everything I changed is fire

lusty vault

I’m swapping to roller

#

It’s inevitable

deft peak
#

ill will try that out

quaint karma
#

im grinding it out until im literally the best tracker on apex

#

personally

#

but

#

i dont think a lot of pepole wanna do that

lusty vault
#

I wish you luck

quaint karma
#

🥹 thank you

#

and as far as im concerned

#

if you do not do that

#

you cant compete with roller anyways

alpine trail

quaint karma

but maybe that just stems from me wanting to be the best

oh no. monkas scared to press it @lusty vault

for aim, just practise daily, I believe this server has apex task list for aimlab/kvk, for mechanics of the game and your strategy, either watch some analyse videos of higher rank matches(they will explain why they made such decisions under what circumstances), or look for a friend of yours who is higher rank and has better game strategy(not those who are higher rank but their advantage is better aim)

also look for a team if you can, solo ranking does helped my personal skills, but it can be tedious, especially you will often run into some random teammates who does not even how to respect others(imagine you did 2k dmg, he did 90, and he is blaming you lol), such pure toxic cancer players

1000000% genuinely could not agree more

#

exactly lmao

#

maybe everyone having this sentiment will get them to fix some shit but

#

let’s not kid ourselves, the only reason anyone is going on about all this is cuz they heard it from their favorite steamers and have seen it repeated a billion times by other people who can’t help but parrot what content creators say

#

and it’s incredibly obvious to

#

o

dull falcon
#

my sentiment is that like theyre not vocal enough ab core concerns people have been saying since foreever

little verge
#

I always find it funny when people reference player counts as the only reason as to whether or not a game is dying. I don't think anyone talks about a game's death as count as much as it's a disconcerting set of trends that will eventually lead to a dead game.

dull falcon
#

and like the lack of features

quaint karma
#

what features

#

when i played games

#

they were released

#

and i didn’t need new skins or whatever shoved down my throat every week to enjoy the game

#

i just don’t understand

dull falcon
#

like i mainly want infinite ammo in the range that pretty much it

quaint karma
#

but ig people nowadays think of games as something different

quaint karma
#

yeah sure, we need better audio

#

yeah, there’s bugs sometimes

dull falcon
quaint karma
#

but i’ve never played a game where there weren’t issues

#

it doesn’t exist

#

if you don’t enjoy apex purely for it’s gameplay then i really cannot relate

#

seems like people expect something else entirely

grim tapir
#

Compared to the updates of the mobile version of apex, the updates of the PC version does seem like a joke

dull falcon
#

i think if you compare mobile to pc

grim tapir
#

Just like straight up the mobile version devs care a lot more

dull falcon
#

i love arenas as a mode but they let that shit go

the game has gotten worse to me with every patch from all the new content

100 win arena

wintry cypress
#

the fact it HAS to find opponents of a similar skill level in pubs is crazy to me

#

its supposed to be a casual gamemode

#

meanwhile in ranked gold players are getting into pred lobbies

#

seems like they switched the matchmaking systems around or smth

lusty vault
#

The ranked shit is fucked

#

My pubs is also fucked

#

90% of the time it puts me in eu games

#

Because it can’t find NA games I guess

#

It’s put in asian server games as well

#

I’ll queue for New York with 8 ping and then in game I have 180

#

Like what

alpine trail
#

how does taxi do the tapstrafe diagonally backwards while looking forwards

#

oh is it redirect

#

so like, W jump, SDWA?

#

or something liek that

#

he will like, slide jump at a bin, open it, then go diagonal left backwards without moving his mouse.

torn oyster
#

Basically the same as a direct with A to make you go left and right with D respectfully.
Adding w will make it go up and left/right
Same with adding S which Is a little bit harder to pull off. But it's just timing

#

So ideally speaking you crouch jump like normal but add SA or SD

alpine trail
#

oh so he just double taps A?

#

oh

#

do you just tap them both simultaneously once?

torn oyster
#

The timing window is small

alpine trail
#

or spam

torn oyster
#

No

alpine trail
#

oh

torn oyster
#

It's a timing thing like crouch and jump

#

Following SA

alpine trail
#

?

