Ryan, is this community being toxic as all hell a contributing factor to you leaving?
Nah, every video game subreddit is like this lol
You either learn to love it and ride the wave, or you leave it altogether
I still got the juice left in me

Tbf most people that dislike him disliked him before he said that since he has a habit to be very whiney. Never watched the guy so don't have a horse in the race but that's the most common sentiment I see of him around here.
Yeah I have no horse in the race, but I know that very simple and easy-to-repost narratives about people on Reddit tend to stick around forever. I always like to see people figure out a way to subvert peoples' previous understanding of them and earn a new narrative. Maybe he'll figure it out and earn that.
Not me! But I wish 'em luck. Lotta good people there.
This is actually god-tier. I mean, the tasteful thickness of it.
You want memes? Apex servers, matchmaking, store prices, bugs bugs and wattson
Listen you whippersnapper, I'm 30, which means I'm basically a boomer, so when I say memes I mean "funny posts" not "reposting complaints that we've all seen 10,000 times"
Please say you're bamboozling us

f*ck Fs, let's get your best memes in the chat
We will get a non violent version of the map for a few days or a week so we can explore it like we did when olympus came out?
Will be very helpful.
Unfortunately, not for Storm Point. We had a version up and running but other major priorities needed to take precedence, so we decided to shelf the mode. :(
man absolutely. nothing against worlds edge but i just dont know why olympus shouldn't be the second map. it still feels fresh.
It needed a break after living in the game for 4 seasons. It'll be back soon :)
I hate taking the BR maps out of arenas tbh. All the arenas only ones are super flat and really boring to play IMO. My favorite arenas maps have been skull town, gardens, hillside outpost, and party crasher precisely because they actually have some amount of verticality while maps like the new one, overflow, and to some degree phase runner (the center is fun, but both sides often turn into poke fights on level ground) are just flat and encourage uninspired fights.
I’m also not a huge BR fan, but all my friends play apex so at least arenas offers something different. But with this update idk. Not sure I’ll buy the battle pass cause I don’t think my friends will ever play arenas with me on these maps (they already complain enough about the current arenas only maps) and I won’t play BR enough to finish it out.
Big sad about this change, I’ll probably play a lot less with friends as a result
Yo! This is great feedback to have. The team and I are cooking up new maps and hopefully we can hit the mark with the kind of map style you like. I totally agree that there's more we can do to spice up the play-spaces and bring more uniqueness to each map.
We learned a lot from the BR locations for Arenas. We originally wanted them to be temporary until we had a good amount of custom maps in the hopper but while we're removing them for this season, we can always bring them back in the future.
Any POI's you had in mind that you'd like to see in the future?
Bummed they’re taking out kings and Olympus for a whole season… but pumped for the rest I guess.
I know this sucks for many (including myself) because we absolutely want to have as much variety available for players. But with a fourth map, we made this call to help those learning the new map without needing to go into Ranked.
It was a touch decision and we'll take this as an opportunity to learn from what the community wants more, and try to adjust for future seasons.
Did they not nerf the Triple Take, with it coming back to ground loot? Also, I assume it uses Energy ammo again? In that case, how much does it consume per shot?
Looks like we missed that in the patch notes.
Triple Take - now an energy consuming marksman
This game includes optional in-game purchases of virtual currency that can be used to acquire virtual in-game items, including a random selection of virtual in-game items.
Read moreGreat vid! I was in a weapons meeting recently and we discussed a lot of these ideas. I ultimately came to the conclusion that as long as it has a one shot crit, we can change hipfire, ammo, body shot damage, etc. and pros will still have an issue with it. And that's not a bad thing... I understand why. There's a give and take when it comes to RNG in a "competitive battle royale." Some might say that's a bit of an oxymoron, but RNG in some capacity is an integral part of any BR. That balance is part of the secret sauce that makes Apex what it is.
Ultimately we (the weapons team) concluded we're happy with the Kraber from a design perspective, and don't feel the need to change it really at this point. We're deferring the decision on whether or to remove the Kraber from comp to CGE, where they can better evaluate pros and cons from a viewer & player perspective.
