I NEVER thought I would have to post something like this, because I LOVE APEX, it's creators, & the gaming community as a whole.
That being said, as a person who's been playing since DAY 1. (significant because APEX's release Happened to be on the same week as my Birthday)
I CANNOT play APEX right now, since this EVENT started, I have had SO MUCH TROUBLE just trying to play the GAME, FULL STOP.
I am NOT an employee or a Volunteer. I'm going to use this thread as a place to discuss issues with the game, & potential ways to SOLVE said problems.
I'll even make it nice & EASY to understand the problems I'm having, STARTING with the MOST Significant, & order of IMPORTANCE.
1) DISCONNECTION ISSUES
- NOBODY at EA/RESPAWN, has put out an OFFICIAL NOTICE to the playerbase. So I'm doing it here.
- REMOVE ALL of your ANIMATED BANNER POSES, use ONLY STATIC images, RARE POSES(the one's in BLUE text)
- Having an ANIMATED BANNER equipped WILL CAUSE your game to CRASH, & If you get lucky, & YOUR game DOESN'T crash, guess what, YOUR ANIMATED BANNER, WILL cause some OTHER PLAYERS game to CRASH, just from VIEWING it at the PRE GAME "Champion Squad" showcase, or just by pausing & VIEWING the squad tab.(same with END GAME Results page)
THIS is making EVERY game I play a constant NIGHTMARE of RECONNECTING, & THEN having 1 teammate, or NONE at all in TRIOS. (so I just FALL OFF the map, or land in LAVA, because I CANNOT win as a SOLO, fighting teams of 3)
2) CHEATERS on Console
- All these clowns, just demolish any lobby, with NO RECOIL hacks applied to their controller, so Its POINTLESS to play against them, & is EXASPERATED when playing RANKED. (So NO POINT in attempting to play RANKED & better my skills as a player)
3) SMURF ACCOUNTS
- They COMPLETELY DESTROY the whole point of matchmaking.
All this has lead me to NOT playing APEX, because there is ZERO FUN to be had, So I've been playing other games instead.
I'm just waiting for an update to address these issues, it just seems like everyone is on Vacation & nobody's at the office working on anything.
This TRULY comes from a place of LOVE. (if I didn't care, I wouldn't be on these forums, I'd be utilizing my time elsewhere)

@SILVERisSORRY As forum regulars, we all know that these problems exist already but it has gotten to the point that even I myself is getting frustrated. It has been 2 seasons of mostly nothing for people who exclusively play BR like me. Even the LTMs are copy pasted. Season 9 we just had the old maps with no effort at all to put out and S10 we had an arenas LTM with just carepack weapons in the store.
A few hours ago I was just thinking of what "content" we got this season other than cosmetic events. It's either we didn't get anything substantial or it was so irrelevant for me that I've forgotten. Please correct me if I missed something.
Season 10 "content"
1. WE new POIs (which I like)
2. Seer (as expected in every season)
Other than that, it's all arenas like the ranked mode (that's poorly implemented) and the new Encore map. As I've said in my "Lost my drive to play" post, season 11 will be the make or break season of Apex. Respawn had the whole S10 being a mess (except the first few weeks which was smooth), and if they stumble on S11, I can see people raging in these forums. Respawn, we love your game so please step up! LOL!

You share Trello links, yet Ryan kinda insinuated Trello isn't a thing anymore.

They finally acknowledged the issue, and they can't fix it.
