Love this so much. I've been there too. Though it's been a while. Slings are great for this. And congratulations!

No. But that does raise a valid topic for future tweaks. Display of that information is a bit more complex, since it's not really "progress" in the same numeric way. But certainly for those multi-legend badges some more data would be helpful.

Yes. The spectator eye is permanently retired.

You are more than welcome to tell people you are the reason.

As always, doing my best to give the typical caveats around expectations/etc, what I will say is that what you're proposing is hugely important to me. I've done a lot of projects in this area, both personal and professional. And quantitative assessment of skill and progress is personally the single defining principle in my life. What you're talking about is - to do it right - a massive project. But there is certainly no shortage of people within Respawn who love this type of data. That's the best part of working on this game, but also the hardest. It's not deciding what to do. It's deciding what not to do. Because the to do list of good ideas is essentially endless.

"Favoriting" of legends is definitely something we talk about a lot. Not just for a feature like that, but for a lot of things. Always very nervous to talk about upcoming features, but what i can say is that there are quite a few new hires - myself included - whose focus is on everything other than the core game loop. Basically, I don't think much (work-wise) about what you do from the dropship until you die (or win). I think - and work - on everything else. Sometimes there's overlap - like, I added the Knockdowns and Assists to the end of game summary screen, and as part of that, I also added assists into the HUD in game during pubs. But in almost every way, I'm focused on what you do and how you feel when you're not trying to kill people and they're not trying to kill you.

That's not what people fall in love with. Apex means so much to everyone here because it has incredible gameplay. I'm hoping that my work helps support the best part of Apex, which is, to qu...

It's a long-standing request. But it's not coming until Season 9.

This feature is not the only love that I gave the badge system.

You are allowed to call me that (it's not all that different from what I do). I'm actually super passionate about stats in general and would like to do a lot more with them. And I think this is a great idea (and something I've talked about in one way or another).

Always a little nervous to make a post that might be implied as a "yes, we'll do that" type of reply - especially because anything that requires new UI requires a lot of input and design work by a bunch of different folks. But I hope that my saying that this is also something I think would be great and would love to see implemented in some form counts for something.

I wrote up the task (I wanted to add it because I use ALC and am always fidgeting with my settings) and was just about to do it when we got another new hire. He ended up doing it as his first task.

Thank you! I was scrolling through all of this just hoping to find someone who was excited about this. I built this! It's my very first shipped feature; I started at Respawn at the end of November. I saved the original thread where this was complained about (or at least the most prominent one) and posted a note in there too.

It was a pretty amazing feeling to see this called out in the patch notes.

It's coming in 5 days! This is the very first real feature I built after starting at Respawn at the end of November. And I saved this thread so once it was announced I could come back and let you all know we listen!

Design Director Jason McCord answered this on Twitter pretty recently - https://twitter.com/MonsterclipRSPN/status/1351312202355990529?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1351312202355990529%7Ctwgr%5E%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dexerto.com%2Fapex-legends%2Fapex-legends-dev-responds-to-calls-for-increased-level-cap-beyond-500-1497206%2F

BIRTHDAY HERE! YOU NEED ONE IF YOU WANT TO GET OLDER! (PS: don't grow up...)

I wish you a day full of bamboozles, foozles, pork chops, and loot. All blessed by the Allfather. And I hope no skinbags eat your cupcakes. Maybe put some fences up around them. Remember to blow out - don't breathe it in - when blowing out the candles. And I hope there's a very special care package(s) at the end of it all.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY HARRY!

My first week on the job, I sent my boss a calendar invite - "Meeting here. Helpful for getting things done." And this type of joke is pretty common inside of slack.

It is on purpose. From the art team's perspective, Crypto is actually not different. he's the same as Bloodhound, Revenant, and a couple others. Basically, body angled one way and then the head rotated from there. He's looking his left (screen right), same as everyone. Well, everyone except Rampart. Who is the actual outlier - looking to her right (screen left). And that's because it's just in her character. And the goal was to basically express that. She zigs when others zag. I gather that this was a topic of much discussion when the original decision was made, so I chose to tread lightly. But that's what I've got for y'all. Maybe along those lines it makes sense that Fuse is on his own line. He's the first from Salvo...

Now I also can't unsee that... Lemme find out if there's an actual reason for that. Before I started.

100% this gives me genuine anxiety.

I want the same. I have no idea if there's a reason we don't show the precise numerical values as I'm a fairly new hire, but this is actually the sort of thing that I work on so I'll find out. I just keep track of it by counting ticks from the far left or far right. Which is not ideal and which could be better.

That's actually really good advice. I've sort of grok'ed that, but not necessarily so clearly. I made a lot of changes to my controller setup - use ALC and actually run a straight linear setup, just because I find it's more "consistent" and therefore a bit easier to train muscle memory. But yes, absolutely you need to let the AA guide you. I would way over auto correct. Moving to a straight linear control actually made this easier because even though it's "twitchy," you can feel the response from small movements more intuitively (at least I can).

The biggest struggle I have now is positioning. My aim is now at least un-terrible. But I too often forget to actually take cover and make it harder to hit me. And not at all weird to give advice to a Dev. I'm okay at making games (well, at least technically speaking); I'm not at all good at playing FPS games. But getting better. Thanks in large part to good advice posted here and on ...
