    In comparison to Fortnite, this game is less accessible to newbies: no solo queue, matchmaking can takes minutes, the UI is cluttered, etc.

    I wish this game would have a solo queue... :(

    It would be nice to see it on Linux. Troubles with anticheat instead.......

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. -Gave it 4 stars at the beginning but now it's pointless. every 3 or 4 match i got 50% packet loss and can't even go back to lobby because it won't let me. It is a miracle if i get a server with a ping lower than 100ms, then it is playable but....
    .... whenever there are 3 squads remaining, there is always one squad that gets third partied and you won't manage 2 v 4
    -There is also a significant amount of cheaters and r99 spammers where you can't really survive a full mag of r99 which has no recoil. Nobody enjoys playing against streamers masturbating the game 10 hrs a day with 5 viewers.

    Edit: 02.05.2021 went back to the game after a month and it is even worse, can't get into a match without getting a 45% packet loss and 200 ms lag. You can't even go back to lobby you have to kill the process in task manager and start the game anew. How am I to rate the game if I can't even play it?

    December 2021 update: Numerous improvements have been made. I have not come across any players that I suspected were cheating since I've revisited the game within the past two months. Great game now, although I would like to be able to play all the maps available not just a selected 2 or 3.
    I had to give Apex Legends a try. It is, after all, free to play. I've been having a lot of fun

    I had to give Apex Legends a try. It is, after all, free to play. I've been having a lot of fun with it. It is a challenging multiplayer game. Gun fights are exhilarating, and the mechanics and feel of the game is quite responsive. Player hit boxes are appropriately sized. I've not experienced any latency issues. The graphics look great. The game runs smoothly on my GTX 1060 at highest settings. The map (only 1 thus far), is superb, there are some very cool environments (zones) all packed into a single map.

    I only have a few criticisms.
    -A number of the characters seem like they were ripped from Borderlands (Siren, Maniac (Octane)) and Overwatch. Three of the 'legends' require a lot of time playing to unlock or can be purchased with real money. though they are not needed to enjoy the game as it is quite balanced.
    -There are a number of cheaters playing. While it took a while until I identified a cheater with aim bots, I did find 2 within only an hour of playing during one evening. One was my random team-mate and then another that i suspected and spectated to see that indeed the player was using an aim bot. Apex Legends is a successful free to play multiplayer game, and thus, cheats are to be expected. I just hope it doesn't get any worse and the developers stay on top of it.
    -There is only one map.

    Apex is easily the best battle royale game available today with satisfying gunplay, a cast of interesting characters and solid map design.

    Edit: Updated my score to an 8 as the servers are garbage and constant 2 man squads makes solo queue unplayable.

    Хороший бесплатный баттрояль во вселенной титанфол, только без титанов и паркура, точнее паркур есть но урезанный. Чем отличается от других баттроялей, так это то что игра по динамике как титанфал, но если бы это былл овервотч. ТТК в игре очень низкий, из за брони и т.д Минус еще в том что нет соло режима или дуо.

    I won't lie. The game has high quality gameplay that is not found in others. But everything other than the gameplay sucks. The game is very political and forces certain ideologies down your throat. Not a very good idea for an international audience. The microtransactions are some of the worst I have seen. Lately the new content has been baffling. It was a good game, now it is on its way to dying

    Did not hook me up. The mechanics is fine, in-game communication excellent, but gameplay/idea got boring after few hours.

    Too much server/high ping problems, playing with randoms is impossible you must have your own team in VC, most of the guns are from Titanfall 2 not very innovative and at some point game turns into fast looking but in reality dull and boring gameplay.

    Apex Legends is complicated to rate for me.
    On the one hand the basic gameplay loop is great, the gameplay and movement is one of the best I've ever seen in a game of this scope, the characters add a lot of fun to it aswell.
    On the other hand it's a basic Game as a Service, with Battle Passes, endless seasons, skins, newly introduced characters, and all that shabang, which I find

    On the other hand it's a basic Game as a Service, with Battle Passes, endless seasons, skins, newly introduced characters, and all that shabang, which I find anything but motivating for an online first-person shooter.
    I had some fun times with it, but expect to grind and get beaten up a lot, this game is a time-investment and whether you like it or not can only be said after a certain playtime.
    I have played it for about 220 hours since it launched, make of it what you want, but I've come to the conclusion that this is not a game for me. At this point I only play it for a few rounds after a major update, but quit after a short time, because of how boring and frustrating it is to me sometimes.

    By far my favorite shooter, I think the BR aspects are fun too. I really like how this game has characters with abilities I like that a lot more than the loadout system like Titanfall or COD. The guns all feel really good, the movement is great without being too crazy like Titanfalls. The maps are all really good as well and the game is updated pretty often.

    Originally rated Apex Legends at 9, now down to 5, and that's being generous. Yeah, the game has great gunplay and movement, plus the character abilities and lore make it more interesting than other BRs, but that's where it ends.

    It's such a shame EA and Respawn cannot solve the bugs and problems that have plagued this game since its release, and with every patch that adds 10 new things, they simultaneously find ways to break 100 others. The game right now as of the Rampart collection event has serious code errors and unstable servers with people losing RP with added "abandonment" penalties, completely beyond their control.

    Apex Legends is an utter **** show in terms of stability, reliability and performance, and not representative of a billion dollar company that is making money hand over fist with insanely high priced cosmetics and predatory FOMO tactics to make you spend more. This game has terrible matchmaking, broken sound, is littered with game breaking bugs, and plagued with cheaters that EA / Respawn have demonstrated they cannot stop and have no real control over.

    I've spent more money and time on this game than I care to admit, defended it on all socials for years, but after 2 years I cannot defend this game anymore. They do not deserve your money, and it is only a matter of time before a better game with stable servers, cleaner code, and better anti cheat comes out and utterly displaces Apex Legends.

    Good gameplay but sounds suck. You can hear only yourself and your teammate on 300% when the enemies are on like 50%. You can't even hear the enemy team reviving themselves while they're 10 meters away. This game is a joke.

    개인적으로는 타이탄폴3를 늦추고있는 밉상이지만 한편으로는 정말 재미있게 즐기고 있는 작품. 게임의 퀄리티만 좋다면 레드오션이든 후발주자든 뭐든 시장을 씹어먹을 수 있다는걸 증명한 작품.

    I used to think Battle Royales were so stale after the glory days of Fortnite were over, but then I found Apex. Titanfall 2 is my favorite shooter game of all time, and Apex is the culmination of Titanfall and a superb battle royale game.

    Apex Legends Is simply one of the best Battle Royale games ever made. What makes this game so great is ping system for easy communications, and Titanfall-esque gameplay with charismatic characters.
