168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Apex Legends released on February 4, 2019. That's 980 days ago, 140 weeks, or two and a half years. The game has changed a lot in that time.
Weapons have been changed, the maps are almost completely different from their original forms, and the meta of the best legends ꦺand guns has changed multiple times. This list takes a look at things only old players of Apex will remember.
10 ꦏ Skull Town 🍌
Skull Town pretty much epitomizes the original success of Apex Legends. Although the location has popped up on several occasions over the last couple of years, the original Skull Town is firmly cemented in any original Legends' minds who dropped onto King's Canyon back in February, 2019.
It was a place of almost total chaos. There's not really much of a surprise that it was phased out of the game: the entire lobby dropping on Skull Town meant that everyone in the game was dead before the first ring closed. However, if you managed to walk out of there alive, you were probably leaving with 10 kills or more. Super fun, and always great to see it returned to the game for special events.
9 💞 The Original Wingman ♚
The day-one Wingman was a disgusting weapon. Twelve rounds, tons of damage, with a bonus for headshots, and the weapon quickly became one of the most popular in the game. There are loads of clips of skilled players wiping two or three squads with a 🧔single mag of heavy ammo.
It was so popular that it had to be nerfed. The Wingman is still one of the most enjoyable games to use in the game, but it doesn't come close to how powerful it was back in the day.
8 🅺 Bunnyhopping
Apex Legends has always been about movement mechanics. It's one of the reasons the game is so popular, and while there are still some useful tricks you can use in the game, Bunnyhopping was one of the OG movement exploits that was ultimately removed from the game.
You we🐟re a𓆉ble to Bhop around corners while healing, which was really the most valuable part of learning the skill. People were a bit upset when it was removed.
7 🐠 The Original Gold Backpack
The Gold Backpack used to be one of the most overpowered items in Apex. It allowed you to use all shield and health consumables at a much, much faster rate. With the some decent movement (and Bunnyhopping) you could back to full health in just a🌳 few seconds.
This was later removed, and really that was pr🤡etty jus🍰tified. It was extremely broken, if a lot of fun to use.
6 Bugs, Bugs, Bugs ♎
The earlier seasons of Apex were a lot of fun,✨ but not without their problems. Bugs came in all sorts of shapes and sizes. Terrible footstep audio was a big breaking point for a lot of players, especially those playing in competitive environments.
Hit registration and generally pretty shocking audio for weapons were also a big problem. Thankfully, many of these issues h﷽ave been ironed out over the൲ following two years, although with every new season there always to be some sort of new issue. One of the funniest bugs was the old "bin jump" which allowed you to rocket into space after punching a supply bin.
5 The Apex Elite Queue 🐟
A precursor the Apex Legends ranked mode, the Elite Queue was a playlist that rewarded you a stacking badge if you managed to survive until the top 5 squads in a match. It was a neat idea, but you'd mostly just have squads camping out in some silly hiding spot rather than fighting.
Rankꦉed arrived in Season 2 and the Elite Queue vanished for ever. Those badges are pretty rare these days.
4 The W𓂃attson Ranked Meta
One of the first big meta playstyles to emerge in Apex Legends arrived with the introduction of an 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:official ranked mode and the new legen🍸d, Wattson. Although she looked pretty weak at first, Apex was a much simpler game back then, and being able to hold rooftops, rooms, and other important areas within the final ring actually made Wattson extremely viable.
She saw widespread use in both ranked and some of Apex's first professional tournaments. Wattson might be a bit on a weaker side these days, but once upon a time, she was one of the most-selected legends in the game.
3 Disruptor Alternator 🥃
Easily one of the most powerful weapons to ever grace Apex Legends, the Alternator Disruptor was available as regular groundloot (the Disruptor was a hop-up you could pick up) 🌊which is a bit different from its modern care package form.
This entire season was an Alternator fes൲t. It was great to see an unloved weapon become so met🤡a, but ultimately, it was too powerful to stick around for long.
2 World's Edge Train And Winter Express Game Mode
With the introduction of World's Edge as a new playable map, along came its infamous train and the adjoining Winter Express game mode. The train was a great, unique addition (that some other BRs copied, of course) and the Winter Express mode was one of the first different modes you could play, a sort of precursor to 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:the current Arenas mode.
Anyone who played back then fondly remembers the Winter Express lobby music. Can't really go wrong with that.
1 💦 T﷽he Overpowered Charge Rifle
Ah, the Charge Rifle. Though the introduction of World's Edge was pretty awesome overall, the sheer strength of the hitscan Charge Rifle pretty much ruined the experience. The weapon is still relatively strong to this day, but nothing near as powerful as it was during Season 3.
It was nerfed pretty quickly and was made kind of re꧙dundant. The Charge Rifle has seen use every now and then and sometimes becomes a bit of a meta wౠeapon.
