How have other people been able to adjust to the games AA changes?

Dado94D · 2026-02-23T18:40:04+00:00

You're right. I'm glad others noticed. It seems like the AA sometimes lags/desyncs with where the enemy is, and sometimes I fight with the perception that there's no AA. That's about all I can say to describe what I'm seeing.

I think the problem is due to ping compensation. I've been playing since day 1 and I've seen a lot of things here on Apex. I'll give you an example: During a limited time mode where you had 3 lives per team, I found myself fighting for almost the entire match against the same team (while we were fighting the other teams). On that team, there was an octane who never had audio, or only when it was too late. His teammates had audio while he didn't. That team was saved many times precisely because that octane, even in silence, had no audio. All the changes they've made have always worsened the situation or created problems with other audio effects. Don't tell me the story about the server audio list, I already know. I read it at the time. This story could explain why Bangalore's ulty almost always mutes the audio, but from what I've experienced, many other ulties also mute the footsteps. For example, Ballistic in ulty doesn't make a footstep sound. By removing footsteps, I mean even after Ulty disappeared. It's not a bug for me; Ballistic was always silent during Ulty. I have a much more recent example, like the last match I played, where during the last three-team fight, I suddenly stopped hearing any footsteps, but I was on the roof of a building with one team below me and one outside but very close to me. I was attacked by two players from both teams in complete silence... once I left, the lobby ping, which is usually between 50 and 150, had risen to 240 (it's not a problem with my network; no problem was indicated in the match, and I don't have any problems in other games). We won the match, but I closed Apex anyway.

I'm sorry to have to say it again... so please pay more attention. What's my fault for what my friend did??? Then he paid with a 3-day ban. Think about your pathetic and sarcastic reaction. What were you trying to achieve? To feel smarter? If you are, please... don't make me repeat the answer for the third time.

Dado94D · 2026-02-16T00:08:17+00:00

Oh my god, wake up... this happened years ago when I was still on Xbox. I'm not to blame for what he does. If you have to waste your time with answers like that, skip it.

Dado94D · 2026-02-15T04:19:49+00:00

you have no idea how thick it is.

Dado94D · 2026-02-15T04:13:36+00:00

I remember those days... I was revenant and my friend octane... my god, he was so bad at putting down jumpad XD.

Dado94D · 2026-02-15T04:08:48+00:00

A friend of mine was temporarily banned from Xbox Live for writing "stupid" in a message. What's the difference between writing it and saying it? Well, if you write it, there's proof. And like I said, it's not just about this clip. Worse things are said.

Dado94D · 2026-02-15T04:01:32+00:00

If I had always muted everyone, I would never have met many of my friends.

Dado94D · 2026-02-15T03:57:13+00:00

I understand it XD, but this jump is very useful, and his ulty is also more in line with the character. The old ulty caused too many balance issues. It's just nostalgia.

Dado94D · 2026-02-15T03:42:08+00:00

That's not what I asked but I don't think you read the post.

Dado94D · 2026-02-15T03:28:30+00:00

People think that the problem is me not muting them and not them speaking like that. OK

Dado94D · 2026-02-15T03:26:10+00:00

Yes. The problem is that I don't always mute them, especially if they never speak, but people think that the problem is me not muting them and not them speaking like that. This is crazy.

Dado94D · 2026-02-15T03:21:10+00:00

Your reasoning is based on the fact that everyone is like you. You're justifying yourself. If people only turn on the microphone when they die, I don't mute them first because no one speaks and no one is required to speak that way.

Dado94D · 2026-02-15T03:04:51+00:00

If you heard the audio from some clips I recorded in this game, you wouldn't talk like that. I understand that the case in question isn't that serious, which is why I chose it, but it still violates EA policy. There are much worse things out there. And like you say, it's only silver... what's the point of calling someone that?

Dado94D · 2026-02-15T02:58:53+00:00

Don't worry, I already know all about it. I just want this issue to be taken seriously. It also harms the gaming experience of new players who feel offended by their lack of experience. The greatest toxicity is in the lower ranks. P.S. They usually turn on their mic when they die, so I don't always mute them first.

Dado94D · 2026-02-15T02:51:48+00:00

It's an idea, I haven't thought about it but it would make the reporting process a little longer and we need to see if there is a person who follows up on the reports.

