Oh God. I'm going to have to play this, aren't I? :lol:

I'm actually downloading it on our PS4 for my kids to play this weekend (they don't get video games during the week). It does look interesting, but I'm not a big fan of BR games. We'll see...and I'll probably get it for the PC. Crossplay is coming at some point.

Like I keep telling people, the game is free, why not give it a shot? Everyone I've heard from loves it, aside from nocera. You might not like it if you don't like BR games but there is a cool feature that even if you get knocked down, then put out, your teammate can still grab your icon and revive you.

That feature is another thing I don't like about it. If you get downed and finished off, you should be dead. One of the great joys of PUBG is when a squad kills the rest of your team so you hunt them down and take out as many as you can before dying, just so you can ruin their game.

I hate being thirsted. Dudes will be in the middle of a fight they know they can't win and kill you when you're down. Miss me with that.

I thirst absolutely everybody unless it's too dangerous or I think I can use them as bait. The goal is to be the last man standing. I can't be the last man standing if your teammate revives you.

I always try to use them as bait. Might be because I am used to Fortnite and when a person gets downed it immediately turns to "build a box and get me!!!!!!!". Only time I thirst is if I need ammo, or, in the case of Fortnite, building materials.

So far, Apex Legends is more fun than Fortnite for me.

Having never played Fortnite, and only played PubG on mobile, my just just completed first attempt at Apex Legends was ugly. Absolutely no idea what I'm doing...and a PS4 controller will take some getting used to.

I know BR games are all the rage right now, but Battlefield V is the most fun I have had with a FPS since...BFBC2. I have had an absolute blast playing that game with my buddies.

:thumb: same. Well, I don't have buddies who still play it, but I do play with my son...when he isn't playing Apex or Fortnite. 🤣

Same type, but Apex is full tilt the whole time.

Yeah...there's something annoying about it. I tried to play it and really wanted to like it, but the building aspect of it did not appeal to me.

The most annoying thing about Fortnite is now anytime you go to a sporting event and they show kids on the Jumbotron during a break in the action, the little **** floss. Every. Single. One.

I like the idea of apex. Need to get used to everything. The one thing I like about fortnite is that there are no experience points that provide advantages over people who have never played before. Doesn’t seem to be the case for apex.

Apex doesn't have any more advantage to understanding a character's abilities than Fortnite does with building. The more you play and practice the better you will be. Neither game is play to win because all unlockable items are simply cosmetic.

It isn't cross platform yet. Eventually it will be.

The robot with the grappling hook is my favorite. Absolutely can change a game quickly.
