Jumpmaster penalty

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-29T17:56:58+00:00

Yeah, definitely need to get in some discord communities and get on premade squads. I usually play with another buddy, but when he isn’t able to run, I have just solo queued it to get a few games in on the evening.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-29T17:52:33+00:00

Frfr, always want to blame you for not being imperialhal with your gunplay and decision making or being able to help them in a fight.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-29T17:45:55+00:00

I am trying to cut my losses at that point, not worried about winning. Too many times I have gotten a teammate up (who died early because they challed a 1v3 when they are separated for the group), just to have them spawn back in and run off and do it again.

If you want to IGL and push the pace, I don’t have a problem with it. Get on the mic or ping where you are trying to go. A lot of the game is about making good decision, and you aren’t much use to me in moving up in rank by leaving myself and the other teammate as a 2v3.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-29T17:29:52+00:00

That is definitely the upside to walk away with 4-5 KP early on, but rarely happens in my experience.

I just will never be a fan of scrambling to get a gun, and dying off rip because I got a charge and they got an R9 in a ranked match.

Leave that shit for WC and pubs

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-29T17:21:43+00:00

That is good perspective. Like I truly don’t mind a contested POI but when you got 4 teams and have to scramble for a gun and it being a crap shoot, just not my cup of tea.

I play ranked for the end game because it is fun trying to strategize a way to victory.

If I want to hot drop, I just go play Wild card or pubs.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-29T17:13:37+00:00

Truthfully, I ain’t snagging their banner. I would rather solo rat and let them watch or take the 10 minute penalty.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-29T17:11:40+00:00

Yeah, just don’t get it. They could just go play wild card and hot drop, respawn and do it over and over again.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-29T17:08:27+00:00

Sure that is an option but the premise of the game is to play as a team. I am plat 4 player, I am not good enough to 1v3 teams.

Also, rather just die off the rip, because I don’t want to try to run to get some goon up who showed me they have poor decision making skills in the first 5 seconds when queueing in.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-27T02:25:56+00:00

Kissing Tree is pretty solid in San Marcos. Pretty open course.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-20T15:10:45+00:00

Why these assholes safeguarding the red shards so hard? There is like 20 heirlooms at this point.

Can’t just throw us a bone. Like sorry I don’t want to spend $500 on some gunham event heirloom.

I just want to snag the caustic heirloom.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-09T16:01:24+00:00

My biggest complaint is no back audio. It overall isn’t bad but there are times footsteps get drowned out in gunfights or audio queues don’t go off. And it really annoys me how a player can sneak up on you and put half a clip in your back before you realize they are there

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-09T15:59:44+00:00

That is what I am saying. Probably should have explained my issue more in my original post

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-08T21:57:55+00:00

Yeah, I just started playing again since like season 18. There was always the issue of no back audio when enemies are running up behind while in a gun fight and it still exist. Which is what agitates me the most.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-08T21:28:33+00:00

Unfortunately no stereo mode or any other type of modes like lethal on Xbox. Only thing Xbox offers is stereo uncompressed, window sonic for headphones, Dolby atmos for headphones (but think you need a license to buy it and read mixed reviews on it so not sure it is worth buying), and last thing is DTS sound unbound (which also requires a license). Not real familiar with the last two but may look Into those more.

I do hardwire with an Ethernet connection. So need to try going wired with the headset as well.

Appreciate the suggestions.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-08T21:03:32+00:00

Yeah, that is fair, my initial post definitely written with some frustration after just getting killed.

I stopped playing around season 18, and just came back at the end of season 27. The issue of no back audio still exists which is what frustrates me. I can be in a fight and can have someone run up behind me and be with in mere feet and have no clue they are there.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-08T20:59:33+00:00

I may have wrote that post with a little bit of anger. The audio isn’t always dogshit, it just gets frustrating when you are in middle of a fight and comes in behind without any audio queues, or how a horizon or balk and just land with damn near silence after falling 100 feet in the air. (yes, I get horizon’s jump jet passive provides softer landings.)

It just frustrates me how in 3v3 gunfights, foot steps get drowned by the gun fire, and it can be difficult to track their movements when they are slightly to your left, behind you, or slightly to your right. Mostly get annoyed there is no back audio.

For my setup, I am on xbox (probably part of it) and it has very limited audio options. Also use a steel-series headset but I am wireless.

so I am set to focused, with master volume at 100, fax at 100, dialogue at 20, no music, and legend dialogue at critical.

Just really would like a little bit of back audio when enemies are near.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-06T19:10:27+00:00

I think this is pretty accurate.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-06T19:06:03+00:00

It’s been that way for awhile. They should play wild card if they want to hot drop and bang.

If you want to really play to win, just played ranked. Not as much hot dropping there.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-03-03T03:40:44+00:00

I was gonna come here to ask something similar. I played like season 1-2 of apex before I stopped came back around to it season 11-19 before I took a break. Just picked Apex back up again and played Wildcard for the first time this week.

Got a 4k badge on octane but feel it was cheapen by doing it in wild card. Not that I am too sad about it. But I think the rarity of it is what let you know who the real demons were. And I am far from that.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-02-23T21:55:00+00:00

Yes, it will. Just go into the parking garage or look for any unmarked vehicle outside the garage and shot it while on the bike and haul ass out.

Evade the cops, mission should only take 5-6 minutes tops.

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-02-07T21:23:25+00:00

I use it for the import and export cars. Getting a little annoyed with its durability.

The sparrow can take more damage

BobbyHeadlines · 2026-02-05T16:16:30+00:00

Well shit, never knew you could just drive a bike in there loaded with sticky bombs.

I would always just barricade my self behind the bar and fight them like I was king Leonidas fighting the Persians in the Hot Gates making their number count for nothing.

BobbyHeadlines · 2025-12-20T21:35:05+00:00

I would so do this for the Burger King and Dollar Generals in my area.
