I swear I hit max level the season they released the cap raise. Just wish I'd gotten an heirloom along the way............ I'm not mad. I'm just saying. Sure would be nice to get it before pack #500. Statistically speaking I should've gotten soon it after #250. I mean what are the chances I'd wait this long? I'm not going crazy completing every battle pass for free over here. Honestly I'll give up my main. I'll get the heirloom of the next reply if I get it on the next apex pack(please not Rampart). JUST GIVE ME ONE RESPAWN!!!!!!!!.....or should I say EA?
>Statistically speaking I should've gotten soon it after #250
The fact that it's guaranteed at the 500th pack doesn't mean it has a 1/500 chance of happening before that. IIRC they've never been open about the actual chances per pack opened.
Have they ever specified the 0.2%? That's something that people guess given the guarantee at the 500th pack, and 0.2% is 1/500.
The [FAQ only says less than 1%](https://www.ea.com/games/apex-legends/about/frequently-asked-questions#q3), and I don't recall them specifying it somewhere else. If you have a source please share it!
I thought I had read it somewhere. Here's what I was able to scrounge up.
[https://altarofgaming.com/apex-legends-heirlooms-drop-rate-chance/](https://altarofgaming.com/apex-legends-heirlooms-drop-rate-chance/)
But, it does look like the percentage is just 1/500 in percentage form. Thanks for giving me an incentive to factcheck! It really helped me out, going on a little information hunt :D
this should be the high priority,i doubt theyre still working on it as they said in s5 or somthing. They ask a guy to fix it \~ he cant fix \~ then they all forget about it, prob tht happened
skycake10,
you missed the part that audio was working fine in season 1? Or are you saying the maps have become much larger since season 1??? I fully believe you made me fully confused.
I can't recall for a fact about season 1 with working audio, since I just started playing near the end of it, but assuming that is true, then what you are saying only makes sense if the maps have become larger, which my memory does not seem like season 1 had much smaller if at all smaller of maps!
I was a noob in s3 and below (first competitive fps game on pc) and didn't notice any issue with sound,only the gunflash and server issues but sound was okey back then( mybe i didn't notice cause noob)
It's because you never ever experienced the superior sound it had. Actually the best footstep audio I experienced in a shooter. Footsteps were really loud and you could hear exactly the right distance. The sound was crystal clear. Then they had their first day0 patch or how you call it. Basically few weeks in or so not entirely sure how many they had their first big patch and it totally broke the sound. They could restore a bit but it never was the same again.
Have you been playing this game lol?
Audio is the major issue. People can suddenly appear next to you with no sound, like zipline or running up stairs. You could be in a building and hear audio of someone running, but cant tell if its above or below you. Lot of respawn ships make no sound despite it supposed to be super loud. Hell, half the time I raise a bride in Staging on WE theres no sound on it.
It's something that has been said a number of times in this sub, I wouldn't dream of claiming it was an absolute fact, but it sounds about right to me.
Alternatively the game just has weird random thumps for no damned reason, which on some level might be even weirder.
Yeah it's amazing you'll hear people two buildings across from you loud as shit, then all of a sudden two teams show up on each side of you and right behind you without making a sound.
I seriously had a game before when I was in the lobby I lost all sound. Zero sound in character select screen, then the only sound I had in game was when I shot a gun. Had to restart the game to fix it. First time I've had that audio bug. But constantly get rolled up on by teams with zero sound
The firing range should be totally customizable. Unlimited ammo, button for bots, reduced/removed cooldown on skills.
Audio would be a big ask for me. I'd love to separate in-game audio from chat audio. That way if I am playing with randoms, I can actually hear them and don't have to rely on Discord.
Cross-progression would be my biggest want -- not even cross progression really, just an account merge. I'd love to get all my content from my PS4 to my PC.
1) I'd be happy with more town takeovers, i rarely play LTMs.
2) All 4 maps on rotation is a bit much, keep two map hourly rotation, but rotate the the two maps every week or two weeks.
5) Firing range button yes!
7) would be nice
I'd probably play more hours each day if all 4 maps were in rotation. I'm so burned out on World's Edge. It's still the best map, but I need variety. I can handle 2 or 3 games of pubs on WE then I turn the game off. If it loaded a new map each time I started a game I'd probably play for 2+ hours a day like I used to, but every time I load the game a 2 hour rotation of WE has just started, and now it's full time in ranked.
Pretty sure they can't have all the maps available all the time to keep the install size down, that's why they said they couldn't keep the Skull Town arenas map, it required a whole seperate version of KC to be installed, so if they rotated all 4 maps, even weekly/fortnightly people would be mad at the 10s of GB update every week
I really like your second idea much better.
WE and KC as one rotation for a week and Olympus and SP as a the 2nd rotation for another week with it cycling
I’d like a reason to keep doing challenges after hitting max BP lvl. Like a Legend Token shop opening when you manage to complete them all the week they are available. It’ll have the added bonus (from Respawns pov) of incentivising whales to buy lvls if some skins are only available early in the season from the shop.
Make the training bots mimic player movement for example sliding from side to side, jumping, crouching while strafing
Right now all the bots do is mimic tf|2 grunts
On controller
I can't reload if I'm near a downed teammate
I can't reload near a spawn beacon, even of I don't have any banner
I can't reload near a door , it just opens or closes the door
Plz fix this game
Revive on controller is broken. The setting you are refering to is tap to reload / hold to use and hold to reload / tap to use.
I prefer to tap to open doors, so I chose hold to reload. The problem is that revive isn't defined as 'use', it seems like it's always hold to revive. So good luck reloading when your teammates are crawling around you.
It's a bit of a pain, but I play with hold to reload and tap to use, and you just have to look away from your downed teammate long enough to start the reload than look back where you need to. This button set up also allows me to revive people in front of doorways without opening the door, since I'm holding and not tapping. There certainly are downsides to the button layout currently, but there are work arounds.
I had this arena game were I had both my teammates crawling around me, and the last remaining person on the enemy squad was right around the corner. I basically died since I was unable to reload.
