Glad you noticed and liked it. 🙏🏼
Ugh I just want to play a bit before work but I can't get past the spinning circle on the load screen -__-
Interesting. looks like it's an "auto-titan", so you don't pilot it. It's probably the best way to bring Titans into the game without breaking the balance. It almost feels like the equivalent of an auto turret really.So apparently a datamine suggests Blisk being added as a playable character, potentially with a Titan ult? (that last part is my interpretation of the information)

You do? This is not to hate, but the only Legend newly introduced that wasn't completely underwhelming was Horizon tbh.Interesting. looks like it's an "auto-titan", so you don't pilot it.

Not sure how I feel about that, but I trust Respawn to implement it well.
What a joyful experience ranked is. I had a daily to play as Crypto and we hot drop in Estates right on top of 5 teams. All loot vacuumed up in a few seconds, I have nothing but an arc star. Team goes down instantly and starts the pinging the enemy. I run for the little gazebo area next to the balloon nearby and pull out my drone. Both players are screaming at me in the mic that the enemy is "one hit ****!" while actively trying to crawl while downed away from the enemy. They're both still alive crawling around hiding. I'm like, in case you didn't notice, I have no weapons there are 5 teams on top of you, I have a drone I can rescue you, could you maybe stop hiding and get killed so I could get your banner?
"This is why I hate Cryptos man!"
After waiting their entire time clock for them to expire I finally get their banner, run to the nearby beacon and bring them back. Both proceed to run immediately back to Estates, die, and get right back on the mic complaining about Crypto.

I am actually saying the opposite. I have faith that they won't make him overwhelming. They've been good about not breaking the game, and the few times they have (the early evo shield introduction with changed armour values), they respond and adjust.You do?

A bit harsh. Revenant is a lot of fun to play as imoYou do? This is not to hate, but the only Legend newly introduced that wasn't completely underwhelming was Horizon tbh.
I agree Revenant is fun to play...after his buffs. Upon release he was very underwhelming.
I think the April Fool's Day event was mined already
The gaming merchant on YouTube has the leaked video, which I can't embed here for some reason, but I can't see it happening either, even with an auto titan.
Maybe it's something to throw data miners of the scent of the next actual legend?
I was thinking more along the lines of something that they put out as a video on 4/1 like how Blizzard tend to do.I think the April Fool's Day event was mined already
super-buffed P2020s iirc

If Blisk's passive is true, how would they explain Wraith not having it considering she was a Pilot too?Looked at a twitter chain from the video leak, things are going to get interesting.
It's implied in the pathfinder book that Bangalore has experience with Titans, but I don't know if she is a confirmed Pilot. There was a checklist of her and her brother competing to be the first at doing different things and he was first to get a titan and obtain Pilot certification. It doesn't outright say she did, but I guess she could have after he did?If Blisk's passive is true, how would they explain Wraith not having it considering she was a Pilot too?
Edit: Oh wait, she wasn't a Pilot. I could have sworn one of the Legends was an ex-Pilot.
I'm not super familiar with the heirloom backstory, but could it be a knife for Frontier Corps pilots rather than IMC (she's IMC)? Doesn't necessarily rule out that she was a trained IMC Pilot if that's the case.Wasn't Bangalore's new heirloom one of those fancy Pilot knives that she took from a pilot? Or just found, I guess.
Honestly, this is what I should be doing too. My problem is I just find Apex's gameplay so fun and primarily the kind of thing I want to be playing, regardless of whether I have people to play with or not. So it makes going to another game very hard for me, at least when I'm really in Apex's grips, like right now.I've given up on solo queue Apex a long time ago. These days I either have at least one buddy with me or it's off to anothergameland with me. I can confidently say that no matter how good you are, you're not carrying your team in a lobby full of pre-made preds.
Yeah, back when the game first launched I had a semi-regular team I'd play with in evenings, but life conditions have changed since then and playing with those people no longer really happens for me at this point.Yep. I have a couple of decent peeps on Apex but life is life and we're all busy so it's hard to group up on a regular basis. There was a point a few years back where I would sit on my ass all weekend and play for 8 hours straight with some peeps but I gave that whole thing up after feeling like my life was literally wasting away. Apex now is more of a work break for me so it's sporadic when I jump on, which means shorter sessions and that makes the thought of ever climbing past Plat is very out of reach.
BTW - I stopped playing entirely when the whole SBMM debacle happened a few seasons ago and it was on World's Edge where everyone was dropping into Capitol City / Fragment and just getting mowed down by pred squads. And honestly, it was so miserable playing the game at that point it wasn't even hard to quit - I just naturally gravitated away. So when I came back hardcore this season I was really feeling like Respawn addressed alot of the issues I was having and it was fun again. We'll see. Maybe I was just having an off few days but I'm not going to continue playing the game if every single squad I go against is a sweatfest Pred lobby, as much as I do love the gameplay.
I think so. I had 5 matches with packet loss in a row earlier.Have the servers shit the bed again? Infinite circle loading screen again.
The bed's so shitty it makes Trainspotting look like a 5-star hotel.Have the servers shit the bed again? Infinite circle loading screen again.

If Ashe becomes a Legend though, she was a Pilot too. Maybe she'd have different robot/simulacrum-related abilities though.
Wasn't Bangalore's new heirloom one of those fancy Pilot knives that she took from a pilot? Or just found, I guess.
Wraith is a whirlwind fighter, able to execute deadly attacks and manipulate spacetime by opening rifts in the fabric of reality — but those abilities came at a price. Years ago, she woke up in an IMC detention facility with no memory of who she was. Senior Science Pilot Renee Blasey, who volunteered as guinea pig for her own experiments... whose partner betrayed her and locked her away… no longer existed. All that was left was a timid girl, frightened by a cacophony of voices in her head, until another version of herself appeared and taught her to listen to the voices. Following her lead, Wraith found the strength to break free from her prison and escape into a different reality - this reality.
Wraith was literally a pilot as well as a scientist.I kind of assumed they (Wraith and Banga') are both Pilot-adjacent in some way. Honestly, they could just handwave it by saying the jump-jets given to legends are tailored differently from pilots, and can't be used for wallrunning.
Right, right. I think she said she was a pilot in her video breakdown back in launch too.
I think we could easily see Titans in Apex with zero problems in the upcoming Arena mode. I could see Blisk as the announcer now that I think about it. I'd prefer to have Spyglass or Ash back though.
Other than that, I would REALLY like to see Spyglass come back. Him and the whole IMC Remnant Fleet plot thread is just sitting there. Heck, just the concept of a legion of drones invading the Apex Games could bring some neat ideas:Ash has been leaked and Viper is speculated.
Also, female grunts don't exist in the Titanfall universe. The grunts mention this in random dialogue in Titanfall 1 when they see a female pilot: "Why are there female pilots but no female grunts?"Bangalore can't be a grunt, she doesn't have a crippling fear of corners.
Nice!Got my first 2k damage game on console yesterday.
What an intense game that was.

Love the games where a near-dead octane has to carry your badges inside the ring through successive heat shields but then you come back and win.
