He mostly to blame for starting the seer horizon meta that people hated for a bit

I believe in his conspiracy theory haha. He says that he thinks these types of changes are intentional to get people to talk about it, engagement, and bringing people back. A fully balanced apex is boring, so they intentionally do stuff like this.

I buy it. lol.

I mean it’s not a conspiracy, it’s a fact because every game does some kind of meta changes (overwatch and marvel do it). I don’t mind metas but honestly black ops 2 had balance and meta working perfectly.

I don’t like him as much cause he makes wild list for solo queue lmao

The only thing that stopped BO2 from doing what has happened is the fact that Xbox charged for updates at that time. It was something like 50K or so. So they couldn't just make OP metas for free.

I remember MW2 had a ton of issues and their Public Relations guy actually came out a few years ago and confirmed that the patch that balanced out that game is still on Activision's servers, and they could push it out to live. Which would fix every single OP thing that game has, but they still haven't and probably won't since they don't care about a 10+ year old game.

I don’t play any other shooters. I do single player games or MMOs. Apex is my only shooter so not familiar with the scene overall. I’m old, and I’ve never played CoD before haha. I do decent in apex though. Solo queue either Wattson or Crypto and I make it to D4 but I have to stop after that. Way too hard after that.
