In gaming, "flanking" describes the process of using the terrain to exploit an enemy blindspot. Frequently, in Apex, this means traveling the perimeter of the circle to reach the opponent rather than taking a direct p

This recent controversy is problematic because it reeks of the manipulative practices we have seen from EA. These loot boxes are terrible for consumers, and rather than providing the items directly, encourage consumers to keep buying until they win the items they desire. These loot box mechanics are exactly what has governments up in arms as they seem to promote gambling to the target audience, which can range from underage youth to adu

Players have mixed feelings about Bangalore’s smoke tactical ability. Sure, it blocks enemies’ visibility as a Banglore heals or resurrects teammates. But it can also can cause issues when a Bangalore player uses it at the wrong time. For example, it can obstruct vision for Bangalore’s own teammates, which in turn can cause confusion as to what's happening around t

Ultimately, the best duos will be the characters that players are the most comfortable playing. Good teamwork skills and communication are vital, and choosing legends whose abilities complement one another can only help improve the chances of winn

In this mode, players are unable to ping items and call out enemies. However, those who make it into the top 10 instantly go from enemies to allies. They can revive downed teammates and cover for one another as their squadmates heal. All these tactics are helpful to win the game as more surviving Legends means there's a higher chance players will make it to the rescue ship. Additionally, surviving Legends can use their abilities in tandem. For example, a player might want to throw Caustic’s gas traps next to one of Pathfinder’s ziplines to make it difficult for Shadow Legends to jump on the li

In Apex Legends Mirage is the Bugs Bunny of the group. His joking personality and willingness to always have a good time is praised and welcomed by several people. It also has a way of rubbing some people the wrong way and coming off as fake or disingenu

Jack Taggart Sr. would make a great site survivor with perks that involve harassing/distracting the Killer. The Killer would be the terrifying Creeper who would apply the Madness effect and have abilities that help him track down the Survivors. It would also be cool if he had a speed bonus kick in every 23 seco

The Wendigos could be an interesting addition as well with these Killers having difficulty seeing still targets, but able to move a lot faster across the ground or climbing over objects. A Killer that could climb through two story windows or pounce at survivors would be terrify

As a result, many are now wondering if Respawn Entertainment is solely responsible for the Iron Crate Pack controversy, or if they are being heavily leaned upon by EA to adopt the model they have used in their ga

Mirage isn't an only child which may come as surprise considering he has the personality and energy of one. He was the youngest of 4 boys and was the son of a brilliant engineering mother who has helped him throughout his entire l

There are few things in life as frustrating as making it to the game’s final circles but running low on health and shields. In most games, players desperately need health and shield items. Even if the players have stacked tons of kills, med kits and shield cells may be in short supply by the time players make it to the end g

There are few benefits from being exposed on lower ground, so if there’s a chance to push, the best bet is to push to take over the high-ground position rather than trying to take the fight from below. This may mean following the opponent’s zip line, having a team’s Pathfinder throw its own zip line or climbing on ledges as quickly — and stealthy — as possi

In addition, there was also speculation that the game would be a dominant entrant in eSports, as it offers players a more consistent experience than games like Fortnite , which has been criticized for its constant change. Right now, Fortnite is giving the world a perfect example of its problematic and hasty updates, with BRUTE Mechs dominating most games and almost every pro player and organization begging Epic Games to remove the unbalanced items from competitive matc

Apex Legends began with great promise, but its overall disregard for its consumer base started with bland cosmetic rewards and is currently represented by manipulative loot box mechanics. The progression tends to make one imagine their primary concern is getting as much money from their players as possible, rather than providing a quality experience and earning revenue through grateful play

Even with super speed and one- or two-hit kills, it’s not always as easy to down a Legend as one might think. Working with other Shadow Legends gives the Shadow Squad an advantage as they can attack from many different directions at o
