View Full Version : Does anyone play Apex?
Not sure if this is crossplay or not. I'm playing on PS4. I think it is.
I'm about to be silver but i suck and looking for some partners. I have a mic.
I really hate these battle royal type games but Apex has hit the middle ground for me between Warzone and Overwatch.

It has crossplay. Same name, search with the in game finder. Not online quite much these days.

friend request sent. I'm only silver 3 if you ever are on
I've gotten better because of just playing a lot but also because i've spent time toying with my aiming settings. That is a huge thing to do in this game and i'm playing on PS4.
I wont put money in this game. But i have grinded to a character unlock and I watched a lot of videos and decided Loba was my favorite as far as mechanics and abilities. I play her and Bangalore a lot. Gibby is not my thing though i know he's a upper class in this game atm.
I solo que all the time and people constantly drop us in a hostile spot. It drives me insane! I used to hate being the drop master but now i'm taking it when i get it because assholes keep dropping in where people are dropping in and it's a race/fire fight and it sucks and you can't gain RP that way!
Drives me insane.

And I don't do that drop into a brawl thing unless I know I can capitalize.

Name is Sandersplex
I do have Mic, but i rather not talk on mic. But if you ever play with me and insist, I will, no issues. I'm more chill without a mic.

It's high risk, high reward. Hot zones have the best gear. But it's only viable if the whole team is micced up and sticks together. RIGHT KALYX?!

I did not know I could go backwards after a level up. But I did. I went back to Silver 4 and then had a good round and got back to Silver 3.
I love and hate this game. I need a squad to go with.

Have to say I've never seen what all the hype is about battle royale games, but if other people enjoy it, then it's whatever.

I've felt that way too, but Apex feels different. I used to play Overwatch. Apex feels like Overwatch and Call of Duty had a baby.
I really like it.

Only thing I've been able to tolerate that has even something of a resemblance to anything battle royale-ish is Arms Race in Borderlands 3, but that's because you literally start with nothing and get starter gear and try and fight to win legendary stuff exclusive to the mode by "extracting" it to your Sanctuary III safe. It's just different enough than typical BL to be fun, but not an obnoxiously full-on battle royale mode.
Oh, yeah the big catch is the whole time you have to avoid a "Murdercane", which encroaches closer and stays stationary at varying phases. It's this huge windy, icy, snowy hurricane/tornado thing and if you get caught by it, it chips away at your shields and then your HP, until it either downs you or you get out of it's area of influence. Eventually it will get to a point where it forces you to go to face the boss, who can drop any Arms Race legendaries once defeated, and is guaranteed to drop at least one.

I have no idea what you're implying here. I am a model team player of exceptional regard.

I was once a heavy hater of BR games. It's something you don't really 'get' until your first top 5 nail biter. And def the rush of a top three battle with the closing circle will hook you.
Battle Royales tell a 'story'. Each time slightly different. A begining, middle, and finale all have certain tones to them. I went from wondering what the big deal was to Apex being a regular rotation in my game sessions.

I dunno. I mean, I've watched the odd stream where a BR was used as a "warm-up" for whatever the main game for the day was going to be, and I still didn't "get it". I don't necessarily hate them, but I think I'll stick to only playing "battle royales" as a match type in wrestling games.

Exactly my issue with them. I don't really have an interest in trying to build my own cover to protect myself in an effort to try to be the last one standing or whatever other concept is offered. Then again, I fully realize, understand and accept that I'm not by any means the target demographic for those types of games.

Well there you go, you're watching it. It's a game. Give it a shake, it might surprise you. But if you're still unimpressed that's just how it is. All I can say is the concept grew on me.

I've played it a handful of times because my son plays the hell out of it right now. He sometimes asks me to play with him, and it's 99.99% of the time big ole 'nope".
Sounds like bad dadding, but god damn that game is awful.

Why does this have to be a "You don't really know if you like something or not until you've tried it firsthand, bro." argument?
I've never tried hemlock either, but I don't have to drink it to know I don't want to be poisoned to death.

They... they're videogames. Playing them is the default experience. As a consumer product it's perfectly fair to watch gameplay and decide to pass, we don't owe devs playtime or a purchase, but in the age of F2P games there's literally nothing to lose seeing for sure. And I say this as a guy who's very critical of games to the point of snobbery.

I mean, I already don't have enough time in the day to play all the games I want to play. I've got a huge back log to get through, and so I definitely don't have time to be playing something I know I'm gonna hate. Not to mention those games are notoriously filled with lobbies screaming all kinds of obscenities and profanities at each other that I just do not need to hear - the cons vastly outweigh the pros.

Actually no a typical BR is just you and two others. And if the two others are randoms playing music or screaming a single button mutes them. Even in Arena Shooters the old 'toxic lobbies' thing is dead nobody really uses mic anymore.

Nonetheless, not to invalidate anything you've said but my mind has been made up since long before this whole back-and-forth.
