I keep telling my buddy we need to go for masters

#

he got to diamond 1 first split season 10

graceful swallow
#

not that hard as long as you want it

#

definitely a ton of people who hard grind it out

#

with like 500+ games

alpine trail
#

its 10k rp right

#

for masters

#

so 2800 from dia

we is just most fun to fight at

#

I liked og Olympus

#

idk about new Olympus

#

Played it twice

runic swallow
#

KC is fine, it just plays different

lusty vault
#

plays like shit

alpine trail
#

I miss cascades

little verge
#

Fuck that, I like a gigantic area with fuck all for cover that you are forced to pass through due to zone rotations all the time.

alpine trail
#

that is true

#

however it was my favorite drop spot on og kc

little verge
#

It's OK though, it's not like Apex hasn't consecutively done nothing but bad changes for 3 years and completely changed the game to cater to people playing on high input delay TVs and fisher price toys.

surreal linden
#

this is big

lusty vault
#

my stats this seaso are so boosted

surreal linden
#

stats are a very inconsistent measure of skill

#

u can hard pad ur stats super easy just by queueing w ppl who are not dog shit

little verge
#

My lifetime stats have increased despite crossplay, so I call that measurable improvement.

lusty vault
#

yeah I’m at 1k 5 lifetime

season went ok for me

okay you say.....

I decided to check, and I have almost half the games this season as I played before. Indicative.

#

Get a P2020 and Flatty with no ammo, still able to pull this off while we get thirded by a team with gold/purple armour out of the gate.

#

I can't fathom how the loot pool has been this bad for so long.

figuring out the new map gonna be fun

#

spam q pubs for a couple of games den onto ranked

little verge
# ashen trench KC?

Doesn't matter, the loot pool always sucks in this game because they don't do anything to improve it.

#

"We have a stable ammo pool, let's introduce two new types of ammo and also make white bags ground loot."

hoary hamlet
#

going through an entire building only to find snipers idk how to use

ashen trench
#

no i mean KC literally has the worst loot pool of the bunch

little verge
#

I mean, they're all the worst.

#

When your baseline is atrocious, it doesn't matter how much worse the others are.

runic swallow
#

Man you really seem to dislike this game no one is forcing you to play

ashen trench
#

ngl i have 0 issues with the loot

#

i just do the best i can with whats given to me

#

you cant loot better items so why tilt at it

little verge
#

Because it could be better, and it's been something that they'll take one step forward with just to make two steps back?

I'd never played FPS games with MKB until this summer and after about 60hrs of Voltaic I've just had my best moment yet in Apex.

||hmm||

chilly charm

#

Thanks! I've got a long way to go (only Silver in the benchmarks with a few Golds) but moments like that make it feel worthwhile.

#

The sound of the charged Sentinel firing is so satisfying too.

Ive been playing FPS on controller for nearly 20 years so some of the hand eye coordination and reactions must have carried over a bit but it didn't feel like it when I was getting top 2% percentiles in my first runs of challenges. Lol.

#

Holy shit, three people were just camping the exit doors to central siphon and hunched together in the corner.

#

And of course it's two console and a roller player.

#

Guy on PC using roller.

#

Like imagine having 0.6 AA and three stacking a pub while hiding in a corner.

little verge
#

Prime example:

#

All three had 187 damage combined 10 minutes in.

bright elm

#

THEY JUST FUCKING SAT THERE

#

We fought fucking three teams one at a time and they just sat there waiting.

bright elm
#

85 wins with 2k damage

#

2k kills

#

I mean

#

holy fuck

#

how

little verge
#

15 kill game at least, jesus.

bright elm
#

if you average the damage he does

#

he does 316 damage for every kill

#

idk if damage done is specific

#

to a legend

little verge
#

Still, I think I got the best third party of the match.

#

Whipped an arc star through the air and killed the last guy who survived the fight with the stick damage.

#

I gotta get my adobe stuff on my new PC so I can edit all this footage from today.

bright elm
#

look

#

a whole team

#

threw like 4 arc stars at me

#

in this clip

bright elm
little verge
#

When in doubt, zoning.

#

See, that's why Apex is getting more skilled. We introduced zoning from games like Street Fighter to Apex.

#

It's not "nade spam", it's zoning.

#

Holy shit, I just got jumpscared so fucking bad. Caustic ran into my building through a door without hearing it open, and chucked a barrel right beside me.

#

This audio is a fucking joke.

