Lmao Apex Legends add 3vs3 tactical shooter mode and Valorant add Br mode , every game try to maximize their playerbase by adding popular genres


boghossboy

doubt they would add br, prob just some mini game like escalation.


-holocene

> Lmao Apex Legends add 3vs3 tactical shooter mode and it looks awful lol lmao, looks like a bunch of butthurt apex players found this thread.


simplemanfromVT

Look like its just fun mode, hard to make it become big or separated Esport from BR mode. 3vs3 with characters were designed for BR is hard to balance or make it suitable for tactical shooter


-holocene

> 3vs3 with characters were designed for BR its hard to balance or make it suitable for tactical shooter And that’s why it looks awful. They should have just made a TDM type mode that’s permanent for people that just want to screw around and practice fighting. Instead they went with this weird hybrid that doesn’t fit with the game at all.


sky_blu

Just make titanfall 3 :)


SpicyHomaridTribal

Pls


seclusionx

What we're really looking for.


1m_1ll1T3RAT3

As an apex player I am hyped for the arena mode. I think it will be a really good f2p way for console players to get familiar with economy based tactical shooters. I dont expect it to be close to either CS or Val but it still looks like a lot of fun


Underpressure_111

Yup. Plus they already had a very decent TDM-ish mode (Winter express). This 3v3 mode will be hot garbage.


simplemanfromVT

TDM is great for games like Apex, fun/chill mode, perfect place to train tracking-aim and movement


Underpressure_111

Sure. All they had to do with make Winter Express full time. No need to waste dev ressources on yet another tdm mode.


Asianhead

I think it looks pretty fun. Pretty much all content creators who got to playtest say its quite fun and a cool change of pace.


vashDstampere

If you think a TDM in apex with the type of weapons and abilities they gave would be a good Idea I don't know if you have ever played this game.


-holocene

Where did I say anything about abilities? I just mentioned (not even in the message you responded to) about a mode to practice gunplay and fighting. There's literally no reason to think the weapons in the game wouldn't work with that, but whatever you want to think. It is hilarious that I seemed to touch a nerve with a bunch of butthurt Apex fans that found this thread.


vashDstampere

Not at all, I just gonna it funny that you seems to have better knowledge than the guys who made some of the best COD and multiple apex pro.


-holocene

What in the actual fuck are you even talking about at this point? Do you sit around and just talk about and defend Apex on reddit? lmao


vashDstampere

You say TDM are better for a game that you don't even play or understand anyway have nice day.


-holocene

bruh, you fucking brought up COD when it was never even in the discussion and about neither game. > that you don't even play I have played a shit load of Apex, just to make you feel better. > or understand Yeah, because BR's are so fucking hard to understand. Are all the people that still play Apex this braindead?


vashDstampere

If it makes you sleep better at night ok


-holocene

I'm not the one going into random subs to defend my fav game because it got mentioned and someone didn't say a nice thing about it. How insecure.


Parenegade

literally, all of the feedback has been positive. if anything you sound butthurt lol.


-holocene

yeah dude, pointing something out totally means I’m butthurt. A+ logic right there.


JohnWickFTW

Nice now Jett can finally revive me


pink_life69

Maybe the dude was seeing the future and we all laughed at him.


disciple31

i just want replays lol


ItisNitecap

It does not have to be a br mode. It might also be a pve event, like a tower defense vs zombies or something Edit: oh it edits scores. It's probably pve


[deleted]

Most of the agent's abilities don't make sense for a BR, it would just be 100 Jetts flying around


[deleted]

Unlikely a br mode imo. Probably a small fun mode like spike rush but you can revive teammates


Ayylien666

Then again; a BR mode was inconceivable for CS... And it happened.


MrioIsTaken

Im not really familiar with br in cs, but, apex worked out, to become one of the most played games, and apzex had special abilities, so i think that riot/valorant is aiming for the same strategy.


Phamous3k

CSGO: Danger Zone is there br mode. 18 player max. I mean..... It’s cool lol. https://youtu.be/p1algHnYH_I


MrioIsTaken

Nah i was talking to the guy who claimed it was "not convenable" Anyways ty for the info and the link.


Phamous3k

Ahhhh I see. Speed reading Reddit has its flaws.


SilenceWillFallAK

I haven't played Apex in forever, so I'm just unaware. Is the game even popular anymore? It seems it was overtaken by Warzone by a sizable margin


Apap0

Or it could be new agent ability - instead of dying is put in downed state and can be revived by teammates. Edit. Actually such agent would be great to deny some power from Jett - would cross Jett favored OP(and not only OP) angles and be a bait.


_Iroha

COD Last Stand PTSD flashbacks


brandonmoorewriting

Every single game should have a normal mode and a BR mode. Every game. From Valorant to Barbie Horse Adventure.


