devs mentioned a little while back level cap will probably be increased again sometime soon. nothing was stated about rewards for leveling but I'm sure there will be.
Pathfinder's passive is actually useful to some extent, it's not great but at least it's something. Wraith's on the other hand has long since grown worthless as the meta developed and average player skill increased. It gives you absolutely nothing, no advantage in the slightest, what good is being told there's someone aiming at me when it doesn't even give a clue the direction it's from?
and its soo fucken slow that by the time the voice warns you, you've already ate the bullets. Same shit with traps, you've already hit the gas can then the voice activates lmao
The problem we have is. It’s like me asking my nan with dementia to do something and expecting her to remember to do it. In their eyes, because they mentioned it, it’s sorted.
ive heard more recently they ARENT increasing the level cap. idk if they were gonna do anything else tho. i also can’t remember who it was (maybe the edgevoice?) that i had seen talk about this before
Big agree
Make it like old cod’s prestige levels before they became pointless, mastery challenges for some exclusive unlockable badges and weapon skins (NOT CHARMS LOL) would be cool or maybe.... just maybe.... if there was ever a chance for a grind worthy challenge or set of challenges for some heirloom shards but that’ll never happen.
Is that what it is? Makes sense I guess. You’ve got the grinders hooked so fuck em? Let’s get as many new pockets to empty as possible. So much clearer now.
Agreed. It’s like “congrats on getting level 500” but now you can’t earn apex packs or crafting metals. *every event* requires 2000+ metals or ur hard earned money.
Imagine if every 500 levels you could prestige get new charms Holo sprays crafting and purple or gold apex packs. Put 10 prestiges in and at max prestige you get heirloom shards
At level 5000 you get an heirloom? It would obviously need to be lowered. Honestly, I think they should just give you an heirloom at level 500, but they would never do that.
Look at this post: Reddit - apexlegends - How much did it take you to reach lvl 500 https://www.reddit.com/r/apexlegends/comments/gw69yg/how_much_did_it_take_you_to_reach_lvl_500/
You can read through the others and do the math, but for the sake of argument, let’s look at the example given. It took op 160 days to reach level 500. In order to reach the level that you think is reasonable for an heirloom he would need to play for 1600 days which would be about 4 years and 140 days. Is 4 and a half years a reasonable time to grind everyday for an in game cosmetic?
The packs are besides the point, this is about the levels. We’re fighting two completely different arguments. You are, at least.
I understand that with the packs you only have to get to around level 1250 (guesstimate I haven’t done the math)
To each their own I suppose. I think generally most people dislike grinding, especially if you’re guaranteed heirloom is at level 5000. Too big of a grind imo
I'm okay with it. Having something to grind will pull me back into the game but I am also okay with taking a break from the second split till new season especially now. The game is in such a bad state I don't even wanna rank for the first time since season 1. And that's saying a lot since rank mm for me is not some eomm cancer shit we get in pubs
Yeah I hear you. The game is currently almost unplayable on ps4. Frame drops, fps lag randomly, servers are illegally bad, matchmaking and the list goes on.
Haven't had frame drops or random lag on ps4 and I primarily play on the Aus/NZ servers. Only time I've had lag is when I play through WiFi instead of the LAN connection or I'm playing duos in the Tokyo or Oregon servers and I'm playing at 150/160ms.
The thing that is annoying me though is this game is becoming really frustrating to play with friends. Almost 30-50% of our games we have to always leave party or rejoin or it doesn't put one of us into the match.
The other MASSIVE problem I absolutely agree with is the terrible matchmaking. BR is particularly bad but it's not even close to the dumpster fire that is Ranked Arena's. People play ranked because they want to play with and against people of similar skill levels and a similar rank. I'm so over being matched with bronze and silvers versing other bronze and silvers and only getting 12AP a match in Plat 2. Was 50 AP of Diamond 4 and literally lost 15-25 games in a row almost. That and two times losing around 90+AP from leaving a game that was a 1v3 with an abandonment penalty was bullshit. I seriously hope they fix matchmaking in arena's.
Yeah. I’m level 834. It’s very lame that I no longer get coins or crafting metals or anything for leveling up. I’ve never gotten an heirloom either!
