*** APEX LEGENDS *** - ̿ ̿ ̿̿’̿’\̵͇̿̿\=(•̪●)=/̵͇̿̿/’̿̿ ̿ ̿ ̿ (1 Viewer)

A couple things after talking yet again to the 13 year old - one I didn't know (and still want to verify)

- he said that Caustic traps will destroy Wattson fences, even teammates.  He claims they stopped playing them together b/c they would have fences up + gas traps, people would active the traps, and the gas would take out their fences.   He said that's a way to battle a Wattson who has a building secured - put a gas trap by the door and shoot it, and if the nodes are close enough it will knock them out.   Thought it was interesting, and want to still verify all that.  

-  I was talking about our comment about being caught in the open with Wattson and negating her effectiveness and he said  - "you still gotta throw down that Ult by a rock".  I keep forgetting that protects from all incoming grenades, Gibby/Bangalore Ults, etc..  and charges up shield for the team.   

 
Finally to the point to where I'm winning the majority of my 1v1 battles. Took me forever to get to that point. Now have to figure out how to maneuver and take down multiple opponents. 

 
I THINK the new controller and settings are helping a bit.  Feel a little more confident hitting some shots than before.  Still, the settings are a jump, and I am still getting used to them.  - back up to 5 regular and 4 ADS sensitivity.  

When I log on, I will post the controller settings the video I saw suggested and what I switched mine too.  I can't think of them right now.  

 
Sigh.  I guess maybe not much tonight.  

I just went in there to kick him off at the usual 11pm, and for some reason him and his buddies decided to have a kill contest tonight.  They are playing 8 games to see which team gets more, and they are only on game 4.   Couldn't start this #### at 8pm, boys??

 
So looks like both sticks are at "instant" sensitivity,  and the curve adjustment all the way to the left.  Both triggers set to 0-1 so they fire at the slightest touch.   

Just about every suggestions about controls have the bottom paddles on the elites set up for jump and crouch, but that was for sure too much of a change at once.  It was effecting me pulling the trigger.

I've tried the paddles multiple times and just can't get used to them.  I don't like jumping during fights like Sheik does anyway, so it's not a huge deal not using the paddles. Only thing I wish I could change was an easier way to quickly heal without having to pause for a second. 

 
Game settings that were different for me:

Auto sprint on

Compact prompt style

Sensitivity to 5/4

No trigger dead zone

Linear response curve

Small look dead zone

Vibration off.  

The one I haven't done that was suggested was switching the crouch to hold.   I have crouch on the right stick now, so that sucked.  

 
Told Karma this last night, but I'm looking at more damage and knockdowns per game than just K/D compared to previous seasons to track improvement. The Mastiff has really done wonder for my close-up battles. Then sticking with G7 and 3x for long distances. 

 
I have been having a little more luck with Wingman as well.  

Felt like last night about the only ammo in abundance was shotgun ammo.

 
K/D is going down as I get to higher ranks. Guess that’s better than randoms leaving all the time. Think I’ll settle in at the beginning of gold tier. Don’t see myself progressing past that.

 
The kid is trying to grind Ranked this season too with his buddies.  I THINK he is at the level above Gold, but not 100%.  Sounds like for sure there is even more camping than we encounter on our lowly levels.  Basically says they need 3-4 kills and a decent top 3 finish for points, so they try for kills at the start and then go hide/camp.

Sounds really boring

 
There's no 10 kill badge that I'm aware of, but you'll have the 2k badge soon.  Finishing off opponents counts toward overall damage, too. 

 
I think I misspoke one night too.  No 10 kill badge.  There is a 20 kill badge (Pyramid of skulls) and a damage badge  (hammer) for a 2k, 3k, and 4k damage games.  

 
Couldn't get on until late. Played duos for a few. Quite a few kills and a couple 1k damage games but no wins.

Anyone tried the new update yet?

No.  Son said the map is back on rotation though!!   I for sure welcome that.  Any other changes happen?

He also said he changed his settings on PS4 and claimed to have no recoil and was blasting fools.

How’s he getting the no recoil

He is a bit, but also is able to steady his aim with right stick too.  He is in firing range consistently putting 200 damage on the mannequins with the guns though -301/99. I think there was an adjustment from classic to steady curve that was the main difference.

Took a muscle relaxer for the back and ended up passing out about 8:00.   

I will probably be on tonight since I have the day off tomorrow.  Unless I passed out or get sucked into watching a horror movie.