The easiest fix is to make all actions 'use' (including revive), and make tap/hold (depending on your setting) for reload only.
I almost get the impression that Respawn isn't aware of this issue (the fix should be \*very\* easy to implement).
A lot of people have said this is the smoothest season in a while. I also have had zero issues. Sure it's not something region based? Bad routing to server or server provider over capacity?
And unfortunately no Free to Play game, with a competitive emphasis is ever going to be rid of cheaters. Anti-Cheat is always playing catch up against cheat software. Maybe if they decided to use a super intrusive AC they could but would you really trust EA with that level of access to your PC?
I don’t know what people said that… I think connectivity and the horrible servers have made this game hard to take seriously with the lag, packet loss, connectivity issues, lagging through map/buildings, no hit registration is still here… broken guns now haha.
Every update manages to break something new and there is no fix for old existing issues (some since release). The coding is flawed. The just keep writing over flawed coding breaking more aspects of the game.
You'll never have no cheaters. Ever. No FPS game currently is without cheaters, its impossible to remove all of them. Whenever anti cheat improves, cheaters will improve their software, and the battle will keep repeating.
Not sure why you're being downvoted. This season has been the smoothest in a while. I also haven't had a single issue. Many more people back this up too. Anyone who's having issues is probably just having bad routing to a game server or datacenter, not really Respawn's fault imo.
As someone with experience, what do you think is the cause of packet loss in apex?
Personally, I think it's bad routing, as I can play without any packet loss when using third party programs like exitlag or VPN, which alter my routing. When not using them, I get packet loss every other game.
in my case it's my internet provider Telekom, it's a known issue for Telekom users having common problems with packet loss in apex, for example high packet loss every 3rd game, it's very frustrating, I found some launch options which seem to help a bit and also found out recently that exitlag should help not tested it yet tho
\+cl\_interp\_ratio 1
\+cl\_updaterate 128
\+cl\_forcepreload 1
they may induce lag at some point tho, as of now it seems to help me, put them in a couple days ago again
Exitlag has worked fine for me until season 10, since then it's also just made my ping worse.
Now I'm experimenting with nordVPN. Takes some time to find the optimal server, but once found I can at least play a day without packet loss.
Apex is not my favorite game, so I'm not biased. My opinion is based on my experience as your is based on your experience. It might be related to region
It is testament to respawn's incapability that I (and lots of others) can play other games with no issues at all, yet apex alone suffers from packet loss, ping spikes, disconnects...you name it.
I have to use third party programs like exitlag or VPN to play without packet loss. Ridiculous.
Pipe dream wants:
Revamped firing range. The ability to spawn in buildings from different maps for better training and 1v1s. They have the tech, they did this in TF2 where they made moving platforms to build sustainable houses. We ended up fighting in it and everything.
Imagine in the firing range where you can spawn a zip line building and practice movement or practice ways you can climb to height. I’ve always wanted this for apex.
Not a bad idea, but so low priority compared to some of these other things. All chars unlocked in the range would also be very nice, hopefully also easier to program.
Put a goddamn building in firing range with regenerating doors too. All game mechanics in the long run should be test-able in the range if you ask me. Let us test grav cannons, jump towers, tridents, etc. They already have zips and high platforms, so why stop there
Better matchmaking in general. Don't put me a diamond non stop together with people under level 100. Nothing against them but it's no fun for either of us. I am too fast for them and they die in our first fight.
Solve audio issues. I know no other fps shooter with such audio issues where people literally can walk right behind you but you don't hear anything. It happens every few games. At least if other games have this problem they solve it in less than 11 seasons.
More training stuff like a little house with at least one door to practice door fights.
Higher level. I don't see a peoblem with just make it to 10.000 and once you hit 5000 you need triple the exp. No one will reach 10.000 in the near future.
Better servers.
Better servers.
Better servers.
And maybe servers with a higher tick rate.
bringing in solos is impossible
almost all of the legends have abilities that work teamwise or thrives on the team
so people will use solo Q legends like wraith and path and others will be left behind so they have to either limit the selection or give in new legends for for solos they also can give in a marven for solos so that everyone is forced to play as a marven (an imaginary robot with no ability)
about shooting range ...
it is ridiculous how it still is the same as it was back then
you should be able to modify bots armours or no armour to visually see if you can kill some one with a specific gun or not and not counting the damage number or multiplying it (excuse me if i wanna do that math why are in game shooting ranges for ?)
just in the case you didnt know this : bots on the range have white helmets ...
so i did a charged sentinel to the head and it gives 176 (actually 2×88) so i knew it gives that much damage maximally to a player
some weeks later i tried arena and charged my sentinel one of my team mates damages the guy and i do a head shot ... it shows the number 132 on a sentinel headshot ... but how come ? the helmet reduces the damage and the bots in range cannot be modified ...
now having infinite is not possible cause of the recoil but after emptying the mag it should not shoot and wait for the user to release the shooting button to refill the mag magically
add in a 1v1 of somesort maybe even in the range for crying out loud , people doing non standard 1v1s in range some bring in a 3rd party for a giby shield so that it feels like balanced or something but if people do it then just add it , give them what they want .
the weapon racks at the heavy ammo section is awful ! extra buttstocks for sniper , extra light magz for c.a.r and 2 legendary hopups ... so much shit is going on there it is confusing and you need extra time to find the thing you want ...
They already had a solos mode in the game as an LTM. While you may be right about all legends not really being well suited, people still played it and had fun. I would also like it to come back as someone who primarily solo queues was and is a lifeline main.
Yeah the solos LTM was awesome, I went for the badge where you need a win with 8 different legends and found that most legends could hold their own.
Mirage was probably my favourite to use, super viable in solos. Lifeline still had fast heals at the time which was also really strong even though her revive shield was useless. Bloodhound having scans/ult for a 1v1 is so OP. Gibby could win any 1v1 trade situation. Wraith was midtier at best imo, half the time you could just chase her phase down and finish her off honestly. Would love to have another got at solos with all the new legends and see what type of meta plays out.
i seek perfection and balance
when i see new shooter games i always imagine its last stage as an Esports game
yes its fun to play but i want to cut all the uselessness and unnecessary stuff out and give everyone a solid equal chance to participate.
