Apex Legends: Solving The Problem Of Toxic Random Teammates

Toxicity is nothing new in gaming. But I fail to understand why we should continue to allow this behavior to continue if there’s something we can do to mitigate it and reward those who don’t engage. I’ve had friends uninstall Apex Legends due to frustration with random squadma


Season 5 of Apex Legends Legends Guide Legends started today, and the patch notes are incredibly extensive. We have a new legend , new zones in King's Canyon, balance changes to Legends and weapons, and a brand new PVE game mode known as the Season Quest. There is also a new battle pass, a rotation to supply drops, and the return of one of the best hop-ups. Let's dive


In games of Apex Legends , I’ve found myself matched with profile names that are blatantly racist (they used workarounds to pass spam filters). Once, the first thing someone said was a sexual comment. I’ve been told I was trash for losing a fight by missing a shotgun shot. Random players frequently separate from their teammates, go AFK in the middle of a fight with no explanation and can be toxic in any number of other w


As for weapons, the new gold drops include the Longbow, Hemlock, Spitfire, EVA-8, and RE-45. The alternator has an increased mag size and the re-45 has a damage increase and a reload time decrease. For the full list of weapon changes, see h


Is it worth $10? Absolutely. The most recent battle pass included 6 new exclusive skins each with its own additional unlockable styles, and most have their own pickaxes and back bling, on top of a handful of emotes, loading screens, and player icons. If Fortnite does one thing right it is its cosmetics. The battle pass offers players a plethora of items to unlock that are each unique and worth the grind and the extra challenges extend the life of the game and give players a reason to hop back in every w

While the character skins which are unlocked through the battle pass aren't that great, the weapon skins and emotes in Apex Legends are amazing. What Apex lacks in character skins they make up for tenfold in weapon skins, and almost every weapon skin in the battle pass is gorgeous. There are also plenty of quality voice lines, emotes, calling cards, and stat trackers. On top of all of those rewards, there are rare materials which can be used to craft skins as well as high tier Apex Packs only obtainable through the battle p


Finally, poor Pathfinder's grapple has had its cooldown increased from 15 to 35 seconds. The developers explain in the patch notes that they don't think Pathfinder should be able to reposition so easily multiple times in a fight, and we tend to ag


"There's no way I can keep up this momentum forever, where I'm working the day job, SoaR Gaming, and then streaming like all at once," he says. "The only reason I feel like I'm able to do is that I'm relatively young, for n


In the past few weeks, I've twice watched someone back out of a game because I chose the character they wanted to play. Both times, it was because my game defaulted to the character because I didn't make a selection. In one instance, I even apologized after noticing the other player had wanted to be the character I had chosen, but the player backed out anyway. It's important to note that in Apex Legends , selection order is randomized. In both cases, my name popped up first on the selection menu, meaning I had every right to choose whichever character I wanted to play. Regardless, backing out for something so mundane is problematic because my team is forced to play the game as a squad of two up against squads of three, which makes the game much more diffic


Apex Legends is a free-to-play battle royale game that had a pretty strong launch but fell from grace shortly after due to it being slightly too niche. However, it has maintained a pretty loyal fanbase and has stayed fairly consistent in terms of gameplay. The Apex Legends Battle Pass is 950 Apex Coins, or roughly $10, and the rewards are worth more than that monetarily. However, the character skins that can be obtained through the battle pass are a bit lackluster, and have been for some time now. The best skins for characters can be found in the item shop and can be purchased with real money, or can be obtained through opening Apex Packs, which also cost real money, or can be obtained through grinding lev


A lesson taught in almost all battle royale shooters, positional advantage provides one of the most oppressive advantages over an enemy. Being able to decide on what angle to tackle a given angle can be the difference between a won and lost combat encoun


On the opposite side of the map, Relay has been replaced by The Rig, and Wetlands has been replaced with Capacitor. These two remodeled zones completely change the flow of the map and offer higher tier loot than their predecessors. Capacitor is also at a much lower elevation than Wetlands once was, but is almost completely surrounded by wa


The game provides a tremendous variety of weapons to use. Rivaling the arsenal of a game like PUBG , there is more than enough options for a player to develop their own personal style and load out prefere
