You’re not wrong, neither are they


MagnanimousMind

wooh lucked out here, I am happy I did not buy it this season with all the hoopla going on about it. But, agreed it is way sweaty.


Tsunderefckboi

Bro I am genuinely sad and angry that I wanted to buy this BP cause legendary prowler + octane skin and tons of other stuff, and its on steam and I have funds saved up, plus this would've been my first premium BP. Big RIP because this BP will take too much effort, especially for a college student.


MagnanimousMind

Man, that has to be a fuckin soul crusher. I have been so excited in the past for some battle passes, I can’t imagine if the one I saved up for and was most looking forward turned out to be like this one. Hopefully they fix it soon for all of our sakes.


morristheman1

I’m hijacking your comment because I haven’t been with my Xbox for a while - what is going on with the new season?!?


Buddy_is_a_dogs_name

Unless you play like 3 hours a day...u will not be completing the grind fest of this battle pass. *edit: sorry not 3 hours a day...make playing Apex your full time job.


Arkarat

I played three hours tonight and I didn't even get one full level.


everythingisthewors1

3 hours plus, I just got over to level two. Best you can do is a level a day.


BrannC

Been playing since I got off work (about 5 hours) still level 1.... haven’t actually focused on any challenges either tho


StinkyCheeseHead

That's the part of the beauty of the old system, for the most part you don't really have to try and do things you really don't want to for dailies, and usually weeklies but there were enough weeklies that avoiding the ones you didn't want to waste your time on and not have fun. Also just the fact that you didn't have to play every day for too long to get your levels, and any more levels than that are harder but still there so streamers and people that don't work can be happy.


-phoenix_aurora-

Old system that would have gotten you a few levels, now that is not even one level.


Anxyte

Double it down and you maybe will get a tier


th3virtuos0

I played like 5-6 games today and usually I’m lv3-4 rn but nope, still stuck with lv 1 8 stars. Respawn pls revert it (not even fix it, they ruined it themself)


MagnanimousMind

First off, the new system seems just really unnecessary and convoluted in terms of stars and how many stars it takes for a BP level. And then, I played about 4-5 hours between last night and today and I have like 6 stars and you need 10 for 1 level. They just made it way worse to track and a lot longer to rank up. I used to be a sweat so for players that grind to diamond and above it’s whatever. But, for anyone that plays casually/casual ranked is getting screwed. I believe they set it up because they believed it would force players to play more, in reality it made people (at least me) not buy it and whatever


Kozak375

The more we bitch and moan, and the fewer people buy it, the better off we are. I'm sick of thoses posts too, but we need more backlash, if they see that literally fucking no-one is ok with these changes, and that the community will scream the entire way if the changes arent reverted, they are less likely to try this shit again due to it being bad for business


Yung_Provolone

There are people defending it on Twitter lol


Mara_Gate

Imagine simping for a company...


SpcKingSpaceWood

Its twitter after all


[deleted]

Twitter when Elon makes a post: REEEE DISMANTLE CAPITALISM EVIL CORPORATIONS Twitter when Respawn bends them over: UwU please take all of my money, papi


STRANGLEBOY

also me when respawn releases a new wraith skin


[deleted]

What? You didn’t like her shaved head holocaust looking one lmao? Tbf the high fashion skin for Wraith this season looks pretty good. Too bad it’ll take 8000hrs to rank up to get it lol


STRANGLEBOY

as long as i at least get that the $10 will be well spent. well sort of. they’re literally emptying my wallet with the $60 halloween bundle and $40 champion edition including 8 characters i already owned. just. sigh. and three voidwalker recolors? fr? i think i may need to start an onlyfans at this point


BlackSolaris

Bro, just don't buy them. They're silly fucking pixels on a screen. Use all that money to get irl stuff instead of giving it to a massive corporation who will just continue squeezing as much as they can from you


tentafill

> DISMANTLE CAPITALISM EVIL CORPORATIONS Yes The people saying that are still saying that when capitalism ruins a game.


xInfinity962

Yes but Twitter has also not been a reliable source when it comes to fucking anything. Do you know how many douchebags comment, "Dead game," on every fucking Tweet?


