Is Apex Dead? 

Back when Ash came out: 🤔 Back when Storm Point came out: 🤔 10 seasons ago: 👴

You’ll know it’s truly bouta die when they drop Jack Cooper as a last resort

An heirloom costs 150 shards, so put 30 shards at the end of each battlepass. Every 5 battlepasses you complete, you get a guaranteed heirloom

I love Apex, but every time i hear something about the game it's a store update or new exploit

> major hacking flood > removement of duos when many people can’t find a 3rd friend consistently > kinda stale

i feel like EA is purposely letting the game die because it’s no way in hell they aren’t seeing the complaints ppl are making.

Apex is probably the only game where I have to force myself to play a match it’s just the same thing over and over

not listening to the community is how you make your game dead

I've been a pretty dedicated player from season 0 up until this most recent season, and the reason I stopped is (apart from little respect for my time as a player) the predatory and aggressive microtransactions. I hate that every event has seemed to get more and more expensive, and not only that, they've started to go back to their Iron Crown style events with random cosmetics in packs, as opposed to letting me buy whatever I want and not leaving it up to chance.

i am a big fan of apex. but a few weeks ago they banned me for absolutely NO reason at all. (after the latest update). they didn't even tell me WHY they banned me. i contacted them 2 times and they said i didn't follow their rules. 1st they banned me for no reason. 2nd they banned me PERMANENTLY... i hate this game and EA now.. edit: btw i have 1300 hours playtime, and spent money on it edit: OH MY GOD THANKS EA. I JUST DOWNLOADED THE GAME TO SEE IF I WAS STILL BANNED. BUT I WAS ABLE TO PLAY IT! tbh I WANNA CRY T_T (THANKS GUYS FOR UR SUPPORT and sorry for the caps. i just want to express my feeling)

If only respawn could treat us like people instead of treating us like piggy banks.

Skins are not content

this game has such a rampant hacking problem its a fucking pain

I am getting so low level player as teammates. Bloodhound doesn't know how to scan, path doesn't know about zip line, some bangs do not smoke, some do not charge shield. Absolute chaos. Ranked servers are broken too, 300 ping in many matches , specially in KC map.

Match making is the biggest reason I don’t play like I’m a sliver 2 why am I getting a whole diamond player lobby it’s rough. And winning just doesn’t feel good anymore it’s like more of a relief I finally got one

6:22, Wat did I hear Grrt just say???

I deleted apex last year, I grinded to pred for season one, didn't get my badge or pred jump trail but I looked over that, then when they started really changing kc I started swaying away from apex. But when they made us start playing pc players that was it for me, I played 5 games and died to cheaters in every single one. I spectated my killer and they where wall hacking and aim botting. I'll just go play TF2 like I have for years.

Look I HATE THIS ABOUT DEVELOPERS and the exact reason why I'm learning coding so I can make games people want, because I know what the people that play the game wants. These companies don't give a shit about anything EXCEPT MAKING SURE THE STORE WORKS. they haven't a clue about what makes people want to spend money, and have let their greed have a hold of their passion. That's why I'm on my mission to fix this problem.

I think there's so many things in play rn 1) No new event 2) Solos got invested with bots on all the servers as of late making the only event in the game rn not fun 3) With the announcement of legend-centric heirlooms being switched to Cobalt Katars people didnt care about the game and only see money in it 4) The servers are getting spikes for no reason more frequently and I kinda had enough of Apex being the only multiplayer game right now that is noticeably bad at maintaining servers. 5) This current battlepass is ass, no need to grind it out 6) June-Early July is the day for most people when they finish their final exams, graduation in school so it can also be that 7) The lack of communication Respawn does lately about bugs 8) I only play ranked but ngl Broken Moon is the only fun map for ranked everything is too open or being absolutely sweaty. 9) More people have that one friend than that two friend available, removing Duos was a braindead move. 10) Queue times are became extremely long for me atleast

just give use titanfall 3

Next season might bring a lot of people back with the new map, the lack of content and to many store sales is killing all of us

I’ve been playing apex non stop for the last 6-7 seasons but this season I’ve just given up and started actually enjoying playing games again like ghost of Tsushima lmao

i miss duos

When Arenas comes back it's going to be so much more fun. Especially if it has a ranked mode.

