REVIEW GAME APEX LEGENDS

Set in the Titanfall universe, Apex Legends is a first-person shooter in the battle royale style, with a little spice of Team Fortress 2 or Overwatch.


Respawn Entertainment from its inception emerged as a developer hidden in her many surprises. 2014 of Infinity Ward veterans is the year of the giant rider robot battles, while 2016 shows a Titanfall 2 with impressive single player and excellent multiplayer mode. And the surprise of this year is Apex Legends.

Set in the Titanfall universe, Apex Legends is a first-person shooter in the battle royale style, with a little spice of Team Fortress 2 or Overwatch. You will play one of the eight legends that the game provides, in collaboration with two other players teaming up against 57 enemies to see which team stands up to the end. That's enough to show a clear difference between Apex Legends and rival games like Playerunknown’s Battleground or Fortnite. But the brainchild of Respawn Entertainment does even more.

The first thing you will notice when entering the game is the almost absolute smoothness in controlling the character. Although you can no longer run on the wall like in Titanfall, Apex Legends still knows how to create a smooth rhythm in the game circuit with very low key latency. You can swing the rope, turn on the wall or slide the ground; All build one of the fastest and most diverse shooting products on the market today. You want to escape quickly from a battle and know that you know the loser? If there are any slopes nearby, you just have to slip out of it like nothing has happened. Want to ambush and surprise your opponent? What's better than climbing up on the roof and beating him up from above. The game has absolutely no damage when jumping, meaning you can comfortably drop from 17 floors to the ground without any scratches. This encourages players to move always, especially when it's your own enemy.

The tactical element of Apex Legends, however, not only comes from the speed and approach to the target, but also comes from a variety of gameplay that not only includes running and shooting. You still jump from above to the map at the beginning of the game and other elements of the battle royale, but with the design of the three-person team, the battlefield is now the playing field of 60 individuals divided into 20 opposing teams. shocking life. Teamwork is a must if you want to win, and developers certainly agree with this. The evidence is in Apex Legends, when team members are shot down, if they are quick and lucky to regain their banner (like a name card), you still have a chance to revive your team if you bring them That banner comes to the designated spots on the map. This adds a significant amount of depth to Apex Legends, when even one member survives, the chance of the team holding hands to step forward is possible. But don't be subjective either, because your enemies can do the same thing. No one knows for sure that the guy you lost at the beginning of the game will not come back with enough teams and make your team at the end of the game.

Legend is an integral part of Respawn's game. There are six legend options to choose from (eight if you can unlock it) and each person has different skills. Lifeline can heal allies, Pathfinder has a hook to increase movement speed or the Wraith is capable of running into another dimension, immune to damage for a few seconds. Each legend has two such abilities, and they have enough differences to create a unique character for each character, but not too strong to make this legend stronger than another. Reality proves that Apex Legends is one of the most balanced games that the writer ever played. No matter which character you choose, the advantage is always divided equally for both you and your opponent. Bangalore's bomb is no more powerful than Gibraltar's shield; the difference lies in the level and mind of the player itself. And although it works based on microtransaction, the game's purchased items are decorative, and the two unlockable characters are no more powerful than the rest of the legends, so you can safely play without fear of being pinched by other players with more money.

A special feature that the writer thinks that any game needs learning, is the ping system. Apex Legends in addition to supporting normal voice communication, also integrates an equally effective way of conveying information. By default, the middle mouse button on the PC, the ping system allows you to focus on the object you want to hint at and click the button to do so. Point at the opponent, automatically your character will notify other players of the presence of danger. Point to the box of items, items, locations, etc. and similar notifications will appear for the entire team. This is an idea that is simple, but useful and handled smartly, making the team's ability to work in groups significantly improved. Instead of sitting trying to hear what your partner says, a button will replace all the pain and inconvenience.

At the time of the article, Apex Legends has only a single map, but its quality is undisputed. Kings Canyon is a map big enough for 60 players, if you are interested in the area. As for the design perspective, Apex Legends has a map that is full of height, beauty and context. At this point you may be shooting each other in a cave in a canyon, while at other times you may be fleeing to find cover in the middle of a forest that has been burned. This contextual difference allows gameplay to grow in depth: this plant can have many loot, but too few shielding, or this sniper point has an easy way out. The only drawback is that in some hidden places, Respawn Entertainment may not have considered that the player can camp quite easily and accidentally ruins the game circuit. Although this is a rare occurrence, it can be considered an unfortunate mistake.
