Apex Legends: 20 Things We Wish We Knew Before Starting

In team play, the Dome Shield can be useful to protect players from incoming damage, giving them space to revive teammates and to avoid Gibraltar’s bombardment should a player choose to use it. However, in Solos, in spite of any protection, its high visibility makes Gibraltar a target by drawing attention from other players. Because it’s so short, Gibraltar can only move so far away from it before it times out. Because it gives away his location, the use of the shield leaves him vulnerable to snipers, counter-strike attacks, and so

Only sixteen players are dropped into each match for this game, and as they complete certain tasks, currency is awarded that can be used to get equipment or specific upgrades. Unfortunately, the game didn’t have the polish or originality that other battle royale games that came before it did, which led people to play this one less. It eventually went free-to-play and remains that

Sometimes, in a 3v3 team play situation, Mirage players can get away with this in the confusion of a fight, where bullets, smoke, and gas all contribute to the chaos. In a 1v1 Solo Mode situation, it’s hard to say that the decoy will do much beyond allowing the enemy to infer a Mirage’s location based on the direction the decoy r

Respawn Entertainment announced that it will soon introduce Solos as a limited time mode in _ Apex Legends _ . This revelation follows speculation that a previous Electronic Arts statement referring to a major event involving "one of the most fan-requested features since the launch of Apex" was simply an option for no-fill squa

Gibraltar already has one of the largest hitboxes in the game. This makes him much easier to hit than characters with smaller hitboxes, such as Wraith and Lifeline. Pair that with the fact that both his Gun Shield and Dome of Protection Newcastle Abilities guide give away his location, and it presents real challenges in competitive Solo p

PUBG had its fair share of flaws over the years, namely with graphical issues, but it has since ironed them out. PUBG did lose a lot of its players to other battle royale games, but it is quickly rising upward to claim its old spot on the gaming throne ag

Realm Royale is fun, as it plays around with different abilities, but it has received criticism for being too derivative of Fortnite . Still, there’s a lot of fun to be had with this game, but be careful. It’s possible to glitch the game, making it so you’re just a sitting target until someone takes you out or the storm gets

Potential ideas include slowing down the regeneration of Pathfinder’s zip line, introducing a way to tear down the zip lines similar to the way players can break Wattson’s fences, or introducing a grapple gun-type tool in the environment that allows other characters to grapple a limited number of times. Wraith may be a bit tougher, but perhaps certain player attributes, such as Caustic's gas, can cause the character to still take damage while in the void. Of course, it's worth noting that players are likely to push back against such major nerfs to either of these favorite charact

The Final Fantasy VII Remake announcement at E3 2015 is considered by many to be one of the best moments in the history of the conference, yet almost no new information has been revealed about the game since. If Square Enix is finally ready to show the game again, then it's possible that a release date might be forthcom

The upcoming E3 show has a jacked roster that is filled with some of the most highly-anticipated video games of all time. Screen Rant is here to provide you with the information concerning the games that will definitely be appearing at the event, as well as sharing the rumors and speculation about other titles that could be revea

It's an unreliable tactic for a number of reasons. First of all, this game is incredibly fast. Players zip and dash around the map at all times. They're hard enough to hit at medium ranges. But when you're looking down a scope at these players from a far distance, it's incredibly hard to "lock on" to the enemy. There's also bullet drop in this game, which means you have to aim way higher at long distances, and lead your targets when they're mov

Bloodhound, the game’s mysterious gender non-binary tracker being, is arguably one of the most interesting characters in the entire _ Apex _ arena. However, their Tactical Ability is questionable for Solos, and their Ultimate Ability is simply not useful in this m

One of the biggest challenges of Apex Legends Solos revolves around whether there’s enough character balance to prevent lobbies from being comprised of only one or two different characters. Recently, TheGamer shared its top _ Apex Legends _ character picks for players grinding toward wins in Solos . Now, it’s time to run down the characters that won’t stand a chance without major bu

You're much more likely to hit something this way. And if you're smart, you'll aim for the upper chest, which means you still have a slight chance of hitting someone in the head if they move in a certain way. Sure, there might be veterans out there who can pull off head-shots with certain weapons. But the main priority in this game is simply hitting the target, which is definitely hard when everyone's moving so f
