I tried Apex Legends
Bit of background: I have never been big at PvP or Co-op in general. Battle Royale as a genre is a cool concept to me because of stories like Hunger Games, so I do like trying some of the free ones out there but have never found one I liked. Also, I am generally not a fan of EA and have never touched Respawn game until this day.
But Apex Legends does it for me I think. I tried it today and mained Bloodhound and I came away with more of an incentive to play a PvP game than I have for a long time. The combat was smooth for one thing, the aesthetic was pleasant, the character design was up my alley as well.
Bloodhound even gave me a stand out moment in my PvP career: Tracking. I was actually able to track a live character's footprints like a ranger/hunter and follow him across a countryside to gun him down. The great part of it was that my partner in voice chat was just as impressed at the ability as I was. The sneaky fool would've gotten out alive if it weren't for that ability.
Speaking of communication, the ping system is a great system for those of us who don't use Voice chat all that often. I was able to tactically communicate with my random squad on Voice chat and wipe squad after squad (something I haven't been able to much of in most games. *to self* Get Gud!).
Just my two cents worth that if the game impresses a non PvP gamer that usually sticks to assassinating post apocalyptic Caesars than you know the game is at least doing something right.

Apex has all but consumed me. A BR done right, by competent devs who actually went out of their way to mention EA will have no part in their game aside from publishing. Sort of makes sense why they didn’t do advertising with that name attached to their product..

2 RepliesI do not like BRs all that much (I hate the building in Fortnite) but Apex Legends is genuinely fun for me. I love the hero mechanic and the abilities are nice. I’m loving Pathfinder, grappling around is so much fun

1 ReplyThe ping system is super useful, now I can actually ask for stuff from my allies without talking to them!

I've been telling people that that Shishka is friggin cool. Best game in the world...? pfffttt he better do better next time. :)

9 RepliesIt is fun, G7 best gun XD

2 RepliesI would like it a lot better if there was wall-running and stuff. But that’s just me.

... until I took an arrow to the knee

8 RepliesJust a question of curiosity: Does Apex take place in the same canon as Titanfall? Both games share some guns.

5 RepliesI hate being partnered with people of certain... backgrounds. I don't like being fifteen minutes into a round and hearing "aye mane gimme that precision choke fo dat peacekeeper shit or I might just not revive yo bitch ass" when I'm carrying them with a kraber. If I'm not wiping squads for them these types of people are like "you ass" and it's a huge motivation to just mute everyone at the beginning of the game. Squeakers too. I HATE squeakers.

1 ReplyI played one match. Fall down, look for a gun you don't like but need to use because it's the only one you can find, run around looking for a dude to kill, find a dude and shoot him, get killed by 3 dudes who suddenly appear behind him. I don't think i did it right.

I don't like the battle royal genre myself, but Apex Legends is probably the best one I played. I also liked the aesthetics and the combat felt the same as Titanfall 2, which is a good thing. Also, no wall building to the sky and all that stuff. Still don't prefer the genre, but this is a very good looking game, that has some cool combat with the hero's.

3 RepliesI want solo queue. Even with the callouts etc etc I'm still pretty terribad. Liability status. I mean, hook it up with 2 equally clueless team mates and it's cool. But this is what's holding me back =/

9 RepliesGot two Ws yesterday with a friend. But let me tell you: nothing is worse to your experienced team members than having a level 2 bloodhound or Gibraltar queue in.

1 ReplyEdited by LittleLight: 2/17/2019 5:39:04 PMHonestly I'm tired of battle royale games. PUBG was great and playing with friends was always fun until it got boring. Minecraft hunger games is the only battle royale I would play. [spoiler]I'm serious, it's actually fun with friends even though i haven't played in ages.[/spoiler] [spoiler]Roblox has a good one too right?[/spoiler]

3 RepliesBloodhound is the best [spoiler]This post was made by the Bloodhound gang[/spoiler]
