Hey friends,

As we head into the weekend, we wanted to introduce a new way that we'll be giving visibility into some of the bigger issues we've seen reported from players. Lots of what you'll see are things that have been called out since the launch of Season 2 as well as some ongoing issues.

The board will also contain info about the game, links to previous patches and game updates, and more in the future as we add to it and get feedback. We'll be updating this every week and will share the link when we do dev updates. We know there's more stuff to add and we'll provide updated board next week.

We also know there's lots of feedback out there and we're listening. We'll talk more about improvements in the future and for now I'll say that with many of these new features we've added liked Ranked, Stats page, etc, are first passes that we'll be improving with data and player feedback.

Check out the Dev Tracker here.

A few last things regarding some issues and adjustments we're making to Apex. The following is live now on PC and consoles will follow later today. I'll edit this post once we've confirmed it's live on all platforms. UPDATE: THIS IS NOW LIVE ON ALL PLATFORMS.

Change to Disruptor Rounds Hopup

  • Reduced the shield damage multiplier from 2.26 to 1.7. It's a minor tweak while we evaluate the full weapon meta next week.

Change to Location-Based Daily Challenges

  • For now we have removed location based Daily Challenges as we’ve seen them have a negative impact on the game. Players will still get 3 Daily Challenges.

Leaving Penalty in Ranked:

  • We have temporarily disabled the leaving penalty in ranked as we discovered some bugs we want to squash. That said, we will reserve the right to doll out penalties to players that abandon Ranked matches while we address it.

Twitch Prime Loot: Some tips for those encountering issues.

Have a great weekend and we'll see you all next week.