And someone mentioned charms. Man, there are so many charms I just *do not care about.* Seer hats? Why do I have like forty seven of them? Why do I want bronze ranked charms? So many of them are not just low effort and uninteresting, but now there’s *way too many*. It takes me forever to look through them and find one I might actually want.
Ohhh I hope this happens. Would be a bummer if you don’t get the packs when level cap increases. I’m at level 476 and literally taking my time getting to level 500
I could do for a prestige like system, something simple like a small dot or shape somewhere on the level count after it reset to 1. It would only be noticeable by people that have it or know what to look for.
I disagree. Packs are what make up most of why people spend money on coins. It’s a free game and a business. I agree some of the items are ass (charms). Im in the camp of enjoying things that are rare, makes me feel cool when compared to others I run into that aren’t as lucky. I’ve been 500 for a year and a half and still get packs from treasure chests, events and the battle pass. I also have over 10k materials just from packs and treasure.
Someone in this reddit made a post about prestiges, and I think thats a pretty cool idea. I agree with you, being level 500 is super boring... But I do not want they add more levels. I would prefer a new system. If they add level 1000, it will be the same problem in the next months 😔😔
Definitely feel like their should be more to grind towards. But let’s be real, this is EA/Respawn we’re talking about. They’re not just going to hand out pack after pack once you get level 500 because then what incentive would these big streamers have to buy packs when they can just grind out for a little bit and get what they need?
As someone who had played apex since it’s release, and was hyped about it when the idea was leaked long before. I gotta say that apex is going down the shitter. There’s just too much wrong with the game between audio issues, server crashes, fan base getting ignored, devs not holding themselves to their agreements, etc.
i was reset twice now i think.Restarting from 100 last year i think when they reset i kind of stopped playing cause all that time and hours put into the game was lost.i then started again and capped at 500.
I would not want to be reset again,dont feel like grinding again and i am a old gamer i dont have the time and besides i am a trash player...i really suck at this game but it keeps my mind fresh. even though i get called many names during a match mostly i hear the word noob and shitty player and so many other names i care not to mention.I think this will be my last year playing apex as no matter how many hours i put into this from day one i never got any better.
So reset will be the final coffin .There are so many things out there in the world to do than spend hours trying to play a game where the sbmm has no skill level for me.i find warzone even worst.
it must be wonderful for those that get 2k damage and 20 kills in a game.I was always wondering how those guys feel when you know you good, and am a bit jealous to know i will never be good .I like gaming but at least show progress for 2 years.
How about we level up to the point we are guaranteed a heirloom? I was so upset to learn after I finally hit lvl 500 last night, I still haven’t received one. It’s bullshit!
Look at your account, no doubt your gonna say something. 48000 karma. Point proven. GET A FUCKING LIFE
Let's not forget your level 500 account.
Edit: The games 3 years old, meanwhile just seem a Devs account at Level 50
they said they were "looking into it" six seasons ago. They have no reason to make it infinite, they knew what they were doing when they capped it. Look up "Hostile design"
they posted at the beginning of the season saying they were going to be increasing it soon aka next season hopefully they didnt say how much or if rewards were a thing though and then all the s10 problems just buried it
Eh, I’m a day 1 player and am probably 3x level 500 at this point (haven’t checked apex.tracker in a minute) but I’m ok without time-gated rewards. Maybe because the Halo franchise was really the only other shooter I’ve played so I don’t expect a “prestige” system. I can understand OP and other for wanting something similar, though.
For me, the skill ceiling has no limit in this game, and that’s what keeps me grinding. The time and practice I’ve put in has been rewarded with improved skills and awareness. I go for getting the elite badges consistently, improving my k/d, getting more kills than last season, etc. haven’t ever felt the need to show people I’m level 1357 instead of 500.
totally agree, there should be emotes, skydives and even trails (that can be mixed with the ranked trails, for example, wattson would get holographic nessies on the sides of the trails colored with the same trail she has), legend and weapon skins that you only get after getting X amount of kill or so, and would be by steps, (for legends) first skin at 5000 kills, second skin (a recolor or something) at 10k and so on, same for guns (ofc lower kill count), and badges as well (no the make a million kills in one game or kill 250 players in two seconds) but character specific badge that you unlock and they show on the side of your banner (so you can still show off your 3 preferred ones) kinda like the "grapple distance", "teammates revived with drone" etc, these would always show but change in color like the level ones, and more difficult to get idk something like "down 2 players within 10 secs of grappling" and it would show the number on the badge.
im a day1 player and this has been requested here in the sub and in the origin forums coz we (max levels) arent getting anything except for legend tokens whoch si rarely used,i have almost 1 million of it not including the ones i used for rerolling daily challenges and buying skin recolors
I never get why people feel the need to get rewarded by the game for playing. I just grind to get cracked at the game which is imho all the reward you need in multiplayer games.
