Apex Legends: 5 Things We Want In Season 4 (& 5 Things We Can Lose)

Movement is life, almost every time. Once a team recognizes your position, they can formulate a plan to eliminate you. This even holds true in the middle of a firefight. It’s easy to get trapped in a building while the enemy flushes you out, or decides to push. Generally speaking, it is best to stick together. But it can also help to level-change within structures, particularly if your teammates are already down. Somehow, it is surprisingly easy to lose an individual if they circle around, double back, climb or descend throughout combat. And if the enemy is weakened, you can even catch them unawares while they try to loot your dead teamma

It’s hard to know what to make of another iteration of Anthem . Certainly, people won’t flock to it in droves due to name recognition or a relationship with the franchise. Without that going for it, Anthem 2.0 will have to be a groundbreaking game if it wants to attract a fanb

Unless you’re sporting some gold, healing can easily get you killed. And even if you eliminate an entire squad, you are always vulnerable to a Third Party. They will be looking to take advantage of your weakened health after hearing all the gunfire. True, many have learned that looting an eliminated enemy will offer up a full Body Shield. However, this can also be crucial in the middle of a firefight. If you’re out of Shield Cells or Batteries, you can finish off a knocked opponent for their armor. More likely, it can also genuinely be worth it to swap for lesser armor sitting nearby, just to survive in a pinch. Particularly if your teammates are down, leaving you without cover or t

Does the idea of leaving a bug behind as we plow into season four make for a hot take? You wouldn't think so, no. But given that this particularly problematic bug impacting an important aspect of gameplay has persisted for more than a month, it might be hotter than we'd initially susp

The final round can result in some bizarre positions. This is when even the tournaments become messy. Strategy is correspondingly reduced as the Ring subtracts available area. This also heightens the effects of every maneuver. Ultimates can be used to turn the tide in the final round. Lifeline’s care package can offer you cover if everyone is forced into the open. Pathfinder’s zipline can be used to swing back and forth like the equally quippy Spider-Man , above a maelstrom of warring squads in the tiniest zones. And if teams are trapped above and below each other, some ultimates decide champions. Drop air strikes at your feet to attack the ceiling. Or if it’s a health war, use the maximum capacity of Wraith’s portal to survive the orange as it closes in complet

As a result, when developer Game Freak announced that cuts made to the national dex, fans were understandably upset. Here is the most profitable franchise in video game history being chopped down because, according to Game Freak, creating every single Pokémon from the ground up would be a tremendous drain on resources and take years to compl

Now that the third season of Apex Legends is winding down, fans are looking towards the next season. Season three has undoubtedly been this battle royale's most divisive slice of seasonal content thus far, seeming to have hit roughly as many notes as it missed, and fans haven't been content to remain quiet about

And with season four just around the corner, many newcomers have refined their skills since launch. The level of strategy is also far more pronounced for the genre—and essential among teammates that frequently lack common sense. So, here are some clever tips for skilled players that have learned to become creative and quick-wit

You can revive them on your end, rather than fend off the chaos. This is also a great way to help out teammates that might otherwise bleed out from the Ring. If they’re out of health, they can still crawl through Wraith’s portal to survive even lon

While there were so many outstanding game releases in 2019, what usually garners the most attention is consumer backlash against developers. In each of the following circumstances, a lack of communication or an overwhelming show of greed was often the reason for a fallout between the two sides, and hopefully there are lessons to be learned to make 2020 a better y

It's impossible to say whether Anthem would have fared better had it not been competing Apex Legends . __ The two are very different games. One is a PvP game, Naraka Bladepoint while the other is an RPG with gunplay mechanics. However, they share similarities in that they’re both sci-fi FPS games that rely on gunplay and tactical strat

It would be fascinating to see Destiny on the small screen, as there are a myriad of storylines that explore different planets and realities. Like the games, a show could explore these narratives from the perspective of a Guardian. Different seasons could reflect the events of different expansions (I'd love more than anything to see a made-for-TV retelling of the events from the original Destiny 's The Taken King expansi
