I don't think warzone is going to be for me. As a seasoned Apex player I know how infuriating it is when team mates quit out the moment they're killed or even when you have their banner....

So from what I've seen of Warzone's revive system....no one is waiting around for that.

I will however remain open minded and still give the game a chance.

Final ring, 2v2, other team is hiding inside a rock formation and there is a care package with a purple armor in it. As Octane, I throw a jump pad under the armor just in case. Other team pops out and downs my buddy, I down one of them and crack the other's armor. The last enemy goes to armor swap the purple and gets bounced, via jump pad, into the zone and is killed by it. Win. I love it when a plan comes together.

Anyone getting that bug where they have nades in their bag but cant throw them? The character just gets stuck in the animation.
It's gotten me killed a few times and I'm really getting annoyed with it.

Funnily enough I've gotten that a couple times with Caustic, where he just holds his barrel until I switch weapons

Alright, I am fully on the PS4 side right now. I know i ma getting the advantage of bot lobbies because my account is level 10, but my shots connect better on PS4 than either other platform, so far I am doing very well in the games, even when occasionally put in with level 100 players, and despite my issues with the controller it feels the most fun. Wish I had not bough that founders pack thing on both of the other consoles though.

I've been thinking for a little while that they could probably have 2 tiers of small target. Path and Wraith are considerably harder to hit than Lifeline, Revenant, or Wattson. Maybe a 5% and a 7.5%? 10 seems like it'd be too much.

They need to redo her body size and anims full stop, if it takes months to re rig and retarget her so be it, her size is such an advantage as she becomes unhittable with some guns altogether.

I unlocked the level 100 Flatline today. I've got over 100 Legendary skins and that Flatline is one of my favorite ones. Probably the best looking weapon skin, it's for an awesome gun, has better iron sights, battle pass reward and not 1800 coins, what's not to like?

In case you didn't know, you get here by winning the game tries to never pick someone who's AFK during character selection. So if you don't want to be jump master, select your legend before queueing.

I have played for 3 hours tonight and I don't think I've had so much as a gun fight. No good loot anywhere, match after match, when I do get it we get killed by two squads not fighting each other and killing us instead. Just infuriating.

The worst are these teammates who solo push a whole squad encamped in one building in the final circle. What the fuck are you expecting?

Yup. If you select your character and the other two don't, you're jumpmaster. If you pick last, you're jumpmaster if you don't idle it.

I usually do that so I don't jump but randoms will almost always drop you mirage/capital.

A friend and I found a path that worked well enough to give us some wins and finishing among top squads at worst (Deja Loot)

Falling on The Geiser, you can find two Blue Shields and a Purple one, a couple of prowlers, longbog, havoc and R-301, among other good ites, If you follow the road towards the center of the map, you'll find on your way the select fire for the prowler and more purple shields. On Friday the ring closed a bit far, which meant that the game was a slower pace match, while the next days it was closer and matches became more intense. The path was pretty clear with the items you find though, several upgrades to the weapons you find before or after, in a linear path.

Yeah, Geyser has been our go-to for most of Deja Loot. Reliable loot for everyone, then roll through the tunnel to Fragments or go Sorting/Harvester (depending on the circle).
I don't mind the mode. Looking forward to revisiting KC at least. My regular squad is pretty lukewarm to it, though. I can understand the frustrations people have with the mode.

In today's version of "wtf Apex", my peacekeeper challenge has decided not to track any of my peacekeeper kills. brb going to launch myself into traffic.

Yep. If you wanted to be right on target to finish 110 on the last day, you'd have to be level 42 right now.

Really? That's good news for me then since I'm level 55 right now. I haven't been playing everyday, but still want to get to 110.

Interesting. Prior to the game's launch, I was debating on what platform I wanted to play on and decided PS4, primarily because of friends, but also because it seemed like it could have the highest playerbase (I'm not sure if this is the case). Your experience that the game seems to run best for you on PS4 is pretty interesting for sure.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In regards to the new CoD battle royale, I already attracted a bunch of heat in that thread by saying I though it didn't look particularly good. People really love their Call of Duty and really don't like people being critical towards it I guess! Since OG Infinity Ward's decay, I've never really understood the enduring appeal of the series, but man it has lasted for some reason.

