The Gauntlet looks strangely familiar to a skate park except it has a ring of fire and a ton of loot. It will be highly populated which means anyone coming into this area definitely needs their A-Game or it's going to be a quick match. There can be a great piece of loot in the fire ring by using the jump pads but the real attraction here is the easy access to multiple supply bins and the ability to move to the next looting locations right after. Most players will end up landing here and then going straight to the Market location right after or the Salvage area. It was designed with Octane in mind and if playing with him, take advantage of the open area and jump pads to speed up and get the drop on the oppone

Perhaps because there are so many other well-stacked areas with more loot and less open space, this place has become less popular than it once was. Still, a team that drops here uncontested can walk away with decent guns and at least a blue shield or two. However, they must be prepared to move if another team approaches them and attempts to take them on from the elevated zone barri

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

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

It seems players rarely take the time to appreciate video game developers. Twitter feeds and extraction Shooter genre game forums are frequently filled with game criticism. Even in normal circumstances, gamers fail to openly appreciate the efforts of those who work so hard. We may not know these workers by name, but they're working diligently to create brilliant stories, designs and technology that allow us to enjoy this form of immers

Within the gaming community, there are countless examples. The ones mentioned here speak to major, big-budget releases. But even when it comes to indies with small but loyal followings, development teams are hard at work keeping these games fr

Apex Legends is a very successful battle royale game by Respawn Entertainment that saw a lot of growth due to its free-to-play model as well as its ability to focus on representation and inclusion in its character roster. Over the last year plus they've done a great job at adding additional legends with unique personalities of their own. One of their most recent is man-turned-machine named Revenant that happens to be a murderous hitman for a crime syndicate. Let's now go over 10 things you didn't know about Revenant from Apex Legen

This area is great if it can be gotten quickly. Not only are there a few supply bins inside the two bunker areas but there are also multiple supply bins just on the outside of them. It also has a few small buildings linked to them with more supplies, multiple levels for combat, and has two entrances into the area making escape a bit easier. This is a highly populated area so be ready for a fight when dropping

There are a lot of question marks when it comes to Revenant because his past is so mysterious. In terms of height, he stands at 6'8", which is quite impressive, but it is unclear if he was this tall as a human as well. That type of height isn't common, but it also isn't unrealis

Another highly-populated area, the Market is a tough one as there are tons of different locations to enter from, including a roof opening where players can get the drop on others firing from unsuspecting players. There is a ton of loot here but it's definitely a riskier area than the Artillery and if dropping here, make sure your skills are up to the task. This location will usually be picked as a secondary alternative for most players if their first pick isn't to their liking for whatever reason making it high on the list for combat locations. If this is the first landing place, a great secondary location to go right after is the Hydro Dam that also has a good number of loot bo

As a non-pro player, I’ll always make mistakes. I’ll try to revive a teammate when I should be fighting, and I’ll miss shots that I know aren’t difficult for good players. But I’ve put around 1500 hours into Apex Legends , and yet I can’t recall a time I’ve ever become vocally frustrated with a teammate without obvious provocation. Those I play with will also sometimes run out ahead just to get downed or will push fights they have no chance of winning, but I trust they are doing their best and aim to support them as teammates no matter their choi
