Apex Legends ' third season went live last week, freshening up the free-to-play battle royale experience with an entire arsenal's worth of exciting new content and balancing adjustments. There's an inventive new weapon, a brand new Legend, and of course, an all new map. To sum it all up, this is definitely the biggest content update to hit the game so
The game's objective is to get wins, so it’s impossible to fault anyone for choosing to learn and play this character. The major problem is that Respawn Entertainment has developed a universe of interesting characters with unique abilities, but none of them can effectively counter a Pathfinder’s speed and height advanta
In addition, there was also speculation that the game would be a dominant entrant in eSports, as it offers players a more consistent experience than games like Fortnite , which has been criticized for its constant change. Right now, Fortnite is giving the world a perfect example of its problematic and hasty updates, with BRUTE Mechs dominating most games and almost every pro player and organization begging Epic Games to remove the unbalanced items from competitive matc
At present, playing as Pathfinder signifies an easier way to rack up kills and wins. Unfortunately, players will continue to do this until there’s some way for other characters to effectively compete with advanta
If you were worried that Respawn might be running short on inventive ideas for new Legends, then hopefully Crypto will set your mind at ease. To quote Gibraltar from the launch trailer, " Kid's got some move
Geysers actually acts just like a Jump Tower, propelling the player high into the air and putting them into skydiving mode. It's still useful, of course, especially when you're ready to rotate after looting the area. But it's a lot more time consuming and much more noticeable to nearby enemies than a simple boosted j
Caustic began as a research scientist at Humbert Labs on his home-world known as Gaea. They were the leading manufacturer for pesticides for the Frontier crops and were responsible for making sure the crops were uncontaminated and survived the entire harvest sea
One of the problems with competing against Fortnite is that players expect similar value for their consumer dollar. While the game is free-to-play, many players spend on cosmetic items to support the develo
Often when a story is told about someone cheating death and living despite everyone thinking they perished, it was done on purpose for a specific reason. For Caustic it's unclear whether he wanted to fake his death to escape punishment for his cruel experiments, or if he simply took advantage of the opportunity at the mom
It has to be admitted that the Alternator was just a wee bit overpowered with the Disruptor Rounds attachment, though the removal of the Skullpiercer is a little more difficult to justify. Regardless, for better or worse, these hop-ups seem to be out of rotation for the sea
This is great because it offers a real incentive to risking a lengthy kill animation for fallen foes outside of bragging rights. You can safely expect to be executed a lot more often and in riskier situations, and should a lot more than tempted to do the same in k
The game differed from other Battle Royale titles in that players were grouped into squads of three, with diverse classes that demand strategy and careful consideration of playstyle, and weapons that were far more accurate than in other games. As a free-to-play game, Apex Legends looked as though it would skyrocket to the top and remain th
On a recent day, a quick check on ten random popular Apex Legends Twitch streamers playing with different squad formations showed all but one playing on teams that had Pathfinders. Half were playing as Pathfinders themselves. Additionally, during the X Games Apex Legend s Invitational, which featured the best teams from around the world, almost every team in every PS5 Game patch notes included a Pathfin
Whether you're looking to obsessively drop there every game, or avoid it like the second coming of the plague, that place is definitely the Capitol City. Though it's a bit more spread out, it's still densely packed with lootable buildings, most of them being multi-story skyscrapers that make for excellent sniper perc
There are no Supply Ships to be found and fought over in World's Edge, but they've been replaced with a cool new Supply Train that loops around the map. Landing on the train is a bit more challenging, but every bit as dangerous and chaotic as a Supply Ship land
There were an awful lot of small tweaks made to weapon balancing, but here's the quick and dirty on what happened to your favorite guns. The R-99 probably got it worst, with some added randomness to its recoil pattern and a reduction in upgraded magazine size. The Prowler also took a hit, with a slight decrease to accur
His last name Nox is a clever play on NOx which is a noun for oxides of nitrogen, more specifically as pollutants in the atmosphere. As someone who relies on toxic fumes to overcome his enemies, it's a great way to tie-in his defining characteristics back into his n
