The theme of Season 5 seems to be centered on exploration, discovery, and riches. Loba's Huntswoman skin has the skilled assassin looking like a Victorian bounty hunter. The forest green and cream outfit is accented by the dark brown leather of her accessories and brings the entire look toget
Gaming isn't only about games. It's a social experience to connect people. This is even more true in the time of COVID-19. Playing online together is one of the few activities that separated families and friends can do together and is a way to bond. Right now, siblings are shooting each other from across the world in Fortnite , and friends are scoring against each other in FIFA . Sadly African players don't get to join the party. They must put up with terrible lag and non-stop connection issues if they want to play. Not only is this a frustrating experience for them, but it kills the fun for their overseas teammates with a decent connect
In a game like Apex Gibraltar Legends where knowing the location of your opponent is so vital, having a character that's actively working to make their location unknown is extremely powerful. Not only is she a must-have for every team, but she's also easily the one legend you should always opt for when playing so
Bangalore doesn't have a set of abilities that will wow or surprise you, but boy is she valuable. She's the prototype for players who want a more traditional first-person shooter experience and her smoke can help get her team out of some sticky situati
The L-Star, much like the Mastiff which will be discussed later on, is a weapon that was once relegated to care packages but spawns in the overworld in Season 5. A weapon that doesn't require you to reload it is pretty powerful, you just need to make sure it doesn't overheat. You can become rather careless with ammunition when you forget about reloading, so just be aware of your energy ammo supply. The speed at which your weapon can fire can become all too important, and the L-Star is best in cl
Mirage has quickly ascended to be the poster child of the game in many ways, thanks in large part to his over the top personality. It should come as no surprise that he received a brand new skin in Season 5 that's pretty stel
He now can revive a fallen teammate while remaining invisible, which is huge. Depending on your play style you can use the invisibility he gets from his Ultimate to either disengage and flee from a battle or use it to get real aggressive and stealth attack oppone
Bangalore is the jack-of-all-trades, master-of-none character in Apex Legends and is the go-to for most people who prefer an experience closest to that of traditional first-person shooters. Her Sky Marshall skin in Season 5 gives her a violet hombre hairstyle which pairs perfectly with her purple pilot's jac
The lack of servers creates a vicious cycle. Publishers don't have African servers because they think there aren't enough players, but without servers, how is the player base expected to grow? The impact of this policy has had a truly detrimental effect on the African gaming community. Many games have "World" Cups or "World" Championships, and it's evident that Africa isn't part of their "World." No matter how good African players are, there's no way of getting involved in many of the sanctioned leagues without moving to another contin
As expansive as Kings Canyon is in _Apex Legends _ , there are a few prime spots to land in Season 5 and a few to avoid. Some of the more popular locations will be heavily populated so it's up to each player do decide if they want to go up against the competition or avoid the mess, at least for a little while, and stay off to the sides. Each method of play has its rewards and benefits and the drop locations can help to establish those types of pl
As applied to randoms, this optional metric would be a terrific way to incentivize good behavior. Perhaps the result of numerous positive endorsements could be a guaranteed legendary item, a unique skydive emote or a special profile ba
The Cage is more of a large tower and it is highly populated as well with everyone landing on the topmost part of the tower for the most part. If this is the destination of choice either landing on the top of the tower, expecting a fight, or landing on the outside of it, where there's tons of loot in the small bunkers, avoiding contact, can be a preferred play here. It's one of the rare locations that going into combat is a choice rather than a necessity but in the endgame, being on the top of the tower is where everyone would love to
Now let's talk about the other color variant of the Bootlegger skin. This one is mostly gold and black and goes by the name Gold Standard. The pinstripes on this skin are a lot more subdued and at a glance, it simply looks like Loba is wearing a gold and black jacket. If the other skin is a created character in Red Dead Online , this one might be an end-game outfit you unlock after hours of grinding and/or gathering resources. It visually brings back the images of Loba as a child, growing up in a life of wea