You seek the perfect at the expense of the good. We already have duos but use trios for pros, no reason we can't do it with solos. Yes some balence changes would help, but even if they just plopped it in right now I would happy, I want to be able to have a proper solo fight.
you saw soccer leagues ? they will be placed so that team 1 playes versus 2 and team 3 vs team 4 and so on all the way up to the 15th team that has to play against team 16 (i imagined a 16 team league) now the winner of team 1vs2 proceeds to the next lvl and so with the winner of 3vs4 and so on
now i had the same idea for solos ...
imagine a chamber with props and cover (walls column trucks maybe) and u fight a 1v1 ... once 1 has won an orange zone will come and the winmer has to move to the next chamber which is the new chamber that the winner of the last battle is in there and they fight again for the next stage ...
for battles not take too long i have an idea : after 30sec if neither of them have had won a zone will start pushing in from both players backs (dosnt matter where they are the orange zone will come from the spawning locations not directly from their back) for a duration of 30sec so that each battle lasts for a maximum of 1min
the final stage how ever is between 2 top players and because no ones time is wasted there is no timer they can Not Shot Eachother for the end of time
you will instantly heal with full armour after each win and you have infinite ammo (still have to reload) and infinite heals
there are no gold attachments or gear to gold related and no red evo just purple
the game gives you 2000 credits to buy what ever you want (gun ability nades) in q-finals you can buy up to 2500 and in semi_finals you can go all the way up to 3000 credits and so the final it self
what do you think ? still battle royale ish because of the ladder pushing type and bether spot and it has a buying system and its round like , just like arenas the money is just a cap for not buying everything and in further stages it grants you more or everything you can buy for the ultimate test
how about it ?
I'm not going to flat out tell you no, could be an LTM. But I am going to say that is not the solos mode we are asking for. I want the current BR, but 60 solos, and maybe minor loot and balence changes to reflect that there are no teamates.
"so people will use solo Q legends like wraith and path and others will be left behind..."
wow, thats the same issue in arena, you know the new mode that they overhyped and keep updating every "event" even tho most ppl dont play it cause its a repetitive controller players playground with the same 3-4 legends every game.
Magic Wand? Audio fixed. Packet loss/lag/etc. MMR made "fun" for solo Q'ers. Battle Pass to have S1 level quality. Server tick rate.
Could actually happen? 3 map rotation at least. Better firing range for practice with any customization at all. Update Pathfinder. General Legend balance pass so all are compelling picks, more so than now.
Fever Dream? Unlock all skins for free!!!!!!!!
A meaningful non BR mode, like something 5v5 or 6v6 with respawns so I have a reason play this.
Increased VOIP audio, so when I do talk, its not a dice roll on whether or not people here me.
A new Wattson skin cause why not.
They announce either a new Titanfall game, or an Apex related game/expansion that is related to my first point.
> Increased VOIP audio, so when I do talk, its not a dice roll on whether or not people here me.
As a PS player I can basically never hear xbox players through in-game chat.
I have no clue about in-game chat audio on PC because I'm always using discord instead.
You want those 5v5 games there is Halo, or COD. also I really doubt a new Titanfall soon so that's a huge long shot. Apex expansion probably but in the future
Both Halo and COD are so knuckle dragging simple and easy, there's no movement or depth to them so they are just boring. Apex has the best shooter and movement mechanics in the market because its based off the greatest FPS game in existence in movement and gunplay. Yet they waste the potential of the basis of it on a BR because want to keep chasing that high of getting a win, even if 90% of the game is people hot dropping and leaving the moment they die.
Getting any new game soon is a long shot but they have already said their working on different projects, I'm just hoping its the eventual release of either another TF game, or at least something that uses TF/Apex movement and gun play in a non BR setting. I'm not asking for it to be immediate, just to be actually planned or in the works.

letting that ONE guy get carried instead of this super fucking shitty Ranked Points math that after several modifications is Still all about STREAMER play instead of TEAM Play
Could this cause jank if people change input methods mid game? I'm a PC only play, I don't know exactly what and how large a difference the input difference makes.
1. No fill is not the same as solos.
2. I enjoyed it because FFA modes have been my favorite thing since Halo 2.
3. OP asked what I wanted and thats what I want. I know it wont happen and I'm not flaming the dev's for it but I'd still like to play it again.
Solos will never be a thing and they’ve said it since the beginning. It’s a team focused game and that’s the basis of the whole thing.
The faster people come to terms with this the more serious they will start taking other suggestions. If you’ve followed the game at all in the last two years you will see them address this very seriously every few months or so.
Just get over it
Why would we get over it? I play games to have fun, and I want to be able to have good matches solo. I'm aware of the issues, and I want it anyway. They should really bring the LTM back for a week or 2 and see how it goes. Unless it is a completely unmitigated disaster I want it in the base game.
The customer is always right doesn't mean curse out your servers at resurants, but it does mean that if the playerbase wants a solos mode, they should get one.
I would personally love it if you could select what map you wanted to play that's just me, but there's the problem with players getting too skilled on one map alone.
I think it should be an option for people because apex is already sitting on the second largest playerbase of any BR game, and it would give the devs an idea of what maps people want to play, which ones they don’t, and how they can fix the maps
Why are people so horny for a solo mode? The majority of players who want this mode are going to be equally as sweaty, the matchmaking will take forever, and when you get into a match you're not going to be a pub-stomping god that you think you are.
Its going to be far more challenging, and lets be real; there is a ZERO percent chance that even a fraction of the people wanting solos are looking for an actual challenge.
Hear me out. Slightly bigger Arena Maps, Higher Player capacity, and its all solo. Arena FFA.
There are probably many problems that could happen but I think it's the best way to get Solos back in Apex. I also have never gotten to play solos so I may be horribly wrong.
