Won my first games today, I'm getting some kills now and it's feels good to revive and save the whole squad.
Didn't use Wraith today bc I can't see her kit being so Good as other units, something I'm missing with her?
On one match a guy use the gas guy and got 10 kills he played amazing, fortified a tunnel with traps and his m8 lured them in there with a decoy, was so fun to watch.

Wasted so much ammo just firing at someone across the river that when it came to the last tiny circle and 3 squads left, I had no ammo and spent the scant few seconds of life I had left jump kciking everyone. Unfortunately lost.

Her ultimate portals can be used by anyone, even enemies. You can perform some nice saves or grief people by putting them in doorways, facing them towards each other, causing people to get into loops and disorienting themselves.

Re-downloaded origin on my PC and got this sitting at 90%install. Gonna hop in tonight after work with some buds from work.

First Battle Royale game of any kind. Any pointers or advice for a complete noob?

Took some getting used to for Pathfinder's grapple because the physics work differently than in TF2, but it's got a really good pull to launch you vertically.

I think it works the same, you're just not carrying the momentum you were in TF2. You swing in the direction you're looking still, at least. Makes it awesome for flanks.

Has this game left Twitch's number one spot since debuting? Every time I go there it's at over 200k watching.

I think once I get the sensitivity and brightness settings sorted. I keep playing with the response curves and feel I'm getting closer to an ideal sensitivity on Xbox, but it's still not quite right yet. Hopefully I get that sorted soon.

Brightness is a little different...whatever I set it to, it either seems a bit too dark, or washed out on my monitor. I'll keep playing with it too.

That and any more Xbox people that would like to squad up would be lovely. :)

Sorry if someone already posted this but here are the damage numbers compiled by ClassicKen on the Apex reddit.

You have 125 HP with lvl1 armor, 175 with lvl2 and 200 with lvl3
good info.

I assume Mastiff and Kraber only come from supply crate drops? I don't recall ever seeing them just sitting around in the world. Could be misremembering.

Nope, and It looks like it came at Fortnited expense
Feels like a better game to me. Not a lot of reason to go back to Fortnite atm. Not for me, anyway.

Thats correct, ive seen the Mastiff multiple times in supply drops but only seen the Kraber once so dont know if the Kraber is more rare.

What is the range of Wraith's portal? Hypothetically, could I put one down inside the play area, then go into the storm to grab someones banner, put the second half of the portal down and get back to safety quickly?

Man, I really wish there was a replay save system in this. Just had the most unbelievable game I think I'll ever have with 2 squadmate revives and 11 kills to clutch the win playing as Lifeline.

The Spitfire and R-99 is a deadly combo.

Yes that is possible, you can run pretty far with it, there is % that shows when your end teleport gets put down if you dont do it manually.
Think it depends how fast you move also how fast the % goes down.
Used it once to make my teammate get out from deep circle that way.

If the 3rd guy (or girl) doesn't pick his character and the game auto-picks for him, he loses Jumpmaster to 2nd picker

Man Bloodhound is fun. That contextual info is a gamechanger, and the ult is so empowering. Love it.

Look into the recording software provided by your GPU manufacturer. If you're on Nvidia, you can set up a 50 Mbps bitrate 5 minute loop for recording with minimal impact on framerate. I've got it set up and its useful for capturing mad moments at the push of a button.

Fortnite is still a great game. Very different experiences in my opinion. Fortnite is unique enough and accessable that it will always be on top. I still think Fortnite requires the most skill to play at high levels. That being said, Apex will destroy call of duty battle royale.

I do hope Fortnite adopts some things from Apex. That ping system is so good to use in battle.

Dude, if you ever run alongside your teammates, at full speed with no weapons in hand, you'll very quickly notice everyone keeps pace because everyone has the same run speed. It's like Overwatch: Rein feels slow because he's huge and has big head bobs, where Genji is way shorter and bobs in small movements. Yet both have the exact same walking speed.
Genji and Tracer do actually move faster than every Overwatch hero other than Lucio, though.

I'm interested by the PC version. Should i play with my x360 wired controller or stick with my mouse/keyboard ?

I play BFV with m/k but in Titanfall2 i had to use a gamepad. Thats the reason why i ask !

I'll look into that, thanks! Although I wish I could save and rewatch the entire game as it was was crazy.

A 5 minute clip of Apex at the aforementioned bitrate is 1.75 GB. If you have the HDD space to spare, a 20 minute loop is 7.5 GB, according to Nvidia Share. 20 is the max it does unfortunately, but most games don't last longer than that. You'd miss the start of long games, but at least you'll have recordings of the memories.

Mouse and keyboard, I started playing with Xbox one controller but quickly had to adapt to mouse and keyboard as the game doesn't appear to have aim assist on pc (unless I'm missing something) so you'll just get smoked by pc players. Plus with wall running gone movement isn't *as* important.

I've not been able to figure out what Bloodhound's ult actually does? The description is super vague to me.
You move a lot faster, and you get high contrast enemy models, meaning you can see them through smoke effects. You also get a huge amount of enemy trail info so you can track them down.

I might be misinterpeting some of it myself because I've used it for like 2 minutes in total so far, but it's really good IMO.

So, can you select the Data Center on PC or not?

Edit-

Figured it out after googling but it's not simple, apparently only after you time out for inactivity and get kicked out of the server (after not touching the game for a while) it sends you to that "Press left mouse button to start" screen and there on the bottom it says Data Center. Be careful not to click anywhere else on the screen.

No clue how data center auto-picking works when you're playing with friends from other regions. I wish I knew of a way to check ping in-game.

I don't mean 'no one cares' in the sense that no one is trying and everyone's just running around like assholes for 20 minutes, I was speaking more to the sense that if you do great, great but everyone forgets by the next match, if not, whatever, everyone forgets by the next match, and specifically regarding the post I was responding to, things like your kill stats mean nothing to anyone but yourself so it's not worth getting worked up over. Personally, I changed my stat tracker to something useless as soon as I figured out how.
I didn't think you were talking about the "no one cares" side, I only brought up my efforts to play well because in the back of my mind I'm thinking "everyone cares, don't screw their game up". You saying it's "no big deal" was more of what I was interested in, and that's a relief. Some games we'd die early and I'd just close the game because I didn't even shoot anyone, I must have screwed the whole team, pressing play was a mistake.

This is actually the most online multiplayer I've played in years, especially pvp. I actually wish I could stay level 1 or 3 at the most until I get better, now I'm level 5 and I was a bit worried they'd put me in higher ranked teams. Seeing someone say they are high level and get level 1's on their team destroy's that idea though.

And thanks for the tip, I'm going to change my stats to useless stuff too haha.

So chat/the friends list is showing as Offline for me and my friend on Origin meaning we can't group up and play... Is there a fix to this? We've tried re-logging. I've linked my Steam account but he won't so I don't know how to get around this.

Yes, it is next to Accessibility Options on the title screen, but I think the option is only available to select once the game has tried to connect to the default server and fails or something like that. It's not always there, but I was able to see it once last night. It was already set to the lowest ping server for me.

I couldn't be happier with how easy the equipment menu is and the on screen indicator of how many slots are filled. Plus the crossed out symbol when you can't use the item is just fantastic. Makes it so easy to drop something you don't need.
