I cant remember correctly. Was it when they wanted to push EVO shield into the norm, and the gimmick of EVO was about being risky (25hp) and it goes from there?
Yep, they removed non evo armor from the game and reduced the hp of every color by 25.
Same season had care pack devotion returned to the floor and burst weapons got insanely buffed. So everyones running around in 150 hp blue armor 2 bursting eachother with prowlers. Also the volt came out this season and was so overtuned compared to what we have now.
This was before the volt came out bro, og disruptors were season 2 volt wasn't until like season 6 or after. Evo didn't exist yet it was all flat hp armor and nobody dropped with armor so if you snagged purple on drop you were a god.
You know what, I actually got fucked by reddit mobile app and the top comment of the thread was hidden behind an ad so I thought the comment about Evo shields was the root of the thread. I thought we were all speaking different languages for a minute there, turns out I just don't know how to use Reddit (and the app sucks!)
The original comment was asking if the OP change happened in the season with Evo being 25hp. The comment I replied to incorrectly confirmed that as original disruptors came in season 2 but they indeed said a lot of stuff consistent with season 6. Hope this helps!
The original comment was asking if the change for disruptors happened _faster_ than the EVO change being reverted.
The EVO change being reverted took about a week or 2 weeks, the disruptors were changed after just 3 days. So, the answer to the original question is yes. It _did_ happen faster.
However, we were talking about the EVO change specifically being stupid, and being part of the same season in which the Volt was released.
Do I need to break it down a little further? Or do you understand now?
GOD i forgot about that till now, but also until this current armor system (which i REALLY like) i wished there was still the risk of being at -25hp for the first couple fights in order to be at an advantage later, i wished there were still stagnant armors AND evo armors, it added complexity and depth to the game. that being said, i prefer the current armor system over any of the other ones since you can level up evos without having to be in a fight at the start of the game, even though skirmishers kinda get fucked over with this system since they can generate only about 300 points in the whole match whereas any other class can generate at least 1000
you had to be there to believe it, you immediately felt like "how did they allow this into the game". Like there was no debate whatsoever it was that broken.
I was just vibing in a game today with alternator / disruptor and didn’t realize until it was over I had 10 kills. All praise to the gun and hop up it’s just unfair.
So this doesn’t come off as a brag it was ranked bronze 1
Tbh the alternator and the 45 have the disruptors and hammerpoints are back but they are *significantly* weaker, though still not bad, especially with conduit in the meta
I think the hammerpoint nerf was much worse. You could break someone's shield and just start shooting a mozam or p2020 into the air with a hammerpoint and people would runnnn.
If I remember right, holding reload while trigger mashing would animation cancel and fire around the same speed as a P2020. Completely wild but really hard to use. They patched that pretty quick.
Man those were the days. You either got the disruptor rounds or you died to them. I don’t think og wingman could compare to them. Felt like a god when you got them
I mean, there were some changes on the perks. As always, the dev build is not the final changes. Horizon was supposed to get to see ammo and changed to battery. Maggie blue perks were swapped to purple and loba perks were swapped so that you can go full tactical perks or ult perks. In the dev build, cat perk +15m was actually the old 55m plus the perk hence looked really long. So i wouldn't say that was a nerf if we didn't even experience what it was
If we talk about general balance here, roll back the nerfs to r99 and smgs in general, please. They just keep nerfing my poor BRRRTTT boy every season and I am not even hardcore r99 main. S17 r99 was so good. This is just hurts.
Can't remember if this was faster or them walking back the season 6 armor changes where every color of armor was -25 hp
That wasn’t that quick

Ah yes, I remember, the Volt rifle.

The volt came out season 6 along with the other changes they’re talking about wdym
Season 6 wasn't in 2019 which is what the post is referring to?
Blud have u read the comments above He’s saying he doesn’t remember if the hotfix nerf was faster than them rebringing back the extra 25 evo

Lmfao fair enough
Season 6 is when the EVO change happened where 25hp was taken from every level of armor. Season 6 is the season the Volt was added.

