Apex Legends BR

Actually quite enjoying this having come back to it after a break... I'm still absolutely terrible at it but I think I must have just accepted that now and so any game where I achieve absolutely anything at all feels pretty good - here's to low expectations!

any of you good folks want to hand hold a scrub? been playing a bit again since the patch and enjoying it. what i'm not enjoying is the solo matchmaking. has to be the most god awful experience in all my years gaming. if and that's a big if it places me with 2 other players they don't use comms, rarely even ping items or enemies....makes for a rather frustrating experience. i've actually found often as not it places me in games with only 1 other player who waits till we drop then quits or it places me in the game on my own, what the actual **** is the point in that! lol

funny how when I said similar that playing with randoms is not how to be effective in this game everyone on here said they got more wins with randoms than they did with regulars. and now you say it everyone is quiet.

sure some randoms are good but the majority aren't.

i play on my own discord. but if my mates aren't on i'd join ocuk. they have a mix of abilities on there.

a lot of people have stopped playing though i have noticed it has lost it's mojo some what.

the aggressive ring changes hasn't helped.

Apparently havoc has had a decent buff maybe abit too much

havoc has always been good. nobody used it enough due to energy ammo.

that is the issue. you need to use guns where ammo is plentiful and energy is still one of those weapons where nobody carries ammo for it and therefore nobody really uses it and swaps it out as soon as they can.

that then has a knock on effect that means everyone stops using it.

the only thing they can do is buff it to the point you have to use it to compete. then nerf it after a month. so more people start carrying it.

They reversed the energy ammo drop rates and there's usually more dotted around now. Early game it can be an issue but as a team it would be advantageous to all run different weapon types, one with heavy, one with light and one with Energy, that way there's no competition for ammo. Doesn't always work like that though!

100% this other night few of us had challanges all around light guns so we all ran with that, made long range combat diffcult to say the least!

this game doesn't suit fighting long range.

as in if you get a knock. the person can easily be revived and you are back at square one.

so I don't agree with it being advantageous to all run different weapon types. my team of regulars have had zero issues running the weapons we like to use regardless of their ammo type. and they are all short range and mid range weapons.

the guns i like to use are:

alternator
prowler
r99
mastiff

as my short range

r301

as my mid range

if i can't get the above then i'll run

spitfire
havoc

i have someone in my team who uses wingman and r99 as his go to. nothing else really unless he can't find them. then he will use whatever he can until he does.

the third usually runs spitfire / r301 / r99 / wingman or longbow

so none of us use energy weapons if we get our preferred. none of us use the kraber either. it's worse than the longbow. it's worse than the triple take even and only really useful if you can hit headshots otherwise 2 shots from a triple take does the same thing. without the long reload and lack of ammo and stupidly long sights.
 
meant to thank mr reaps et al who suffered with me the past couple of nights. i had great fun, though i'm sure it was painful for everyone else!

Kraber doesn't even come with Digital Threat either.

oh yeah see the sniper scope on drops the digital threat 4x to 10x is it?

people show up as red even when there is no smoke so easier to spot people but it's useless to use. as like i said the game suits close range fighting to finish teams off. no point knocking someone 300m or further away.

I'm not totally convinced about that. Knocking and pushing is a strategy in itself. People can't revive themselves (unless you got self revive which is rare), so it's 3v1 for a short period, if you get a knock from afar.

oh yeah within 100m is okay 200m if you are playing with a good team 300m or more forget about it.

against a good team they will just smoke, nade, etc.
 
Thankyou to the chaps who were burdened with me last night. Adds another dimension when you throw Comms into the mix.

Aldo thank you for introducing me to the winners circle at one point
