In terms of networking features, Apex Legends also came back pretty barebones. As of right now, the game doesn't have Network Warning Icons, it does not favor the shooter limitation for players with more than 200ms ping, and it's missing many standard networking settings like an FPS limiter and a Network Graph or Overlay. Packet Splitting is also set as server to client and sends 5 packets per update, the highest of all the games listed in this test. The more times the packet is split, the higher the chance that the player sees lag or odd behavior. Now, it's worth pointing out that each of the other games in this test also suffered from their own issues, but Apex Legends had negative results in nearly every category tes

The game is certainly deserving, having left the gaming universe in awe following its release. Unfortunately, Fortnite took over and even that is now being overshadowed by Respawn and EA's launching of Apex Legends , a BR based on the Titanfall series that amazingly garnered 10 million users in its first three da
A couple of years after its last release, Respawn Entertainment surprised the game industry by simultaneously announcing and launching a free to play battle royale title called Apex Legends . While many other attempts were made and ultimately failed to capture the success of PUBG and Fortnite , Apex Legends continues to grow at a rapid pace having just crossed 50 million players in about a months time . Even though its popularity remains high and content updates continue to arrive at a consistent rate, Apex Legends does suffer from a few issues that negatively sets it apart from its closest riv
Overall, it's a head-scratching decision from PUBG , especially as the game continues to lose huge swaths of its playerbase to Fortnite 's more popular battle royale offering. Some of the cost can probably be attributed to licensing expenses, but for a title in desperate need of some good PR, this is yet another move that's just going to drive players away. After making a public promise to fix the issues in PUBG earlier this year, the developer has appeared to do anything but, and it seems like things are beginning to spiral out of control for a game that used to be one of the biggest in the wo

Saying that kids are psychopaths because of PUBG seems like a bit of a stretch, but it's true that there has been some bizarre behavior associated with the game. For example, there was a viral Facebook post that claimed a man left his pregnant wife due to PUBG addiction , and there was also a reported incident where a Chinese child was killed jumping off a building in an attempt to mimic PUBG . There are less specific incidents in India itself, or at least very few that have been publicized, but regardless, 16 people have now been arrested for playing the g