#

so slide jump

#

then SA and crouch jump?

torn oyster
#

Like ..C.J.S.A
. Representing the timing if that makes sense. If you know how to do them

alpine trail
#

oh okay, so u slide jump then S then A

torn oyster
#

Playing with a tilted keyboard makes hitting directional keys post strafe easier

alpine trail
#

but strict timing

torn oyster
#

The redirect comes from left and right first.
Holding or pressing S while in a forward movement won't take you anywhere

#

It will cancel / slowdown your velocity

#

Like if you slide jump forward with and without S, you'll notice a difference.

#

If you learn the diagonal superglide, do it in reverse, but it's rather obnoxious due to timing and the difference in flush hand movement.

Yeah I was kinda struggling after awhile last night with inconsistent pings.

I'd have 15-17ping in one
70 the next 3

lusty vault
#

It will throw me in any region

#

I don’t understand it

little verge
#

Yeah, I always have like 10 ping to game servers but my average ping is closer to 70, sometimes as high as 180.

#

Ranked one day it just threw me into Asia servers.

lusty vault
#

It sucks too because occasionally I’ll get my real server and have like 12 ping

#

But it’s such a rare occurrence anymore

little verge
#

Pretty much, and yeah it feels like the matchmaking between pubs and ranked is swapped.

The random crashing on all platforms is annoying too

lusty vault

I never crash thankfully

Not sure what causes it as if happens to my friends often

#

You do the normal SG but implement AS at the same time you input crouch and jump.
That same gap between crouch and jump is the same between crouch and AS DS

alpine trail
#

taxi does it without ledge

torn oyster
#

Anything you can climb you can do it off of.

Its mostly a redirect

It's pretty nice for what its worth. (40$) for me. But at the same time. That's how much the gibby skin is

Saved crafting mats for 4 seasons waiting for this.

#

Apex doesn't have sound issues, devs have looked into it years ago and determined it's definitely not the engines fault and there have never been any confirmed instances of no sound

quaint karma
#

my friend is convinced sound gets worse every season

#

he keeps going on about it

#

like no dude

#

its been the same

#

they havent messed with the audio lol

wet skiff
#

It actually does, there's new sound effects every season, more ambient noise, etc

#

So while they havent' changed the audio, the reason for the issues in the first place is being added too

#

easy example is the new champion, her Q and ultimate are loud and have multiple new sound effects. That's 3 new sounds that are playing during a fight with one, which means there's 3 new sounds to cutoff footsteps

#

that weren't there last season

#

if you consider that most of the sound issues fall under one of two categories(overlapping frequencies, and sound effects not playing due to a maximum number of sound effects being played) it makes perfect sense that audio feels worse every single season, even though nothing about the audio engine or design itself has changed, the devs aren't taking care to reduce the impact of the messed up audio design/engine, so it'll keep getting worse and worse without them touching anything

lusty elk
#

Apparently there's an audio queue limit too

#

Oh, you just mentioned that

wet skiff
#

like how a 2 lane highway is OK for a small town but gets congested near a city, despite the highway not changing at all, right?

quaint karma
#

ik how it works

#

but theres not any more legends in the same place as there were before

little verge
#

At this rate I can't tell whether it's because Respawn devs don't care about the audio issues and continue adding pointless audio queues, or they're intentionally doing it to further lower the skill floor.

quaint karma
#

and where are they adding new ambient sound effects?

#

can you point out a place

lusty elk
#

Eh, there might be more legends

little verge
#

New POIs in WE, new maps having lots of environmental sounds attached like weather breaker. Extra weather events, etc.

lusty elk
#

A more varied pool of meta capable legend means that 3 teams could actually have 9 different legends instead of valk Gibby horizon

quaint karma
#

idk man

#

sounds to me like its more of

#

i need to hate this game i play regularly

#

cuz thats what people do

#

cant lie

little verge
#

That swampy area outside promenade is fucking atrocious for ambient audio too.

#

If you like it, then go for it.

quaint karma
#

unless you spend all your time and that one POI

#

which apparently has more ambient sounds queued than other POIs

#

does it tho?