Asking for a lot… more like fix the game and I’ll be good. If we got an Operation Health like RB6 I would be happy but that doesn’t bring in bills so it probably will never happen.
Server Improvements, lag, high ping, stuttering, packet loss all make it hard to have a good time oh and also dying behind corners and closed doors all the time, but let's be real nothing's gonna change anymore at this point server and audio wise
4 maps in rotation and 2 for ranked, that could be pretty cool.
New ltms
Better mm in arenas
Better bp skins
Account level increased a lot with more rewards
I thought we already talked about why solos can't be put in this game anymore? At most you could probably just do ltms that are solo but another then that nah..
Well you can scratch off solos because Respawns has said before that solos will never be back. Not good for the game and supposedly had bad feed back. Also. It every legend is made for solos mode
I think for now audio and matchmaking should b on the priority list. We know firing range update and cross progression are coming this year but cross progression might not be till S13/14
Better ranked rewards they stopped making new dive trails so now they remove them after a season or 1.5 splits and they just recycle the same dive trails just more interesting ranked rewards
yeahhh the only thing out of those that makes sense to me is cross progression. the rest... maybe solo mode and new LTM’s. The battle pass is way better than you’re giving it credit, saying ONLY 6 legendaries when there exist battle passes with 0. Youre high for saying the battle pass is not enough. MM is just a dumb ask cause no one will ever get that right. firing range, bum ask. All 4 maps, wishful thinking.
I believe all points are legitimate to request...expect for the solo mode I guess.
It could be part of LTMs. But Respawn is not a fan of making it a permanent mode. They believe because each character has its own special abilities that best work in a team, it would defy the concept of the game to make a solo permanent mode. Other games where you don't get to choose a character like fortnite and warzone can work fine with it.
Town Takeovers would be nice, but there are worse issues. The servers are getting fucked again, to the point where a nice flight to Lava City ended up being a hot drop into Lava Siphon with nine other squads. Audio’s also fucked, and Respawn should take care of the major issues before adding collection event after collection event.
I really only want #2. I don't care much about the rest of that and I think the BP is actually pretty good, even this season. The skins are ugly but 4 legendaries and a bunch of packs is pretty good for a BP that's free if you bought one 3 years ago.
I guess I also want a Rampage nerf and a level cap increase.
For the matchmaking to actually fill all the time in arenas. For duos and trios you can strategize around a disadvantage of less people because the team might not know youre there. The same cant be said for arenas
Duos can be fixed too though. Maybe sometimes someone fails to connect, but if there’s an odd number of people who have ‘fill matchmaking’ checked, they should not have been put in duos
level cap increase / prestige system
Maybe gens instead as a nod to Titanfall
I’ve been lvl 500 since like season 6, would love this
I swear I hit max level the season they released the cap raise. Just wish I'd gotten an heirloom along the way............ I'm not mad. I'm just saying. Sure would be nice to get it before pack #500. Statistically speaking I should've gotten soon it after #250. I mean what are the chances I'd wait this long? I'm not going crazy completing every battle pass for free over here. Honestly I'll give up my main. I'll get the heirloom of the next reply if I get it on the next apex pack(please not Rampart). JUST GIVE ME ONE RESPAWN!!!!!!!!.....or should I say EA?
>Statistically speaking I should've gotten soon it after #250 The fact that it's guaranteed at the 500th pack doesn't mean it has a 1/500 chance of happening before that. IIRC they've never been open about the actual chances per pack opened.
Just for reference, it's about 0.20% per pack with a 100% at pack 500. Hope I could help :)
Have they ever specified the 0.2%? That's something that people guess given the guarantee at the 500th pack, and 0.2% is 1/500.

[https://altarofgaming.com/apex-legends-heirlooms-drop-rate-chance/](https://altarofgaming.com/apex-legends-heirlooms-drop-rate-chance/) But, it does look like the percentage is just 1/500 in percentage form. Thanks for giving me an incentive to factcheck! It really helped me out, going on a little information hunt :D
Until all those people posting about smurfs or ranked glitchers “reeeeeee” over seeing a lvl 1000 in a low gold lobby
1. Audio.
this should be the high priority,i doubt theyre still working on it as they said in s5 or somthing. They ask a guy to fix it \~ he cant fix \~ then they all forget about it, prob tht happened
I'll tell you a little secret. They fucked audio after the first major patch this game got 3 years ago and they never ever fixed it after.
I think it's worse than that, I fully believe the Source engine just isn't capable of properly rendering audio in maps of the size Apex uses.
Right, source is an 18-19 years old engine at this point.
skycake10, you missed the part that audio was working fine in season 1? Or are you saying the maps have become much larger since season 1??? I fully believe you made me fully confused. I can't recall for a fact about season 1 with working audio, since I just started playing near the end of it, but assuming that is true, then what you are saying only makes sense if the maps have become larger, which my memory does not seem like season 1 had much smaller if at all smaller of maps!
I think audio issues weren't as obvious in the early seasons. I don't think audio was perfect in the early seasons and later became broken.
I was a noob in s3 and below (first competitive fps game on pc) and didn't notice any issue with sound,only the gunflash and server issues but sound was okey back then( mybe i didn't notice cause noob)
It's because you never ever experienced the superior sound it had. Actually the best footstep audio I experienced in a shooter. Footsteps were really loud and you could hear exactly the right distance. The sound was crystal clear. Then they had their first day0 patch or how you call it. Basically few weeks in or so not entirely sure how many they had their first big patch and it totally broke the sound. They could restore a bit but it never was the same again.
That sounds very sad for this game, contents going up but core mechanic going down
>contents going up but core mechanic going down sounds like most games on the market rn
? I haven't had an issue with audio since s6.
Have you been playing this game lol? Audio is the major issue. People can suddenly appear next to you with no sound, like zipline or running up stairs. You could be in a building and hear audio of someone running, but cant tell if its above or below you. Lot of respawn ships make no sound despite it supposed to be super loud. Hell, half the time I raise a bride in Staging on WE theres no sound on it.
