Can enemies see his gas pods before they blow? He says he's "setting a trap" when you drop one but it sure is a big ass, obvious trap.

Yeah, they seem like the biggest balance issue in the game ATM, the whole class feels weak. There's maybe more merit to the Prowler if you can get that attachment that makes it full auto, but the LMGs are really fuckin' good and so is the Peacekeeper.
The Mozambique seems absolutely terrible to me too which is a bummer since I loved that gun in Titanfall. It only headshots for 66 or so with a full hit and only having three shots before a reload feels weird compared to the other shotties.
They can but you can put them inside next to a door or something so they run into it. He plays well indoors since he can trap doors and windows like that.
They're more for area denial than outright damage though, like if you drop them and shoot them to trigger them and block off a pathway you're still getting value from it since positioning is huge in a BR.
I want to use snipers but on consoles I am GARBAGE with them despite being a very solid sniper in most other games. I got a Kraber once and just squandered it. On consoles, I kinda see it as more of a pestering/harrasment thing or to get big damage on a standing still target.
I think its gonna be succesful but don't get too excited. Sea of Thieves was huge when its first public builds came and quicky died out. Resurged recently but only due to summit and friends mainly.
No different than a fighting game that has S tier and trash tier characters. The solo queue meta will be pretty well defined. It'll also make the unlikely victories using a garbage character even more fulfilling.
Just make everyone this guy
Passive ability: Wallrunning
Other ability: Grapple
Ultimate ability: None
Let people unlock skins and different helmets for him.
This is what I hope they consider. But Wallrunning isn't happening and the map is not built for it. Just keep the grapple on cool down and then make things like the Dome Shield, personal shield, etc. pick ups.
Titanfall 2 had some perks, they can be pick ups like in COD Blackout or something. This BR game could be the best in that the Team modes are inherently different than the solo mode, but they both offer something unique.

This game really wants me to play Pathfinder. I've already got 3 skins for him, one being purple (I can't remember what it's called in this)
Im starting to hate when your random teammates bale on you in the middle of a match. Had a few games where i ended up just camping it to get to 3rd or 4th at least.
Ffs, was down to my team and another which we was likely to win, only for us to get an electric surge which flipped the fuse box.
I'm just happy I have a surge protector these days as I lost a surround sound system to that shit before.

Wallrunning by itself is useless, while momentum and slidehopping would literally break the map. The game is not designed for it.
Ok, so my last match... a few mins in and this happens...
Luckily the other person was responding to both pings and text chat, so we moved together and took down a squad and got geared up.
Finally the third player joined us, only to promptly die... but I took out the kill leader and 2 of his team by myself which was a huge rush, then got killed by another squad but my decent team mate rushed in returned the favour. The other team mates banner had de-spawned during the firefight, so we were 2/3
They re-spawned me )what a great mechanic), we ran back to our spot and I retrieved my weapons and mods. At this point were in a very small circle. 3 squads remaining.
We roamed about guarding each other and managed to take out another squad together. The final squad was behind a rock... I dropped my Lifeline ultimate supply pod on them and took one out (thanks for the tip ITT whoever shared that!)t, the other rushed out and we I got the final kill!
I was so focused I didn't even know how many were left, and the win screen suddenly pops up.
I was feeling down about this game thinking my FPS skills had all but withered, but now I have a feel for it and I think this has me hooked.
Great game, the team mechanics really set it apart from every other team based shooter I've played. I really hope this system is copied and becomes ubiquitous.

