by kpbmaddisonPathfinder is the one throwing this shindig so he’s all decked out in a classic outfit befitting of a upper class 19 th century gentleman. Although this does raise the question of how he was able to grow a moustache, metallic facial hair is probably low on the list of insane things in Apex’s unive
The gameplay trailer starts with a friendly-sounding advertisement for Hammond Robotics. If you’re not familiar with Hammond Robotics, check out the (fake) company’s website to learn about its role in building “hundreds of advanced spaceborne and mechanized defense solutio
As an ultimate ability, it is only useful if the player can immediately engage after the EMP goes off. If the enemy has time to recharge shields, especially with the abundance of golden shields, then it has little impact on the fight. For this reason, Crypto ranks lower on the scale, with his saving grace being the drone intel and ability to open doors from afar for a quick grenade t
The examples listed above are but a few of the scandals from 2019, and in each case, it was always a lack of communication or of intention that sparked trouble. The issue with the reaction from a player base is that it is most often a small minority of highly-vocal users, and there is little to be done about that, but it remains true that they will bang the drums the loudest if not content with how developers treat their games. With careful planning in how news is announced, developers can avoid almost all controversy, or like Respawn, they can choose to insult their players, resulting in the CEO needing to make a public, and embarrassing apol
DUMMIEs Big Day (January 26-27): Nobody seems to know what this mode is all about. If we had to take a guess, judging by the fact that everyone seems to look like a brightly colored crash test dummy, it’s likely that this mode makes it so you can’t see which characters the other teams have chosen. It’s either that, or it may be the first mode that involves A.I.-controlled bots for players to shoot freely. Guess we’ll find out when the mode goes live on the 26
Bangalore gets a snazzy militaristic skin that goes well with her various militaristic poses. Meanwhile, Bloodhound is… blue, a nice blue. Or is it turquoise? Or seafoam green? Whatever it is, it’s lov
Just after the trailer introduces the totem, Revenant shoots some kind of grenade out of his arm. From the gameplay video alone, it’s hard to tell how, exactly, this will work. However, it appears his grenade tactical ability may have some kind of arc or stun charge, which manifests as the orange glowing ball in the image be
The damage reduction combined with the gun shield makes him a danger at any range and in most situations. His ability to scare people off the high ground with his Ultimate is the icing on the cake for Gibraltar in the current Apex
Infinity Ward shook the world forever with its release of Call of Duty back in 2003. They did it again with their modern rendition aptly named Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare in 2007. Respawn , composed of many of the developers from Infinity Ward all of those years ago, has created yet another phenomenal campaign in Titanfall
Always Be Closing (January 20-21): This mode takes Alec Baldwin’s advice a little too literally. The ring will do far more damage and will be constantly getting smaller and smaller throughout the entire ro
These thematic battle royale Update Pass skins are intriguing as they play into the Jekyll-and-Hyde aspect of the trailer. Skins sometimes connote a nod to the game’s lore, such as the Wraith Voidwalker skin. While it may be a stretch, it’s possible that the two-faced theme may end up with Lifeline, Wraith and Wattson usurped by darkn
Star Wars might be going through a rough patch with the new trilogy of movies, but the video games released under this IP have been dynamite the last few years. Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order is, for lack of a better phrase, Uncharted in Star Wars . That sells it short of its engaging combat and excellent character building , but the core gameplay loop of exploration followed by epic fights bears a striking resemblance between the two ga
Electronic Arts get plenty of flak online for being a terrible video game company, releasing constant subpar video games to inflate numbers. However, They still make plenty of enjoyable titles, with Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order being a recent example of t
It’s not unusual for Respawn and Electronic Arts to put subtle teasers into their trailers. A recent tweet from the official Apex Legends Twitter account showed correspondence that alluded to the fact that Caustic was becoming soft. One hypothesis is that this sets up a Caustic Town Takeover on Worlds Edge this season, similar to past takeovers for Wraith, Octane and Mir
The commercial teases a weapon rack, which is a new feature in the game. For the time being, it seems a new point of interest called Survey Camp will be the only place with weapon racks. They’re meant to make it attractive to drop at an otherwise quiet landing area, according to Jason McCord , the Design Director on Apex Legen
