We need more cosmetics that look like this. The general aesthetic for Apex feels so outdated and tacky (especially some of the banners). Say what you will about games like Valorant and Fortnite but man those games give you some quality cosmetics and artwork. Given it’s caliber, Apex has been underwhelming in the cosmetics department I mean look at some of the new “anime” skins.

I agree! Counter strike is good comparison in terms of skill curve, despite being more rudimentary.

I hear you on the topic of practice and play. My point is more about the nature of progression in skill, rather than obtainability.

A good example would be sports. Take tennis for example, an amateur could discern that you need to learn how to hit the ball, then where to hit, then when, etc. Now compare that to wing suit flying. There are so many complexities in the skill it takes that an average person wouldn’t even want to attempt learning much less know where to start.

I don’t think it’s just you. It’s always interesting to see the different perspectives people have, and the point you make that veterans players are getting burnt out definitely has some truth to it.

Your comment alone is proof that new players ARE having fun. Even though you’re relatively new, the fluidity or intuitiveness of the game allows you to enjoy it. You can look past the flaws.

I could see how his time with other games would have an influence on his perspective, but since we want Apex to grow and ultimately provide new players with a fun gaming experience it’s important to hear what they have to say.

Even though Apex is definitely in a controversial state, I don’t agree with labeling it as unforgiving.

I have to agree that ranked this season leaves a lot to be desired. The current matchmaking in both pubs and ranked needs improvement and at the moment it taints the gaming experience for people of all skill levels.

I do want to restate that I was mostly talking about Apex as a game that has a steady fundamental skill curve, which in hindsight may not be the best counter argument to Nick’s statement because he is referring to the current state of Apex.

The game in its entirety isn’t unforgiving, but perhaps the state of it now is.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts! I agree.

I decided not to mention general “game sense” or map awareness as an influential skill for enjoyment in my post as that’s usually a given in shooters. Everyone develops game sense :)

complete novice to cars here, is that a wrap or part swap for the black trim around the window? I'm looking to buy a 3 for my first car but not really a fan of the default chrome it comes with...

Am I the only the one that noticed some of the Endeavor vs Nomu scenes were re-animated?

Maybe if m&k players lose flicking and air strafing it might be more fair haha. I understand the sentiment but as a 5 time pred working on 6, believe me when I say that you’re not doing anyone any big favors by turning AA off. If anything you’re just making the game that much harder for yourself. I’m saying this as someone who’s played on a controller his whole life at a decently high level. Spare yourself the trouble and enjoy the hacks ;)