#

Like not even anything going on, I was listening for his Valk teammate who landed on the roof after I smoked her but I had no way of reaching.

astral pebble
glossy bluff
#

you should be able to thirst people that your teammates are finishing

#

so many people grief me

#

by trying to finish someone while im trying to armor swap

elfin thistle
#

Simply use your teammate as a meat shield

#

What are they gonna do, stop finishing?

little verge
#

I always wonder why if I completely finish someone on my screen but get shot, it still cancels. I can shoot someone in the middle and my teammate just explodes into confetti and they full heal.

#

Like I smoked a Wraith earlier when she did the ground pound, so not even the dropped knee and backflip had finished and she still got the finish off when I hit her with a Wingman.

elfin thistle
#

Often when I'm finishing

#

I get shot

#

But the finish kicks me out of the animation but completes

#

But even tho the enemy dies

#

I don't get any shields

glossy bluff
#

shooting someone point blank with the rampage is actually the worst thing in the game

#

the bullets spray left and right at 90 degrees

elfin thistle
#

Just plug in a roller

#

All of your problems with this game will be solved

wintry scroll
little verge
#

Yeah, horizontal recoil on Rampage is so trash.

#

It's like playing BF1 all over again.

glossy bluff
#

for some reason

#

if you step back just a little bit

#

it becomes super accurate

#

but point blank it isnt

wintry scroll
#

respawn installed an invisible force field on every player with less than 0.80 kd that makes them un-hipfireable at point blank

Season 10 launch was fine

deep linden
#

Midseason + event wasn't

#

S9 wasn't

#

S10 I'm pretty sure I had to wait quite a while to actually get in a game but launch was so horrible to because Seer spams practically made you deaf for the entirety of the game so I wouldn't count that as fine

wintry scroll
#

S10 launch is fine server wise, but balance wise its not

#

seer was just everywhere and it took them 3 weeks to nerf him lol.

my guyyyy

little verge
#

Holy shit, this battlepass is legitimately worse than I thought it was from the trailer.

wintry cypress
#

i already knew it was kinda bad lol

#

only decent thing is the reactive skin, gib skin and bow (maybe)

sinful minnow
#

only like 2 good skins the rest is shit even the prowler skin

wintry cypress
#

prowler skin is dece

#

especially the 110 one imo

#

the reactive prowler is pretty loud tho i believe

little verge
#

Yeah, Gibby/premium bow and reactive are literally the only good things in there.

#

No good emotes or dive animations even, which is shocking.

wintry cypress
#

really?

#

i mean i wasnt gonna buy it yet anyway

#

im just gonna play and not worry about the bp

#

WHAAAATTTT

#

ait fuck this im going to the gym

surreal linden
#

doubt it gets worse

little verge
#

Nah, it really is worse.

#

Before a battlepass could still have like some decent-ish epic skins, emotes, skydive emotes, or charms.

#

This one has fucking NOTHING.

static rose
#

probs the weirdest looking reactive skin

little verge
#

I still think the Wingman one is the worst.

#

Not even from a "it makes it thicker" side of things, but even aesthetically it only looks good closed lol.

static rose
#

and the animation is glitched

kind sandal
#

This map is fucking garbage

fair trellis
#

havent playd it yet

surreal linden
little verge
#

@fair trellis I don't personally think so. Like if someone does decide to camp the other side it's gonna be pretty rough since you can't really deviate while already moving.

fair trellis
#

u cant strafe mid air at all?

little verge
#

But there's usually some zips and other stuff below if you choose to go ground level.

#

So it's not like you HAVE to use them.

fair trellis
#

ah aight

little verge
#

I also gotta admit, I like the CAR. Pattern feels a bit tricky at first but once you get the end horizontal down it's really simple.

surreal linden
#

i loved titanfall car

little verge
#

Hipfire is a beast too.

surreal linden
#

it was my favorite gun

#

genuinely more excited for that then anything else

little verge
#

351 (540 headshot) vs 297 (459 headshot) for R99 too so the damage per mag isn't bad.

deep linden
#

and that mouse basically can correct easier

little verge
#

It totally pulls. The only idiot that says it doesn't have no idea what rotational aim assist is.

#

And that's my biggest issue. It takes a lot of time to build up that kind of reactivity AND smoothness, and you get that for free without even thinking on roller.

deep linden
#

I didn't even move my right stick

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

little verge
#

Yeah, as long as you and the target are moving, it tracks really well.

#

"BUT LOOK IT DOESN'T TRACK HERE" [insert clip of the guy crouched standing still]

deep linden
#

the only people who say aim assist doesn't help are the people who actively counter aim assist by moving their sticks too much

little verge
#

My personal favourite is to get someone to say it doesn't track for them, but keep pressuring them on why AA is bad and they'll always say "well sometimes it tracks someone I'm not trying to shoot."

frank pulsar
#

anyone else didn't get their ranked rewards?

alpine trail
#

bro new season and no server issues????