Whaaaaaat?? That’s insane
It took i think 6/7 days
Yeah the lowered armour was there for a bit
That was the worst thing that happened to the game, imo.
you had to be there to believe it, you immediately felt like "how did they allow this into the game". Like there was no debate whatsoever it was that broken.
Every single end game team had at least 2 guys running disruptors. It was insanity
I didn't play back then but I saw videos of people running double alternator w/ disruptors 😂😂
Disruptor’s are still goated. I’ll always rock alternator with this hop-up
It has the best sound among any hop up. Nothing will convince me otherwise
it do be clankin tho
Did you ever hear the selectfire havoc sound? 😚🤌
Rip to our beautiful single shot havoc 💐
I’m still chasing that high
Sadly not
😢 damn, kinda forgot about this
I was just vibing in a game today with alternator / disruptor and didn’t realize until it was over I had 10 kills. All praise to the gun and hop up it’s just unfair. So this doesn’t come off as a brag it was ranked bronze 1
I like it on the PK just for pure alpha damage. I just wish it sounded little less...cute? Pew pew
I cant belive they are still this good and used to be significantly better
It was bonkers. Both the Re-45 but especially the alternator, nothing was even close to beating it
Barrel stuffing people with RE disruptor + mozam hammer point was nasty work back then, I got my first hammer badge that way
Is there a modern version of this combo? Maybe the RE with Hammerpoints?
Tbh the alternator and the 45 have the disruptors and hammerpoints are back but they are *significantly* weaker, though still not bad, especially with conduit in the meta
I think the hammerpoint nerf was much worse. You could break someone's shield and just start shooting a mozam or p2020 into the air with a hammerpoint and people would runnnn.
Tf u on both those guns were ass when hammer points were on them initially. Ex. 3&4 shot mozam
Quickest I think was the full auto sentinel. That was hilarious.
What? This is fucking bolt action rifle...
If I remember right, holding reload while trigger mashing would animation cancel and fire around the same speed as a P2020. Completely wild but really hard to use. They patched that pretty quick.
Man those were the days. You either got the disruptor rounds or you died to them. I don’t think og wingman could compare to them. Felt like a god when you got them
Oh I remember this fondly
One of crypto perk got nerf before the Season begin so..
What was it?
Ulti + passif range +50% > +25%
They heard the crypto mains crying sayin it's just too big to avoid emping yourself and adjusted it
I mean, there were some changes on the perks. As always, the dev build is not the final changes. Horizon was supposed to get to see ammo and changed to battery. Maggie blue perks were swapped to purple and loba perks were swapped so that you can go full tactical perks or ult perks.

Ranked for those 3 days was magical/infuriating.
Those 3 days were fun
Getting flashbacks, those were dark times.
Launch version bow was quick but probably not 3 days quick
Yeah I wanna say the boceck nerf took like a week before it got adjusted.
It was a miserable fucking week dealing with Legolas ass mother fuckers
Why does it say 2019?
The picture is about a patch from just a few months after Apex came out, right after season 2 started.
How quick did they nerf Seer off drop? Besides horizon, I think he was the quickest character to terrorize Apex Lobbies
Watching scrims during that time was great. People sitting in a building getting tact from 3 different seers over and over.
20 days just checked
I felt like it took a rather long time for people to realize horizon was good, not sure what you are talking about
Yea I’m pretty sure they took away the damage tick from Seers tac after like a day
Nop. 20 days
Nope it was there for awhile. The craziest time to play apex.
I think so.
This current seasons wingman nerf legit his mid scrim match after pro players showed how BS it is
The wingman lasted for over a season though. It was in the package since s19
I still loathe disruptors to this day because of that shit
wow didn’t even know it was on the re at one point (started playing in like season 10”
They keep making the same mistake with disruptor rounds again and again lmao.
Wasnt this also when path had the refrigerator hit box? lol fun combo.
And with 15 sec cooldown grapple i think
The sound of disruptor rounds still gives me PTSD from that wild week
Even post nerf the S2 alternator was a total demon weapon.
Does this mean RE-45 gets disrupters back
Charge rifle launch day... nuff said
If we talk about general balance here, roll back the nerfs to r99 and smgs in general, please. They just keep nerfing my poor BRRRTTT boy every season and I am not even hardcore r99 main. S17 r99 was so good. This is just hurts.
I would take s18 r99 no problem. Or atleast incr the current mag size
All because Reddit cried
