Hello everyone, i want to share my opinion after playing some games in Season 6. First of all i want to start with legends buffs/nerfs:
Legends: I saw a topic in legend feedback section, there were lots of cool and reasonable ideas for changes, that would make game better and fun for everyone. Octane and Loba still joke legends and require a buff. I usually play lifeline/mirage/wattson/bangalore and i like where they at. I dont understand why u keep nerfing Pathfinder, i rarely play him, but even i think its unfair what u guys did to him, just make a compromise already and buff the grapple cd a bit. I always liked Bloodhound but rarely played him cause i hate his ultimate, but the changes u did are making him very strong and i also like lvl50 bp skin, gonna main this dude now. The thing is why u buff legend which already at a solid state, when u have legends that are very bad..
Weapons: Another thing i dont understand, why buff Hemlock and Prowler, they are very great guns, people are crying about hemlock since last season and every high level player use prowler cause its insane, why u buff guns that doesnt need a buff?
I played about 10-15 games won some of them tried all guns, i can say only 1 devotion is way too strong, u give a care package weapon to everyone and u only nerf mag size? no damage/recoil nerfs? no spawn rate nerfs? Also Rampart got passive boosting her LMG skills, so she can get a care package gun by just finding all attachments? This is not balansed at all, why we need other guns where there is free care package gun for all? This one should be nerfed asap.
Other weapons are pretty solid, i like the Volt as alternative to R99, still not sure how to properly use it, dont think it require a nerf though.
Armor: Changes are interesting, i still not sure if it require a change, For me Games were much fun with EVO shields and less ttk, its more risky to play without thinking what u doing, ur without a cover for a second = dead, so it provides more tactical gameplay.
Ranked: I was Diamond3 season 5 and 4. U mentioned that only ~4% of playerbase reach ranked and higher, if u didnt know Diamond3 (Pred lobby) is where all higher rank players play together, its full of cheaters, yes u can sometimes see a cheater in Normal but its like 1 of 100+ games maybe even 200, but in pred lobby every single lobby have atleast 1 cheater, a lot of people boosting accounts ( 2 cheaters + 1 guy (without cheat being boosted) the dude plays bloodhound and scans (get assists) his 2 cheater teammates destroy everyone. This is just 1 example of boosting i saw with my own eye`s. I live in Asia, and i had to swap to EU and play with ping, because asian servers ranked is just 50% or more cheaters, u can often see Cheater Vs Cheater. That is insane my friends. I assume because of how different the situation is on different servers or how low is high rank playerbase u dont pay much attention to this problem, but if u want feedback i can say this is the biggest problem of Apex Legends.
Matchmaking: skill-based matchmaking is not working well guys, im fine with having lvl 30 guys on my team when i play normals, cause i dont play solo much anyway. But if ur a newcomer and u constanly being put in high skill enviroment ul be pissed, its very hard to improve if u play with guys who destroy u in 1 second, cause thats what lvl 500 do to a lvl30 newcomer. Game should be fun, it should be fun in normal gamemode, but new guys will not like this, u also can see a lot of SBM topics in this forums. Maybe u should consider this, but also be aware of smurfs.
Thanks everyone for attention and spending time reading this mess, please give ur opinions on what i said and what u think about the game urself.
Hope we will make Apex best battle-royale together.

This game has become unplayable. The introduction of the new map (which needs a lot of quality of life updates, ie the invisible wall ontop of the house near Lava Fissure), charge rifle, SBMM, and increased bullet size for snipers / shotguns has destroyed the balance the game had during previous seasons. Also the Ranked point system needs to be re-worked as it brick walls you once you reach your peak. I get its supposed to be hard to obtain higher ranks but I shouldn't be able to breeze through bronze, silver, gold, in a week and get brick walled at platinum forever. Not sure if its the SBMM but I feel like I'm constantly getting dropped into lobbies with lower level players on my team. If I'm dropping in a platinum lobby why am I getting paired with people of lower rank (gold or silver) and facing platinum opponents? Doesn't seem to make sense and the whole game has lost its charm from the previous seasons due to it. Also as stated earlier the map seems to have all sorts of issues with movement and invisible walls. Not to mention its too large of a map and due to its size required the guns to be rebalanced and its never been right since. After playing this game from Day 1, literally the morning it released, I have unfortunately deleted it. I might be back if they acknowledge their mistakes but I dont think they will. Maybe they'll pull a fortnite and say "alright we messed up time for a redux" but I doubt it. I feel like I'm watching the beginning of the end. As stated above this is basically fortnite season 7, they added a whole bunch of crap thats unnecessary and theres only a few select weapons that you can use and be competitive as they are overpowered. If I wanted to play fortnite I would still play fortnite which now that this game has jumped the shark I might go back to. The current state of the game sucks.

So i think they messed up season 6. The World's edge mpa has too many things on it. I think to nerf shields was the dumbest idea cuz you can now get shreded in 10 secs. I really miss skull town but to wait 7 days to play is dumb plus, WHERE IS TRAIN???. I don't see all varity of guns only mozams and snipers. Respawn was trying to fix the loot system in Apex legends but they just messed it up completly. It feels like Fortnite season 10, too much items. Please fix. I am just speaking for the Apex commuinity.
Love-
Some dude that hates season 6 but loves Apex in General.

i feel like people who have played since season 0 have been cheated. The new Evo idea is absolutely horrible. Every shield's health being reduced by 25% was a horrible idea. I have played and based my entire strategy on going with 200 health all game and now that is ruined. The starting with Evo was fun with King's Canyon, and I hated that mode on world's edge. Its now also ruined and I get an entire week of this (even more) ruined world's edge with ridiculous amounts of loot. I thought the game was perfect in Season 5 but I guess you guys had to make all these unreasonable tweaks for a newer fanbase. Pls change the shield health back and completely get rid of the evo idea. I hate this apex with a passion. and especially more cause I can't even play the only good map for an entire week.

Have you tried the season? I didn't think I was going to like it at all, however after playing I think it may be the best season yet by far

I'm going to go against the grain from what I see in the comments and just say wow!
I genuinely did not think I would like the season after reading the patch notes... However
So far I am really enjoying the changes. The lighting update and performance enhancements can really be felt on console too!
Great job guys. The battlepass is a tad lackluster, and ranked is unbalanced as always, but so far I am loving the changes.

Have a chance by having less health against snipers? That doesn't make much since to me. triple take just comes with a choke now

@sup3r_fly54Its a better system imo players with tactical and gun skill have a chance vs campy evos
No camper will be beneficial, because they can still have edge in this. But it will be worst for aggressive players, simply because camping will be way better now with the legend, Wattson buff against Caustic trap(it will be mainly a camping legend now).
Lowering the HP, aka the TTK mean you will get killed way easier by a camper team on a high building. Good luck closing the distances now.
Its a horrible idea.
The game soon will be completely dead.