Not even going to waste my time, because I know it might be a fun novelty for about a day, but then I'll get absolutely sick of all of the bullshit it is guaranteed to have/its inferior moment-to-moment gameplay.

My life for a fucking team that doesn't have randos splitting up and getting picked off just once tonight.

Just one time.

Just wait until Warzone drops in a couple hours, CoD is supposed to be huge so I wouldn't be surprised if a ton of people ditched Apex for it. Not just for the day, longterm. Funny that Deja Loot will be on Kings Canyon from tonight.

I hope not too many jump ship in the long term. I will definitely give it a go, but I can't see myself spending that much time on Call of Duty gameplay.

Yeah, I've probably played more of Apex in a week then all of Call Of Duty games combined, never really hooked me. Blackout was my first BR experience and I thought the whole BR concept was awful, up until Apex came out.

I was looking forward to a game that unlike Apex I could enjoy solo, but Warzone is trios only for some reason... If it had solos and duos you better believe there's enough people fed up with randoms in Apex that would've made the switch.

i haven't played apex in weeks at this point so yeah i guess i'm one of those people waiting on the MW BR to drop. but even if it wasn't i definitely needed a substantial break from apex. i definitely wasn't having much fun at the beginning of this season and have felt a bit burnt out by it all.

I'm gonna take a break to try Warzone. I only came back to Apex a few weeks ago but haven't been having as good a time with it as I did when it first launched.

There's other stuff coming out soon too anyway.

Will probably try the MW Br but i've never been a fan of CoD weapon dynamics and movement. Always felt babby's first to me. Can't be any worse experience than solo queue apex :p

Ping system has its ambiguities, but sometimes for the better. Voice lines help to reinforce the information pings are supposed to represent (i.e. "Enemy over here!") and it's up to the receiving player how to interpret and use that information in any given situation. There should be no stigma, no assumption, no guilt-trip. Just make the call and do what you need/want to do given the info at hand.

If anything, I'm more likely to run blindly into danger when a friend is on the mic going "With me! With me! They're so dead!" The desperate cries of downed team mates caught in the moment can cloud your judgement. Incessant pinging can, at least, be ignored until you process what to do with it.

You are right, no matter if one uses the ping system or the mic, the communication should be concise, calm and reasonable.

I had this happen once, but what I'm getting more is not being able to equip grenades at all unless I literally open my inventory and select to equip it. :(

I've had this glitch where, in a 1v1 situation, the enemy does more damage than me, and I go down. Fix it Respawn!

Not in the least bit interest in that CoD game, I'd rather walk on broken glass than play a CoD game, truth be told.
I'm done with Déjà Loot, got the Wingman skin, now waiting for the new weekly challenges.

Weird, I was able to buy a Bangalore legendary skin with legend tokens in the store even though I don't have the required skin. If you want to spend legend tokens on something and want a legendary skin for Bangalore, might be worth trying.

I watched some gameplay vidoes of the COD: Warzone BR and I can already tell it won't be for me. Apex/Titanfall's movement is unmatched.

eh, from what i played of the beta it felt a lot different, and better, than previous CoD games (well at least BO3 and MW Remastered, which are the only two i've played this generation) and i liked it. even without the futurey jetpacks and wallrunning of some of the series' recent entries there was more flexibility in climbing and sprinting and the animations in general seemed like a genuine grade above. it definitely didn't feel as 'stiff' and comparatively restrictive to me as previous games. it's also no longer aiming for a similar aesthetic to Titanfall and Apex of which inherently allows for more absurd sprinting and sliding and climbing, so it's hard to compare.

I missed Labs:



With a start like that it could've been like a 30 bomb with Caustic, but of course I choked two squads later.

All other games were miserable. There's just no loot in Deja Loot, you're running with no ammo, heals or attachments while everyone's camping...