#

and since when do they just add POIs

#

they replace them

lusty elk
#

I don't encounter audio issues much myself, but I also don't spend 8-12 hours a day on apex all day all week

little verge
#

It's not more, it's the type of sounds. It's a consistent low gurgly noise which really fucks with the audio range you'd look for footsteps.

lusty elk
#

Those people probably spend a lot of time in problematic pois

#

It does happen sometimes, but not nearly enough for me to get mad about it lol.

alpine trail
little verge
#

Acoustics matter just as much as the amount. If two sounds occupy the same sonic space then they become muddled

quaint karma
#

so those are everywhere now?

#

you guys are playing a different game to me

#

worlds edge hasnt changed

#

since i started playing

little verge
#

WE has new POIs which have a ton of additional audio queues.

quaint karma
#

what new POIs does WE have

#

i started s10

#

according to my friend the audio gets worse every season

#

doesnt matter what map

#

like nothing could have changed and i could have you guys passionately declaiming how bad the game is getting

i swear

lol

Sorting compared to siphon is night and day difference. You gained lava ambient audio, a lot more electronic and mechanical sounds, the gondolas, etc.

Try to convince someone who sees only $$ that spending money improving visual clarity is going to cause players to spend more money. You can't provide metrics that prove it at all, it's not possible, even if it's true. So you won't get changes for that, because instead they're going to realize they can sell stickers and that has a direct $$ attached to it, so it gets priority

Either way, the audio issues and Respawn's continued exacerbation of the known problem is only one aspect. Thankfully Respawn saw to making sure the rest of the game feels just as bad over the years.

well i started talking about it cuz the guy i play with definitely is

cuz apparently there is nothing else

he could be telling me he didnt hear sounds when im right next to him and i heard it perfectly

Let me phrase it differently: I've never become so frustrated with a game that I've stopped playing it. At most it's either a game that was never going to interest me, or I just eventually want to play something different and can return to the game later on.

nothing has changed

youd think the game would be completely mute by now

it is definitely getting worse, though.

There's more controller players than ever, and Seer is meta, and in the meantime there haven't been any qol improvements in multiple seasons. Ranked matchmaking is basically non-functional, as well, once you're in diamond you just get sent by 3 stack professional players. Getting to masters is basically playing hide and seek with the pro players in the lobby.

blazing path

lethal wraith

miles_occlusion 1 being forced

little verge

Everything. Scan metas, poor balance decisions to make the game have reduced skill gaps, worsening audio issues despite knowing the cause, game design philosophies that choke future design with shit like Valkyrie, power creep with designs like Valkyrie, their focus on monetization above all else, their continued empty promises to the community on twitter to placate us before returning back to their usual routine, etc.

wet skiff
#

The devs do hardly any work at all that isn't directly related to monetization. They aren't working on improving the game for the sake of improving it, they don't do anything unless it makes them more money directly. The only changes we've gotten the last few seasons were new animations for healing, except then it turned out the only reason that happened was to sell stickers - not just to make the game better

game gets harder and harder to play solo

it's going to be like 130 days since last proper balance change if they do something mid split

It's OK, they have competitive integrity as their core focus. That's why they nerfed a skin's ironsights from like S5 before they moronically tried to resell it.

wet skiff
#

It's ok, MNK is going to be dominant again, soon. They're going to add aim assist to MNK like Halo did

#

that's what everyone wants, right?!

little verge
#

I can't imagine how awkward that must feel on M&K, gross lol.

quaint karma
#

unless AA on roller gets adjusted i think mnk needs some sort of assistance

#

bullet magnetism would work just fine

lethal wraith
#

if mnk gets anything like that then it's no longer an fps game

quaint karma
#

i guess destiny isnt an fps game

lethal wraith
#

although I guess roller players haven't been playing an fps game for a long time

#

I meant to me

little verge
#

Ah yes, let's go the cold war route of game design and just keep adding skill gap crushing mechanics to things to compensate for overpowered mechanics.

#

We'll at least counter cheating problems by giving everyone aimbot at least.

quaint karma
#

i dont see roller AA being changed

#

so what do you propose

wet skiff
#

tbh bullet magnetism is just the equivalent of increasing hitbox sizes, but I do agree with you. mnk should get nothing and roller should just get their own aim assist lobbies

lethal wraith
#

own lobbies won't happen due to comp most likely

quaint karma
#

that will never happen

lethal wraith
#

there's already roller and mnk players competing together

wet skiff
# quaint karma so what do you propose

that's actually easy - seperate raw input and aim assist lobbies. Enable full MNK support for consoles, support gyroscopic controller, and then seperate the lobbies just based on whether or not the user has raw input enabled.