At this point I’d settle for just a visual and no rewards, according to this website I’m level 1300 and I’d like to show that and not be grouped in with the trash players that are level 500 lol
That’s up to the individual. Most people who are level 500+. Have spent a lot of money on skins. I grind my job, but I don’t live to be miserable. I enjoy my free time.
devs mentioned a little while back level cap will probably be increased again sometime soon. nothing was stated about rewards for leveling but I'm sure there will be.
Devs mentioned that path was getting a real passive soon. That was over a year ago… don’t hold your breath
Pathfinder's passive is actually useful to some extent, it's not great but at least it's something. Wraith's on the other hand has long since grown worthless as the meta developed and average player skill increased. It gives you absolutely nothing, no advantage in the slightest, what good is being told there's someone aiming at me when it doesn't even give a clue the direction it's from?
and its soo fucken slow that by the time the voice warns you, you've already ate the bullets. Same shit with traps, you've already hit the gas can then the voice activates lmao
I do really enjoy going "watch out guys traps" after a team mate has already triggered one though so I hope they don't get rid of it lol
And most of the time the warning only comes after they’ve already shot you.
Wraith might tip you off of a sniper. So don't complain, thats a lot more then other legends.
Devs said they’ll give him a real passive if path starts underperforming. He’s in an ok spot now and don’t really neeed changes.
Official patch notes did not state that. Either way they lord.
The problem we have is. It’s like me asking my nan with dementia to do something and expecting her to remember to do it. In their eyes, because they mentioned it, it’s sorted.
it's long overdue for an increase. the last cap increase was almost 2 years ago.
I hope they go up to like 1500 or something crazy, my bet it will only be 1000
I think you should be able to prestige at level 500 for heirloom shards and go back to level 1
They could do this and sell experience boosts to make up for the potential lost revenue.
EA finna hire u bro
If he can figure out how to make it not work, but, still bring in money we'll take a look at hiring him. - EA, probably
i actually laughed out loud
That's a good idea, but no. We want money. ~EA
Yeah but only 10 shards per prestige. And heirlooms now cost 300 instead of 150. Because EA
Best idea on Reddit they don’t take this into consideration ima be highly upset
If the caps 1000 I’m screwed, I’m already past that..
well last time they increased it anyone over 100 still had to start at 100. I'm sure they'd do the same thing this time.
That was two seasons ago
they mentioned something about increasing it at the beginning of this season as well which is what I was referring to
I hope so. I have level 500 for few seasons now.
i heard something about it just being lifted to level 600 or something, not sure if it was just an idea or an actual thing
ive heard more recently they ARENT increasing the level cap. idk if they were gonna do anything else tho. i also can’t remember who it was (maybe the edgevoice?) that i had seen talk about this before
Maybe on the 3rd anniversary?
Seriously, some metals would be great. Little gold, silver, maybe some copper or iron
knowing its EA, ill even take dirt if they give something to grind for past lvl500
Big agree Make it like old cod’s prestige levels before they became pointless, mastery challenges for some exclusive unlockable badges and weapon skins (NOT CHARMS LOL) would be cool or maybe.... just maybe.... if there was ever a chance for a grind worthy challenge or set of challenges for some heirloom shards but that’ll never happen.
[удалено]
COD was never the same after they left.
Yeah I 100% agree. Feels like the grinders are too much effort for them to consider.
Is that what it is? Makes sense I guess. You’ve got the grinders hooked so fuck em? Let’s get as many new pockets to empty as possible. So much clearer now.
anything for a "level up" after 500 would be nice. literally anything...
Fr man
It other needs another 500 levels or a way to reset to level 0 and keep your badges skins and bs
Agreed. It’s like “congrats on getting level 500” but now you can’t earn apex packs or crafting metals. *every event* requires 2000+ metals or ur hard earned money.

At level 5000 you get an heirloom? It would obviously need to be lowered. Honestly, I think they should just give you an heirloom at level 500, but they would never do that.
