This may come as a shock as many considered Pathfinder to be an easy top choice pick since the launch of the game. With online multiplayer games, you always have to be fearful of your favorite character getting nerfed by the weakening of their abilit


Most teams still feel the need to have one member use Lifeline, but that may change as more and more people get used to Loba. There comes a point when healing isn't good enough and teams will need additional abilities Lifeline doesn't have to turn the fight in their fa


Ultimately, it seems bigger thing driving these development teams is a sense of collective duty. It stems from the developers' passion for the game itself, love for their fanbases and deep appreciation for the communities that support their work. Development teams, including the project leaders, designers, writers, marketing teams, and executive leaders, understand they have a responsibility in these difficult times. They inherently recognize they're providing refuge for people who might otherwise be putting themselves in positions to spread a terrible illn


The Rig typically boasts tons of good loot and has a charging station. Rarely will more than one squad choose to land here as it can be a detrimental area depending on the circle progression and zone, which may cause a team to have to push through Capacitor, a much busier area. Still, it’s worth it for the solid loot, plus players can easily push over to the remnants of Relay for even more loot before picking off any squads at Artill


In the world of shotguns, the Peacekeeper has made its mark as a dangerous weapon in the hands of an opponent. Getting into a close-quarters fight with someone accurate with a Peacekeeper will likely result in your untimely dem


Within the gaming community, there are countless examples. The ones mentioned here speak to major, big-budget releases. But even when it comes to indies with small but loyal followings, development teams are hard at work keeping these games fr


Toxicity is nothing new in gaming. But I fail to understand why we should continue to allow this behavior to continue if there’s something we can do to mitigate it and reward those who don’t engage. I’ve had friends uninstall Apex Legends due to frustration with random squadma


A contrarian might suggest these companies are pushing out updates amid a pandemic strictly for the profits. That person might suggest developers are working because they’re afraid to lose their jobs in an uncertain climate. But if those concerns were the only thing driving these development teams, then what would stop the company executives from simply turning to bolder emphasis on microtransactions? Whether you love or hate these in-game monetization options, it's indisputable that microtransactions are sure-fire ways to get people to continue to spend money on ga


Further, this could help balance the lobbies. The theory would be that someone who has gotten "good teammate" accolades has earned the right to not have to squad with potentially toxic teammates. It wouldn’t have to be the case every game, but the "good teammate" would overall have the benefit of playing far fewer games with potentially toxic rand


Not only did Season 5 bring with it a host of new changes, but it also introduced the new legend named Loba. She has a long history with Revenant, as she was the daughter of the man who Revenant killed in his introduction to the g


In games of Apex Legends Ranked guide Legends , I’ve found myself matched with profile names that are blatantly racist (they used workarounds to pass spam filters). Once, the first thing someone said was a sexual comment. I’ve been told I was trash for losing a fight by missing a shotgun shot. Random players frequently separate from their teammates, go AFK in the middle of a fight with no explanation and can be toxic in any number of other w


Out of all of the non-care package sniper rifles in the game, the Longbow is the best of the bunch. Back in Season 3 , it received a rate of fire increase and it hasn't looked back since. In Season 5 the change was made so now the Skullpiercer attachment could be used on it, which greatly increases its headshot dam


Season 5 of Apex Legends introduced major changes to Kings Canyon. With the developers’ choice to demolish Skulltown and Thunderdome, the Respawn team removed two of the hottest Kings Canyon drop locations from the game


Mirage may present himself as a bumbling idiot, but much like Marvel's Deadpool, he's much more capable in battle than he gives off. Some legends like Pathfinder were weakened with the Season 5 update, but Mirage was one of the lucky ones who had an ability overhaul for the bet


The Mastiff has somehow made its way into the regular rotation of weapons, while at the same time retaining most of its incredible strength. It should come as no surprise that with it become more common in battle it has shot up the tier list of weapons in Season 5. Over time don't be surprised if it falls down the tier list as players figure out if its reduction in power hurts its overall usefulness. Either way, it was a bold but welcoming decision to make several of the care package weapons spawn in the overwo
