re: Apex Legends: F2P Battle Royale game from Respawn

Just had a 6 kill win. Probably my best game yet. The wingman is so fricking good

I know the pros push hot dropping to get better at BRs in general but I don’t understand why complete noobs do this. I get it if you’ve been plying FPS your whole life and you still maintain a steady gaming schedule. But if you suck arse at aiming and have zero situational awareness, you’re not going to get better no matter how many times you got drop. You’re a free kill. All you’re doing is landing and dying. Rinse and repeat. I don’t understand how some think this makes them “better”?

Played a bit last night and 90% of the randoms i played with would hot drop and like I described above, would die immediately. Even if they had decent RNG luck and got level 2 armor and a good gun. They were done. The other 10% was a lot of fun though. Won a match dropping kinda hot. The Gibraltar I played with was nasty. They’d hear gun fire then run over to where it came from and take them down Dropped got another match where I saved my team twice from being eliminated. We were battling another squad inside a building on the second level where we kept trading downed teammates. Then got third partied but survived two of them. The third guy comes in with a peacekeeper and downs both my teammates. I run back up the stairs and spray him with Alternator. Now out of ammo and 3/4 health. I rush him, he barely gets me on one blast, misses his next three before I KO him with a right hand We ended losing to a guy with 1000 kills after we made it out of the city.

would have to agree with you, dropping hot as a noob is pointless. barely a speed bump on most of these dude's radar

yea it can be "fun" but are you really learning much.. idk. sure as frick aint learning how to use Ultimates

that's... fricking brilliant.

The worst is when people drop fast, die, then disconnect before the fight is even over

that's because randoms don't usually attempt to respawn their teammates. i'm the worlds worst about backing out of a match when dying. maybe if they had a mic and told me they'd go for the respawn, it'd stick around.


ETA: sorry, not sorry, for not trusting randoms.

i've completely given up on this game. i suck, the randoms i play with suck, no consitent team to play with, back to the inferior blackout.

It's a numbers game. The other day me and my buddy get paired with a random and on his banner he has a bunch of kills. I ask if he has a mic. No response. He peels off the drop a little ways away from us so I figure he's going solo. He gets thirsted. I say "we gotta get this guy up". We kill the last guy in the squad he was fighting, run to the respawn beacon and he starts talking. I told him we weren't going to let him die. When he spawned in I dropped my Hemlok for him and just rolled an EVA 8 until after the next fight. Ended up getting 2nd and he friended us and we rolled for a couple hours and got another 2nd and a 3rd. Saw on my feed that he's won as all 8 legends and has dealt 5,000 damage as all 8. So you just never know.

After all these years, I finally find my way into the TD discord.

GGs to all last night

Anyone experienced major crashing issues? I haven't had any issues crashing. But, I have a good buddy i try to play with that literally crashes every other game. Apex is basically unplayable for him. He has scrolled through countless reddit topics trying all the fixes and nothing seems to work.

Anyone on here deal with these issues?
