The gameplay trailer starts with a friendly-sounding advertisement for Hammond Robotics. If you're not familiar with Hammond Robotics, check out the (fake) company's website to learn about its role in building "hundreds of advanced spaceborne and mechanized defense solutio

There will be two types of rewards available during the Grand Soirée Arcade event. First, there’s a variety of gun skins and a special Mirage skin that will be given out by earning points from the event challenges. The other fancy skins will added to Apex’s direct purchase shop along with other cosmetics inspired by Art Deco designs. Let’s take a look at what qualifies as fancy in the world of Apex Lege

Respawn has done an excellent job of listening to player feedback, and while I don’t know that the changes to SBMM will be instant, I have no doubt that the team there is listening to feedback. Algorithms are extremely tough to master, especially when it comes to a software product that’s still relatively new, like Apex Legends . If I’ve had Instagram for seven years and still can’t get it to stop showing me pictures of my friends’ babies, then suffice it to say players may have to be patient while Respawn masters its SBMM mathemat

To think about it another way, the average household income sinks significantly if you take out a handful of billionaires that skew the data set. Using made-up numbers again, assume that if you include them, an "average" income across a given country is $500,000 dollars. But the vast majority of people make much less than that. Take the billionaires out, and the average income starts to look more like $50,

Rumors of a PVE mode for Apex Legends have been lurking in the fan community for some time now, and players are quick to leap at any obscure leak or unused code that might imply as much being on the hori

Revenant boasts one of the most horrifying appearances among his Apex Legends companions, and this is huge because of his nature as a Simulacra. Since he’s practically a robot, Revenant isn’t actively worrying about risking his life on the field. And it’s this "control" over death that makes him utterly terrifying, especially with a powerful Apex Legends story guide Legends Assault Rifle and other straightforward weaponry. Here’s what fans can expect from using Reven

Apex Legends is the result of careful balance tweaks from the masterfully made Titanfall 2 , combined with typical gameplay systems all come to expect from a Battle Royale . But that is selling this game short. The inclusion of unique character abilities and squads helps this BR title stand above the r

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

Throughout the commercial, scenes flicker, projecting the aura that things aren’t as safe and secure as Hammond would like you to believe. Superimposed images show a very different Capitol City, which is split into two sections with lava flowing through

Maximize the Totem through planning: The Totem is extremely helpful but is also dependent on the team’s planning. For instance, players should recharge their Shields prior to entering Shadow Mode to get Shield protection upon returning. Likewise, players should remember to use Launch Pads (Octane) and Dimensional Rift (Wraith) to travel to combat locations much fas

Alternator (SMG): Serving as one of the most accessible Light Ammo weapons in the game, the Alternator is easy to find and relatively easy to use. Despite its rather weaker damage, its quick-firing nature makes this a decent Secondary Weapon for Revenant to use in emergenc

Take what made Bad Company 2 good and multiply it by 3. That result is what Battlefield 3 is, a masterstroke in multiplayer design within the first-person shooter genre. While the singleplayer campaign was overall generic, the few vehicle focused missions stole the show and made the campaign enjoyable. The addition of cooperative missions helped pass the time, but the multiplayer here is the best the series has ever seen, only being matched by its sequel Battlefiel

LIVE. DIE. LIVE (January 16 - 17): As long as one member of your team is alive, the entire team will respawn when the ring closes, so make sure everyone you meet is good and dead or their friends might make a comeb

Some have suggested that instead of matchmaking based on skill, lower-skilled players should grind harder and play better in order to compete with top players. First of all, not everyone has 3,000 hours a year to put into a video game. But more importantly, I'm not really sure how a person can improve when they're getting clobbered every game. After a certain point, it probably wouldn't matter anyway because the player would eventually find a different game that's more fun for t
