We’ll see you next month!

We have released a small patch this morning to fix a few issue.

Pathfinder - Fixed an issue with Pathfinder’s shoulder staying in view after using grapple.

Crypto - Fix Crypto being unable to use weapons for some time when triggering EMP ult ability while not in drone mode

Performance Display - Moved Performance Display so it doesn’t overlap with Kill/Assists HUD element in Ranked. - Fixed an issue with display not staying on after a reboot.

Misc - Fixed several miscellaneous errors.

Are these cards in order of Priority? A: No. These are all being looked at and will be updated on a weekly basis if there is movement on them.

What’s the difference between a server patch vs. client patch?

SERVER PATCH or HOTFIX: These are changes that we can make on the server that don’t require a patch to push to your PC or consoles. These are usually script or playlist changes.

CLIENT PATCH: These are patches that you’ll need to download and update your game to get. These require us to create a new build and go through the certification process before we can push these live to all platforms. Whenever we are adding new content, fixing code bugs, or making some big changes to the game, they have to be done through a client patch.

What happened to that one issue? Issues that are fixed in a patch will have their card moved to a group for that patch and then will be removed approximate...

Hi everyone, this is Jason McCord, Design Director on Apex Legends.

In Season 6, we made a few big changes to the way our armor works. First, all armor became Evo Armor. Second, all armor values were reduced by 25 HP.

After letting the change simmer for a few weeks, we’ve analyzed some data and collected player feedback enough to make a decision. We are going to revert the armor values to pre-Season 6 values. This change is happening today across all platforms. We are keeping the all Evo Armor change.

I’d like to take this opportunity to explain why we made that change, and why we are reverting it.

From the start of Apex Legends development, one of our core pillars was that getting the drop on someone should give those players a significant advantage. We aimed to promote strategy in battlefield positioning and map control. When these tactics were executed well, but a team still outplayed you because of mechanical skill - this felt bad. In Seasons 1 -...