Its Sad to See Apex Like This to be honest. I remember the day apex came out and it was fun as hell, a few years later, the game is dying. Hopefully the devs do something good that is worth playing

Thumbnail goes hard

So for me, I only play Apex on a Saturday, I have gone from playing mid week to just one day. Thankfully I haven't come across the Hackers plaguing apex at the moment as I am a console player. So for me when Apex first came out, I enjoyed the speed of the games, it was 15-20 minutes per game, with the introduction of Broken Moon and Storm Point the maps are just to Big and it gets really boring so quickly, it could be 15-20 mins before you see another team. I am looking forward to the new map as it's looks to be a smaller map, so we shall see. But another pointer is, I don't understand why they don't have different game modes. Singles/duo's/trios/quads in both pubs and ranked would be nice.

The five biggest issues with Apex right now: 1 cheaters 2 cheaters 3 cheaters 4 cheaters 5 cheaters

I haven’t been playing apex just cuz duos is not here 😭

Good. They need to see how they ruin their game. Im stopped playing at the beginning of the season, due to them enabling crazy ALGS SBMM in pubs, in solos, and Broken Moon rework being absolutely terrible. Now i only log in once per 2 days to collect daily packs, and occasionally play one control game. Unless they revert SBMM back to "playable" state, im not returning. Instead im having tons of fur replaying Mass Effect.

Personally i wish for a couple things 1. Duos ranked 2.more diverse hop ups example such as rapid fire, akimbo, and slect fire(with adjusted damage) 3. More changes on existing guns to make them popular and to show love to the stuff thats in there now 4. Weekly updates like fortnite does 5. Bring arena maps for mixtape with different game modes example like search an destroy from COD but with apex legends. That and having arenas come back like an LTM

Bro honestly tho I don’t see anyone using the 30-30 who even wants the reactive skin

I dont know how its even possible but they succeed into making ranked worst every season, the nail in the coffin for me was the dive trail removal, like I KNOW you are doing it just to force people into spending more money on mithyc skins, at least dont remove my friggin trails, ZERO respect for player time or grind but only for money

This game just isn't worth playing rn (and If this continues will die out completely) with the cheaters, greed, sbmm, no interesting new content (besides Alter) etc. And its a shame since this game has so much potential but EA and Respawn are ruining it with their ridiculous incompetence

6:32 bro tried sneaking in Fallout 4

I haven’t played since the end of Season 3. Came back recently cause friends wanted to try it, we’re having a blast. Take a break for a bit and come back to it if you’re not having fun. Went from grinding everyday for half the day to not playing for a couple years lol. Now when I’m at work I just want to get home and run some games with the boys

i'm just sick of broken moon, whenever i get on apex i always somehow get broken moon as my comp map and something like a 7hr rotation wait so i go play something else and have fun and just forget the game exist, i've been playing destiny 2 the past couple of day and it's like got me in a trance.

i just get killed too often by the "not moving while looting" players, and that kinda discourages me to play it

i feel like respawn makes the right changes and decisions and but ea's just up their ass and ruining every decision or limiting them which adds up to a lot of damage over time

Honestly it's between playing other games (warzone, XDEFIENT and overwatch) and the queues for rank are annoyingly long and when I get into a match it's against 3 stack preds and I get 2 bronze players somehow even though I'm in plat and also the season just feels dry

Just fix cheaters and increase the chances of us getting a heirloom

The only thing EA would take from this video is “New recolors for old skins for the new battlepasses to come” 😭🤣

They could easily release an LTM and call it smth like flashback and just give everyone Titanfall movement (we know its in the code and its possible from shadowfall) and change the damage numbers to what they were in Titanfall, easy LTM thats both interesting and extremely different from what apex usually is LTMs drag people back, ESPECIALLY if they are extremely different from the normal apex gameplay loop

UPDATE: The battle pass did in fact change 😂

I play every day for 1-2 hours and really have fun. Many people get bored in apex because they fly to the end of the map and play like rats. I would get bored eventually too.

1: Add quads 2: Remove SBMM on one/all modes 3: Make the Mixtape modes selectable Put me in charge for half the salary and I'll make Apex great again

Ive not been playing because despite putting countless hours into the game, I have yet to see the face of an heirloom.

I would feel more interested if they provided more interesting rewards for grinders. DIve trails was my motivation to play rank, now they remove it I'm demotivated for just a stupid ranked banner u only see once the game started.

can we all stop saying that a new skin in the game is content, cause its not.