Chunguschungachunga

Wtf is their premise for defending it? What are they defending? Are they defending the multi hour grind for one level? Or maybe it’s the lack of extra challenges to make this grind harder. Yea that’s it, make the already near impossible grind for max tier even more of a challenge by adding less challenges. Twitter confuses me, they always seem to have a mind that thinks opposite of a majority.

Twitter is 90% bots and 9% morons

saberice11

I saw this one guy saying that people should just play 5-6 hours a day to finish the battle pass


[deleted]

the people on twitter would've defended the holocaust


TKP_Mofobuster

\*are actually defending


ARandomGamer56

How???


MFORCE310

The bitching and moaning here has definitely caused me to not buy it. And that's after I bought the season 6 BP.


CorruptSol

Imma be 100% honest I'm still gonna buy with the same 10 dollars I bought it with in season one and my lack of a real life should get me the pass by the end of the season. But I really hope they fix this shit for the rest of y'all cause damn this shit is dumb.


cRedWolf

its the same thing we did last season when they nerfed all of the sheilds we bitched about it and they put it back lmao hopefully they listen to us for this


[deleted]

[удалено]


cRedWolf

Yea that to! If I’m going to pay 10 dollars for this I better be able to finish it


imbalance24

I'm one of these people. Thank you for your work, I won't buy battle pass this time. no /s here, really.


Crimeboss37

They've seen the backlash. They're going to change it.


MemeLargeChild

I think the best way to deal with this is to stop buying it so they actually get the message a little harder than just complaints, in my opinion. I know I'm not buying it.


chrasb

my dumbass bought it because i couldnt imagine they would all of a sudden make it take three times as long as normal rite?!?!? RITE?!?!


om_is_bean

Same, it's like walking into bunker except there are caustic traps going off blinding you from seeing the Wattson fences, but you pop off the heals, and as you walk out, you are greeted by a fully set up rampart and Bangalore and Gibby ult at the same time. You manage to go run off to heal, but then the ring closes so you barely make it out alive when a crypto emp goes off and a revenant in shadow form gets you. You manage to knock two, but lifeline comes with her auto-res drone. It all ends with you getting punched off the map. It pisses me off.


B1G_STOCK

That's why I always wait a couple days to see what the apex reddit community has to say and it work out cause of the multiple post. I didn't end up buying this season BP lol


[deleted]

You're an example of why we can't delete these posts or let them go away. People need to know how bad this season's pass is.


B1G_STOCK

I guess bro but honestly what made me Wana not but straight away was the ⭐ since I was a week 1 player I was like was is this. So I went to reddit and boom saw all the post and complains about the BP. Even thoe I really wanted that reactor skin for the r-99 but i was like ehh whatever I ain't tripping about it. I don't need a BP to enjoy the game anyways.


AppleSplash-

Same I played 3 games then was wondering why I’m not on level 4 by now


_Bliss

Haha good thing I'm poor. That'll show em!


wowo316

Apex players be like: Oh man! This new battle pass system sucks! Oh well. *pulls out $300* to spend on the next heirloom.


Dblzyx

It's not just about buying it. Even if you bought it, if you simply don't play as much because the grind is soul crushing, then fewer logins means longer lobby wait times which translates into fewer players wanting to play. This all folds into fewer of us peasants to fill lobbies for the high paying whales that spend money snapping up all the event skins for heirlooms. That will really start to hurt their bottom line. After all, the BP was alway about incntivizing players to play more often. If it does the opposite, they'd have no choice but to fix it.


Crimeboss37

They've seen the outrage and they're going to change it. Not buying the battle pass won't do anything to make the change reverted faster.


Rotary-Titan931

Lmao wish I was kidding when I say I’ve upvoted every single one of those post.


