I've been having a tough time getting into the game. I love Apex but lately something has felt very... meh. The game just has not evolved. Let me know your thoughts on Apex right now. 2024 is going to be a fun year, can't wait to start streaming more! Stay tuned!

I've found myself more and more jumping off apex and into titanfall 2 since its recent update.hearing u mention a BR mode but on a huge map with titans really resonates with me. And considering the universe apex is based on it feels almost separate from the actual game play. Besides some guns and only 1 character that's actually from titanfall, without looking into the lore you wouldn't know this is the titanfall universe and that's just sad to me.

I've played since day 1 and have over 5k hours played. I've experienced all the changes that Apex has had. The good , bad and ugly. I agree with a ton of what you've mentioned. I believe it's the willingness of EA/ Respawn to spend (money or time )to make changes. They expect their player base to spend on all the cosmetics yet can't even give console 120 fps, fix audio , or handle cheating. Apex is played on an outdated source engine that's tweaked to death while thier competition strives to make unique changes. All my friends I use to play with moved on long ago and I've stayed loyal even tho solo queuing is poison to the soul. If Apex just stays the same I'm honestly not sure I'll continue.

For me the game has felt the same for as long as I remember. Every season consisted of playing BR on the same maps with little to no changes with the same guns. Now I’m even more disappointed since there’s no winter express this year, the LTM I actually look forward to playing more than anything else. Nothing new is being brought up so there’s always the same expectations each time there’s a new season.

This is the best summary of the state of the game I've seen so far, I completely agree with all the points you're bringing up. I love the game but only have a couple of hours to play a day, and my friends have completely quit on the game, there's just no place right now for non high-skill players, which is a shame. Really hope Respawn is looking at these breakdowns instead of focusing on selling more skins. No one left to buy your shit if they all quit lol

I'm not overly fussed about new legends every season. A dev made a good point about each legend needing to have a distinct silhouette so you can more reliably tell who you're fighting. Permanent events with like the one copy cat kits, ultra zones, 3 strikes or something where everyone gets super charged abilities would be awesome to keep things fresh. But yes, more balanced match making would have to be the biggest priority. I'm often going against players with 10K-50K kills on their main, while I have 4K kills on my main, which is just silly.

In other words you want a game mode where you will be matched with players that have below 100 hours of game play so that you can "have casual fun" stomping them. Non sbmm game modes are only fun for the game veterans. They do not give anything to a new player or a casual with not a ton of hours behind them.

To this day after all the explanations they gave us I can't make up why there is not a solo mode for whoever doesn't want to deal with teammates. Apex imo has the one of the best 1v1's in which the actual better player wins and it's all watsed since you need to "work as a team". Imagine how good it would feel to go aggresive by yourself in a solos lobby and just go crazy. Only thinking about it is so much fun.

I had this thought the other day and I think it can help improve the game (content wise). 1 the introduction of perks (from leaks and the new revenant event) can create more chaotic gameplay and can make some viable or less viable legends more viable/ fun to play (ex. fuse with 3 stacked grenades was crazy fun). The second idea is a wall running mode where players can be in teams or 3, 2 or solos. This mode will feature faster movement, NO legends, faster time to kill numbers, and faster healing and faster dropship revives. This mode can also be a BR or an extraction shooter where players collect items and head to a dropship evac zone. there was talk of a new city map and this mode would be perfect for it. it can also be called Octanes gauntlet (because now Octane owns the Silva company so now he is the new game head). Here Octane wants to see the best of the best in pilot gear to fight to the death or gather cool items for him. This would be a mode that drastically changes the apex dynamic but at this rate I think Apex needs this to keep people invested. But that's my thought.

I started playing Apex back in Season 13 and at the time I really needed something new to play I mainly Rainbow Six Siege and Overwatch and when I played Apex for the first time it felt like such a breath of fresh air I hadn’t played anything like it but as of late I genuinely haven’t played it as much. Ever since this season launched I genuinely just haven’t cared and just went back to R6 and Overwatch because the matchmaking is just that bad at least you can still causally have fun in those games but in Apex??? You’re putting yourself through it just have one decent game where you at least felt like you did something and it doesn’t help that I’m sadly a solo player my friends pretty much gave up on the game because of how sweaty it is and I honestly couldn’t blame them the matchmaking is just that bad playing Pubs genuinely feels like I entered a tournament and the person that wins gets 100,000 dollars 😭 all in all I really love this game at its core it’s amazing but something has to got to give.

