**apex current Gun meta Legends ** followed in Fortnite ’s footsteps by launching its own Season, dubbed Wild Frontiers, on March 19. On top of showering players with goodies in the form of cosmetics and a new Legend, Respawn has made a host of technical chan

Being from a planet near King's Canyon, he was more than willing to try out this new adventure alongside his friends and colleagues. It also helps that his abilities give him a real advantage on the battlefi

It seems easy to imagine, then, that a random lobby would quickly become full of individual players who have all chosen the same one or two characters, knowing that these characters provide unmatched tactical advantages. And, going up against a lobby full of Wraiths and Pathfinders doesn’t seem like a fun prospect for someone playing a character like a Caustic, given that both Wraith’s phase and Pathfinder’s grapple make it easy for them to get away from Caustic's Nox

This squad is all about smoke. Caustic creates smoke that hampers enemies' vision, damages their health despite their shield condition, and slows them down when inside a building. Bangalore has her own smoke capabilities that create a veritable blanket of smoke no one can see through. Making matters more interesting, Apex Legends has removed the Digital Threat optic from ground loot. As such, the only real counter to Bangalore’s smoke is using a recon legend, like Bloodhound or Cry

New Castle’s ultimate ability is undeniably strong this season and it works best for teams looking to hunker down. Add to that Rampart’s quick-deploying Amped Cover, and players can fortify a building and create a cover out of nothing when fighting in the open. Rampart’s Amped Cover also lets players reload their firearms quicker, which could turn the tide of the bat

To be clear, Solos Mode is an excellent solution to the problem of matching with sub-par random teammates when the only option is team play. Often, players find themselves matched with others who are lousy players, poor sports, or just generally to

The idea of pairing speed, tracking, and protection may sound like an impossible task on paper, but it's actually feasible in Apex Legends . The mix of Bloodhound, Lifeline, and Bangalore is a formidable composit

The full patch notes can be read on the next page of this article. Wild Frontier represents Respawn's first major step in turning the already stellar Apex Legends into a game worth sticking with for the long haul. As the battle royale scene continues to heat up, it'll be intriguing to see how Season 1 performs and what future Seasons look like after

With a teammate playing as Octane, his stim ability only adds more speed to the chaos, and players looking for an ideal composition to catch enemies by surprise will need to look no further. Additionally, with the introduction of new Perks, Octane takes substantially less damage when using his stim ability. It should be noted, though, that the speed boost doesn’t stack up. As such, players using Octane’s stim will not get an additional boost with Ballistic or Mad Maggie’s Ultimate abil

Zombies populate the world, meaning that players will have to take them on. On top of that, the movement is much faster than some of the more popular battle royale games, including a parkour system and much more visually dynamic colors. However, it hasn’t quite managed to break the bigger games in the ge

How do a pair of parents who run a pharmaceutical company not notice their son's issues and help him rectify them? It seems that Octane was just another rich kid who turned the neglect from his parents into an unhealthy addict

Thankfully Octane has the passive ability to recover his health back over time which balances the use of the stim while also allowing him to always gain back his health despite a lack of first aid it

We really want to fix any crashes people happen to get on PC. We also respect our player’s privacy. So, if the PC game crashes, it will write "apex_crash.txt" to your "Documents" folder. This tiny file is plain text, so you can easily see for yourself that it has no personal information. If you choose to share this file with us, it will tell us whether the crash was in Apex or in third party software. If the crash was in Apex, our programmers can use the information to find and fix it. If you experience a crash, please include this file when you rep

Bloodhound is great at gathering information and allowing a team to position themselves in a way that gains a clear advantage in any given scenario. As prefaced previously, Bangalore's smoke can help players rotate freely. And, with Digital Threat optic out of rotation, it can also be used to support Bloodhound's Ultimate. Add to that Lifeline's D.O.C drone, players are guaranteed free revives should they go down in the heat of the bat

Quick-Draw-Wraith-Bundle.jpgARK: Survival Evolved isn’t the greatest game, but this buggy action game has managed to find its audience. Developer Studio Wildcard would later introduce a battle royale mode in the form of Survival of the Fittest. While it’s more ARK , bugs and all, the game does have a competitive edge over the competit
