No Ghosts In Apex Legends

The opponent isn't extremely clear in the image above, but is extremely pronounced in the video. It appears as though the gun and its bullets caused a graphical interference that tricked the player into thinking the opponent somehow disappeared. It's also possible that some lag on the enemy's side contributed to this as well. One common result of lag is that it results in choppy gameplay, which appears to other players as short-distance teleportati

In the video in question, it's possible that the character that suddenly appears was the player who died moments before. One can surmise that player's graphical body fell while their loot box remained on the s

When people first hear about Apex Legends , they most likely assume it's a game about characters shooting guns, and though that isn't an incorrect assumption, Respawn Entertainment has crafted a gameplay experience with a lot more depth than that. A primary example of that depth is the healer legend Lifel

If you're familiar with the characters in Apex Legends, then you are familiar with the adrenaline junkie known as Octane. He's an energetic guy who happens to sport a pair of bionic legs due to him blowing them off with a grenade in the pursuit of a race track rec

That situation is likely salvageable due to the otherwise full-priced game's instant addition to the subscription-based Xbox Game Pass service, but missteps taken by Metro Exodus publisher Deep Silver have all but overshadowed the launch of the fantastic post-apocalyptic experience when they made the boldly abrupt decision to snub Steam and limit the game's PC release to the Epic Games Store . It's unknown how deeply this last-minute choice made from the top-down has affected Metro Exodus ' sales, but it generated enough online backlash among outraged PC players to drown out any positive news about the g

**** Throughout the past few months, _ Apex Legends _ players have been sharing images that seem to imply there may be a ghost — or series of ghosts — lurking in the game’s backdrop.

This past week was crammed full of AAA game releases, with Friday alone having seen the simultaneous launches of Crackdown 3 , Far Cry New Dawn , Metro Exodus , and, for a select few PC players , Anthem .

When a free-to-play battle royale title so handily beats back an entire wave of full-priced games, developers and producers alike are left to scratch their heads and wonder what Respawn Entertainment's _Apex Legends has that their titles do

Metro Exodus is a diamond in the rough here in terms of its gameplay and story, with the other releases this week falling agonizingly flat in one area or the other. While Apex Legends is being universally lauded for its impressive blend of frenzy and strategy, as well as for its revolutionary ping system that makes teamplay easier and more integral than in any shooter before it, February has brought little else in the way of gameplay innovation. Crackdown 3 is a fairly mindless power fantasy sandbox, which is great for players seeking that experience, but disappointing to others due to how few additions it brings to the table when compared with the 12-year-old initial entry into the ser