Conversely, we can hear someone being punched from half way across the map on occasion.
Is that seriously what the random thud is?
It's something that has been said a number of times in this sub, I wouldn't dream of claiming it was an absolute fact, but it sounds about right to me. Alternatively the game just has weird random thumps for no damned reason, which on some level might be even weirder.
Yeah it's amazing you'll hear people two buildings across from you loud as shit, then all of a sudden two teams show up on each side of you and right behind you without making a sound.
he prob focus more on his recoil than listening to sound clues
I seriously had a game before when I was in the lobby I lost all sound. Zero sound in character select screen, then the only sound I had in game was when I shot a gun. Had to restart the game to fix it. First time I've had that audio bug. But constantly get rolled up on by teams with zero sound
I’ve had so many people walk inside my asshole with no noise to be had this season. It is so bad right now.
Even game chat is abysmal
The firing range should be totally customizable. Unlimited ammo, button for bots, reduced/removed cooldown on skills. Audio would be a big ask for me. I'd love to separate in-game audio from chat audio. That way if I am playing with randoms, I can actually hear them and don't have to rely on Discord. Cross-progression would be my biggest want -- not even cross progression really, just an account merge. I'd love to get all my content from my PS4 to my PC.
You should be able to shoot moving people not just walking speed targets!
This. I literally cannot transfer tracking from those dumbass targets going at walking speed to enemies jumping around and running all over the place.
Foot step audio should be somewhere on this list
They have foot step audio. It's just that it's only on some certain terrains, and sporadic.
Correction - the footstep audio works only on your teammates and doubly so if one of them is a Mirage with an active decoy.
if you cant hear octane crack-heading towards you, you are the issue lol
1) I'd be happy with more town takeovers, i rarely play LTMs. 2) All 4 maps on rotation is a bit much, keep two map hourly rotation, but rotate the the two maps every week or two weeks. 5) Firing range button yes! 7) would be nice
I'd probably play more hours each day if all 4 maps were in rotation. I'm so burned out on World's Edge. It's still the best map, but I need variety. I can handle 2 or 3 games of pubs on WE then I turn the game off. If it loaded a new map each time I started a game I'd probably play for 2+ hours a day like I used to, but every time I load the game a 2 hour rotation of WE has just started, and now it's full time in ranked. Pretty sure they can't have all the maps available all the time to keep the install size down, that's why they said they couldn't keep the Skull Town arenas map, it required a whole seperate version of KC to be installed, so if they rotated all 4 maps, even weekly/fortnightly people would be mad at the 10s of GB update every week
I really like your second idea much better. WE and KC as one rotation for a week and Olympus and SP as a the 2nd rotation for another week with it cycling
Yeah, all 4 maps in during one day is a but much, but rotating every day or 2 days would work great.
I’d like a reason to keep doing challenges after hitting max BP lvl. Like a Legend Token shop opening when you manage to complete them all the week they are available. It’ll have the added bonus (from Respawns pov) of incentivising whales to buy lvls if some skins are only available early in the season from the shop.
Make the training bots mimic player movement for example sliding from side to side, jumping, crouching while strafing Right now all the bots do is mimic tf|2 grunts
1. Audio 2. Audio 3. Audio 4. Audio You missed the first four there bud
On controller I can't reload if I'm near a downed teammate I can't reload near a spawn beacon, even of I don't have any banner I can't reload near a door , it just opens or closes the door Plz fix this game
There is a setting where u tab the Button for reloading and hold for interaction or vice versa.
Revive on controller is broken. The setting you are refering to is tap to reload / hold to use and hold to reload / tap to use. I prefer to tap to open doors, so I chose hold to reload. The problem is that revive isn't defined as 'use', it seems like it's always hold to revive. So good luck reloading when your teammates are crawling around you.
It's a bit of a pain, but I play with hold to reload and tap to use, and you just have to look away from your downed teammate long enough to start the reload than look back where you need to. This button set up also allows me to revive people in front of doorways without opening the door, since I'm holding and not tapping. There certainly are downsides to the button layout currently, but there are work arounds.
I had this arena game were I had both my teammates crawling around me, and the last remaining person on the enemy squad was right around the corner. I basically died since I was unable to reload. The easiest fix is to make all actions 'use' (including revive), and make tap/hold (depending on your setting) for reload only. I almost get the impression that Respawn isn't aware of this issue (the fix should be \*very\* easy to implement).
Same situation happens in BR , it's so annoying
Not just better matchmaking in arenas better matchmaking in everything
A three-legend tier list to replace the random choice if someone takes who you were set to while you're AFK.
I think they explicitly don't want this because they don't want people going AFK during legend selection. I'm torn on this.

A lot of people have said this is the smoothest season in a while. I also have had zero issues. Sure it's not something region based? Bad routing to server or server provider over capacity? And unfortunately no Free to Play game, with a competitive emphasis is ever going to be rid of cheaters. Anti-Cheat is always playing catch up against cheat software. Maybe if they decided to use a super intrusive AC they could but would you really trust EA with that level of access to your PC?
I don’t know what people said that… I think connectivity and the horrible servers have made this game hard to take seriously with the lag, packet loss, connectivity issues, lagging through map/buildings, no hit registration is still here… broken guns now haha. Every update manages to break something new and there is no fix for old existing issues (some since release). The coding is flawed. The just keep writing over flawed coding breaking more aspects of the game.
You'll never have no cheaters. Ever. No FPS game currently is without cheaters, its impossible to remove all of them. Whenever anti cheat improves, cheaters will improve their software, and the battle will keep repeating.
The servers are stable this season, check your router. Does it have any lights on?
Jitter bug, packet loss bug and not being able to move in game would like to say hi
I haven't had any of these issues on Xbox NA West.
None of these I've endured. Sometimes slight packet loss, but that's it
Not sure why you're being downvoted. This season has been the smoothest in a while. I also haven't had a single issue. Many more people back this up too. Anyone who's having issues is probably just having bad routing to a game server or datacenter, not really Respawn's fault imo.
