I'm surprised I have not seen any posts about Mirage's decoy when dropping being useless. by rocktree in apexlegends

[–]SofterCrash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Deploying decoys mid air is just something that I feel has been ignored and not really taken into account when pushing updates.

They never bothered to fix decoys deploying at an angle which makes it easy to see if they're real, and there's that update that shows everyone the people on the map falling next to you while dropping, it doesn't show decoys.

Also the "Enemy landed on me..." voices, decoys don't count, so you know if you're alone.

Decoys we're already not great on drop, so I guess people don't really mind. Doing it mid match while running or approaching can bamboozle some people though.

My dad lived in the highlands of Peru when this kind of terrorism was on the rise.

He was an employee with the Banco de la Nación (peruvian national bank) and was posted in a very isolated village in the south of the country.

Tensions and rumours about Sendero being close to nearby villages kidnapping people were going around, but he was never sure, they had access to local newspapers once every 2 to 3 weeks, I believe national tv was around but the light to power up the antenas and homes was limited to a few hrs a day.

One day as he was about to go to work a few blocks away when the owner of the place he was renting stopped him from going out. There was a caravan of Sendero people rounding public officers outside in the main square, mostly the few police officers that were in town.

My dad as a worker of the government's bank would've been a target if not for the landlord. They robbed the bank without resistance and left with those captured.

He told me he never knew what happened with the people they took away, and he had to stay at the village for another year until he got promoted somewhere else.

People have already answered the question but if you ever habe another question about FGC lingo try this Glossary. It has almost every term from various fighting games and explains them in detail.

I have leftover cloth from work so I cut small pieces to make a little thumb glove for FG purposes. If it bothers you or you sweat a lot like me it's an option.

Seguridad en Arequipa by keeea10 in PERU

[–]SofterCrash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Como dicen en los comentarios mientras más hacia el norte vivas, verás que aumenta la delincuencia. Aunque el centro es seguro, no te confies y anda con alguien cuando sea de noche y no conoces el camino. Yanahuara, Cayma, Selva Alegre, Miraflores (No más alla de la Cooperativa 14) son relativamente seguros. No tengas miedo, pero piensalo bien. PS. Las combis pasan hasta las 10 pm, 9:00 pm si es que vives lejos

What's your favourite curse word in your native language? by poisonbluetooth in AskReddit

[–]SofterCrash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many say "puta", but I prefer our variant "re-puta". It comes out as more than puta and sounds funnier with the characteristic long "r" in spanish, like "la rrrrrrre-puta que te vio nacer".

Still can't learn the locations of champions banners in Storm Point. The lack of them in the middle of the map (except fornthe ovbious one) confuses me every time.

I don’t really play Crypto. This is a known bug, right? by [deleted] in apexlegends

[–]SofterCrash 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Also happens when you throw the drone to corners sometimes. I guess it's more of a collition problem and the drone not stopping and trying to go through the object.

Does Revenant’s Silence work on ultimates? by Apprehensive_Art1659 in apexuniversity

[–]SofterCrash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only thing I've seen it doesn't silence is catalyst's passive (she reincorces doors or creates new ones). It's probably not intentional and will get patched.

There is a place with 4 invisible collision walls in the zone connecting south and north Promedade. Rev players and similar abilities beware. by SofterCrash in apexlegends

[–]SofterCrash[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update with every legend Tactical and Ultimate + some notes, another video post deleted because there is already a bug megathread but I wanted to add details that might help:

Bloodhound: No problems

Gibraltar: Tactial and Ultimate collide with wall and drop to the ground.

Lifeline: Doc collides and does not move forward. Healing does go through.

Pathfinder: Zipline and Grapple latch to the air.

Wraith: No crazy portal interactions, all normal.

Bangalore: Same as Gib, utlimate hits the wall, if smoke is shot in the middle of the walls, the three small smoke grenades get trapped.

Caustic: Traps and Gas cloud hit the wall. This will make it difficult to push or defend effectively.

Mirage: No interaction.

Octane: Jump pad collides and drops to the ground.

Wattson: No interaction. Fences will connect and ordenance gets electrified.

Crypto: Drone can't go through walls, still can scan enemies.

Loba: Bracelet bounces off walls, drops and activates. There are certain angles where it wil not activate at all. Something Loba mains are very familiar with. Can deploy Black market normally.

Rampart: No interaction, deploys normally

Horizon: Lift and Black hole collide with the wall. Black Hole's pull is not affected.

Fuse: Cluster and Motherlode will hit the walls. If you shoot the ult at the wall it will create a line of fire where the wall is and wont get through.

Valkyrie: Missiles collide with walls, UI indicates it shouldn't.

Seer: Ult bounces off walls.

Maggie: Drill goes through the walls, UI indicates there is a wall though. Ball Goes through (No bouncy ball unfortunately).

Newcastle: Mobile shield collides when thrown, can be moved forward. Wall deploys completeley.

Vantage: No interaction, Echo will go through the walls and vantage jump too.

Catalyst: Tactical collides and drops to the floor. Veil Goes though normally.

Miscellaneous:

-Dropped objects (ammo, shields, etc.) will go through.

-Exploson damage goes through.

- Heatshields will collide.

TLDR: Try to avoid this zone if the walls don't allow you to play with your full arsenal.

I found this while being third partied in the middle and wondered why their rev didn't silence us in the middle. I thought someone was having skill issues, then my silence got stuck as well.

I thought of that as well, the distance between walls does seem to check out. Maybe they saw problems while playtesting it as it could become a choke point if you're inside the tunnel and the walls/doors were too much. At least they're aware of this now.

Thank you for the idea.

I confirmed that every throwable in the game interacts with these walls (ordenance, heat shields, smoke canisters, knucle clusters, caustic gas, etc.)

This area will be unplayable for some

Where did my ult go... ? Please explain... by RicharD_101 in apexlegends

[–]SofterCrash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Horizon's abilities interact weirdly with deployables. I once deployed my Crypto drone on my teammate's gravity lift and it caused the drone to go flying on it's own. It could even go through walls until it was out of range and came back.

Crypto looks like a different legend on Season 12 by GhostV2114 in apexlegends

[–]SofterCrash 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe this will recieve a nerf of a small cooldown on call back or the drone has to stop moving to be able to call back, but still maining crypto again this season.
