Yeah, this is what I've been doing so far, but it seems it only tracks wins if you had a full squad.
All I really know is, is that I've been in the top 3 54 times.

The only shotgun that can one-shot you is the Mastiff, which is a gold drop. Any smg should be able to kill a fully armored opponent in one magazine. You'll get a feel for it, just keep going for headshots.
Yeah they're almost perfect. For Pathfinder maybe an extra meter or two on his grapple cable, for Caustic maybe increase the poison damage to 3 or 5 per tick. Bangalore maybe lengthen smoke's cooldown a hair.
I decided to try this on my PC since I really suck at playing FPS games on gamepads.
So Apex Legends worked fine in wine (no pun intended) but apparently EA doesn't like the linux users even if EAC supports wine profiles and are now locking out the users.
I don't understand why they would do this when their anti-cheat client has wine profiles in the first place.
The OP of the latter reddit link explains it much better than me but I'm actually very annoyed now as EA has actively taken steps to prevent linux users from playing.
I guess it's a matter of two steps forward, one step back for linux games. I've never ran into this particular problem before since I don't usually play online games and especially not FPS games.. But this one kind of ticked my interest for some reason.

Yes please! I don't want to got through and count how many wins I have lol
I would imagine F2P players leads to more fodder players. Games that have a 60$ pricetag lead to players that are more serious about their shooting games and likely employ more challenge as a result. Reduced player count also directly means that you have a higher chance of winning even if the skill level of the players was the same.
Ha, literally the exact reason I got him over Mirage. I popped like 4 rare Caustic skins, and that was that.
As someone who had basically the same issue of being rubbish this time last year with Fortnite where I'd basically hadn't played much in the way of competitive shooters. All I can say is try and find some other like minded people to play with and just keep at it. I played with friends quite a bit and eventually I got better. Enough so that I managed to transition to this well enough getting a few kills every game, which isn't the best, but I'm happy enough that I'm not awful anymore.
Maybe they'll add some casual modes like in Fortnite.
Tell me about it. He's the only character I don't have, but the loot boxes have given me some of the best stuff for him, including an animated pose, which you know, would be lovely if it were for a character I can actually use.
I've been playing Caustic completely the wrong way. The Nox mines and grenade have little to do with damage and almost everything to do with tagging enemies. You can get a really good idea of where they are and where they aren't even if none of your mines are disturbed.
I honestly think a QoL improvement would be preventing people from getting cosmetics for characters they don't own. It's just a huge frustration.
Yep, in your Inventory, pin the ammo icon ON the gun, not the actual ammo.
Yeah I kinda just assumed that would be the case when I first jumped in.
I'd guess it's their way to encourage people to buy new heroes.
Just shows the gun and attachments you have without all the other screen clutter
Not sure why people keeps choosing crowded drop areas. Like you might now where's the good stuff,but I definitely don't...
because it is fun to shoot people in this shooting game, and it is considerably less fun to run around rural environs for 10 minutes without any action or conflict
I'd take a game where I get 5 kills and come in 15th over a game where I get first place with 1 kill every time
My buddies and I always go for the top right corner of the map. Never run into trouble and there's like 2 dozen crates and 5 buildings just empty. High tier loot area.
I scream internally whenever someone tries to drop at the ship. It's like going for the boost off a faceoff in Rocket League. Whyyyyy.
Yeah click the ping button on the ammo type by your weapon in the inventory screen.
The thing is, there are areas that are tagged as "higher tier" loot, but it's not set spawn points. It just means the area as a whole has a higher percentage of Blue/Purple items. You could drop into a Blue Area that has 10 Mozambiques and 5 Ulti Boosts for all that means. The only place each round you're guaranteed to find one really good gun is the blue circle that has a guaranteed "Golden Gun".
Yes..I got the Offensive one so far, finished second in my second match...today must be my lucky day.
I haven't used Bloodhound much, but his ability gives you a static idea of where people are right? With Caustic I can seen the moving through smoke - they have to look past the smoke and I can see them highlighted.
Way to many players in party chat is my biggest issue if they want to promote team play as they say party chat needs to be disabled. Playing solo I'm constantly matched with parties of two who are in party chat watching me wipe whole squads while they stand around like potatoes.
I turned the game off in frustration lastnight due to awful teammates it's starting to really frustrate me tbh. This games awful without a 3 man group sometimes. In 3 hours of gameplay last night I had maybe two guys with mics.
Enemies can't see you in your gas, but you can see their outline. It's almost like wallhacking.
Takes off all the extra rubbish that fills the screen when picking up something. Try it
Is it cynical of me to suspect maybe they're intentionally dropping more shit for characters you don't own?
I think it's really inconsistent. Hitboxes seem to be inaccurate and sometimes TTK is long, other times it's way too short. Almost every gun feels the same and different classes aren't different enough to me. Not the best comparison, but I think the gunplay in Destiny is better and more coherent.
I know I'm the minority with this opinion so I don't expect serious changes, which is bit of a shame as I really like the overall atmosphere and aesthetic of the game.
Honestly dropping is random. I've dropped in hotzones or in the flight path and nobody is around. Sail to the far reaches out the map and find four groups with you.
Can't predict other peoples choices on the drop really in any br. One match may have more passive players who want to be far from the flight path and the next may be aggressive players sailing straight down asap to any bigger loot area.
Some of the areas are big, so if you see a group you need to loot and work your way away from them unless you have items to immediately engage them and hope to catch them with nothing. No need to loot towards another party if you don't find at least a gun and shields. No shame either in bailing on an area and looting on the run to another spot.

Oh boy... getting your squatmates killed, then activating Bloodhounds Beast Of The Hunt and killing the enemy squad is such a satisfying feeling. Makes you feel like a real badass predator.
This game! I wish they would come up with something better for me to support it though. I just feel no need to spend any money on it at all.
Level 10 now and got my 4th win. Having a blast! I went ahead and bought the Founder's Pack and Starter's Pack to show Respawn some love. Will probably grab the Battle Pass as soon as it's available.
That was my first thought, I think they do just want you to pressure you in to buying him.

Mirage is my favorite for sure. His passive saved my skin numerous times.
The game is growing in popularity exponentially and this is its first weekend. Of course there are going to be hiccups. It's a free to play game why are you tweeting at the devs, they've already acknowledged several issues and are working on it.
caustic owns and is my favorite to play, although if I had money riding on the game I almost certainly wouldn't pick him
more than any legend, his teammates can easily force him into games in which he gets little or no value out of his kit. i think there are other plenty-good characters that can similarly have games where they don't substantially get value, but that that's more a product of their choices or forces outside the team's control, not their teammates

Destiny has top tier gunplay but this isn't far behind imo. Not sure how you can actually think the guns feel the same. They vary so much by spread, damage, and recoil. I personally love the ttk. We have enough games with quick ttk, let there be something different