So you could get raw input MNK, Controller, or gyroscopic controllers in one lobby, and in the other you have the little bitch controller players with their aim assist enabled. And can set it to 0.4 for everyone

quaint karma
#

that will never happen

#

so why talk about it

alpine trail
#

and pro scene was still mixed input

#

dont know why respawn thinks their game will die if they separate inputs

#

paladins is dead and they still did great with split input

lethal wraith
#

I don't really think Respawn cares much about anything tbh

#

they let titanfall 1 and 2 rot

wet skiff
#

Doing it the way I said even keeps crossplay, because anyone with a console can swap to MNK or raw input anytime they want and crossplay

quaint karma
#

youd alienate a lot of players doing that

quaint karma
#

they wouldnt be able to play with their friends anymore

#

or be forced to learn an input

#

which takes considerable amoutn of time

wet skiff
quaint karma
#

lmao

lethal wraith
#

good thing mnk players aren't forced to learn an input more and more nowadays Kapp

quaint karma

none of this shit works

lets just replace the ease of playing whatever input you want and queueing with whoever you want

probably having made friends on different inputs

#

and force people to play something completely foreign to them just to queue

#

yes im sure

#

no one at all would be alienated

#

👍

wet skiff

as opposed to now, where literally 90% of MNK plaayers have literally quit or swapped to controller, if not more?

blazing path
#

Littarly 90% quitted and most comp teams searching for roller fraggers

lethal wraith
#

it's ok if mnk players get alienated

quaint karma
#

aim assist needs to be reduced on controller

#

or MNK needs bullet magnetism

#

thats it

#

no other option will work

wet skiff
#

what's the big deal? if they wanna play together their controller buddies can disable aim assist or they can plug in their controller.

#

Then they can all play together again

wet skiff
#

adding aim assist to MNK kills the entire point and fun of it, keeping it as is kills MNK because it's non-competitive versus aimbot, reducing controller aim assist makes casuals mad because they're bad and can't live without it.

The only way forward is to seperate the two. There is no other solution that keeps both inputs viable, not just in apex, but in FPS gaming at all.

mnk players will probably play less with controller players because of that but so be it

Aim assist is literally the difference between a bad player 1 magging you or you winning the fight, like it's literally aiming for them.

It's not a fair fight to begin with, that's literally the entire issue lmao.

You understand the controller's rotational aim assist is literally so strong that there isn't a human being in the entire universe who could ever match it? Not even the #1 reactive tracker in the entire world can come close to the consistency provided to every single controller player by the aim assist

it's delusional to think rotational aim assist can stay the way it is, even outside of apex. All games using it need to re-evaluate how they're doing things

it's non-sustainable in the long term, the entire appeal of FPS games is gone when you're just given aimbot

Pc needs to be strong for mnk
Console for roller

What if I made keyboard and mouse compatible with a console. People on rollers without 2+ macros are easy to fight. It's honestly a 50/50 if you atleast have some form of decent tracking

#

I'm fine with mnk and rollers
I honestly don't care. But the state of how high AA is, and the state of how the game is now. It's just not enjoyable.

strong mural
#

they should remove AA from comp or make it 0.1 and 0.2 for ranked master/pred 0.3/dia 0.5/plat gold ..etc

torn oyster

That becomes a problem

The inconsistency is still there. Which makes it a bigger problem

#

I'd rather it be where it is then have that system. It just wouldn't work.

strong mural

then 0.2 for all

torn oyster
#

At best they should move it to .4 across all platforms

#

Console to pc still gets .6
Until real data is presented.

wet skiff
#

the only viable solution is to separate raw input and aim assist lobbies. There is simply nothing else that can work, the two inputs cannot ever be balanced in a way that works from both a gameplay and a business perspective, it's just impossible.

Every other solution or idea has huge negative impacts for everyone in the playerbase or the business as a whole(which will always take priority)

I picked up roller for 1 event match just to have a laugh and in 3 games. I out damaged both of my mnk games.