Yea I'd be down for that. Would be nice to have grapple tho.
R-301, Peacekeeper, and ammo and that round will probably be a W for me.
So I only managed to play one match, and while I did enjoy the gameplay a lot, my squad wasn't very great. Granted I don't have a microphone, but I felt the ping system worked as supplement to the mic. Is there any indication there may be a solo mode? I just can't imagine enjoying the game for an extended period of time with randoms.
Grapple would be nice but they would require a change to Pathfinder since I think two heroes having the same ability is kind of redundant.
There is a "Wins with Full Teams" stat tracking card you can equip per character.
Go to the Banners tab and then scroll down to the 3 Tracker options and put it in one of those slots. It's a cheap one to buy with materials.
R-301 continues to be my favorite assault rifle ever. Shame I only seem to get one ever few rounds though.
Still yet to find a Mastiff.
I was thinking more along the lines of the Pilot being a solo-mode only hero.
Nvidia pls release a hotfix for that device hung error....I am thirsty for more wins but I keep crashing in the middle of matches.
Oh that's cool! Would still like a more indepth stats page that tracks your overall wins etc though.
Peacekeeper has better range and more damage on a single shot. To me it kind of feels like Pump Shotguns vs Tactical Shotguns in Fortnite. Trading off range and damage for faster fire rates.
Same. Titanfall 1 had a graph that tracked your K/D over the last 5 games and Blackout had this, too. Would like to see it here.
Finally got around to trying this, it's fantastic! This is coming from a guy who doesn't play Battle Royale games. I've tried the big ones before and they are fine but just not my thing. Apex feels so good though and everything is done so smartly. I enjoy the forced groups and because of how well you can communicate without a mic, it just works and it's fun! It feels like a sweet spot between and Battle Royale and a typical team death match which is what I normally prefer. It's definitely my go to multiplayer game for the foreseeable future I think.
Thanks for this. I was wondering if it was like Blackout in that way, but every time I'm jumpmaster I'm too concerned with screwing it up to play around with the diving/flying physics.
We need a solo mode first before thinking about that lol it will be interesting to see how they attempt to balance a Solo mode.
I couldn't disagree more. Fortnite leaves the impression of being the opposite of accessible. It's the building, man. It is by nature intimidating and a pain point for quite a few regular players of the game. You know, the people who've been playing for months and still hate to build anything but a box and a ramp. Those are people that would rather not build anything at all and are playing more or less because their friends and celebs started playing it so they did too. Game is good enough to stick for them, but not impregnable. Fortnite will be on top for the foreseeable future because it got in early and is on every platform including mobile phones. Well, for 3rd person shooters, anyway. But this game looks better, feels better to play from moment to moment, offers superior map design, has better communication features, and flat out better ideas going on. The number of hero moments possible in this game and the excitement they offer is something special.
But certainly if you need the scratch the 3rd person BR itch or need to get back to godly building, there's only one place to go. Everyoone else: the Apex line is over here.
Haha so let me rephrase. A lot of people say solo mode would be hard because heroes have different abilities. Some say just remove the abilities but then the hitboxes would be different per Hero. What I'm sharing is have the Pilot be the only Hero you can play as in Solo mode, it would be balanced for everyone.
Having a blast with this game but had a pretty frustrating situation I didn't know how to handle.
When it gets to the final bubbles, the bubble shifts from where the safe areas are. But the safe area I was in didn't shift to the new one; instead the whole thing just shrank and I died in the storm. Are there just some sections of the map that can be sandwiched between the storm and I'm just fucked?

Yeah, I definitely agree. I was putting up with Fortnite building because PUBG still runs like ass on console. Now that I have this game I doubt I'll ever play Fortnite again. Assuming they add in common sense modes like solo queue and practice range.
Also, the shorthand is "ApeLeg." GOAT.
Just joined a match, someone left my party before we even jumped and I got a nice message from them. "Don't want to play with noobs".
I'm level 7 and was using a new character so had 0 kills.
:(

Got my first win earlier after like 15 total games 🙏🏻 Quickest I've ever won a battle royale, hopefully the wins keep rolling in
Strangely I've found the most success with broken squads. Squads of 2 play safer and are less likely to do stupid shit that gets you killed. I probably get into the final 4 squads with 2 or solo at a 75% rate. Probably a 30% rate for a full group of 3. lol
this. not since Overwatch launch and Titanfall launch before it.
Had that happen to me and a friend just two days ago. We could have won the match too but after a really good team fight they just left.
It's possible they crashed. At least yesterday I had my first crash loading the character select and a crash after picking some items up. PS4 Pro btw.
So much this.
Of my 3 wins so far, 2 were mostly just duos for most of the game.
Maybe it's just easier to manage.
Oh gotcha! Yeah that could be one approach they take to ensure Solo mode is balanced but I fear that would fragment the playerbase and go against the nature of the game. I definitely think there is room to add a Piolet character in Squads thought regardless.
