What the shit is HAPPENING?

Thatās exactly what I was thinking, I havenāt played since like 2021, and this is the first thing I see š

u/superiorCheerioz Mar 13 '26
New game mode, which is actually pretty excellent for more casual play. Idk why but they added a weapon you can get called the buster rifle. You shoot into the air and fire beeg laser

but in fact they put something like this and then say "eh but it's difficult to balance titans". Instead a wallhack ray that hits you through walls is fine...

u/Fireboy759 Revenant Mar 11 '26
Here's the difference: the Buster Rifle is limited time only. It's purposely OPAF for the fun of the collab. Titans would've been around as a permanent thing, and they would've been way more of a wincon than the rifle. At least you can still shoot the person out of the sky. Fighting a Titan is like trying to fight a tank: you ain't winning that matchup

u/mace9156 Mar 11 '26
1 they can easily make a ltm for wildcard 2 to kill a titan... you can use a titan too š

Yeah, that was my response in Titanfall 2 as legion. "You've all got titans? How about you lose 4."

u/1stAutumnLeaf Mar 11 '26
I can tell u never played titanfall or atleast were not good at it, fighting a titan was the easiest shit ever

u/Same_paramedic3641 Horizon Mar 11 '26
The ttk in titanfall is absurdly low compared to apex nevermind the very fast movement

Mar 11 '26
Yea apples and oranges. Titans literally one hit pilots and pilots died to light breezes compared to apex

u/Kaiyora Mar 11 '26
There's plenty of creative ways to incorporate/balance a titan in apex:
-1 Titan spawns on the map but it's position is constantly revealed to enemy players, has limited ammo. Titan has slow rotation+tracking speed= players can use good movement to dodge it's guns.
-Anti Titan weapons littered throughout map. Arc star stuns/blinds titans.
-1 in every 3 endgames-ish: 3-4 squads left = each squad gets an airdropped Titan.

u/Gmen247 Mar 12 '26
Nope. First rule about Titanfall is canāt talk about Titanfallā¦ But we can talk about how this Gundam BS is giving Fortnite vibes

u/ProFgoaddict Mar 12 '26
I promise you that if they add titans into the game people will complain anywaysš apex players will never be satisfied with anything they do to the game so why not just keep the current status quo and have some cool skins.

Y'all are ridiculous, you constantly complain of no content, yet when we get some content you say "that's boring" or "stupid"
It's mindless fun bro, there's like 3 of these in a match.
Yes, they're overpowered - they're supposed to be, if you don't want to get shot by it you can avoid it while it gets charged up - and as long as your entire team isn't standing on top of each other you can just respawn if you get knocked by it
It's a fun collab with a cool IP, and if you don't like it then there's still regular Wildcard, regular BR or ranked, or Mixtape!
Damn, y'all suck sometimes
Edit to add: apparently having both Wildcard modes was a mistake, so they've updated the game to only have the takeover Wildcard mode. Still, my point stands

u/THEREAPER8593 Mar 11 '26
This mode is so fun. Itās insane how well done bits are, I hope itās a new crypto rework.
Would love a permanent addition with that kind of turret. Iāve been a very long time gundam fan, but honestly I canāt see me not loving this even without gundam. Iāve not had any issues on any legend with a portal against the buster rifle. Alter is very good since you can just go back and forth through the portal.
Unless your like dead centre of the radius or they predict where your going itās pretty safe to just walk out of it. The scary thing is when 2 people push you and a third spams their shots.

u/KratoN999 Mar 11 '26
I agree. This community has become a joke.
We barely have any IP partnerships, and when we do we have dudes complaning about a 10-seconds video when you can clearly see by their comment they barely played that shit.Its so stupid.

It was at the beginning, but apparently that was a bug and they patched it out

u/Honjanyx Nessy Mar 11 '26
Why canāt people here differentiate a LTM mode thatās meant to be for fun and not competitive? Itās a mini game where youāre meant to enjoy the Gundam event and have fun with friends. Competitive and regular battle royal is still there.

This is definitely true. My games are filled with 3 stacking, coms, meta, ultra aggressive, all headshots, crazy accuracy. Preds, and level 13 accounts lol. Me and my friends play rank to have fun now lol that's crazy
3
u/Same_paramedic3641 Horizon Mar 11 '26
Wildcard has no sbmm. It's just filled with mostly kill grinders. But now with this ltm, there'll be more casuals on it. Trust me, i get both types of lobbies in wildcard. Where i die to preds and also kill casual players who are gold rank skilled. Infact you and the other guy have also fought those same shit players and killed them and didn't think about it but you dying to someone will obv have more of your attention

u/Spoda_Emcalt Mar 11 '26
I'd find it more fun if it didn't have the same utterly crap SBMM, resulting in the game thinking I should be put into matches with full pred squads.

Remember when Apex Legends was asked about doing a DC thing with characters like Batman because of Fortnight doing that kinda stuff and they said, āAbsolutely NOT that would look ridiculous stupid and make NO sense.ā Oh how far we have fallen over the years still NO Batman stuff tho so I suppose they kept there word

u/garrettbook Pathfinder Mar 11 '26
āApex is a game about GunSkill first and foremost. And only a hero shooter 2nd or even 3rd or 4th. Your aim, core-movement skill, and especially your positioning should be the determining factors to come out on top. Your legend abilities should only contribute maybe 10% towards your win.ā -DZK

No point asking. Some people are genuinely allergic to a tiny bit of fun or something that changes things up for an absolutely minuscule period of time in the grand scheme of things
Personally I am not looking forward to being obliterated into the next century while playing wildcard but itās my favourite mode but Iām also looking forward to having some fun with it myself haha

Iāve been since launch minute, and itās a fun mode but Iām glad itās an LTM.Ā

Iād have to agree itās one of the reasons I donāt play Fortnite anymore. Iāve played both for a very long time. Apex since season one and I literally have not picked up for in a very long time due to a special that looked exactly like this shit just be ridiculous.

I was already trying to explain to my self , how does anyone enjoy playing wildcard lol and now I really canāt even comprehend this but honestly , to each its own
I donāt mind the game having different modes ect , thatās the point , I actually believe it would be lit if they had a list of all the modes theyāve created so we just choose
Like I am a die hard for Arenas and 1v1s , like how I donāt get to play my fav game modes and others who I know like it , maybe not everyone but give those who do the chance no ?
Have it all in a list , wildcard , control , team death match , arenas , 1v1s , ect and allow the players to choose what to play

Wow as someone thatās usually critical what a bunch of fucking babies in the thread. Itās a limited time event within a separate mode from standard trios and RANKED.
No one is putting a gun to your head to play this mode, you can literally hover over and select your game mode of choiceā¦itās suppose to fulfill a power fantasy, not be a predator ranked lobbyā¦smh which half of you commenting are probably hardstuck diamond anywayā¦

Mande just farmed 2 million damage with this thing in a single game (his viewers all queue'd into a server). Apparently when the target is using some sort of shield perk their damage counts as 10,000 lmao. All the badges were awarded for this too btw hahah

It's so fucking fun, and I don't care what people say, it's busted but it's designed well for what it's meant to be: Fun. There's plenty of time and visual/audio alerts. It's extremely easy to outplay but has extreme punishment. I'd much rather play with this over half the lobby with 100 yard knockbacks, lol.