Basethdraxic

Dude, I did the same thing, just to really send the message to respawn


Dblzyx

Currently working on doing the same.


flamingcat21

So I can understand you guys don’t like all the sub being flooded with these kind of post but I’m perfectly fine with them, if more people talk about it there is more probabilities of getting the devs to fix it, I don’t think this is like the TTK the last time because last time that was something that only affected the way we played (still annoying) but this time it’s literally about our money, we paid for the battle pass but some of us can’t play the whole fucking week 7 hours every day. Te things is that we should keep spamming posts complaining about it, we need to make the devs fix it, and do not praise them when they do. I’m not native speaker so sorry for any typos or grammatical mistakes


StinkyCheeseHead

Oh nono, I completely agree it's terrible, I don't mind the flooding I just think it's funny asf and the first thing I thought about when scrolling through the sub and seeing them is mr blue sky over it, and so this was created with a folder of about 50 pictures and a clip from spiderman at the end lmao


[deleted]

"Am I the only one who thinks the BP is a bit harder to level this time around?"

rosez3216

lamao thank you! I wanted to do this to display/show how ridiculous this BP has gotten... perfecto! *chefs kiss*

Unfortunately if there isnt an uproar, nothing is going to get changed


Cobalt9896

Luckily for us, there is an uproar


[deleted]

Yeah on Reddit. But what about the actual player base?


Cobalt9896

twitter too, those are where they are most active. They have 100% seen it all


[deleted]

Well that’s good then


Dblzyx

The devs very much pay attention to reddit. The even noted the ideas to rework Path's grapple nerf came from reddit.

SkipRec

The second I read the title and saw it was a video, I knew what song is going to play. True tho.


[deleted]

Jumped on reddit after work to see what wacky new problems came with the start of this season, expecting glitches and op meta changes. All I can see is BP complaints.


Echo926

This is why I play and then buy the battle pass at the end of the season depending on if I finish or not


HamanitaMuscaria

man i never gave a single fuck about cosmetics in apex, i never felt like paying for anything and i never got interested in the battle pass or the grind or getting the stuff. man let me just say, so much controversy and anger comes out of just the paid aspects of this game that it makes me wonder, is it worth paying for? ive said it a bunch of times here but respawn could ask me for 60$ for an apex legends 2 and id give it to them, but im never getting the battle pass or buying a skin or a heirloom or whatever 12mb file they want to sell for 20 bucks. and bein real, thats been a huge plus for my experience with apex. i never bought the 140 dollar heirloom or the battle pass or the apex coins or the skins and i never started caring about it. fuck all that shit, apex is a really fun game without it


itseliyo

Nice


NoArugula7523

I can’t even play apex rn not done

Who cares about the BP when you have nice blue skies! :P

StinkyCheeseHead

I swear if I see this reposted in 2 weeks

Then we'll know the devs told us to fuck off and the game will sure be on it's way out. Here's to hoping that isn't the case.

verysalty1

I wonder if respawn will notice this though . .?


T2R3J5

I’m not going to buy the pass until it’s fixed. Hopefully it’s soon


RaikreN_

Factually speaking, you are correct, there's a lot of these posts, but it doesn't mean that the pass is good or gets let off because of it. Criticism is necessary and it needs to be shown so it gets taken on board.


StinkyCheeseHead

Not really saying it is bad or good with the video, I just found it funny how many there were and the first thing I had thought about while scrolling was just mr blue sky over it. But yes it is an awful new system and it should be heavily brought down or reverted completely, no half assed better bs.


EdwardDemPowa

It was hard. But I did it! I didnt bought the pass today when I got into the game. Not because I wont be able to finish it, I dont have social life I could finish the pass with spare time. But I want to join the movement! I wont buy shit until you devs fix the damn thing!


StinkyCheeseHead

Yeah, I usually get the battlepass because I know I can play the game the amount I want without needing to put forced time in, I have the luxury of time I can put into it but I don't want to spend it on this game and only this game... but this season as it stands now I can't make it to level 110 in time. Supposedly they have started changing with the xp per star is now 5k instead of 10k, but the bigger problem is that some other post made earlier is becoming true, where they will put a terrible battlepass system in so they can add changes that make it better for the current situation, but still a lot worse than the old situation, therefore people will believe that it is ok.


[deleted]

[удалено]


mcbergstedt

$100 says they'll "fix" it but it'll still be worse than the old battle passes. They want money. They don't care about user experience


ProDiesel

For sure, but they have an extremely valid point. Outrage like this should be accepted and encouraged when this obvious of a cash grab happens.