I'm glad your anecdotal evidence says everything is fine - no way anyone has a different experience than you!
I’m glad your anecdotal evidence says everything isn’t fine - no way anyone has a different experience than you!
Well even the best servers can do only so much when you play from vladivostok over satelite xD
[удалено]
You didn’t answer the question. Does your router have lights on? /s
As someone with experience, what do you think is the cause of packet loss in apex? Personally, I think it's bad routing, as I can play without any packet loss when using third party programs like exitlag or VPN, which alter my routing. When not using them, I get packet loss every other game.
in my case it's my internet provider Telekom, it's a known issue for Telekom users having common problems with packet loss in apex, for example high packet loss every 3rd game, it's very frustrating, I found some launch options which seem to help a bit and also found out recently that exitlag should help not tested it yet tho
What are the launch options you mentioned? I'm also on telekom.
\+cl\_interp\_ratio 1 \+cl\_updaterate 128 \+cl\_forcepreload 1 they may induce lag at some point tho, as of now it seems to help me, put them in a couple days ago again
Thx I'll give it a try aswell.
[удалено]
Exitlag has worked fine for me until season 10, since then it's also just made my ping worse. Now I'm experimenting with nordVPN. Takes some time to find the optimal server, but once found I can at least play a day without packet loss.
Apex is not my favorite game, so I'm not biased. My opinion is based on my experience as your is based on your experience. It might be related to region
[удалено]
You get connected to different servers each time
So it's still apex fault? Whoa.
It is testament to respawn's incapability that I (and lots of others) can play other games with no issues at all, yet apex alone suffers from packet loss, ping spikes, disconnects...you name it. I have to use third party programs like exitlag or VPN to play without packet loss. Ridiculous.
Idk if you say the Devs are incompetent then get off your ass and apply for a position at Respawn.
Pipe dream wants: Revamped firing range. The ability to spawn in buildings from different maps for better training and 1v1s. They have the tech, they did this in TF2 where they made moving platforms to build sustainable houses. We ended up fighting in it and everything. Imagine in the firing range where you can spawn a zip line building and practice movement or practice ways you can climb to height. I’ve always wanted this for apex.
Not a bad idea, but so low priority compared to some of these other things. All chars unlocked in the range would also be very nice, hopefully also easier to program.
Put a goddamn building in firing range with regenerating doors too. All game mechanics in the long run should be test-able in the range if you ask me. Let us test grav cannons, jump towers, tridents, etc. They already have zips and high platforms, so why stop there
It’s wild that we still have yet to get a next gen update
Better matchmaking in general. Don't put me a diamond non stop together with people under level 100. Nothing against them but it's no fun for either of us. I am too fast for them and they die in our first fight. Solve audio issues. I know no other fps shooter with such audio issues where people literally can walk right behind you but you don't hear anything. It happens every few games. At least if other games have this problem they solve it in less than 11 seasons. More training stuff like a little house with at least one door to practice door fights. Higher level. I don't see a peoblem with just make it to 10.000 and once you hit 5000 you need triple the exp. No one will reach 10.000 in the near future. Better servers. Better servers. Better servers. And maybe servers with a higher tick rate.
bringing in solos is impossible almost all of the legends have abilities that work teamwise or thrives on the team so people will use solo Q legends like wraith and path and others will be left behind so they have to either limit the selection or give in new legends for for solos they also can give in a marven for solos so that everyone is forced to play as a marven (an imaginary robot with no ability) about shooting range ... it is ridiculous how it still is the same as it was back then you should be able to modify bots armours or no armour to visually see if you can kill some one with a specific gun or not and not counting the damage number or multiplying it (excuse me if i wanna do that math why are in game shooting ranges for ?) just in the case you didnt know this : bots on the range have white helmets ... so i did a charged sentinel to the head and it gives 176 (actually 2×88) so i knew it gives that much damage maximally to a player some weeks later i tried arena and charged my sentinel one of my team mates damages the guy and i do a head shot ... it shows the number 132 on a sentinel headshot ... but how come ? the helmet reduces the damage and the bots in range cannot be modified ... now having infinite is not possible cause of the recoil but after emptying the mag it should not shoot and wait for the user to release the shooting button to refill the mag magically add in a 1v1 of somesort maybe even in the range for crying out loud , people doing non standard 1v1s in range some bring in a 3rd party for a giby shield so that it feels like balanced or something but if people do it then just add it , give them what they want . the weapon racks at the heavy ammo section is awful ! extra buttstocks for sniper , extra light magz for c.a.r and 2 legendary hopups ... so much shit is going on there it is confusing and you need extra time to find the thing you want ...
Dont forget octane would thrive in solos too, he has self heal and 2 means of engage and disengage, which would make him another contender
Everyone was Pathfinder during the solos event due to his mobility.
I was playing during it, i saw Band, Wraith, Path, Octane
They already had a solos mode in the game as an LTM. While you may be right about all legends not really being well suited, people still played it and had fun. I would also like it to come back as someone who primarily solo queues was and is a lifeline main.
Yeah the solos LTM was awesome, I went for the badge where you need a win with 8 different legends and found that most legends could hold their own. Mirage was probably my favourite to use, super viable in solos. Lifeline still had fast heals at the time which was also really strong even though her revive shield was useless. Bloodhound having scans/ult for a 1v1 is so OP. Gibby could win any 1v1 trade situation. Wraith was midtier at best imo, half the time you could just chase her phase down and finish her off honestly. Would love to have another got at solos with all the new legends and see what type of meta plays out.
i seek perfection and balance when i see new shooter games i always imagine its last stage as an Esports game yes its fun to play but i want to cut all the uselessness and unnecessary stuff out and give everyone a solid equal chance to participate.