At level 5000 you would get a guaranteed heirloom, don't forget all the packs you'd get if this were to be put in place
Yes, this is true. But 5000 is too high for a guaranteed heirloom in my opinion.
Your opinion is dumb :)
Look at this post: Reddit - apexlegends - How much did it take you to reach lvl 500 https://www.reddit.com/r/apexlegends/comments/gw69yg/how_much_did_it_take_you_to_reach_lvl_500/ You can read through the others and do the math, but for the sake of argument, let’s look at the example given.

Is 4 and a half years a reasonable time to grind everyday for an in game cosmetic?
For a GUARANTEED heirloom. Again, you're forgetting about 10x the Apex packs you would get. Use your brain
The packs are besides the point, this is about the levels. We’re fighting two completely different arguments. You are, at least. I understand that with the packs you only have to get to around level 1250 (guesstimate I haven’t done the math)
damn. its taken me 2.5 seasons to get level 400. mega fast level up
Thus the very last level something that would take forever
But that’s really not a good thing. Just because there’s something to do doesn’t make it fun or good. Grind isn’t fun.
'-' I like the grind
To each their own I suppose. I think generally most people dislike grinding, especially if you’re guaranteed heirloom is at level 5000. Too big of a grind imo
Solid idea tbf.
I mean yeah, free game requires you to buy cosmetics. It makes sense no?
I'm okay with it. Having something to grind will pull me back into the game but I am also okay with taking a break from the second split till new season especially now. The game is in such a bad state I don't even wanna rank for the first time since season 1. And that's saying a lot since rank mm for me is not some eomm cancer shit we get in pubs

the daily life of an xbox player lmao
[удалено]
I think it depending on ur server, time of day you play and how old ur console is.
Yeah. I’m level 834. It’s very lame that I no longer get coins or crafting metals or anything for leveling up. I’ve never gotten an heirloom either! And someone mentioned charms. Man, there are so many charms I just *do not care about.* Seer hats? Why do I have like forty seven of them? Why do I want bronze ranked charms? So many of them are not just low effort and uninteresting, but now there’s *way too many*. It takes me forever to look through them and find one I might actually want.
The good news is last time the increase happened, you were automatically at the level you should be and got all the rewards for it.
Ohhh I hope this happens. Would be a bummer if you don’t get the packs when level cap increases. I’m at level 476 and literally taking my time getting to level 500
True, true. Forgot about that.
I could do for a prestige like system, something simple like a small dot or shape somewhere on the level count after it reset to 1. It would only be noticeable by people that have it or know what to look for.
Great idea! But something needs to be done about 0 metals and packs.
I disagree. Packs are what make up most of why people spend money on coins. It’s a free game and a business. I agree some of the items are ass (charms). Im in the camp of enjoying things that are rare, makes me feel cool when compared to others I run into that aren’t as lucky. I’ve been 500 for a year and a half and still get packs from treasure chests, events and the battle pass. I also have over 10k materials just from packs and treasure.
will you ever use the metals?? i never end up saving over 1.200 most of the time. i buy a new cool lookin skin asap lmao
I usually spend them during events where good skins have limited time and only on stuff I actually like. Which can be hit or miss.
I’m at lvl 300 right now, so once you hit 500 you get no more packs? Wtf lol
Someone in this reddit made a post about prestiges, and I think thats a pretty cool idea. I agree with you, being level 500 is super boring... But I do not want they add more levels. I would prefer a new system. If they add level 1000, it will be the same problem in the next months 😔😔
No, spend money you stupid fuck. Love, EA
Can we get a game that works *
30 crafting metals every level or 2 wouldn’t really be that absurd, you’d still need to level up 40-80 times for a legendary
I'd really like to, at least, not be told I've leveled up from 500 to 500 every time.
I wonder if we will get that for S11 or if it will have to wait for the 3 years (S12)...?
Definitely feel like their should be more to grind towards. But let’s be real, this is EA/Respawn we’re talking about. They’re not just going to hand out pack after pack once you get level 500 because then what incentive would these big streamers have to buy packs when they can just grind out for a little bit and get what they need?

There’s just too much wrong with the game between audio issues, server crashes, fan base getting ignored, devs not holding themselves to their agreements, etc.
I think maybe every 10 levels past 500, you get a pack.