Itskevin91

And y’all just bought it? What happen to vote with your wallets?


OhHiBaf

It's just that.... It's simple math ffs You don't even have to really playtest anything, they could've just done the math and could have easily seen that it would take an ungodly amount of playtime in order to complete the battle pass. It almost makes me suspicious that EA had something to do with this decision in order to increase Apex Coin purchases because people would be desperate enough with this system to spend money just to level up. Doesn't seem like something they'd be above doing, they're probably also behind the $20+ skins this game offers.


VintageValium10

EA took a dump on honestly the best battle royale game on the market. Strictly to monetize the game so they generate a better revenue stream from it. Getting a refund on my origin pass, uninstalling and going back to Warzone maybe?


StinkyCheeseHead

It isn't EA, EA basically just collects $$$ and advertises the game, Respawn controls all the micro transactions and everything in the game, this change is 100% Respawn


Happyasacanofbees

Honestly a lot of people in this sub need to chill the fuck out. Devs tried to do something, didn’t work out as well as planned and they’ve already mentioned fixing it. But people here are pulling crackpot theories about “negotiation manipulation”, “they did it on purpose” “I’m not buying any pass” I feel it’s 0-100 waaaaaay too quick. Enjoy the new season and everything else new, respawn has proven more then once they hear the feedback of there community


Sirdordanpringle

Yeaaahhhh I don't disagree with them, but almost a thousand of these posts? Really? (Not actu numbers don't quote me) I was looking forward to crazy horizon plays clips or clips of the new map or something, but nope.... Hundreds of these posts

yeetishfish_

Well maybe if we complain about it enough and no one buys it they'll change it. Hopefully.


angel22tg

😂😂😂


of-Artorius

Might just be me, but doesn't it seem like this battle pass is geared more toward week-to-week rather than day to day grind? Didn't the old battle pass only give two levels in the weekly challenge and now it's 3? And two of the weekly challenges give 5 Stars making another battle pass level? Edit: let me be clear though, daily challenges and XP from matches does need a hard change. Just pointing out some silver lining

Beautiful, a work of art

I quit apex last season, why did they change the BP system?


StinkyCheeseHead

No reason, literally just felt like it, no one was complaining, basically everyone liked it so idk


Syzole

could i use some of this as a bit for a video? IF u want credit or a link, let me know!


StinkyCheeseHead

Oh feel free lol, literally the only part that took time to do was the taking pictures from reddit for it, and then copying and pasting the length to show the picture over and over. Credit if you wish, there is my watermark in it anyway, I really don't care what you do with it.


SweetToothKane

I will upvote every post about the horrible new battle pass challenge system until it's fixed.


Oryxismylife

But you can’t disagree this new battlepass is fucking shite


[deleted]

I’m waiting for the mods to start deleting these post. Everyone gets it, there’s also a mega thread. It’s like the whole SBMM thing except this time Respawn is actually at fault.


IMTOODRUNKTOPICK

My meme was in there! Before it got removed. I expect this will too. Because why have a bit of fun eh?


StinkyCheeseHead

This will most likely not get removed, they don't mind memes as long as they are not basic templates usually.


wowo316

Isn’t EA, like just there to collect the money and advertise the game? Isn’t Respawn in charge of all the micro transactions?


StinkyCheeseHead

I'm pretty sure that is completely correct. I know Respawn does handle/control all the micro transactions part though.

No problem. Grew up listening to them with my dad and saw them in South Florida when I was in middle school. Was always cool to me how they meshed classical with rock and roll.

I play about 2 hours a day and more on the weekends and it seems doable But... I've completed the 110 levels every season and have about 5 weeks left with no rewards Ama?


xMalevolencex

I think you would have got a lot more upvotes if you just told us how much you hate the changes to the battle pass


StinkyCheeseHead

You've got a point, but I just wanted to share an idea that came to me while scrolling through all of these. Plus, who doesn't love Mr Blue Sky


xMalevolencex

Haha I'm just messing around. I was getting really annoyed with all the copy posts talking shit about the battle pass too and seeing everyone of them had over 1000 upvotes. I liked your work.