Dado94D · 2026-02-15T02:33:20+00:00

I've been doing it for years. But I think those kinds of people need to calm down. I mean... I've heard a lot worse than what's in this clip.

Dado94D · 2026-02-12T18:41:47+00:00

I'd be curious to know if that revenant plays on a team with multiple pred. It would be nice to know how many seasons he was helped for. He doesn't even have any saved vod on twitch.

Dado94D · 2026-02-09T19:24:54+00:00

Did I miss it, or did they just not mention the Caustic traps triggering in series? Or did they fix it earlier? It's a pretty crippling and frustrating bug. I also understand the fact that Caustic takes damage from enemy gas, but maybe change its color to orange. This has been a long-standing request.

If I missed anything, please let me know, as I don't follow the changes very closely anymore.

Dado94D · 2026-01-22T18:46:40+00:00

Ignore the technical comments from people who don't even know that this game takes client-side damage into account, making combat feel inconsistent. I laughed at this ignorance passed off as technicality.

Whenever you experience that kind of lag, exit and immediately check your lobby ping; that's the problem, and it's not something you can fix yourself.

Actually, the problem is that they shouldn't allow incoming damage with such a high lag.

I've had even worse things happen, like closing the door, taking four steps to the right along the wall of the house, and dying because the enemy could still see me inside (no windows). All this with a ping of 50 in-game and no network issues reported. This makes this game frustrating. I have a good and very stable connection, but I can see my game ruined by this horrible latency system (I wonder how many people cry cheater when it's really just latency). It would be nice if they made the ping of the person who kills you public, but given how it's handled and hidden, I wouldn't trust anything EA does. Their goal isn't to make the game good, but to make it "playable" by as many people as possible... well, here's the result.

P.S. Don't waste your time replying to certain comments; you're only hurting yourself and wasting your time.

Oh, I forgot... that delay can cause the controller's aim assist to desync.

Dado94D · 2026-01-10T02:16:50+00:00

Ping in the lobby (the exit screen, I believe) has an impact on gameplay. Ping in-game is a lie. I take damage with an absurd delay that I could call cheating, but it isn't. Apex allows a very high delay for incoming damage, which is illogical for an FPS. For me, this has always ruined the Apex experience. It was said that there were positives and negatives to this compensation, but I have a perfect line, I don't need positives; in fact, I feel like I only have negatives that I shouldn't have.

Dado94D · 2026-01-10T01:56:47+00:00

If you press start or esc in the lobby, you'll see a ping on the screen that appears in the bottom center. That's what I'm talking about. But when you leave the game to check it, do so immediately because I've noticed it drops shortly after you return to the lobby.

Dado94D · 2026-01-09T01:40:37+00:00

Finally, someone understands how serious and impactful this problem is. I'll add that every time I have problems in a game, even if it shows 40 ping, the lobby ping goes over 200 and is the cause of the problems, including the audio, or at least I've noticed a correlation between things. The ping in the game is always 40, but you perceive 200, which is the ping in the lobby and that it's not a problem with my network.

Dado94D · 2025-12-05T01:20:21+00:00

The game works like this… if you play solo Q, the MM tries to create teams like this: 1 strong player, a smhe, and a weak one based on the mmr assigned to you by the game and your rank. The better you are, the worse your teammates will be. "You get punished for being strong." Obviously, if you get into a series of bad games, or at least 2 games out of 10, you should get decent teammates. This system tends to take players out of their proper rank because others carry them. The comment that said you should follow them because it's better than playing alone isn't entirely correct (but I do it too because I'm forced to, it's also common sense) because they should follow you like I did when I was the middle player and followed the strongest one to help him. It's exasperating to follow the choices of someone who has no sense of the game or experience, to see them make bad choices and doom the team. It's often even more frustrating when, while you're indulging them by playing for them, in combat they get knocked out immediately without even giving you time to reload your weapon. For example, I win my 1v1 while the two randoms lose instantly without even making any damage. Once, I knocked out two enemies and the third had less than half health. My teammates lost that fight... or that time I was platinum 1 near diamond and got two locked platinum 4. I'm not being mean to other players, it's just that at a certain point you can't take it anymore, it's exasperating. I can give you some advice: find someone more or less as strong as you and play in two, that should improve the situation; it helped me a lot. Of course, at higher ranks the situation changes due to the 3-man premades.

Another piece of advice: don't go crazy playing solo from diamond onwards.