I think the worst part about this new era of Apex being the "holy shit ranked is so bad" year, is the fact that from now on, any time a regular apex fan sees Ballistic, they won't think about his banger backstory or his fun kit or his snobby voice lines, but his face is forever ingrained into our heads as "yeah that dudes face reminds me of when ranked used to not suck." Like the bad vibes actively seeks out and overshadows actually cool things being added to the game if that makes sense...kinda sad

Nah, this idea will alienate casuals even more than the game already does. This is why they limit how many maps are on rotation. My bud started playing maybe 4 seasons ago, hes got a xbox account to like level 300 and a pc account to around 150. Hes still not fully familiar with all the maps. Limiting gun availability will make casuals take even longer to learn the game which is already ultra sweaty making them way more likely to quit even faster. I 100% agree with the crafter thing. Fuck damage tho, just make it so as soon as a crafter is touched by zone it explodes.

While hacking is almost unheard of in this game. An easy 30-40% of the player base are using exploits and cheats that make the game unplayable especially on console. The amount of times a Bangalore has used the loba armor swap exploit to reset their grey armor to purple after I crack them is so common, then they beam you with aim scripts installed on their consoles. Legit I see preds move like they’ve never played the game then as soon as I crack them they hide behind a corner and pop out with new armor that couldn’t have been swapped out legitimately and then suddenly they shoot like a predator but their movement is sooo nooby it’s obvuous

I haven't played Apex in over a year, being some of the points you brought up as well as some other reason as why I haven't, like the start of it for me was at the end of 2022 where there was a limited time mode event that broke the game, straight made the game unplayable for a week/more for some and all they did as an apology was extend the rank playlist by a week. Now I'm not one of those players after the game somewhat breaks after a second to scream "FREE STUFF NOW", but they 100% should've let every player have a choice of a single item from that event since they didn't even extend that event to allow players time to actually play that event to earn really anything that one could playing it since no one could for a week straight. After that fiasco I just lost all hope from the team specially since their a part of EA. I feel like they need to break apart from EA and go solo or find a less greedy company to be their publisher in my opinion. But yea I too at one point longed for them to bring back Solo's as well as but since their weird view on their game is it's a "Team Hero Shooter Game" which sounds more like Overwatch and they have something that would be a ken to a solo mode in Apex called Free For All, so to me that excuse goes out the window. In the end though I feel like Apex has it's end coming and there's little to no chance of being on a increase of players in my opinion. Great Video.

TimProVIsion, I doubt you'll read this, but, I'm someone who started playing Apex in season 18, about 3 months ago, and as a newbie I just wanted to give my perspective on entering the community. I actually really enjoyed the fact that the game was made up of basically a bunch of players who had more skill than me. I felt as though the extremely unforgiving learning curve was more of a challenge, than anything. Similarly to why I love Elden Ring and Dark Souls, the "get good" vibe of the game kept me coming back to Apex. I was getting killed over and over again, and in total since I started playing I've only won about 25 battle royale matches, but I personally love that. I feel like every win is because of my own growing skill, and it's much more rewarding than killing bots in a game like Fortnite. Plus the fact that there isn't a solo mode encouraged me to socialize with the community, and find players who I get along with and work well with as a team. Those players then helped teach me new skills and learn new things, and have helped me improve in the game as well! I've made some great friends through Apex in the few months I've been playing for, and maybe that's just because I play with my mic always on, but I find that despite all the negativity that can be found online, with some persistence and patience I found friends who were willing to help me improve the game and then improve together with me as a team. I hope Apex makes some of the changes you mentioned in this video, because I've actually enjoyed my time with the game and hope that it continues to live on and evolve over time. Thanks for coming to my TED Talk.

most importantly: turn open mic off you satanist. On a more serious note the "get good" mentality is not a good one for the game nor is it the majority mindset and in fact I would consider it a problem because its a never ending cycle that just makes the game miserable to play for anyone who doesn't share that mentality. Nobody thinks that just killing significantly lower skill players is fun but people want a fair shot at the game which the game objectively doesn't give you, fights should be a 50/50 of who comes out on top not through weapon choice or obscene engine exploits (aka movement tech) but through tactical awareness and outwitting your opponent. As it stands the matchmaking is out to get you and for 90% of people that isn't fun.

I started playing months ago and I feel the same as you. My background is competitive fighting games, so that explains my love for hard high learning curve games, like this one. But, the thing is, this perspective and mindset is an explanation of why this kind of games will have a permanent playerbase, but not necessarily a big one. There are many fighting games that live years with 1000 players, having the craziest competitive scenes. The shooter game scene is just not used to this kind of games, which are expert centered or specialized players and lower counts of people playing that are crazy faithful to the game. Apex will not die, but maybe it will simply not be the biggest mainstream game.