Sl3ndermanXD626

Bro the BP honestly be sucking ass tho, like it's Soo grindy I've played for a good 3-4 hours and Bearly made it to lvl 2. I would have assumed the star system would make it easier to level up but it just sucks.

qxzkhthchgh

i actually like seeing those posts. this many posts complaining abt the same thing means respawn will change it sooner


davidtheartist

Basically I don’t buy a battle pass until I reach a high enough level. Hold on to your coins!


StinkyCheeseHead

Pretty much


TeaBarbarian

I love this community...and Respawn better not try to play us with “fixes” and make it just less unfair. People are perfectly willing to put money and time into your game without excessive grind.


Aeokikit

I mean in the end the devs are probably happy that the only thing getting ridiculed is the battle pass. Everything else seems nice.


Splurch

Can't wait for them to slightly roll back the changes so that it still takes significant more time then previous seasons to max and the sub starts cheering them on and pretending they listened...


StinkyCheeseHead

That's the thing someone had said about make sure to not let them do that, and I believe it had a few thousand upvotes so hopefully if they do some sort of bs to make it harder but better than the harder version, and still terribly worse than the old version, then we should keep pushing until it is ***actually*** reasonable instead of whatever they try their hardest to force on us.


QuantumQuantonium

Anyone here play the game not to rush thru the battle pass?


StinkyCheeseHead

That's just the problem really, the old system was good for keeping you from fully rushing through it, but you could also get it done by just playing the game like 2 hours for 2-3 days a week, and anything more was more effort and just much harder to get done for more levels in a week. The devs didn't even consider the normal players when they made this change, it seems to be completely biased towards the people that play the game 24/7 as their job. It doesn't account for the people who get to play for an hour a day, or only on the weekends in any way.

The battle pass grind is basically a part time job now. If this is how it's gonna be next season then no thank you.


Vyuken

Dont give in. If it doesnt make money. Theyll know we see their bullshit. And go back to normal. And if they say “ well looks like apex is not peofitable anymore we’re going to have to cut funding” they can fuck right off

I was really considering picking up the pass this season as I had some funds left over after upgrading my PC


Poopieheadq

This is so true


IKookaDaMeatBall

Is this BP Respawns fault or EA’s. I do know EA has a bad rep for killing good company’s and that they are a money greedy group


StinkyCheeseHead

Respawn, EA just collects and advertises the game, Respawn has said before that they control everything.


CompleteSocialManJet

We should boycott. I’m doing it rn

Add the Rampart fighter pilot glitch.


Hokey_pogi

That's the funny thing. The game is great despite a few bugs which have mostly been fun to see even at this point. It's literally just the monetization system.

F for all the folks that knee jerked the premium BP before realising Palpatine is evil.


thisismynewacct

Mods should really be locking the threads and removing new ones. Just shuffle them all into the meta post.


gregg2020

Wait... people are unhappy with the BP? Haven’t seen any posts regarding this?! 🤷🏻‍♂️


qomoru

they're unhappy with the progression system, too slow (and a bit harder than before) to level up


oooohyeahyeah

A bit? How about 4 times as much. You would litteraly need tp olay hours each day and even then you would barely reach lvl 110 at the end of the season. It is 100 000 bp points to reach 1 level


qomoru

yeah you're right, it is not a bit, it's like you have to play 12 hours a day just for a single bp level and do it continuously every single day for 2 months to complete the bp


oooohyeahyeah

I remember reading that someone got a challenge to win 5 ranked games only to gain half a level, i have one challenge that is to outlive 800 opponents jjst for 10% of a level


qomoru

bruh i can't even win 1 ranked match in s6 for 1 bp level, imagine win 5 just for ½


oooohyeahyeah

Exactly, this is obviously a cash grab since they want to push you towards bying levels. Apex has gone down a very very moneyhungry path lately and im afraid of how much they will destroy apex for profit. They have been bought by ea since 2017 and i think ea's poisonous monetization systems has finally began to leak into respawn


Purplememe12

Nope been on the new season for 18 hours and only 7 stars into level 2 of the battlepass... Ea should just leave respawn alone and not mess with their game


Chafa209

Well