#

WHAT IS THIS

little verge
#

Yeah, I didn't get my S10 rewards yet.

frank pulsar
#

ah ok

elfin thistle
#

You just can't beat my fingers with your whole arm

#

Smh

little verge
#

I play 100cm/360 just to use nothing but arm, and I still lose PepeHands

elfin thistle
#

Unlucky

#

I use my whole body to play

little verge
#

Not even elbow, I just throw my whole body around while my arm stays in place.

elfin thistle
#

I carry my pad and move it around under the mouse

#

That's how I play

#

It gives me maximum aim

little verge
#

I strap the sensor onto the base of my palm like I'm fucking ironman and just swing my arm around like I'm trained by Mr Miyagi.

#

So I've definitely formulated one issue with the map already, especially with TT back on the ground. It's super sniper heavy since there's tons of open space.

#

And people play pubs like cringe, so expect to get crossfired by 4 teams all running snipers.

elfin thistle
#

Oh what

#

I thought the foliage would make it less sniper heavy

#

Shid

#

Seems like its gonna be another cancer split

#

What's ranked map btw

little verge
#

I'd think WE, but let me double check.

elfin thistle
#

Hopefully Olympus split 2

#

Olympus is sex

little verge
#

Wait, what? It's Storm Point.

#

Usually when they do a new map it's the second part of the split to "help people get used to the map first."

elfin thistle
#

Well

#

It's respawn

#

Gotta give them props

#

The server is actually accessible on launch

#

Pretty much miracle status

little verge
#

I think it's because they're also not offloading tons of resources on giving out ranked rewards day one.

#

Which is surprisingly smart for once.

elfin thistle
#

Did you just suggest respawn isnt smart

#

Wtf man

#

They chose the best publisher

#

Ash launch bundle skin is pretty pog

#

Ngl

little verge
#

I actually like her base legendary skins too.

#

That said, definitely not a big enough update to really keep me playing Apex for much longer, unless BF2042 drops a really poor launch.

map is cool but

Not a single good dropspot

#

Waaaay to much deadspace

wintry cypress
#

That has to be cap

#

Buildings look good honestly

kind sandal
#

Theres so much spaces in the buildings with no loot

wintry cypress
#

At least ranked won't be literal hell

little verge
#

Some buildings are OK, but there's a couple that have these weird ass nooks that you have to wrap around for and it's just poorly pathed.

hoary hamlet
#

nd yea mande does mande shit

but i think the gun is viable

it eats 3 ammo per shot i doubt its gonna be meta longterm

why am I updating this game rn

Because we are masochists.

for pubs yes

for ranked good map

Other than "its shit"

lost harbor
#

yeah for pubs

#

idk abt ranked

#

so bad for pubs

little verge
#

Apex is like reaching into a bag of discarded needles to get the full sized snickers at the bottom. You hate the idea of it, you absolutely don't want to do it, and the reward is certainly not worth it, but you do it anyway.

hoary hamlet

i watched about 10 to 12 teams land in a single spot through the hole thing

#

idk the name

graceful swallow
#

map is dog

#

kc but even bigger

mighty brook
#

map is amazing for ranked

little verge
#

Yeah, I don't think there will be as many third parties just because it's more spread out, open, and has more constricted map flow.

#

Better than KC/Olympus, but probably not better than WE.

#

Middle of the road SMG. Decent damage per mag, great hipfire, slower than R99 DPS.

#

Really easy getting attachments for at least.

magic juniper
#

Do you prefer it to the R99? I usually pref the Volt over the R9

static rose
#

volt is the best smg

little verge
#

Volt has better damage per shot, more perag, and better ranged use, but worse hipfire and DPS.

static rose
#

r99 still the most satisfying to one clip with

little verge
#

So if you're not hipfiring much, Volt is probably still better.

static rose
#

car feels kinda akward rn

#

probs just gotta get used to it

hallow arrow
#

you can miss some shots with the car at least

#

compared to e99

#

r99

little verge
#

Yeah, the last bit is just a bit to the right, left, and right again. Once you get the zig zag and timing down it's pretty controllable.

spice matrix
#

How does the CAR feel rate of fire wise compared to the R99?

little verge
#

Slightly slower, but still controllable.

little verge
#

I love hipfiring so it makes sense why I prefer CAR over Volt. Plus I hate the fire rate of the Volt.