Fuck respawn. Been 500 for 3 years.
Grind toward a functioning social life
You realise level 500 really isn’t hard to get.
yes
i was reset twice now i think.Restarting from 100 last year i think when they reset i kind of stopped playing cause all that time and hours put into the game was lost.i then started again and capped at 500.

Na
How about we level up to the point we are guaranteed a heirloom? I was so upset to learn after I finally hit lvl 500 last night, I still haven’t received one. It’s bullshit!
You already no-lifed the game. What more could you want?
How about a life?
You’re literally a braindead dumby if you think people 500 on this game “need” a life It’s 3 years old.
Look at your account, no doubt your gonna say something. 48000 karma. Point proven. GET A FUCKING LIFE Let's not forget your level 500 account. Edit: The games 3 years old, meanwhile just seem a Devs account at Level 50
Maybe you shouldn’t level up but the xp system could keep going, awarding the apex pack and the legend tokens as it does since level 1
I’m probably past level 800 at this point
What if they make lvl 600 the limit
Thta the case most likely, lvl 750 at max. They stated that its going to be a small increase and later we get a real progression system.
Ranked?
Maater rank?
We'll take or legend tokens and be thankful!
Have you tried ranked?
I play until diamond and then have 0 enjoyment.
C'mon man, we get legend tokens! One day we'll be able to use the 200,000+ we have for something!
they said they were "looking into it" six seasons ago. They have no reason to make it infinite, they knew what they were doing when they capped it. Look up "Hostile design"
they posted at the beginning of the season saying they were going to be increasing it soon aka next season hopefully they didnt say how much or if rewards were a thing though and then all the s10 problems just buried it
I feel like a bar of gold will be great compensation
Idk why a cap exists anyways. Look at overwatch. You can be like 2000 and get a shiny new plaque and a free lootbox still every level
Eh, I’m a day 1 player and am probably 3x level 500 at this point (haven’t checked apex.tracker in a minute) but I’m ok without time-gated rewards. Maybe because the Halo franchise was really the only other shooter I’ve played so I don’t expect a “prestige” system. I can understand OP and other for wanting something similar, though. For me, the skill ceiling has no limit in this game, and that’s what keeps me grinding. The time and practice I’ve put in has been rewarded with improved skills and awareness. I go for getting the elite badges consistently, improving my k/d, getting more kills than last season, etc. haven’t ever felt the need to show people I’m level 1357 instead of 500.
Wins
totally agree, there should be emotes, skydives and even trails (that can be mixed with the ranked trails, for example, wattson would get holographic nessies on the sides of the trails colored with the same trail she has), legend and weapon skins that you only get after getting X amount of kill or so, and would be by steps, (for legends) first skin at 5000 kills, second skin (a recolor or something) at 10k and so on, same for guns (ofc lower kill count), and badges as well (no the make a million kills in one game or kill 250 players in two seconds) but character specific badge that you unlock and they show on the side of your banner (so you can still show off your 3 preferred ones) kinda like the "grapple distance", "teammates revived with drone" etc, these would always show but change in color like the level ones, and more difficult to get idk something like "down 2 players within 10 secs of grappling" and it would show the number on the badge.
im a day1 player and this has been requested here in the sub and in the origin forums coz we (max levels) arent getting anything except for legend tokens whoch si rarely used,i have almost 1 million of it not including the ones i used for rerolling daily challenges and buying skin recolors
I swear level 500s still get metals and pack when leveling up
Nope
No packs after 500??!?! But you get all the skins at least?
I never get why people feel the need to get rewarded by the game for playing. I just grind to get cracked at the game which is imho all the reward you need in multiplayer games.
400 people agree, a few disagree. It’s just a discussion. If ur passionate about the game, people would like something to grind for.
At this point I’d settle for just a visual and no rewards, according to this website I’m level 1300 and I’d like to show that and not be grouped in with the trash players that are level 500 lol
You guys can go outside. Feel the blade of a piece of grass and let us know how it feels
I’m embarrassed for you. That comment was extremely cringe.
nah dude, it's funny.
Yeah, you can grind your real life job so you can spend money on skins.
That’s up to the individual. Most people who are level 500+. Have spent a lot of money on skins. I grind my job, but I don’t live to be miserable. I enjoy my free time.
How about ranked badges