I think apex would benefit greatly from a movement system “rework”. It seems like all the moment tech in the game wasn’t intentional and because of that there are no real tutorials of how to exploit the mechs. Meaning even causal who have 1000+ hours in game cant use movement in a meaning full way. In top of learning weapons in legends. Matching can’t be fixed. Because the gap between players who get it and who don’t is to huge. Meaning you’re only playing with bots/ok players or complete sweats. The gap is too big for the player base to not be two extremes.

I stopped playing Apex in its entirety for over a year when they made the ranked changes around season 13 or 14 or.. whatever, can't remember. I have always been a solo player, solo grinding ranked, and the lack of a solo game mode had been rough enough as is but the ranked changes made the mode as a solo player even LESS fun. It wasn't worth grinding for me anymore. I started playing again for a friend of mine and I have no words for how sweaty these lobbies are. You'd think it's simple enough to introduce something like a solo game mode or fix sbmm. I genuinely hope they do something, anything about the state of the game because it's one of my fave games and seeing its potential go to waste is such a shame.

THEY COULD very well do all of the stuff that is needed to keep Apex's life going, I mean they created a whole battle royale bassed off of Titanfall in the first place, but EA/Respawn choose NOT to. And its sad because I absolutely LOVE this game and some of my best memories with my friends are in this game, and they're milking it dry but barely feeding it. Feels bad.

Why don't they do a solo mode but only certain legends you can pick, to keep it balanced. I really, really want to enjoy it again, it means a lot to me as it's literally the game that gave birth to the idea of my book Gamertag Stories. Come back Apex.

I'm very curious what the devs will plan for coming season. If they don't manage to reverse the current issues I feel like Apex will end in the gutter for a while. I've still been playing a lot (maybe I shouldn't) but it takes a lot. Only playing ranked (30% solo) and we're doing well but it takes a lot of time. For ranked, I do like the matchmaking (hot take) because I'm playing people of the same skill. Ranked IMO has to be sweaty, but putting me in silver when I'm a mid diamond player just feels off, having to play diamond like lobbies for so long with low rewards for everything makes it just a time based grind.

I personally would like to see rotating LTM modes. Also a lot less likely a mode where they test player feedback on new buffs and nerfs and possibly new items/weapons even without modles give me finger guns with same feel as the gun, and in the same mode maybe test legends as well. I would prefer 3 strikes for this mode so everyone has a chance to use these items more. I'm not sure how difficult it is to set different damage and recoil for weapons and legends stats but I personally would enjoy this. I believe it would not only be fun but give us a sense of community so long as you know they actually listen to everybody playing it lol

To be fair though.

While these changes didn’t bring more players back as shown in the player chart you showed us in the video I still believe that these things were for sure a W for Apex.

I used to love this game so much. Played from day 1 for a long time. I really got into it around season 2 with the disruptor round meta. I took breaks but would always come back after a little while, until I didn’t. The game has just gotten so stale, and while I wasn’t bad at the game at all, I was tired of getting one win, and 15 losses with the horrendous matchmaking. All of that combined with so few changes and such little content. I’ve been thinking about getting back into the game, but this video makes me doubt that I’ll enjoy it again. I hope I’m wrong, and that Apex will be able to revive itself, and significantly change their weapons, legends, and add much more content.

I have got to agree with you 100% TimProVision on how Apex doesnt have any real gameplay that is tuned for the new players, and or the longer term casual players. I myself started playing Apex when it originally started, and it was extremely fun. I ended up playing almost 4000 games in the first couple of years, but then I quit playing for a couple. Now when I came back to start playing again in 2023, I found the game just didnt have any game modes for the casual single player. That pushed me into having to play solo in duos because I dont always want to be teamed up. That being said, Apex Legends does need to makes some serious overhauls to keep the game relevant for as long as possible. Last point to make is that I started playing Fortnite because my son enjoys the game, and what I found is that even though Fortnite doesnt exactly hit the mark in certain areas of the FPS genre in that its a first and third person shooter genre game, The absolutely massive amount of various game modes, along with the ability to play ranked for a more difficult game, or non ranked for casual players, along with solo up to 4 player squads, with build or non building battle royale modes has almost completely pushed me away from Apex to mainly focus my playing time on Fortnite. That alone sucks to say because I feel Apex has the potential to be an amazing game still, but there needs to be some massive work on how to increase all levels of player skills, solo match games, and then more limited time multiple respawn matches that are rotated, and not taken away. Thanks again for your honest and detailed analysis of the multitude of issues Apex Legends faces moving forward into the 2024 year, and I seriously do hope the changes are worthy of bringing new as well as more casual players back to the game. If that doesnt happen, and soon, I honestly think Apex Legends will not last much longer than a couple more years until a new battle royale game is released that makes Apex a game that just couldnt keep pace with what the game needs to keep players on the game.

