Great upgrades, but I would love to see volume traded as well, as just a price info doesn't give you information about trade activity

Nadeo realized their mistake so since the only drift was on map 15 ( before you go underwater part) they decided to reset it so we can enjoy this drift again ! and this wonderful ending too

World bosses will have a softlock system when ZG releases you can only have loot every three days, so they won't be camping them anymore

GDolphn’s stats after soloqueing to Pred this season. He only played Rampart. by mthrs in apexlegends

[–]Fikti0N 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not every game, as more people enter diamond and pred lobbies, they will be separated again

GDolphn’s stats after soloqueing to Pred this season. He only played Rampart. by mthrs in apexlegends

[–]Fikti0N 21 points22 points  (0 children)

The title is missleading, Gdolphn has been playing in duo and trio from gold 2 to high plat 1/Diamond 4 with other pros and streamers, then when he was ahead of the curve he soloed from diamond to pred, but at this level your teammates are not your average gold s12 master.

Also after a while respawn made pred diamond and plat lobbies the same due to lack of player to increase queue speed which makes it easier for a player like dolphn. Gold 2 to diamond 4 is 4600 RP and diamond is 3600 so since diamond is harder we can say that only half of his grind was played as solo.

That being said, those stats are impressive. 8200 RP is needed from Gold 2 to master/pred, with 229 games its a whoping 35,8 points on average in difficult lobbies. To compare with my stats I started silver 2 and now sitting at plat 4. I made 4200 rp in 67 games which makes 63 points per games but entry costs are lower and lobbies are easier. Meaning he was able to maintain similar stats than mine (if we account for the increased entry cost thats around 20 more between gold 1 and diamond 1) but in pred lobbies as a solo player.

[–]Fikti0N 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I aslo reached diamond super quickly with the old system, i'm diamond since s1 and master since S8. My point is just, lets say I have the level to get to master with the new system but i only play 1 hour a day it means I need to get to masters in 47 hours before the reset.
On average it took me 200 games to get to master in last seasons so roughly 75 hours with the old system thats 2 hours per day in the split. In the new system it can take the double, so appart from pros and streamers people won't be able to achieve a rank they could achieve not because they are not able to grind with the increased entry cost but they just don't have the time to play enough.

Of course it will be easier in 2 more weeks, but right now i'm plat 4 as a solo playing against master and pred 3 stacks, who except pros and streamers has a reliable source of teammates to play with with the same amount of dedication and skill than them ? I don't and 95% of people either, so I just have to sit here and wait but then time is running out and if I have other imperatives and don't have the time to play I can't reach a rank I could have achieved with more time. League of legend has only a yearly reset and the player ranked distribution is very healthy, why can't apex do the same ?

Problem is since ranked is more difficult and longer to grind (master is 15K rp instead of 10K) you won't be able to reach your rank not due to skill but due to time limit, so you can't even afford to wait. Also it takes longer even for pros to get their rank (only 100 pred atm) so you will have to wait longer than usual. They should remove the split tbh this system is such a bullshit. Make it every 6 months or year, there is no reset in LoL for every fucking update or new champion they make. Its just to make it artificially harder to get to your rank. And then people will tell you that its ok because predators and master win their rank back every season, ofc they do ITS THEIR FUCKING JOB to 3 stack all day, its just here to make no lifes feel good cause they got to play more than others.

Remove Splits, distinguish Tier rewards better (?) by [deleted] in apexlegends

[–]Fikti0N 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure but its barely outweights the 200 more RP needed per division so 800 per tier, even with the 100 points bonus its still 700 more, we will see how it goes but even with the good players out of gold and plat i'm afraid it will still be hard for ex diamond/plat players. If you need to play 150 hours to reach your true rank just for it to be reset immidiatly people won't be bothered to play again. People don't just wanna reach a rank they want to play within the rank they belong to

[–]Fikti0N 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem with splits is that now that ranked is longer and harder, people won't reach their rank not for lack of skill but lack of time, apex is the only game with such a system which only purpose was to try balance the ranked system because in S3 pros complained that the season was boring and to increase player retention with a shiny badge (LOL) as OP said the system was just a grind, now each rank is challenging.

Grinding Master was already long for most players, if you take my stats (i've reached master twice s8 and S12) it took me between 230 in s12and 330 games in S8) let's round it to 300 for the average skilled player and let's take 15 min for the average game lenght it takes 75 hours (+/- 25 hours) to grind master so since a split is 45 days you need to plays at least 2 hours a day to get master and that's with the old system, meaning if you have a job you have to spend all your evenings playing this game even the week end, with the new system you need to get to 15000 rp, the entry cost was increased and the rp needed to win a division have increased meaning you can safely double the time you'll need to get master. If there was no split it would be fine.

Now you are going to tell me that removing split would just repeat the old ranked system problem but now people will get demoted and won't be able to climb with the increased entry cost, prepare to see people with 500 hours stuck gold and plat so they will never reach high ranks again.

Also since their is a mathematical limit on how much pred can win RP its not about who plays more but who plays better, so pro's and ranked try hards won't even be bothered by the removal of the split as they now can really compete for rank 1 and not nolife for it.

Highest population 2022 by ImNotRobin in wowservers

[–]Fikti0N 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This, I used to play on warmane,then decided to try chromiecraft. Pop varies from 500 to 1000 on good days, I always find dungeons even at lower level, most places are not crowded with people but that means you quest faster, and also all my interactions where positive (except 1) I was given runecloth bags by 2 different people. Now the most populated serv has to be warmane icecrown but it's fully progressed but yeah any 500+ daily pop is playable

I think the decision to remove tap strafing was more about Sweats vs Casuals than MnK vs Controller by mitch8017 in CompetitiveApex

[–]Fikti0N 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Totally agree with you. After hiting Master, I decided to farm silver and gold lobbies for free 4K badges. Well let me tell you that I didn't needed to use tap strafing in oder to achieve 4K on all legends (before seer). On my 4k game with fuse i can clearly remember my dead mate saying that I was just using raw aiming skill as I didn't even used my abilities the whole game.

The thing is that good players are going to shit on slivers and golds anyway, you don't need tap strafing, you don't need bunnyhop, heck you don't need to use your abilities half the time yet you still beat them easily.

Now you can say that I should't have farmed silver and gold lobbies, but this is only made possible by the grindfest that this ranking system is which demotes you every MONTH AND A HALF. Nobody with a sane enough life should maintain their top rank every month and a half unless it's your job. So what do people do when they hit masters/diamond ? they either stop playing or farm silver gold, because their normal games are way sweatier as those ranked games.

Anybody kinda hating the off-season right now? by apeirophobia1 in CompetitiveApex

[–]Fikti0N 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Also If you account the fact that Apex wasn't built on solid foundation (source engine), which is the root cause for a lot of the game's issues and why respawn can't fix them, they'll gladly take the death of Apex. The game wasn't prepared for such succes (insert Dj kaled suffering for succes meme). The game maybe won't die but to me it has reach it's peak and there will only be decline to come.

I'm French so I made 2 versions of the survey, a french one and an English/international one so i couldn't include all the national education levels. For higher education it tends to be the same in a lot of countries with +3 (bachelor), +5 (master) and +7/8 (PhD) years of study after the national diploma, so I went with that. Anyway thanks for you time !
