They want you to spend money on their game for Apex packs. I for one will not spend one penny on this game even though i'm lvl 100+. Since they don't seem to be addressing any issues that are a real problem in the game, hacking, disconnects and so many other issues that are being posted. I personally don't see EA /Respawn doing much about anything since it was a free game to begin with. Even though they say "we are working on issues".

Don't act like you ever were going to spend money

Well its not 80s... welcome to 2019. In terms of competition between games rewarding is important these days.
Also you do not need to be an opposing voice on everything. sometimes the majority is absolutely right. you must give up this effort...

As previously stated best to wait and see what the battlepass brings. I don't think its entirely unreasonable to cap how much you can get from a free-to-play game for entirely free. At the end of the day its free to play not free to complete. So buying the battlepass that allows progression is acceptable to me. Just hope the progression is exciting and worthwhile. That said id like an increased cap on the levels too, even if just for the number with no reward, I don't like the idea that in x months/years time everyone will be 100 and some may have 5 years experience, some 5 months, and trackers will only be partially useful as someone could 'smurf' on a character they never use, or just remove trackers. Either way, that's my 2 cents.

With certain games that's true. Coming from a generation where playing games was always its own reward I can agree with that up to a certain point. Take The Witcher 3 for example, playing that game is its own reward because it's such a stunning experience from the gameplay to the main to story and even the small side stories, there was always something new to discover and be rewarded with BUT a game like Apex is very different in that regard.
There is no story, there is nothing new to discover. there is just drop in, fight, survive, maybe win and level up. The incentive to level up was Apex packs and Legend Tokens but if you're like me and dropped money to buy the two legends then one part of the incentive for progression (The legend tokens) now becomes meaningless and then eventually the other part of the progression (Apex PAcks) gets taken away completely leaving you with a very unrewarding experience in leveling up which means zero incentive for any further progression and when progression is really all the game has to offer to keep people playing then taking away the incentive for said progression leaves people feeling even more like thier time isn't being rewarded.
I bought the starters pack, the founders pack, have dropped money on coins and bought both legends. By this point I've speant over what you would spend on a triple A game's standard price point and I don't regret it at all because I had plans to spend literally hundreds of hours playing Apex BUT when you make it to lvl100 everything does feel like it drops off and you don't really feel like spending time/money on the game anymore because of that.
I used to get home from work an want to hop straight on Apex with my buds but after reaching level 100 I find myself just shrugging Apex off and finding something else to play because I know there's no point in me leveling up anymore because I get nothing for it. 71,400 Legend Tokens is what I have right now and the only thing leveling up is going to do is get me more of the meaningless currency I can't use.

It would be cool to have regeneration like they did on titanfall but it just be to show have many times you hit max level like im a Gen 4 on Tf2, and i agree they should add daily challenges or gen rewards etc

After all that hype, this battlepass is completely disappointing... Apparently they don't care about our recommendations, ideas, wishes... No content for post lvl100... No daily quests... There's no new way for spend these legend tokens. Only unnecessary, trash rewards with a fresh 100 level... This pass can be content for only one month, not for three months... 20x badge, 9x tracker, 9x intro and same ugly skin for every weapon... Are you serious or is this an april fools joke? Do we really get the same badge over and over and over and over again!?!?!? F**** twenty times......

At the minimum a level reset each season would be nice.i spend money on games I enjoy but I ain't a big baller. I usually buy value packs like the founders and starter packs. If I have to grind this game several hours a day for sub par battle pass rewards its gonna get old quick and you'll lose a lot of players like me who will spend money but not hundreds a month. You lose a few million players like me and ur losing g a lot of income.
