    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... :(

    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 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.

    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

    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.

    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.

    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.

However, if you want something to play with your buddies, Apex will do its job. Its main flaws only truly exist with some of its gameplay. For example, threats like the storm never truly feels like a worry as the game makes it far too easy to avoid removing it as a big challenge. it is also easily predictable to know when you will win or lose as once a squad mate or two is down, you know that you are playing against a group of far more experienced players. The game also has no solo mode meaning you will need to play with friends or with some people online. Overall, Apex Legends is however a decent BR and FPS game. Its a fun way to kill some time however Its no game of the year and its needs much work. Expand

    Fast paced and incredibly well designed. Easy to grab, extremely difficult to master. Tons of fun and adrenaline. I feel like all those negative reviews come from bad players who can't even reach Top 5... And reaching Top 1 in a game is very challenging. This is the kind of game which requires constant training just to be average. Or maybe they just need to stick with games with freaking mobile graphics, cause you actually need a decent PC with a good GPU and good connection to play it. It's definitely not for everyone. Besides, complaining about lootboxes is irrelevant, since this game is completely free and, honestly, I don't care about cosmetics. Each frag you get is instantly rewarding, in Apex.
    I just wish there was a solo ranked mode, and less hackers on PC, even though EA is actually doing a great job to remove them (over 1 million accounts banned already, more than 3000000 only in China). But I'm here to judge the game, not the community. And this game is a pure gem. Way better than PUBG and Fornite, definitely.

"SBMM" game is supposed to be fair and you should be put againts people with similar skill level as you... but, that doesnt work. Average player in Apex has probably 1kdr, I have 2kdr and It's just SO SAD when game puts you against 8kdr Predator with 20k kills. It just doesn't seem fair. The best thing is when you go to social media and you try to talk about this problem, You get spit on for being bad at game and just everybody tells you to stop whining and get better. 2. Servers are just horrible sometimes, whole game lagging. Tho I wouldnt blame it on Respawn as it is EA that maintains their servers. Expand

    Gunplay are fine, but there are tons of problems.
    1. The game supposedly has 100 mil active players, yet matchmaking is very bad. While in gold league, I get matched agains ex-diamond players, and I get bronze teammates.
    2. Too many people just yolo and die in seconds. Too many teammates just run off solo. 3. When played correctly (safe), the game is mostly running and

    5. Obviously woke character design, and tons of current year politics.

    I don't believe that with this many problems this game can be so popular. I think it's tons of marketing money and numbers manipulation.

    Best Battle Royale game. The only one that feels different. Has the best gunplay and movement in FPS games right now. Has the best innovations like the creative ping system, the first BR with the respawn concept, ziplines, vaults, etc. Lastly, it is currently the only BR with multiple maps.

    Sadly that is it. The server management is horrible. 60 ping in 1 game then 200 ping for the

    Sadly that is it. The server management is horrible. 60 ping in 1 game then 200 ping for the next. Its gameplay (especially in Ass Canyon and Openlympus) is either:

    1. Find nobody until 10 squads left then after you find and fight 1, the 3rd 4th 5th 69th party comes for your necks
    2. You drop hot and die early game (if you survive the hot drop it would be the same as 1, that is the peak experience for the game)

    I am so tired of the game right now that I moved to a game that prioritizes winning over getting high kills (Valorant). The game is too casual right now (its just for the kills) unlike Valorant which is probably the FPS game with the highest competitive integrity right now. I am new to the game right now and there is no agent that you can play properly without some mastery unlike in Apex a lot of legends (Octane (especially with Revenant), Bloodhound, Seer, Caustic, and Gibraltar just to name a few) are too noob friendly and also the guns (L-Star, Rampage, Charge Rifle, Devotion (especially with Turbocharger) and R301 just to name a few also). Also, there are some annoying braindead legend combinations like the infamous RevTane (its nerfed now but still braindead)

    I also don't like the ranked system. There should be no "freebie rank" in any competitive game but in Apex the real ranked experience starts at Platinum. The consequence at losing in Bronze, Silver, and Gold is just not punishing. You can troll 5 straight games hotdrop and die first then on your 6th game you win the game and every "punishment" you had gets erased. On mid elo and high elo a lot of players just hide for RP until they can get an actual good game - making the system "grind over skill". A player who rats a lot and has horrendous aim and gamesense could get to Plat while a player who has decent aim and decent gamesense could be hardstuck gold because they take fights a lot and get 3rd partied a lot in the process. The ranked system doesn't promote playing smartly. You either rat, grief others while giving up your positioning, or be the one griefed.

    Lastly, the lack of content. Dry af. At this pace, the game is gonna die.

    This game was my favorite FPS at one point but it just stinks right now. I no longer grind it. There is just no reason to. I just play it casually and occasionally. Oh about Arenas. I forgot about it just like the majority of the playerbase.

    TL;DR = Probably has the worst servers in any multiplayer game right now. Ranked system is ass. Meta is braindead. Olympus and Kings Canyon are bad maps. Worlds Edge is good for ranked but also ass for pubs. Storm Point is boring af. Best BR? Yes. By far. Best FPS? No. By far

Unfortunately the devs have taken a page out of ubisofts book and seek to keep making unnecessarily large maps. 4 maps, 2 of them insanely big, 1 is pushing it and the original map is fine.

    As for the gaming experience, this has too be my favorite FPS game, everything feels so smooth and nice and gun play is enjoyable. Movement is very exploitable, lots of hard strafing and crouch spamming as well as tap strafing. Unfortunately most of the casual crowd is starting to abandon this game for newer FPS games and those who remain are extremely good at the game and makes for a really poor experience when you're a newer player being put in the same lobby as the top 2% of players.

    This game was so great it's first year but really needs a complete revamp or a sequel to be made.

    Best battle royal out there the character choices are really fun and are always being balanced keeping the meta varied over the years, you can easily play for hours and not get bored. Seasons can be come stangnent about half way through due to un-interesting events every so often. Seems well optimsed since everyone I know can run the game.
