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

Now let's talk about the other color variant of the Bootlegger skin. This one is mostly gold and black and goes by the name Gold Standard. The pinstripes on this skin are a lot more subdued and at a glance, it simply looks like Loba is wearing a gold and black jacket. If the other skin is a created character in Red Dead Online , this one might be an end-game outfit you unlock after hours of grinding and/or gathering resources. It visually brings back the images of Loba as a child, growing up in a life of wea

The lack of servers creates a vicious cycle. Publishers don't have African servers because they think there aren't enough players, but without servers, how is the player base expected to grow? The impact of this policy has had a truly detrimental effect on the African gaming community. Many games have "World" Cups or "World" Championships, and it's evident that Africa isn't part of their "World." No matter how good African players are, there's no way of getting involved in many of the sanctioned leagues without moving to another contin

Earlier the sister-skin to Attention To Detail, titled Precision Caliber was discussed, and it featured a design that was much more flashy. For Attention To Detail, it's a skin for the Wingman that focuses on looking a bit more practical, but still being flashy enough to be coveted by players. It's a reward players receive for reaching the maximum level of the Season 5 battle pass which is neat. The only bummer is that the Wingman currently isn't a top tier weapon in the ongoing meta of the g

The Triple Take is an interesting sniper rifle that seems useless until it's used by someone very skilled. Scarab's Bite is the Season 5 skin for the Triple Take and it feels like an homage to Widowmaker of Overwatch . Purple and black are the primary colors of the design, which happens to have speckles of red sprinkled throughout. You may not be using this gun much in Season 5 as it isn't a top tier weapon, but it may be neat to roleplay as Widowmaker in the odd chance it's the only gun you h

The largest black community lives in Africa and has a long history of being treated as second-class, whether it's colonialism, the slave trade, or gaining access to world-class events. The stereotype of Africa being poor, dirty, and underdeveloped is still strong up to this day with no sign of change on the horizon. Yes, some places are less developed, but in the last few decades, the continent has made massive strides in terms of technology and has seen incredible growth. Despite all the progress, most video game publishers don't have a single server on the continent, and exclude Africa from their events complet

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

You might be scratching your head wondering how on Earth the Prowler made it into the Top 10 when considering the best weapons in the game for Season 5 . It all comes down to a single attachment called the select-fire hop-up. When attached it allows players to turn the gun into an assault rifle. A fully equipped Prowler turns the unwieldy and overlooked gun into something quite formidable in battle. It shouldn't be your go-to weapon, but it can make its mark in a pinch with the right pieces in pl

Apex Legends is already in its fifth season, and in Season 5 many things have changed via Respawn 's tweaks. The tier list for both legends and weapons has fluctuated a bit due to the numerous buffs, nerfs, and changes the latest Storm Point Update implemen

Wraith is one of the 3 legends who have a skin that is gifted to players once they purchase the battle pass for Season 5. The other two are Revenant and Bloodhound, and out of the 3, she sadly has the least interesting skin. It shouldn't be too much of a bummer as Wraith has plenty of rock-solid skins, and her skin for Season 5 isn't too shabby itself. There doesn't seem to be a lot of rhyme or reason for the way it's colored and that lack of cohesion makes the thing feel messy and less interesting over

If this list was simply about ranking the names of all of the Season 5 weapon skins, you'd be hard-pressed to find one better than the Bad Mojo skin for the Spitfire. The Spitfire is a large and powerful light-machine gun that was once highly coveted but has recently fallen off due to players preferring other weapons in its weapon cl

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