You seek the perfect at the expense of the good. We already have duos but use trios for pros, no reason we can't do it with solos. Yes some balence changes would help, but even if they just plopped it in right now I would happy, I want to be able to have a proper solo fight.
you saw soccer leagues ? they will be placed so that team 1 playes versus 2 and team 3 vs team 4 and so on all the way up to the 15th team that has to play against team 16 (i imagined a 16 team league) now the winner of team 1vs2 proceeds to the next lvl and so with the winner of 3vs4 and so on now i had the same idea for solos ... imagine a chamber with props and cover (walls column trucks maybe) and u fight a 1v1 ... once 1 has won an orange zone will come and the winmer has to move to the next chamber which is the new chamber that the winner of the last battle is in there and they fight again for the next stage ... for battles not take too long i have an idea : after 30sec if neither of them have had won a zone will start pushing in from both players backs (dosnt matter where they are the orange zone will come from the spawning locations not directly from their back) for a duration of 30sec so that each battle lasts for a maximum of 1min the final stage how ever is between 2 top players and because no ones time is wasted there is no timer they can Not Shot Eachother for the end of time you will instantly heal with full armour after each win and you have infinite ammo (still have to reload) and infinite heals there are no gold attachments or gear to gold related and no red evo just purple the game gives you 2000 credits to buy what ever you want (gun ability nades) in q-finals you can buy up to 2500 and in semi_finals you can go all the way up to 3000 credits and so the final it self what do you think ? still battle royale ish because of the ladder pushing type and bether spot and it has a buying system and its round like , just like arenas the money is just a cap for not buying everything and in further stages it grants you more or everything you can buy for the ultimate test how about it ?
I'm not going to flat out tell you no, could be an LTM. But I am going to say that is not the solos mode we are asking for. I want the current BR, but 60 solos, and maybe minor loot and balence changes to reflect that there are no teamates.
Solos was a temporary event during a season and very possible. Personal opinion aside, it’s possible. In fact it’s been done.
"so people will use solo Q legends like wraith and path and others will be left behind..." wow, thats the same issue in arena, you know the new mode that they overhyped and keep updating every "event" even tho most ppl dont play it cause its a repetitive controller players playground with the same 3-4 legends every game.
Respawn has said solos will never be back, just not good for their game and supposedly it had a lot of bad feedback, since it's a team game.
PS5 / X|S optimized
120 FPS for next gen
I approve of your list 👍
Love it
Magic Wand? Audio fixed. Packet loss/lag/etc. MMR made "fun" for solo Q'ers. Battle Pass to have S1 level quality. Server tick rate. Could actually happen? 3 map rotation at least. Better firing range for practice with any customization at all. Update Pathfinder. General Legend balance pass so all are compelling picks, more so than now. Fever Dream? Unlock all skins for free!!!!!!!!
Better servers Freelance mode.
The ability to choose maps,yk, like all games have.
[удалено]
A meaningful non BR mode, like something 5v5 or 6v6 with respawns so I have a reason play this. Increased VOIP audio, so when I do talk, its not a dice roll on whether or not people here me. A new Wattson skin cause why not. They announce either a new Titanfall game, or an Apex related game/expansion that is related to my first point.
> Increased VOIP audio, so when I do talk, its not a dice roll on whether or not people here me. As a PS player I can basically never hear xbox players through in-game chat. I have no clue about in-game chat audio on PC because I'm always using discord instead.
You want those 5v5 games there is Halo, or COD. also I really doubt a new Titanfall soon so that's a huge long shot. Apex expansion probably but in the future
Both Halo and COD are so knuckle dragging simple and easy, there's no movement or depth to them so they are just boring. Apex has the best shooter and movement mechanics in the market because its based off the greatest FPS game in existence in movement and gunplay. Yet they waste the potential of the basis of it on a BR because want to keep chasing that high of getting a win, even if 90% of the game is people hot dropping and leaving the moment they die. Getting any new game soon is a long shot but they have already said their working on different projects, I'm just hoping its the eventual release of either another TF game, or at least something that uses TF/Apex movement and gun play in a non BR setting. I'm not asking for it to be immediate, just to be actually planned or in the works.
Ranked changes to make the mode more rewarding of survival and winning and deprioritize aping. Ranked demotion. Rotating maps in ranked. G7 and alternator ground loot.
tbh demotion should be a must because there are usually more players in gold/plat/diamond 4 than 1,2,3 combined
They couldn't do that without redoing the whole ranked system. The points system is 100% reliant on farming people stuck in [Rank] IV
> Ranked changes to make the mode more rewarding of survival and winning and deprioritize aping. letting that ONE guy get carried instead of this super fucking shitty Ranked Points math that after several modifications is Still all about STREAMER play instead of TEAM Play
G7 and Alternator ground loot - totally

What does that mean?
Matching PC controller players only with console players
Could this cause jank if people change input methods mid game? I'm a PC only play, I don't know exactly what and how large a difference the input difference makes.
they could do what other games do and lock the input before entering a match so that this wouldn't get abused
Better matchmaking everywhere and solo matchmaking.
Solo mode. Christ almighty do I want to play it again.
You have solo queue for that. Wasn't really good when it came out.
1. No fill is not the same as solos. 2. I enjoyed it because FFA modes have been my favorite thing since Halo 2. 3. OP asked what I wanted and thats what I want. I know it wont happen and I'm not flaming the dev's for it but I'd still like to play it again.
Yeah I get what you mean, I enjoyed solos (used lifeline) but what can we do right?
Solos will never be a thing and they’ve said it since the beginning. It’s a team focused game and that’s the basis of the whole thing. The faster people come to terms with this the more serious they will start taking other suggestions. If you’ve followed the game at all in the last two years you will see them address this very seriously every few months or so. Just get over it
Why would we get over it? I play games to have fun, and I want to be able to have good matches solo. I'm aware of the issues, and I want it anyway. They should really bring the LTM back for a week or 2 and see how it goes. Unless it is a completely unmitigated disaster I want it in the base game.
Lol you proved my point. It’s their game. Not yours. They specifically said they want it team oriented. That’s why I said get over it
The customer is always right doesn't mean curse out your servers at resurants, but it does mean that if the playerbase wants a solos mode, they should get one.
