Volt looks sexy as hell, as expected. Serious meh at map changes instead of a new map, no map changes in the world could make me want to play WE.

 

[Thing on a Spring]

"It's potty time!"

I'm a little miffed that there doesn't seem to be a new map but the few changes to WE in the video look good. New SMG looks interesting. Pretty hyped from that. Who is the voice over?

 

[Thing on a Spring]

It's weird getting used to controller again.

 

[Tesseract]

randoms until my mind crashes or heart stops, push ups and pull ups with every loss

 

[IbizaPocholo]

 

[Tesseract]

where's the fooking patch notes

 

[Boss Mog]

s06 gameplay reveal today at 11 am est

grats to the team

Sucks that there's no new map. I'm not sure about the whole crafting thing either. We'll see though. Valk/Nova was supposed to be Season 7 Legend but it looks like they might put Blisk instead.

 

[Tesseract]

it's a boring trailer, by the numbers with enhancements that should've been added many seasons ago

i don't like the development pace at all, should be seeing significant patches every month and map changes / week

i think the team is being grossly mismanaged by incompetent producers

 

[Tesseract]

doc is right when he says it's a snoozefest out there (at every level)

we're knee deep in a generation of devs that have no business making competitive shooters

feels like death

They're blaming COVID-19. They did start that office up JUST for Apex so we'll see how it goes once things calm down. They have no excuse once things go back to normal.

This is rough on the devs but I do agree that the seasons are way too long. Hell, Warzone has only been out for about 9 months and it is on season 5 but Apex is going on 1 year and half is on season 6, this is a problem. It is a shame because Apex's gameplay is there, it is everything else that is holding it back.

I wouldn’t really compare this to Warzone, at all. There’s a large legend and lore component here that shouldn’t be forgotten.

Honestly, all they seem to have in common is a rough genre.

With that said, I agree that the pacing of new content feels far too slow, and bugs/flaws aren’t fixed fast enough.

 

[Tesseract]

last day of the season

everyone jump into random trios and enjoy the ride

 

[Thing on a Spring]

Had my best performance yet just now. Was down to me vs 2 members of the last team, cracked both of their shields but couldn't clutch it out in the end. Still, I got my 3000 damage badge and one for killing all three members of three different teams. Adrenaline still pumping.

 

[IbizaPocholo]

 

[Tesseract]

that title makes me sad

it's aight i main rev now

Will do that exactly. Love that they grasp the concept large studios inherently lose something.

Also I did a thing with the Kraber, 377 one shot damage. Ouch.

 

[Thing on a Spring]

Are we getting patch notes today? My girl is getting a buff of some sort so I'm keen to see what it is. The devs say its not a big one so I'm gonna predict a drop in the post teleport cool down or hopefully removing it entirely.

[Tesseract]

most of these changes are excellent, i'm especially fond of the armor meta

(stop stealing my ideas)

grats to the team

 

[Thing on a Spring]

Loba's change is meh.

Hemlock is going be more fun.

Bloodhound is going to be a relentless scanning machine in ultimate.

I like the changes to shields.

Crypto being able to instantly respawn team mates using the drone is pretty nuts. I like it though.

Not sure how I feel about crafting yet, I'll need some time with it.


Some good stuff in there. Kind of annoyed they brought the launch forward to today because I'll be in bed when it goes live but thems the breaks.

 

[Tesseract]

ja, that crypt change brings him full circle with improved viability

 

[Thing on a Spring]

I'll definitely be going back and giving him another go. I tried when he came out but I just couldn't make him work at the time. Very interested now.

 

[Tesseract]

i'm absolutely crippled by these path changes

needs something else, maybe two graps / cd

gonna keep playing rev

 

[Tesseract]

octane buff is pretty awesome, stim heals without slow brings puts him in a magical place

 

[Tesseract]

bique finally where it belongs with 4 shots

3 was far too limiting in the early game without the lucky hop

 

[Thing on a Spring]

I was confused by that.

Stim: Can now use Stim while healing, but stim will not remove the slow you incur from healing.

So does he get a stim boost but still take the heal slow which would leave him moving slightly faster than a normal run? Or a normal walk?

oh, right

this is a language problem, normal walk seems more likely

 

[Tesseract]

still a nice change, back to where he was in earlier seasons

still waiting for bhop heals ...

 

[Tesseract]

has valk been pushed back, no mention of jetpacks outta any dev streams?

nova has come to ...

 

[Thing on a Spring]

Pathfinder's new BP costume is wicked. Almost makes me want to play him.

 

[Tesseract]

ya, those bp legend skins are nice

 

[Tesseract]

ggs, this seems like enough content to keep the game fresh

i'm looking forward to whatever becomes of halloween this year

 

[Gaz]

When is crossplay out for this? Desperately waiting to jump on and play this with my mates on consoles.

From what I've read, they have only said to expect it in fall. Haven't seen a set date.

 

[Werewolf Jones]

Hate this games fanbase NGL. You get some new content and some mix ups to change the game and all the little kids complain about it.

EDIT: Btw I would have increased Black Market loot to 3 slots than drop the time for it personally.

 

[IbizaPocholo]

 

[Tesseract]

oh hell yeah, 1am release

was wondering what you meant by sleep Thing on a Spring

fuq my circadians up

 

[Tesseract]

getting some, enjoying these last few hours before the season reset

It's the same over on Fort. All you can hope for is that the developer has the wisdom to understand that their customers don't start and end at whiny little shits on the internet.

 

[Tesseract]

fun game just now, uploading to youtube ...

 

[Tesseract]

god my mind is scattershot, forgot to press upload

last game of the season, not great not terrible yet gives you a decent idea of the kind of randoms you can encounter on pc

 

[Tesseract]

about an hour to go until the patch and season reset

 

[RPS37]

I’m hyped, but this update is still pretty damn huge.

 

[Boss Mog]

Jeez I can't believe they buffed the Hemlock it was already so good. I'm telling you guys, if you're not rocking the Hemlock, you need to because in single-fire mode there's nothing better at mid to long range. It just drops people. Burst-fire when they get a bit closer.

 

[Thing on a Spring]

Started the update before I left for work, roll on home time. Have fun bruddas.

 

[Werewolf Jones]

I'm impressed with how swift item management is on PC.

Used to use it in S3. Might pick it back up as I've been using it recently.

 

[GreatnessRD]

Volt is 100% broken. No recoil, fast, Good Lord almighty. Thing is nasty in the field. Gold Armor is completely useless and should be removed now. Not a fan of the less armor and TTK now, but I'll make it shake. Map is "meh", but I guess it'll grow on me.