If we had to rank the smgs by like, if you're on your A game, B game, and C game, what would you pref?

static rose
#

strafing pretty much gets rid of recoil as well

magic juniper
#

Usually I run volt because it's more forgiving for whiffs pepeLaff

#

R99 has been slapping recently though. Occasionally I won't suck for a spray or two and it seems insane

little verge
#

You definitely gotta practice the CAR because the tail end of the recoil is pretty much horizontal. The first half is simple, but the side to side pattern will throw you off.

magic juniper
#

Is it a stronger recoil than the Flatline?

little verge
#

You can get it figured out in like 7 or 8 mags though.

magic juniper
#

Oh that's nothing l0l

#

I usually practice the guns I like in Firing Range until I 1-mag the bot

#

from various ranges

little verge
#

Yeah, it's a very balanced and steady left and right horizontal sway, it's more the timing of how long before it switches and back again.

magic juniper
#

inb4 I come back here and be like "Damn ezpz"

#

I recently played pubg for the first time with a friend who plays it a lot

#

The recoil in that game is much stronger. If any of you play other fps, does it make Apex feel arcade-y?

little verge
#

Yeah, Apex is definitely arcadey, but that's fine given the movement.

#

Pubg the recoil makes sense given the slow movement and how it takes time to build momentum or stop from a running start.

magic juniper
#

Yeah Apex's movement makes "playing defense" much stronger

It's been fun having the Triple Take as floor loot. So satisfying when you hit your shots.

#

Funny enough I'm better at solo pubs on kings canyon then WE or Olympus

Olympus is the best map

#

WE is pretty entertaining

There is only one valid landing spot on WE

Only criticism I have is to not peak so predictably

which was unnecessary

the only time i would climb on top of box there is if he was close to you

and hiding behind box

so you minimize

the amount of damage you take

#

Gonna give the map a new chance today, atleast I got some sleep

if i were to do something different, i would've done a 360 spin superglide off the box one tap him tap strafe out super glide on box again and kill lifeline

@little verge tried out the CAR and it feels average like you said. Might be a step up from the alternator with some practice

perhaps it is true

this map is totally bs

it's hands down the worst pub map

mellow kestrel

it was on shitty TV with hella input lag but the AA is strong

#

af

lost harbor
#

:/ guess it's still the same then

mellow kestrel
#

console AA is weird

#

feels inconsistent

#

but it can suddenly like lock on the target and just give you 100% perfect tracking

#

pc AA feels more consistent kinda

#

console AA just sometimes really kicks in and doesnt miss a shot

Still trying for my first 3k

#

any tips

viscid wraith
#

use weapons that have range

#

301 will get you a 3k so ez if you play for farming damage

#

4ks require a bit more aggression, 3ks you can just get by playing passive

lusty vault
#

ok I’ll try for one tonight

#

301 charge rifle

honestly though anything ur good with will work

viscid wraith
#

yeah ranked is infinitely easier than pubs

#

my only 4k was sending everyone in plat on pathfinder

#

insane how much easier this game is with teamates, imagine that kekw

#

altho i would recommend not playing ranked for a couple of days if you dont have a premade since all the streamers and 3 stack console cunts are gonna be on

mellow kestrel
#

yep ranked until diamond+ is easier than pubs

simple narwhal
#

don’t go charge rifle + 301 for 4k

you’ll most likely get raped by a team that decides to push you before you reach 4k

wraith then

viscid wraith
#

i think wattson is a better character than pathfinder rn sadge

#

hope he gets some love this season

lusty vault
#

Why path so bad

viscid wraith
#

giant character, no passive, his tacticals cooldown is just bad now and its not even that much better than other movement legends by much, his ult is only really useful in combat if the enemy is complete dogshit and doesnt know how to do any vertical tracking

#

if you lose a gunfight to a pathfinder he is either significantly better than you or shot first

#

flying fridge

#

#

i fuckin love the character so much, but he is pain to play compared to everyone else

i would literally rather play caustic cause i can block doors with barrels and self peel with ult sadge

i was on london servers getting like 60 ping when i usuallly get 20 but idk

its been varying from game to game

some games i'll get like lag and some stutters from the packet loss and other games it'll be completely fine with no issues

alpine trail
#

a couple of my lobbies have been weird

#

usually 30-40 ping but randomly mid to late game will drop to 100+ ping

but it doesn’t happen often

better than the whole server imploding

also his roller settings are goated

Imagine two patterns, two sets of stats, and two sounds of gunfire based on the ammo. Too much for their playerbase to think about sadly.

versed shale
#

I just sorta imagined lower fire rate but more dmg with heavy and faster fire rate and less dmg but I guess if they did something like that it would replace another gun or be too strong so it makes sense

Yeah, if it was too versatile it'd probably ruin the dynamics between the R99 and Volt.
