle Pass lacked the creative challenges seen in Fortnite , which make acquiring tiers quick and fun. This meant that, in Apex Legends , the only way to level up was to play the game over and over again with no specific plan in mind. The grind was real, the rewards were unappealing, so few bothered to continue as a res
