It happens in most games - a particularly overzealous player sees some specks in the distance, pings their location to their teammates, and starts shooting at them with an assault rifle. This is probably the worst thing you could possibly do. Sure, if you have a sniper rifle, then go crazy, but otherwise leave them alone. It's not only a huge waste of ammo, but it gives away your position to them and the squads in the nearby vicinity. Try tracking inst

Caustic's gas traps are one of the most frustrating things to encounter in the game. Finding yourself in the middle of a gas maze almost always results in elimination, and the traps can seem way too OP as a result. Luckily, there IS a way to counter the traps (aside from utilizing tactical abilities). Simply shoot the red portion of the trap (located near the bottom) in order to disable it, allowing safe passage for you and your team. Easy pe

You can also take a zip-line and choose to jump off— even if you're at a huge height. Generally speaking, running and jumping are huge factors in this game, so it makes sense that the game places almost no limits on your gameplay in this regard. It's a fun addition to the game - as long as you're actually aware of

Respawn has finally implemented a reporting feature for cheating and abusive players as well. People can report offending players either from the spectate view after dying or when viewing team Banner Cards in the Squad menu. Some bugs that have been squashed in the update include Pathfinder’s zipline failing to deploy when jumping, the ability to shoot while downed, and getting disconnected when unplugging a control

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

It's clear that the game is generating an enormous audience, and as such, more and more people are flocking to it. But this isn't like most games. Yes, it has a tutorial, but that is very brief and hardly goes into the mechanics and complexities of the game, its controls, and its various strategies. This obviously results in many ignorant players, many of whom could probably be better players if they knew the intricate mechanics of the game rather than just the base contr

Her Passive Ability allows her to heal herself much more quickly than other legends can heal themselves, which is extremely advantageous in any gunfight. And, while it’ll be much tougher for her to use her health drone in a Solo Mode 1-v-1 fight as the player will be unable to rely on teammates for protection while healing, this will always be useful right after a player has won a fight or for a quick replenish should the opponent be attacked by a third-party pla

Players love to execute each other. It's a nice way to rub your victory in their faces, and it looks cool to boot. But there's a time and a place for executions, and the middle of a gunfight is not one of them. You're better off shooting a downed enemy, because performing an execution leaves you wide open for attack. Plus, the animation is slow, so you're only wasting precious time by showing off. Save the execution for the last pla

She can bring someone back in 4 seconds, which is a full second faster than anyone else. At first glance, a second may not sound like a huge difference, but in the heat of battle, it could mean the difference between winning or losing a gunfight with another sq

Being the child of an engineer or scientist can often give you an intellectual advantage as science and math can come to you a lot more naturally. Wattson's father was an electrical engineer so it's no surprise that she has a natural engineering talent and interest just like he probably

Upon learning about her parent's war profiteering, Lifeline decided to commit herself to help those in need by enlisting in the Frontier Corps. They're essentially the Peace Corps of the Apex Legends/ Titanfall universe and are an organization focused on aiding Frontier communities who are in desperate need of h

Apex Legends divides its characters into types that allow players to understand at a glance what type of play style that character requires. Lifeline is a healer, so right off the bat players understand that if they choose her they play a vital part in helping their team surv

We have lots of other work going on behind the scenes and this remains high priority for us. We won’t be able to share many specifics of what we’re doing but we’ll strive to provide updates on progress for the things we can talk ab

When you read about Lifeline's personal story and journey from the daughter of war profiteers to being a world-Legend Class System healer and contributing member of the Frontier Corps, you scratch your head as to why she's in the Apex Ga

Enemies are very quiet even when landing from huge jumps, or when sliding. Obviously, wearing a headset will really help you hear this little audio cues, but even then, it's very easy for enemies to surprise you without you hearing a th
