Following widespread outrage and unsolved issues, Apex Legends has lost nearly 50% of its players on Steam ahead of Season 22 next week.

I used to really love this game. It has so much potential to be more than a battle royale, but it took like 4 years to get a permanent non BR gamemode. Battle passes only work if your players don’t get burnt out… And don’t get me started on collection events 2: electric boogaloo, this time with more gambling!

I left when they made shields only upgradable by doing damage. If you’re not a top-tier player you’re now just cannon fodder for those who are.

They literally blocked me from playing duos, and I can’t even fall back to arenas because that’s been gone for even longer, leaving the only mode I’m mildly interested in playing to be mixtape, which rotates through game-types that have the mechanical depth of a puddle.

I like some of changes in recent seasons, the ability upgrades, the new class passives, the new shield leveling…

But I can’t play duos with my one other friend who still plays so it’s moot.

50% vs. when?

The article explains it in the second sentence, and gives further details in the third and fourth sentences.
Did you just the headline?

The start of season 21 (May 7, 2024) had 428,000ish players, right now there are 210,000ish players.

I’m certainly not going to be duped into clicking on an article that omits such critical information from the headline. I’m just going to assume they’re creating “news” that is much ado about nothing, as is so often the case.

They need to properly support TF2.

They need to release TF3. Hell add a battlepass, just give us the satisfying movement system and Titans back.

TF2 was the perfect mix of Unreal Tournament and Mech Warrior.

Titanfall is hands down the most fun I’ve ever had with a shooter. I didn’t even like titan combat, 99% of the time I just ordered mine around in AI mode and played like a lil robot killing ninja. Only game where my team could get their shit kicked in the whole match, lose by a wide margin, and it would still be a real fun experience.

Burn cards were a terrible fucking idea tho.

“It’s only the 10th most played game on Steam. DeAD gAMe!!”