1. Season 21 drops 2. Grinds ranked with 2 friends. 3. We hit Diamond 4 and the game literally becomes unplayable. From 1 cheater every 5-6 matches to at least 1 cheater every match, either ragehacking or a closet cheater and if you do manage to get lucky there will be at least 1 or 2 pred 3 stacks in the lobby. Good luck gaining RP. 4. We demote to Platinum 1 after 15 games in Diamond 4. 5. We notice that the matchmaking hasn't change at all. We're still playing in the same dogshit diamond+ lobbies. 6. All 3 of us quit Ranked. 7. One of our mates quits Apex entirely. 8. Me and my other friend want to play some Duo's, but that has been removed and we both hate trio pubs because 80% of the lobby always dies within the first 5 minutes, don't have a 3rd anymore and we love the endgame zone chaos you get in Ranked 9. We try out the Solo mode, but don't like it because we want to play together. 10. We end up playing Mixtape only...

the monetization/battlepass situation is always rough, and the cheating problem is real. but id be lying if i said this season wasnt some of the most fun ive had in a minute. Alter is such a fun legend, im really loving the new Broken Moon, and im... kind of coming around on perks? in a way i didnt expect. i hope that the new map pulls people back in.

I feel like for the Battlepass, instead of having a ton of trash filler, it would be way better if we had less but higher quality content. And, they could even do battlepass skin recolours that you earn via challenges.

Ah shit, here we go again

a beach event with swimsuits skins can revive the game

I hope they bring ranked arenas with a mixtape mode. capture the flag, hard point, king of the hill, Hell odd ball from Halo. something that's competitive and doesn't have to be one thing would be really nice. It would be a fresh rank rotation too instead of waiting for a split we have all these modes in one ranked arenas.

I recently started playing again for the first time in a LONGGGG time, having a blast but i mean one of my first matches had a rage hacker, it was pretty detrimental on my decision on rather playing any more is worth it

I am amazed no one has mentioned people getting banned for no reason and then EA refusing to unban. Has happened to like 5 people I know and nothing

For 99.9999% of people the reason we aren't playing is because of cheaters, that's it.

When duos is back, me and my friends will be back.

Mid 2024 - End 2025 alot of games are releasing

idk why a lot of player always saying that "hooo apex is dying apex is dying" i mean we always have this issue, and the game still running so chill out man

If they bring back Arenas I bet there are many players who will return to the game

The issue is the people who are still playing this game are either a streamers or a grinders or with a premade squad, and for any one who plays a game for 2 times a week and solo queue, of course it will be boring just log in and stay the most of the time in the lobby , for sure I’m not playing this game and play a game that i can actually have fun during my limited time

i'm in between gold and plat rn and its not fun honestly. below that rank is fun times but beyond that is just a headache.

Ah yes, we are at that time of the season again, when content creators are out of ideas so they just revive the old "apex is dying" bullshit

Apex just absolutely sucks and I probably won't come back because every game I join has players with 40k kills, 20 bomb badges. Apex peaked when I wielded that buster sword. I was mult-squad wiping every game solo in trios.

I haven't played at all this season. I was actually looking forward to this season but I'm just not feeling it anymore, might be the first battle pass I don't finish by the looks of it

A campaign type of gameplay that involved the lore of apex would be absolutely amazing

gamers nowdays always want something new to keep playing the game

When people don't want to be touching grass/their family so much... ayo Grrt WHAT???

I realized anytime I hopped on it was all ab the shop and battlepasses

What you said about the lore is super true. I came in season 3 just because of the lore and mirage voyage plug at TGA. The lore between loba and revenant was interesting but imo as soon as it got to Horizon things started taking a turn for the worse. There was just an oversaturation in lore with twitter posts, story chapters, etc. I enjoyed lore hunting and speculating, not being spoonfed lore.

I mean Apex decided to make Lore about drunk lesbians and cringe dialogue..., who tf cares about that????

Thumbnail 🧐

I play for "fun" and never been higher to gold. I keep ending up in masters / pred lobbys that are way too sweaty for me.

Respawn: so you want different BP, here, now you have to pay double the price and you can't buy it with AC, just money.