I have to grind an extra four levels if I want to get to my usual gold and I don't have time for that. It's only been the last three seasons, so Respawn/EA changed something for the worse.

Respawn are walking on a fine line. They have to change the game enough but have it still feel familiar. Everyone wants the game to change and they want to go back to season 0. What people want is the game to change and to feel what they felt in season 0. Sorry to burst your bubble but it's not going to happen. You have to pace yourself with this game. You have to have a reason to play. A kill goal, a win goal, a survive longer goal, a desire to win, a desire to do better. When you have played the game for this long, loading it up with the current SBMM to 'just have fun' with 0 goals won't cut it. That's why mixtape modes are there. And if mixtape is no longer fun, you have to look elsewhere on the games market.

Love the Lore and the Charachters. Mine Being Caustic and Mad Maggie. But the gameplay of Battle Royales burned me out from all of them. The idea of just spawning in, in the hopes you get a decent set just to die and do it again and again, is pure insanity. They then added modes like team deathmatch and Gungame, but for whatever reason, left in point capture mode in rotation, which almost always ends in a one sided match. Crosssave took too long to the point that I didn't care anymore. Battlepasses felt like a full-time job for a semi Casual to me. Smurfs in everymode. I could go on about more, but I still have a love for Apex I just would rather play it now in a different style of game. I moved on to Rainbow Six Siege now in the last couple of years, and as painful as some matches can be, Im having a better time not playing push forward simulators. Hopefully, Respawn Team listenes before it's too late. Just because I dont play the game anymore doesn't mean I want it to fail.

Ive full on quit playing the BR. Ive always hated the idea of battle royal because its too much rng imo, i cant stand getting 19th partied by the entire lobby if i shoot a single bullet, but the gameplay of apex is so good i put up with it. But omfg lime you said at the start of the vidost , it felt like a full time job.. in order to even net 1 kill it felt like i needed to be plating 5 hours a day or i cant kill anyone because everyone feels like they are so good. My experience for the most part was queue up, load in, draft squad, drop in a spot that didnt have 15 teams dropping to try and have a chance to survive but only to instantly get rolled by the 3 stack of master players who contested the poi we picked.. then load up again.. so my expeirience turned into a loading screen simulator. Load up for 2-3 minutes to loot for maybe 20 seconds and get 1 clipped and repeat… its a massive waste of fucking time. They released mixtape and since im a halo kid at heart the mode is not only more appealing but i actually get a chance to shoot and play the game, i also find myself at the top of the scoreboard more often than not.. which makes zero sense since in the br i struggle to kill a single person. So i play some mixtape maybe 1-3 times a week for a few hours but even then it still feels like a job to do well. Oh and lets not even get into the solo or duo queue experience.. im plat skill at absolute best.. so why the fuck do i have to fight 3 stack of masters while my random is a legit level 1 who has no idea how to heal. I told my duo bud i refuse to waste my time with the br because of the trash teammates we get who run off alone or are legit bots meaning no matter what 9/10 matches its basically 2v3. Well my bud asked to play just 1 br match this season… and boom we get the solo who does not know how to heal.. i have not played the br for like 3 seasons now because of this bs, and my first game in 3 seasons is that again.. my bud coudnt stop laughing, and said that when he plays br solo he almost never gets that.. idk wtf is this bullshit matchmaking but respawn and ea can take their eomm or what ever manipulitive matchmaking they have and shove it up their peepee holes. Fuck this game and fuck the execs holding the devs back from making the game actually good instead of some psychological manipulative engagement matchmaking.

I had played Apex daily from Season 4 up until Storm Point dropped. After that, I’d play until the map switched to Storm Point, then play something else. I despise that map, Broken Moon isn’t much better, and the lobbies I’m in, you either drop hot to actually fight because over half the lobby is dead before round 1, or drop elsewhere and spend 15+ minutes looking for a fight. I’m either frustrated that I die immediately bc the bin I opened had a white shield and a shotgun bolt while the enemy next to me grabbed an R99 and a Mastiff, or I’m frustrated bc I didn’t drop hot and there’s only 6 squads left at round 2 on a big map. Don’t even get me started on the fact that after years of playing apex daily for hours on end, I’m still waiting for my free heirloom and most of my drip that I’ve earned has been for legends I barely play.
