Having a game changed overnight hurts, even more so when we talk regarding multiplayer experiences where the power of the community is so wide. maybe Apex Legends doesn’t have the largest or most dedicated community, maybe it does, but what they all come to discuss is that the Ring in the Season 14 of battle royale is a torture which makes it a running simulator.
The truth is that the “rings” in the battle royale they are inherent to the gaming experience. These deadly walls come in various forms, from blazing fire at that battle royale that no one remembers Battlefield 5; laser in this Apex Legends; or clouds of blood in the recent Bloodhunt. This converts the battle royale in a genre that forces us to be in constant movementbut the Respawn Entertainment title community is not happy that the ring has reduced its duration between rounds and moves faster.
In figures, this translates into that of the 180 seconds that left us the first ring in the 3 maps, now it has been reduced to 60 seconds; the time between rounds has become shorter and the damage has increased from 2 health points to 3, which gradually increases the more rounds we survive. This has made most players feel distressed between stepping on the ground and having to make the decision to move, even more so when the drop zone is full of enemies.
If we attend to official game subredditthe community has expressed its concern to a minor, but game-changing change. Many players anticipate that the second round of the battle royale feels like a third round, with a lot less action time and more damage, which becomes a race. In fact, some comment with a certain jocular tone that he has been “more time fighting with the ring than I have spent fighting with real players”.
As highlighted by the media PcGamesNit is clear that the intention is good by the American team wanting to mutate the style of play and force players to expand their inventory and not wander around the map. However, reducing the start of the round from 3 minutes to just 1 has meant that many of them find themselves with a game that is little more than a running simulator with a view to reaching the new safe zone.
At this time, Respawn Entertainment has not no comment regarding this “problem” that Season 14 has brought. This is not the only noticeable change that the game has received with this new stage. far from the glade Kings Canyon map changenew accessories have now been introduced to weapons, many characters have undergone significant changes and, for example, the golden shield now does not give us the possibility of reviving without the help of an ally, a pity.
