#Apex skateboard full#
I thought Activision would take a similar route when rumors of Warzone's next map first emerged, especially after a full year on a map that never changed in meaningful ways. The active map rotates often enough that the current one rarely feels stale. I was a little skeptical when Respawn first rolled out the map cycling, but the strategy has worked out pretty well. Apex, on the other hand, has three full-sized maps with distinct styles. Apex players probably had a good chuckle when Activision billed the new Verdansk '84 map as a "brighter, more vibrant'' take on Warzone by slapping some red on a few buildings.Ĭall of Duty has always skewed toward a gritty look, but that's also its only look. Maybe the bright colors are hitting a bit harder coming from Warzone's Verdansk, a notoriously gloomy region where the most colorful things around are a few patches of dark green grass. The other team will still have a slight edge with more cash for grenades or medkits, but it's a more even playing field than Valorant's discouraging save rounds that you're basically destined to lose. I like that the match automatically ramps up each round by upgrading armor and giving more starting money to everyone.Įven if my team starts out on the back foot, it's neat that we can reliably bring competitive guns into the next round.

You're definitely encouraged to save early on by sticking to the free P2020 pistol and lower-tier SMGs, but the game isn't as stingy with currency as Valorant or Counter-Strike. It's pretty wild to take Apex's guns and throw them into a CS:GO-style buy menu. My return to Apex has mostly been fueled by the 3v3 Arenas mode. That's not just my feeling, either-the free battle royale has enjoyed a surge in players thanks to Season 9 and an explosion in popularity in Japan (thanks in large part to vtubers embracing the game).
#Apex skateboard update#
Coming from a surprisingly bland Warzone Season 3 update and the disappointing new Verdansk map, Apex feels like the cool battle royale on the block right now. Arenas, a permanent 3v3 round-based elimination mode with a buy menuĭespite some balancing woes with the bow that were addressed earlier this week, players seem pretty happy with where the game is heading, and I can see why.New weapon: The Bocek, Apex's first bow.New legend: Valkyrie, the jetpacking missile baron.