They need to change the store too. I know, we need to hit EA/Respawn where it hurts, in the pocket. But in the topic of improvement, they have to change how the normal store works, I'm tired of waiting for more than a year for a specific skin to come back, only to check the store weekly and see MID shit.

In Arena mode, I could arrange the weapons as I wanted, and the mixtape doesn't have to play with certain weapons. (I've played the BR mode 30 times at most since the arane mode came along, the arena is gone, the mixtape continues, but it's not as fun as the arena.)

I still don’t think there’s enough content. They adjust the meta that much if at all really. There’s no other FPS that goes so long with barely anything changing. It doesn’t help that when they do add things they take something away half of the time. I don’t see why they didn’t just build on Arenas for example instead of scrapping it entirely. As for the weapons, we could start making everything that isn’t viable fun to use at least.

Ngl no apex august should finally become a thing, it may have been thought of years ago but it needs to be done

Season 11 was the last time I properly sat down and played Apex, game was far too sweaty and just felt stagnant to me. I came back like a couple months ago and now it just feels like a sweaty, boring experience :( I'd give a kidney for them to just drop season 0 apex as it was again because those first few weeks were MAGICAL dawg

I miss the old Apex Legends 😔

I haven't played Apex since I get constant packet loss, therefore hit reg and the game is just unplayable while every other internet requiring game runs like a charm. I remember clearly the devs saying SOLOS will never come back to Apex and did I understand well that there is a SOLO mode now in the game? Now I just fell like the devs try everything to see what hooks the players to get as much money out of its comunity as possible which as a business is totally fine. But when your product is this bad that it wont run at all, has cheaters and you getting rewarded for your efforts is pretty much non existent, yeah, I'm not surprised the game is failing at its only job. ENTERTAIN.

It just doesn’t feel fun anymore, I feel like you must always need to sweat to even survive in the game- whether it’s solos or normal queuing

Didnt play apex for year. This game didnt change at all.

Input choice mode would bring me back, being able to choose mnk mode

bro this is so weird for me because i used to be really into apex but stopped around season 11 or a bit after ash dropped and ive just picked the game up again and started grinding in season 21. I have uni and work long hours so i mainly play at night on the oregon servers and id say after like 12 am servers take a while to fill up (if they ever do)

I miss ranked arena it was how i practiced different styles of playing and the maps were nice

We need a Netflix / Hulu or even Google only lore animation and better battle pass rewards

I feel like the only goal I have is to get a 20 bomb. Have gotten 18 twice (the other was in the solos mode this season) and I have gotten 13-17 kills so many times, I cant find enough enemies (I dont have friends to play with so I play solo duos). Basically I got kinda bored since the only goal I have needs luck.

I completely agree with your duos take. It's why I just don't care to play right now. No new content and just boring to play. The same goes for r6 siege. I'm just not interested when it's a dry asf season. D2 here we come baby.

Three weeks later: EA makes battlepass cash only

i tried to play apex with some friends, at first it was all fine but when we reached to lvl 10 things go realy out of hand, we would play on the same lobbys as hardcore master/predator ranked players or lvls 450 players, so yea at least for us apex is that type of game that killing someone is a luxury and not something needed, unfortunately apex being a realy high ttk game with no SBMM realy can make someone quit the game in less than 2 hours. (at least in my opinion)

Cheaters on controller is painful. They don’t even hide it

Bro the "you've spent too much money to stop playing" is so real

I really miss arenas, I played apex at launch was meh but when arenas came out that’s all I played for years I loved it

That thumbnail tho... 💀

If apex dies titanfall 3 lives🗣️🗣️🗣️

It’s gaming in general, game developers and publishers are getting lazy with their content updates and not listening to what people really want. Every game feels too similar and nothing feels unique. Almost every game has a battle/season pass in it, tons of microtransactions, and doesn’t even really try to differentiate themselves from the competition. I just made a video talking about the gaming industry/community as a whole, so yeah. Much love Grrt ❤

My reasons: >predatory monetisation >lack of fresh content >only way to be good at the game is learning movement techs that take hours for me to master >any update is literally a store event or a collection event >gave up on hope of getting an heirloom >mixtape (which I usually play) barely rewards you >unrewarding battlepass that is hard to grind >challenges force you to change your play style by picking certain weapons or legends >annoying cringe characters (vantage, Valkyrie, conduit just to name a few) >the legend you pick barely matters >just genuinely boring to the point where I have to force to myself to play a game
