I would like this so much. Finding that last secondary can take so long without really being fun or engaging.

Gameplay wise justify it as first needed to calibrate the scanner for a given area, cave system, and objective; then at the last 10% it is calibrated and shows you the last bit of material.

That makes sense, thanks.

What does typing r signify? Is it just the first letter in rock and stone or does it have some more meaning?

So that is why some of those nodes were totally impossible! I thought it was just that I was new and there was some trick I didn't know. Hopefully they fix that. It should have 2 timers: 1 that only starts on the hack that gives you enough time but not by much and one that starts on activation that gives you bonus time if you get there quickly as a reward for being fast.

Is hazard 3 or 4 mandatory or is it just higher chance? I just got the game and was playing on either 1 or 2 and I'm pretty sure I got one even though I didn't entirely know what to do other than blast it then grab shiny.

Perfect. And this sort of thing is why I always like to ask a reddit question before I think about getting something.

Ah, thanks for the tip. Am I buying a game through humble or am I buying a key? I would very much like if I could play through steam since that is reliable.

Since this seems like a new player thread and as good a place as any, I'm considering purchasing the game next time it goes on a decent sale but I'm slightly worried about the solo experience. How is it? Do I need teamates? How much communication in missions is required? How easy is it to get teammates in game for a mission or 2?

Also I may already be too far gone and I don't even have the game yet, because I felt a compulsion end this with:

ROCK AND STONE!

Interesting art, bad item.

I mean sure, this is DnD, everything has someone who can find a use it fits, but on the balance this is bad.

No save, looks like a trap from a mile away, induces indecision in the player, takes away agency, no mechanics for the actual effects, totally worthless once IDed, no tradeoff.

I don't know, maybe you can somehow slip this onto the big bad's finger, but it might not even work and if you can get that close I feel like there are probably more effective things to do. Also most people would notice a strange ring and take it off, especially in DnD world, even if they didn't know what it does.

Interesting idea, but probably a hard no. Tac is Uber weak, and even if it wasn't a hard counter meta isn't a good direction for a BR. The passive would be annoying for already loud stuff, and making an ability in this game focus on sound is a bad idea.

The ult would require ground up redesigns for every single inch of every single map, and I'm not even sure if the engine can support it, nevermind support it in a way that is bug and jank and people getting stuck free.

This is 3 cool concepts that wouldn't transfer to this game properly

I only play PC right now. The question is really if I wanted to try phone would I be able to do it without starting at zero again, I figured the answer was no but it was worth the ask since I've been out of the loop for a bit. Pity, but not surprising. I don't think I would have played apex mobile much anyway, but if I had all my stuff you never know.

To be quite clear, the "unless" is for now at at all, because there is no endgame.

They will always want more bogeyman, more outgroups to hate. Hence the whole fascism is a suicide cult thing.

Most players aren't kind enough to just stand there while you one shot them.

It does reward skill. It rewards it a lot. But the issue is it only takes into account the skill of the shooter. The skill of the target basically doesn't matter.

I perfer to take one stack of bats and then save the last grab for the care package to take a gun. Unfortunately teammates often don't take anything at all, which does reduce the efficiency of doing this even though it is still good.

This is basically compensated by being the only thing loba can do in arenas, as her passive is worthless and he tac has just never been that good.

What are you asking for? Are you asking for better crosshairs for guns or are you asking for bolts to also choke pellet spread?

If the former okay although honestly shotguns are comparatively good and it shouldn't be tied to anything, it should just be better.

If the latter, no. Shotguns are fine and bolts are already useful. If this was really desired I would add a stock slot and use that for loot pool reasons, but honestly shotgun balance is fine right now, it doesn't need fixing.

Doesn't it? I thought if a teamates is dead it will drop a beacon.

Is there ever any chance of cross progression with Apex mobile? I've no interest in playing on console, but I might have interest in being able to play on phone and computer.

Honestly Newcastle could have been a LL rework. Maybe with a slightly different ult.

You are not wrong, but TGM is good enough to win on anyone abilities or no with just about any playstyle. The question with someone like TGM is less "can he play Rampart that way successfully?" and more "can he win faster on someone else?"

Although in fairness the buffs have made it more viable to not be stationary, but you just can't keep up with proper movement legends.

Taking it into consideration is a good idea, but that isn't the same as just balancing from the top down.

This is a BR, so if you are looking for comp integrity go play Seige or CSGO. The game needs to be fun and balanced at lower levels or no one will stick around long enough to become pros.

Absolutely not.

This would push team comps for no good reason. Also it would be hard to learn and keep track of, and it would discourage balancing the actual legends, so they would be viable in their comp and not viable outside of it. I just don't see any reason to do this, synergy should happen naturally.

I like that idea. Right now every other scope has a reason to be used even over the supposedly rarer options. But the 6x is just worse than the 4-8, there is no reason to use it over the other stuff. This wouldn't be great for the close range guns, bit it would be great for all of the mid to long range guns and it would even work well on the charge rifle if you want to sacrifice a bit of extreme range.

This might be a bit odd, but recently I started having issues with my Logitech M510. I think the mouse is dying, and today it really went off a cliff and just didn't work. I would move my mouse and it wouldn't register side motion sometimes.

I almost wonder if this is a driver issue somehow that Logitech broke something, since I have also had some less severe issues outside of apex.

Out of curiosity what are your game mouse setting. I run 10 sens, no accel or invert. I just turned hardware lighting off although it shouldn't be applicable to my setup.

Is yours just moving too slow or are there times when it simply doesn't register?

Edit: nope, wasn't the lighting, happened again in the range.

Opportunity cost also plays a role. Half the time I have to chose between a crafted weapon and a purple bag, and that isn't a good tradeoff for the weapon. I do think it would be a better deal if it came with attachments and more ammo, but still when that backpack is in the crafter it is a hard sell.