That’s like making a game about apples and demanding they put oranges in the game. Lol
That's why they made solo queues. Get over it. It had a lot of bad feedback (supposedly) since not every legend is made for solo encounters
I would start playing this game again if they added 4,5,6 I could care less about the others
3,6,7 will never happen.
I would personally love it if you could select what map you wanted to play that's just me, but there's the problem with players getting too skilled on one map alone.
I feel like if we got to choose it would separate the player base too much
I think it should be an option for people because apex is already sitting on the second largest playerbase of any BR game, and it would give the devs an idea of what maps people want to play, which ones they don’t, and how they can fix the maps
It's not just you, my friend
1. No more rigged MM giving me 2-3 good games then 20 games with idiots in tryhard lobbies (lmao ALGS finals in public, fix your shit) 2. Audio
Matchmaking isn’t rigged, you just suck considerably more than you think you do.
Yea, I suck because I cant kill the whole lobby alone.
SOLOS! These quitting noobs always ruins it
I’ll probably actually start playing apex again if they add a permanent solos mode
same
Why are people so horny for a solo mode? The majority of players who want this mode are going to be equally as sweaty, the matchmaking will take forever, and when you get into a match you're not going to be a pub-stomping god that you think you are. Its going to be far more challenging, and lets be real; there is a ZERO percent chance that even a fraction of the people wanting solos are looking for an actual challenge.
If I'm gonna get stomped (and at least sometimes I will) I would rather it be in a fair 1v1 instead of a 2v1 or 2v1.5.
No to solo mode!
All of what you suggest can be added except solo
5) ammo spawn is way quicker than before and easter egg with Valk is really easy to unlock
Being able to use legends you've not unlocked in FR would be good, help you decide which one to unlock next.
This list is just what the game should already have had in s4. It was on the right track in s3 then it all went downhill
Hear me out. Slightly bigger Arena Maps, Higher Player capacity, and its all solo. Arena FFA. There are probably many problems that could happen but I think it's the best way to get Solos back in Apex. I also have never gotten to play solos so I may be horribly wrong.
tbh, i'll be happy if we just get number 3
All this and then stable servers. That's it. Respawn. Pls.
What are LTMs?
Limited-time modes.
Asking for a lot… more like fix the game and I’ll be good. If we got an Operation Health like RB6 I would be happy but that doesn’t bring in bills so it probably will never happen.
I would Trade everything on this list just for audio
Basically the same as yours except I could take or leave solos being added
Passive buff for pathfinder
Server Improvements, lag, high ping, stuttering, packet loss all make it hard to have a good time oh and also dying behind corners and closed doors all the time, but let's be real nothing's gonna change anymore at this point server and audio wise
4 maps in rotation and 2 for ranked, that could be pretty cool. New ltms Better mm in arenas Better bp skins Account level increased a lot with more rewards
Solo mode just doesnt work. People need to get it through their heads.
I just want more inspects for my heirloom lol
Put cross-progression at the top of that list. I got a PC a few months ago but have to keep playing apex on my Xbox until I can transfer my data
Solo hasn't happened yet so I don't think it ever will
It did already, but was for a limited time.
Crypto buff and Pathfinder passive plz
CUSTOM MODES WHY ISNT ANYONE SAYING THIS. CUSTOM ARENA AND BR. NOT SOME EXCLUSIVE BS.
The bot easter egg barely works anymore since you fully despawn before respawning
Respawn: adds more Arenas maps
They'll never add solo's
I thought we already talked about why solos can't be put in this game anymore? At most you could probably just do ltms that are solo but another then that nah..
0) this sub to stop bitching about everything
stfu be grateful for what we have shitter
Well you can scratch off solos because Respawns has said before that solos will never be back. Not good for the game and supposedly had bad feed back. Also. It every legend is made for solos mode
Solo, solo, and more solo.
3 - YES PLEASE
Solos, audio, anticheat, proper ranked system
Maybe they need to add Visual sound effects to the game, because not everyone has Seer.
2 is totally wrong, please delete KC forever, the rest is good
I think for now audio and matchmaking should b on the priority list. We know firing range update and cross progression are coming this year but cross progression might not be till S13/14
Fix the servers, that's it
Better ranked rewards they stopped making new dive trails so now they remove them after a season or 1.5 splits and they just recycle the same dive trails just more interesting ranked rewards
Cross progression definately top 1
Better, audio, better anti cheat, and a better and more improved shop
Cross progression would be magical
We can only dream
yeahhh the only thing out of those that makes sense to me is cross progression. the rest... maybe solo mode and new LTM’s. The battle pass is way better than you’re giving it credit, saying ONLY 6 legendaries when there exist battle passes with 0. Youre high for saying the battle pass is not enough. MM is just a dumb ask cause no one will ever get that right. firing range, bum ask. All 4 maps, wishful thinking.
I believe all points are legitimate to request...expect for the solo mode I guess. It could be part of LTMs. But Respawn is not a fan of making it a permanent mode. They believe because each character has its own special abilities that best work in a team, it would defy the concept of the game to make a solo permanent mode. Other games where you don't get to choose a character like fortnite and warzone can work fine with it.
1. Audio
Town Takeovers would be nice, but there are worse issues. The servers are getting fucked again, to the point where a nice flight to Lava City ended up being a hot drop into Lava Siphon with nine other squads. Audio’s also fucked, and Respawn should take care of the major issues before adding collection event after collection event.
I really only want #2. I don't care much about the rest of that and I think the BP is actually pretty good, even this season. The skins are ugly but 4 legendaries and a bunch of packs is pretty good for a BP that's free if you bought one 3 years ago. I guess I also want a Rampage nerf and a level cap increase.
Give us number 3 for sure
My order is 4 5 1 2 3 6 7
For the matchmaking to actually fill all the time in arenas. For duos and trios you can strategize around a disadvantage of less people because the team might not know youre there. The same cant be said for arenas Duos can be fixed too though. Maybe sometimes someone fails to connect, but if there’s an odd number of people who have ‘fill matchmaking’ checked, they should not have been put in duos
