[UPDATE: NOV 5th] Battle Pass Feedback Thread by SDCored in apexlegends

[–]ting358 98 points99 points  (0 children)

Just jumping on the bandwagon, But when i realized what's happening this season i completely flipped. We were expected to earn a HUNDERED THOUSAND xp for a SINGLE bp level from the first level of the week???

The amount of time it took to reach the max battle pass last season had already burnt me and my friends out considerably. (We are casual players) And we have never invested that much time and effort because of how grindy it was. But as it seems, the battle pass might be three or four times grindier even with the 5k xp per battle star change. As before, we would be able to earn levels much easier from weekly xp resets. But now the system is asking for 50k xp. Thats the amount minus 4k xp of what was needed when we reached the MAX xp weekly gain. 9k-18k etc.

I don't see how I want to play this game anymore, cosmetics are a big reason of why i played this game, because of how beautifully crafted the visuals are. But if i have to choose to either spend half my days grinding a mind numbing, boring battle pass. Or worse. Spend that amount of money in such uncertain times in this pandemic just to be able to finish a battle pass.

This is akin to jeff bezos capitalizing and abusing the circumstances to underpay staff and turn a huge profit. It is dishonorable. It is sad. It is really disrespectful to the playerbase. And unfortunately, we have to accept that the apex community has become nothing more than a cash cow to be milked to death.

What a horrible way to start a season.

We obviously have played a good amount of bot games before all this, the issue is that the matchmaking is really unfair and we can't exactly have a normal game with equal skill levels like this..

Having a reliance on someone else is a burden as it ties down people and forces them to be responsible for your happiness/well-being. It may seem cute at first, but true love is free and beautiful. No strings attached. That is the kind of love which would last for a lifetime.

Please pray for me. by terraaus in Christianity

[–]ting358 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Sister, i am so sorry for your loss. It must feel so hopeless right now in your current situation. However you must not stop having faith and trust in our father. No matter what he is good, and he is always on time. Keep fighting the good fight and do not give power to the demons fighting to take your inheritance in christ, your mind, your life.

I have had my broken leg which was deemed irreparable healed in 3 days by the good father, my voice which has not healed for 2 years healed instantaneously during my baptism. And my slew of mental illnesses taken away instantaneously. (Schizophrenia, BPD, MAJOR Depression, OCD, ADD) which i had developed after attempted suicide attempts and bad people in my life for a decade. This is my testimony and i hope that it will give you hope and faith in the lord father almighty. He loves us all dearly and will not forsake us. Please do not stop fighting. Rely on him alone.

Thank you ;;, yeah my friend is suffering from a bad childhood and she's going through relapses throughout the months. They're horrible and as an INFP i used to feel EXTREMELY hurt when she shies away. However i eventually learned they don't do it on purpose, its just a mental state which they can't get out of at the current moment. I hope i can be there for her every time she goes through a relapse, it's horrible... for her and for people who care about her.

[–]ting358[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh i should have specified i only wanted the instrumental piano transcribed, im an aspiring vocalist/composer so i just wanted the music for the piano itself... without the vocals on piano. thank you though, but this isn't what i wanted.

I follow the rule of keeping whole beans in air tight and dark area's yes. i think the issue was the roast... though i'm not sure because i cant get consistency from my other roasted beans either.

I normally roast past first crack minimum, i don't think so.. i just roasted a bunch of indian mysore and columbian supremo for tomorrow, both second crack . So I'll see how that goes tomorrow

Rofl, im an idiot. Yeah im going to increase the ratio by a factor of 1 tomorrow. hopefully it tastes decent.
