Would be nice to not have the game lock up weirdly between Champion reveal and the pre-drop. More than a few times I've been left drumming my fingers awkwardly because the screen won't transition, even though everything is obviously advancing per the music/sounds/whatever. Been trying to actively not default for a Spitfire & Triple Take/R99/Volt set up every game and I'm shocked just how good pistols feel in Apex compared to... every shooter in existence bar OG Halo. Feel like people really don't know what to do when you pull out a P2020, like they're stunned they're seeing it ever used beyond a desperate hotdrop skirmish.

I had a winning game earlier where I was weapon starved in the beginning and ran with the P2020 for a while. Eventually I found a R-301 and an Anvil Receiver. Ran into Hammerpoint Rounds almost immediately after and figured I'd give it a shot, I'd never tried it before. Softened targets up with 301 semi auto and finished them with the P2020, and I was surprised at the efficiency. Really glad that I'm moving out of my comfort zone and trying new stuff. Totally agree on the feel of the pistols, and how people react. Although to be fair, they could have just been reacting to the absolute avalanche of damage coming out of the little pea shooter.

I was messing with the Anvil the other day and it seems like it turns the 301 into a G7 with more controllable recoil and larger mag. Also, the option to switch back to auto, making it basically the perfect gun. Why didn't anyone telll meeeeeeeeeeeee

And correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the fire rate slightly higher than the G7 too? Guess I could try it in the firing range if the game would LET ME SIGN IN

With the Flatline you can chew people up at close range with hipfire, chew them up at shorter medium range with ADS, and then chunk them to death with big ole meaty shots from longer distance. Enormous damage per clip even with a white mag. Beast mode.

Literally had god spot for final circle in plat ranked, 2 other squads left, and my teammates just decide to run toward gunfire despite no downs while I anchor the god spot. Then I get 3v1’d and they die and we get third We all had max KP of course too.

I do hope they swap out the care package weapons this time around. I'd love to get the peacekeeper and the prowler back. I wouldn't be mad if they gave the volt to the care package.

Give the Devotion some kind of hopup that makes the first shot shoot faster and farther then swap it with the Kraber. Swap turbocharger Volt with the Prowler. Swap Prowler with Mozambique but it's got super hammerpoint and will oneshot any non-shielded target.

Longbow without a Skullpiercer is just bad times. Honestly it's kinda shocking how much gear you need to slap on it to get it feeling like it should. Even just removing the need to Barrel it would go a long way. Shotguns in general having next to no mod support is a similar problem in the opposite direction. Something like a speedloader hopup for the Mastiff, or a barrel mod that tightens spread would be neat.

No The Mastiff has taken over as Fun Remover Gun as of lately to the point where I almost, but not quite, miss the Peacekeeper/Skullwing meta At least I would get consistently two shotted by different guns then SteelMentor posted:Longbow without a Skullpiercer is just bad times. Honestly it's kinda shocking how much gear you need to slap on it to get it feeling like it should. Even just removing the need to Barrel it would go a long way. Honestly I like the way they handle sniper rifles in Apex, it's something that so many multiplayer FPSes gently caress up. They know that people love to snipe so they put these big easy to use damage dealers in and they just dominate at all ranges. All the sniper rifles in Apex have some sort of drawback to them while staying useful and people are so mobile they can close the distance quickly so you actually have to use them appropriately rather than playing Whack A Head.

Gunder posted:I've definitely been experiencing issues with very slow login times recently. It might have started as far back as the beginning of the season. It just sits at the start screen for ages before it lets you press Mouse One to get into the main menu. I have no idea what it's doing in that time, but it definitely can take up to 30 seconds to prompt me to click my mouse. It used to be pretty instantaneous.

Songbearer posted:No I think the point of SteelMentor's post was that it would go alongside a nerf to base Mastiff and the hop-ups would bring it back to what it is currently, given the context of him talking about how shotguns are good right off the ground with few upgrades needed compared to the Longbow which needs five attachments before it starts looking like an attractive choice.

Has anyone figured out any solutions to the whole "stuck at the connect screen" thing where you click continue and then the screen goes black for a bit then you're back at the same screen again? I haven't been able to play since Season 8 launched and there are apparently thousands of posts about this on the Respawn forums and Respawn just doesn't give a poo poo. Shame to have to give up on this otherwise extremely fun and good game because it just doesn't work for some people. e: lol apparently the fix is "create a new EA account" choke on fetid poo poo and die respawn Kazinsal fucked around with this message at 01:46 on Mar 1, 2021 |

In the thousands of posts there's a workaround for PC where you limit your connection speed as you connect - the exact speed depends people have had to play around with it - close a bunch of notifications as quickly as you can before the game boots you, then remove the limit and it may work. Your mileage may vary. Detailed here.