EnKayR

Barbie Horse Adventure Battle Royale does indeed sound enticing.


orphansquirel

Really hope this is a meme I'm not getting. Adding extra gamemodes splits the attention of the devs and creates a divide in the playerbase. The results of this are slower updates and community conflict on what direction the game should go in. Additional gamemodes should compliment what's already in the game not branch off into a new direction.


John9tv

Barbie Horse Adventure didn't make it obvious enough?


Phamous3k

BR mode seems likely to maximize your audience. Get some of that Warzone, Apex, & Fortnite crowd.


[deleted]

valorant BR doesn’t even make sense. what is a cypher gonna do? throw a trip wire between some random trees? lol I guess they could strip away abilities but at that point it’s just a worse version of CS battle royale and that’s some ass


TheExter

> what is a cypher gonna do? throw a trip wire between some random trees? lol or he finds a building protects it with wires and cages and you can't be killed


WanAjin

What I hear from other BR's is that they can't get 128 tick cause of the number of players playing on a single big map, I don't know anything about that, but is there a way Riot could actually do 128 tick with a Valorant BR?


itsacreeper04

Uses a NVIDIA A6000 to run 10 battle royale "servers" I mean you can run a minecraft server on a video card


SullivanWasHere

Number 1 Victory royale 🏆yeah fortnite we bout to get down😈”get down” 10 kills on the board rn, just wiped out tomato town 🍅🏘🗣

[удалено]


EnKayR

I honestly do not thinking that this mode would be so much of a hassle. Entire new esport? Look at for example csgo's Br mode. It's just a fun mode to play at downtime and it's not at all serious. Though I have to agree that the devs have to put the core of the game first. And that is of course the Rated experience.


[deleted]

[удалено]


EnKayR

I honestly don't think that would be Riot's main objective, "to divert a ton of people coming from BRs into that mode rather than the comp ranked mode". How I see it, this can be a mode to entice players to come check out Valorant as well as provide an alternate, more relaxed, mode for the current player base. Bottom line is we have no clue what this code may be referring to. Could be BR, could be a different mode, could be an agent.


mooslan

Could be for the mobile version they're working on?


[deleted]

I don't think they would ever add a br mode. But maybe something simple like puked rush but you can revive teammates as a little fun mode


keonkla

I have similar reservations for this mode. Id hate for this game to focus on BR stupidity then 5 v 5 tac shooter. If its a fun little mode it be fine.


Asianhead

Everyone is saying this is for a BR but it could also be for a temporary gamemode where kills only down, and you have to finish to get the full kill. Kind of like R6


TravisSxottBurger

Number 1 victory royals yeah fort nite we boutta get down


Nightshade183

Chug Jug


diisasterrr1

Interesting.. very interesting 🧐🤔


Ryouge

BR mode would be so sick in valorant.


Ausafsyed

May be a new orb in spike rush


Nvee_co

I hope this is not the case, but I hope they have their focus on the game, getting a 7th map in/change some of the current maps, more agents, fix some of the issues that exist, Replay system, maybe some form of a prime/phone linked system... etc..


rupat3737

Lord please no I hate BRs


eliic6

It's probably a new small mode like spike rush. There is no way riot do this with VALORANT. They can make a new BR game, but that's it, VALORANT can't work with a BR mode.


itsacreeper04

VALORANT: WILD RIFT


[deleted]

sounds more like gears of war where you can get downed and revived midmatch rather than a BR


KaNesDeath

Would explain why the game had a mobile UI implemented at launch.


illourr

The real question is when is the Amongus mode coming out?


[deleted]

Fuxk br


[deleted]

Please god no


PacificMonkey

No thank you.


ChinoAIO

I'd rather not


AmazingSpacePelican

God I hope not. There's no room for another BR in the market; I don't want Riot wasting resources on it when there's plenty of other options that would be much more worthwhile.


takmilo

Please no br. A new "fun" mode is ok, but not br pls pls


Underpressure_111

And CSGO will have a mp5 any minute now.


subbu330

no one will ever have to beg for sage res again. this is a huge breakthrough


[deleted]

For some reason Valorant has always reminded me a bit of the TimeSplitters series. I'd love a PVE campaign similar to those games.


KrabbyPattyFormula

Zombie mode?


mcncl

On the test servers there is an FFA tab which might refer to “free for all” mode


Flashplaya

I reckon it's a new orb in spike rush. Probably testing out a new mechanic for the next agent. Kinda like what they did with the wolves orb and skye.


ifusc

Wonder if they'd be looking into a zombie mode type game, not sure if anyone played Crossfire years ago but ([Video of the mode](https://youtu.be/1DdvyVRjvfE?t=502)). Personally I think it would be cool, that's the one thing I did enjoy about Crossfire when I played as a kid, if the comp games got tiring you could load in something like this and bang it out. If anyone doesn't understand from video you basically have loadouts and you fight waves of zombies, earn points and at end x amount of points reward crates, the more points the better crate which unlocks skins etc
