The greatest strength of Fortnite and why it has become so unbelievably popular is because it is very accessible. Anyone can pick up Fortnite and learn the basics quickly, and with special events and new twists, it will keep those new players hoo
We previously mentioned the fact that sniping is seriously hard in this game. Players move very quickly, and just hitting the target is hard enough. For these same reasons, head-shots are also very difficult to pull off in Apex Legends . In fact, these shots are so difficult that a lot of professional players choose to simply aim for the chest and body inst
Players love to execute each other. It's a nice way to rub your victory in their faces, and it looks cool to boot. But there's a time and a place for executions, and the middle of a gunfight is not one of them. You're better off shooting a downed enemy, because performing an execution leaves you wide open for attack. Plus, the animation is slow, so you're only wasting precious time by showing off. Save the execution for the last pla
Apex Legends is the new battle royale game that everyone's been talking about. It didn't take long for people to realize that this free to play multiplayer shooter was a seriously awesome experience, and more people are checking it out with each passing day. It might be too early yet, but many people think that this game has the potential to become the next Fortnite , and rob this game of its crown in the Battle Royale genre. There's a lot of things that this game does slightly differently. First of all, it's class-based, and it also revolves around team play more than anything. It has a slightly futuristic, science fiction vibe to it, and the art style is actually really c
This comes down to play style. It’s highly unlikely that an enemy would choose to attack a Wattson that has barricaded themselves in a house with fences, over a character on the outside that has no stun fence and shield regeneration abilities. For players who believe that the strongest solo mode strategy involves camping safely until a final zone showdown, Wattson may be the strongest p
While it is certainly not a completely new thing to add to a video game, Apex Legends is the first major Battle Royale game to add different characters with different abilities. Overwatch is a great example of how having characters with unique abilities can make a shooting game extremely fun while also adding layers of complexity. Apex Legends allows you to pick your role and synergize with teamma
Use the Tagging System - Apex Legends has one of the best non-verbal forms of communication in gaming today with its tagging system. Calling out the location of extra weapons and armor, tagging nearby enemies, and marking ideal drop locations are all possible with this tool. Put it to
Play five minute of Apex Legends roles Legends , and you'll quickly learn that sliding is key. Combat is fast and high octane in this game, and if you don't slide, you won't make it very far. Sliding is great because you do literally anything while sliding. You can heal, reload and shoot all while sliding. Doing all of these complex actions might take a little bit of practice, but the veterans all know how to slide with st
A lot of new players like to play cautiously. Therefore, they will sidestep around a massive ledge and find a way safe way down rather than just jumping. There is absolutely no fall damage in this game, so you are free to jump from any height, including from the supply ships. It helps keep the game flowing, and it allows for quick escapes if you find yourself in trouble. Seriously, go against your instincts and don't be afraid to j
In a Solo Mode gunfight, phasing during a bullet battle allows Wraith to survive long enough to find cover and shield the character from damage. This ability also means her character can avoid taking damage in the storm for short periods of time, which can sometimes means the difference between outliving an opponent as players race toward the safe z
It happens in most games - a particularly overzealous player sees some specks in the distance, pings their location to their teammates, and starts shooting at them with an assault rifle. This is probably the worst thing you could possibly do. Sure, if you have a sniper rifle, then go crazy, but otherwise leave them alone. It's not only a huge waste of ammo, but it gives away your position to them and the squads in the nearby vicinity. Try tracking inst
In the current state of the game, Wraith is easily one of its most valuable players. Her ability to quickly reposition using Into the Void, paired with a Dimensional Rift portal that allows her and other characters to travel longer distances in the blink of an eye, will also prove valuable in solo com
If Bloodhound wasn't such a cool tracker and hunter, people might assume that they were a theater geek. Bloodhound can often be heard speaking as if they were Norse and were auditioning for a role in the next Thor movie in the Marvel Cinematic Unive
