Apex Legends: The 10 Best Guns In Season 5 Ranked

Video games should be fun. But issues with random players detract from the experience. It’s time for Respawn to step in and develop a strategy for dealing with players who can’t play with basic respect and dece


Because of its central location and possibility of high-tier loot, Containment is often a very hot drop zone. Flyers locked away in cages will squawk to give away a person’s position, so try to avoid getting near them while looting. The elevated structure on the west side of the zone typically has plenty of good items, so if you drop in the zone as a team, two players can take this on to prevent too much separat


In games of Apex Legends , I’ve found myself matched with profile names that are blatantly racist (they used workarounds to pass spam filters). Once, the first thing someone said was a sexual comment. I’ve been told I was trash for losing a fight by missing a shotgun shot. Random players frequently separate from their teammates, go AFK in the middle of a fight with no explanation and can be toxic in any number of other w


The R-301 Carbine has always been a safe and reliable choice in-game and Season 5 didn't change that. It's the one assault rifle that most players feel comfortable with thanks in large part to it having rather low kick when shot. When playing the best thing to do is work on fully kitting the gun while looking for an R-99. Having both will give you the flexibility in both mid-range and close-quarters combat, and if you feel the need to add a sniper, all of the R-301's attachments will transfer over to the R


However, Fortnite isn't for everyone and a battle pass may not be the determining factor for playing the game. The challenges have gotten easier with every new season, so unlocking a tier 100 skin variant doesn't feel as prestigious as it once did. However, if players are looking for the most bang for their buck, Fortnite's battle pass is the route to


Is it worth $10? Absolutely. The most recent battle pass included 6 new exclusive skins each with its own additional unlockable styles, and most have their own pickaxes and back bling, on top of a handful of emotes, loading screens, and player icons. If Fortnite does one thing right it is its cosmetics. The battle pass offers players a plethora of items to unlock that are each unique and worth the grind and the extra challenges extend the life of the game and give players a reason to hop back in every w


Recently, I was matched with someone whose name was a play on the coronavirus. Perhaps merely evidence of a juvenile sense of humor, it hits different when 23,000 people in your city have died of the vi


The L-Star, much like the Mastiff which will be discussed later on, is a weapon that was once relegated to care packages but spawns in the overworld in Season 5. A weapon that doesn't require you to reload it is pretty powerful, you just need to make sure it doesn't overheat. You can become rather careless with ammunition when you forget about reloading, so just be aware of your energy ammo supply. The speed at which your weapon can fire can become all too important, and the L-Star is best in cl


As for quests... there aren't any extra battle pass challenges. However, it can be quite a grind to get to tier 100 of PUBG's survivor pass , and it's up to the player to decide whether the grind is worth the rewa


This is probably the most well-rounded combination on this list. All of these Legends can, in one way or another, protect a squad-mate for a short time, or at least help them recover if they've been hurt. Bangalore can create a visual cover for her team, allowing for easier escapes or giving enough cover to help p


Among all of the care package weapons, the Kraber is one of the ones that's still stuck to them and is a rare commodity. Most don't realize that this powerful sniper can down any legend in the game with a single headshot. This makes it an unstoppable weapon in the right hands, and to those who are most casual, it can be quite intimidating. The Kraber deals massive damage in general, so if you're not the type of player who excels at precise shots still take it upon yourself to get familiar with


The easiest fix would be to play only with players one trusts. However, one key issue is that my friends range from far better to me to far worse than me, which poses challenges with skill-based matchmaking. Even though my K/D is below one and I have a win rate of 5 percent, squadding up with my higher-skill friends means there will almost certainly be Apex Predators in our lo


In the past few weeks, I've twice watched someone back out of a game because I chose the character they wanted to play. Both times, it was because my game defaulted to the character because I didn't make a selection. In one instance, I even apologized after noticing the other player had wanted to be the character I had chosen, but the player backed out anyway. It's important to note that in Apex Legends Missions Legends , selection order is randomized. In both cases, my name popped up first on the selection menu, meaning I had every right to choose whichever character I wanted to play. Regardless, backing out for something so mundane is problematic because my team is forced to play the game as a squad of two up against squads of three, which makes the game much more diffic
