precision posted:The best advice isn't "be aggressive" it's actually "never fight fair". Only engage squads that are fighting each other, etc. Works for me. Do both. The sooner you are ready to fight, the easier it is to catch other squads unaware. So take your first fight early, even without optimal or nearly optimal gear. Then yeah, clean up other firefights when you can.

I think as soon as you get a non-Mozambique gun and armour you should be trying to kill the other squads

Rotten Red Rod posted:My game crashes have no error message at all. Just *blip* suddenly I'm staring at the desktop. Sometimes I'll get a few seconds of freezing, during which I can still hear the sounds of the game, and then it'll go to desktop. But never an error message. This is exactly the type of crash I'll have, even with Geforce driver 417.35, and the new patch that released. Regarding Wraith as the default try-hard choice: I'd say it's a combination of many factors. Previously, I would have guessed Pathfinder would be that person due to the mobility of the grappling hook alone. But a combination of natural character mobility for all and relatively high TTK neutralizes that to some degree. If some aim-lord could grapple behind and, by virtue of seeing your teammates first, down your entire squad in 3 Wingman headshots- then I'd bet good money that Pathfinder would be the big baller legend. But that won't work and your squad can't be eliminated that quickly by a single person. So it's Wraith. Her benefits have been mentioned already but one thing to add to the "smaller hitbox" part is that at some points while moving, the character will bend at the waist to almost a 90 degree angle to do anime-running. By far, the smallest hitbox when doing that.

The only heirloom in the game right now is a knife for wraith when you holster your guns, and everyone knows you run faster with your knife out, so it's really a no brainer that you'd want one

Pornographic Memory posted:There also doesn't seem to be any way to report people from in-game so thats basically your only recourse against jackasses I was wondering if I missed something I played with my first cheater. I thought the guy was just being an assole and wanting to play Solo. He took out one squad out of the blue right before I was about to first say 'hey jerk how come you aren't playing with us' I checked the map to see where he was and hes already running away from our group along the edge. 10 seconds later another squad goes down to our duder, and than another one. The squads must of been fighting. At this point I'm wondering 'wtf' and I try intercepting our teammate along the edge, and as we're running the guy's just perfectly intercepting squads and each one falling. Before I ever ran half of the map we had won. I didn't fire a single shot. Anyway his name was truuuuuuummpppppppp or some hard to remember variation of that so if you run into him enjoy the free win i guess

precision posted:I'm calling "poo poo that didn't happen" on him getting the heirloom exactly on the literal 500th crate. They are desirable because they are shiny and there aren't many of them, and it happened exactly on the literal 500th crate because he had not gotten an heirloom before then. The game guarantees you loot of a certain rarity within a certain number of boxes opened, for example you can't go 30 boxes without a legendary, if you open 29 in a row and get none, then the 30th is guaranteed. https://www.ea.com/games/apex-legends/about/frequently-asked-questions#q3 Edit: It is rather telling that the threshold they've set for the heirlooms is as high as 500.

Got my first win last night. Felt really good but my team was extremely lucky. The circle converged onto the bunker, and my team was in there first and we dug in hard. It converged again to the west of it, and the only other remaining squad was on the wrong side of it, so they had to come through us. We had every advantage here. We stalled them until it started to close and they triggered our Caustic's traps, I threw some therms, and that was that.

They turn into an easily followed blue swirly, and while they're a swirly they can't see where anyone is since they get all those ghosts to weird them out. I know where they will pop out and they have to guess where I am.

New patch, brand new crash and yesterday I thought I finally had the crashes/disconnecs figured out by lowering every setting to low AND playing in windowed borderless, also underclocking my GPU. No other game would I put up with this much bullshit to get it working, I mean props to the team for making a great shooter. But I'm really starting to hit that tipping point where I'm tired of having a bunch of fun and only have it be hosed up by a crash. Like I'm starting to second guess starting the game up because 'meh most likely you'll have a fun game and than won't be able to see it through so whats the loving point' i've completely given up on the idea of playing with goons because of the crashes, so I feel like im stuck in gaming purgatory

For some reason my sudden, unexplained crashes usually happen when I've had a really good landing with a competent team and wiped one or two squads within the first minutes. It's very frustrating.

So good that it literally detracts from a locked character's ultimate as Mirage can be hurt while invisible while Wraith gets it as her Q.

I have 7 wins, and I have managed to get carried by pubbies in each one of them. I'm genuinely impressed with how this game is made, that someone like me who isn't really super great at shooters can still be a contributor and part of a winning squad.

My very first game as Caustic ended with the only remaining team hiding in a tiny little room, circle on one side and us on the other. I popped my ult but wasn't sure if it would go through the closed door between us and them, so I kept opening the door to let gas waft in and the other team would close it in a panic. It was really funny and I'm glad they were bad, because otherwise they could have just killed me while I was laughing at the scene. Eventually my teammate and I just stood outside the door and poured Devotion rounds in for the win. Can't imagine a better start to my Caustic play.

What the gently caress is the Heirloom that people are spending hundreds on trying to win. Are they just banners and skins? If so, that's retarded.
