Camping hasn't been prevalent at all in this from my experience so far
Time to kill is too high to just sit watching a door. At least not without the best armour, and you ain't getting that by hiding. Plus the lack of solo mode means you can very rarely cover all entrances on your own, and nobody wants to camp as a team

Went postal with a peacemaker and Evo earlier, got 4 kills within about two minutes of landing but got killed in a 3-squad fight
Not sure the peacemaker is the best shotgun, but it's so satisfying to use that it's the one I go for
Only found one Kraber so far and it was when the circle was too small for it to be useful :(
Starting to get to grips with the weapons, burst fire pistols seem like they're by far the lowest tier. Not tried the Mozambique yet, put off by the clip size.

Nah, PS4. I'm just too shit at aiming with a mouse to compete, don't enjoy using a keyboard, and presume I'd have to play it on medium-low settings just to hit a constant 60fps. Not upgraded my pc since I built it in 2014, and it was mid-range back then
By SUPER YARAK Go To PostYou need to go in raw and slide into every dm.
This is the only way. Take every risk and push every advantage. Worst case scenario is you fuck up and then you’re back in another game within a couple minutes anyway.

My feeling is the only trash tier weapons are: P2020, Mozambique, EVA and Alternator/R45. These only work in the first minutes when people are running around without armor.
The rest you can make work with the right attachments and engagement distance.
I think this the thing I like most about the game so far, is that in squads you are able to play to your preferred play-style and skill. My aiming is horrible on PS4, especially with snipers. While at first I always tended to go for an AR + Sniper weapon combo, I now feel comfortable enough to move around with nearly anything. If you land near the circle or already are inside the circle on landing, you don't need a sniper to move far distances.
Even with terrible aim (and I am terrible, only 60 kills with my main although I'm already lvl 24) I made a lot of Top 3 placements and have several wins under my belt.
I like how the cel-shaded artwork gives an illusory hope of Borderlands-like grandeur, but the actual game itself is still marred by realistic graphics.
Champion on my first game on the PS4. I thought this game was supposed to be hard?
I have no idea what happened but my teammates were great. Didn't do too badly, but one of them just lead us to a win the whole way.

I've gotten a handful of wins on PS4. Some of them I got carried on and the others were ones where I played like I have some common sense and got lucky.
I'm in a weird spot with this game right now.
Engagement distance v TTK is really, really not clicking for some reason.

Probably because you're playing with a controller like a coward.
i think the develops recognize the issue as well. the map is really cluttered. its basically encouraged - abilities to close distance > any range advantage available. its pretty much the opposite of most BR games.
stop playing like a pussy and close the distance coward
the best gun in the game is the peacekeeper with choke

Some of the long guns are trash.
There are 3 guns I like for range, anything else I gotta be up on you for them to do anything but tickle.
That semi sniper with light ammo is trash

The trick to the scout is you gotta spam it. Light ammo is abundant and despite being semi-auto you can spam those shots out fast. OFC if you find any other AR I'd trade it off, even the r301 which is basically a more efficient scout.
The big problem with light rounds though is the early game is so tiny in this and it takes a lot of light rounds to tear through lvl 2+ shields.

By Hitch Go To PostMirages passive can fuck off
I don't even know what it is, but I agree.
He goes invisible for 5 seconds when he's downed. Its more annoying than overpowered.
Need to get used to throwing a grenade at downed enemies I think, finishing moves and shooting takes an age
Shotguns get the job done as well, but I'm not normally carrying one after the mid-game

By DY_nasty Go To Postfinishing moves take FOREVER
It’s an odd design decision, one of my few criticisms of the game.
Downed players tank a lot of shots, and can pick up knockdown shields to tank even more shots and I feel it’s to encourage using a finisher move. Yet the finishing moves take too long and leave you too vulnerable to viably use most of the time.
Odd design decision bro the executions are there purely for flash/style. It's an extravagant teabag you're not supposed be doing them all the time. It's why one of the epic armor bonuses gives you a boost for doing one...or the fact that there is a badge for having your whole squad do one in a match.
It takes long and downed players have defenses because it's a team game. The whole system exists so they can get a chance to come back. It's not supposed to be easy or tactical. It's a punishment.
If you down someone, they get away and revived it isn't because you couldn't get close to press a win button lol. You down someone you should be immediately looking for their squadmates and THEN if it's clear they can't make it to him, that he overextended, then you drop your dick on his face and loot his corpse.

Shroud has to be the streamer who has gain more with Apex. He is having his most watched stream ever right now, was at 230k at one point.
garbage games tonight. dumb teammates and jumpmasters who dive into loot-dry areas and then run off solo

Fam, calm down. That’s just my take on it that downed players can tank too many shots and it feels like it’s to encourage using the finishers.
Don’t make me type “IMO” before and after everything I post, pls.
By Hitch Go To PostThe pistols in this are so fucking bad. Worse than the strife in blackout
the wingman is one of the best guns in the game
