A new zone in Season 5, Salvage replaces the combined area of Skulltown and Thunderdome. It’s a very active zone with a lot of loot, and there are only a few ways to escape should a player land here and find themselves facing numerous other squads. Players also have to be careful of the water, because it’s very easy to fall off the map while fighting h

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

Though not as hot as it once was, The Cage will frequently set players up for a fight or two. There’s usually a decent amount of loot, though people in the higher part should be aware of snipers in the areas surrounding the struct

The Slum Lanes can be a bit of a maze to newer players but the good thing about this area is that it can be easy to get lost when meeting up with other players. Unless someone is using Bloodhound or Crypto, this area is easy to get the jump on others and escape if needed. The area has a lot of loot chests here as well but they are spread out and most of the loot is just lying on the floor in each building. Not a lot of players come to this location and is a good place to go if avoidance of the pack is the strat

A contrarian might suggest these companies are pushing out updates amid a pandemic strictly for the profits. That person might suggest developers are working because they’re afraid to lose their jobs in an uncertain climate. But if those concerns were the only thing driving these development teams, then what would stop the company executives from simply turning to bolder emphasis on microtransactions? Whether you love or hate these in-game monetization options, it's indisputable that microtransactions are sure-fire ways to get people to continue to spend money on ga

If you want to get the most out of the speed demon then you need to keep an eye out for its extended magazine attachment as well as the lightweight optic item. It can win entire fights at close range simply due to its ability to rip through armor at remarkable speeds that can't be matched by most other guns in the g

The Devotion has seemingly become the best light machine gun in the game overnight. All light machine guns suffer from the issue of extended reload times, but the Devotion makes up for that in several areas. For being such a large weapon it someone remains pretty accurate and has little recoil feedback when firing. Add this to the large numbers it packs in the damage department and there's no mystery why it has ascended to be one of the best weapons in the entire g

By many accounts, these teams are working harder than ever. Workers in the gaming industry had to rapidly adapt to the challenges of remote work. Many of these studio employees have children, which means they had to rearrange their own lives to care for their children and support them through remote learning. Though many workers may relish being able to work in their pajama pants, they're facing innate challenges without the interpersonal aspects of working together at a stu

Throughout the entertainment medium, you'll often find that artists and animators love to reference their favorite influences and inspirations via direct examples, or even sometimes as hidden easter eggs. Revenant happens to have a rarely occurring animation when summoning his Ultimate ability called Death Totem. He will do a series of hand signs that are directly from the famous manga and anime series Naruto . This makes perfect sense considering the Naruto franchise focuses on ninjas, which were a direct inspiration for Revenant's charac

Datamining is terrible if you're a developer, but if you're a fan it can provide plenty of useful facts that would have never hit the public eye. For instance, thanks to data mining it was discovered that Revenant was initially going to be named Blackout. This is typical in game development as characters often get several passes when being named. It also revealed that his ultimate ability at one point would create a doorway in a wall. The implementation of it was likely riddled with bugs and glitc

It’s easy to forget that the people making and supporting your favorite summer games are going through abrupt changes in their own lives, yet they continue to deliver new content to keep players enga

Loba's Ultimate may not be as strong as some other Apex Legends 2024 like Bangalore or Revenant, but it is an easy way to collect loot without running around an entire area. An excellent way to use this ability is to enter a high loot area and drop it down to find all the best loot very quickly. This even has a great use later in the match if players find themselves pinned down and running low on ammo or medical kits. This will allow the team to quickly stock up on any resources that could be found in the area without having to leave co
