Apex Legends New Huge Controversial Changes Split The Playerbase
In today’s video I go over some huge changes being made to apex’s movement in season 12 with tap strafing and punch boosting which are causing great controversy for many players. I go over my thoughts and opinions on the topic as well as show some footage of these changes in action. Many are hoping that this is in fact the right move from respawn as these changes will definitely greatly affect gameplay for many people. Hope you enjoy 🙂

Thank you fix it just play how they made it to run,remove all advantages….
Why not add mnk support for console?
A lot of the game's problems stem from Respawn trying to balance input methods for ranked/competitive, but that becomes way less necessary if the same options are there for everybody. Make input method completely a choice on any platform; the complaints about aim assist/movement will still exist, but anybody is free to take whichever advantages they would like.
Crypto's buff is kinda overrated
Why the Fuck would they nerf Tap Strafing and Punch Boosting??? I litterally NEVER see anyone doing it in normal Lobbies and if its an Problem in high Tier Lobbies like Masters or Predator Lobbies than cry about it sweats but at this ranked Level you should know about it and use it sometimes too.
As an Averrage Player i personally use it too but i never see anyone else really doing it. Its literally 0% of a Problem in the Lobbies I'm playing. I could play literally an 9 Hour Session and find NO ONE using this kind of Movement – even when i get Preds in my Lobbies(!) and I'm an Silver or Gold skilled Player(!) with an KD of like 0.80 because i play alot.
They should focus more on fixing the broken Matchmaker that brings me often enough in Pred Lobbies where i don't belong.
Can you tap strafe with a controller? No. That’s why it’s gone. Controller players will never be able to keep up if there’s things keyboard and mouse can do that they can’t. If we’re gonna have crossplay it’s gotta be balanced. If you’re truly a good player you should able to adapt to these changes. Let the hate towards my humble opinion commence.
I hope we get a Legend with unlocked movement and some kinda movement passive.
What they should do… is nerf Aim assist
i don't understand the reason for removing some movement like some pros say its annoying playing against sht like punch boosting but honestly like dude you know you can do that sht as well right? like i don't see the reasons behind changes
I am happy they removed tap strafe and what you said about making it avaliable for both inputs should be done
Love the video but you were wrong about one thing. Tap strafing is accessible to console players. There are clips of console players doing it on YouTube and before anyone comments about this , look it up first. The problem with tap strafing is that it is a mechanic that players are taking advantage off. The game is made by respawn and its their sole decision about what they want in their game. Personally, I’m in full support of nerfing tap strafing. I’ve played other movements based games like Cod, halo, and Titanfall. Tap strafing is too excessive of a movement mechanic. If everyone starts to incorporate this movement mechanic, this game will turn into Fortnite in no time at all.
I agree with the changes personally
ngl i dont know how to tap strafe so removing it for me is not the end of the world better yet these good ppl cant out play me too much so im actually happy🤣
You know lately I started thinking that this is probably good for overall matchmaking and keeping new players around longer. Don't get me wrong I was pissed to hear about the punch boosting more than anything because how much I've used it to win fights recently, but I realize I used niche mechanic to win a possibly losing battle
Watching people tap strafe is fun, but not being able to do it because I'm a controller player? It kinda sucks when someone in game runs rings around you. I heard they were gonna try and bring it/a similar thing to the controller and was super excited, kinda hope they still do something like that bc movement in Apex is awesome, it's just very very uneven between mouse vs controller play. Like you can't even strafe while box looting on controller (unless there's some way I've missed? If there is I'd be delighted to know.)
Punch boosting is easy to do on controller. I do it all the time when I go down hills.
Sucks that they're removing it completely rather than just limiting how many times you can punch boost in rapid succession.
Hahahahahahahaha pc players got aim assist nerfed for console players and now want to whine when they get there device only movement ability nerfed. PC players = biggest hypocrites in gaming!!!!
Don’t care, I’d only care if they brought tf movement
I don't understand why people say that punch boosting is harder on controller as a controller player I find it extremely easy to do and I think it's complete bs that respawn is removing it
"… those of you who are crypto mains.." bro who is there find me one person
happy that tapstrafing is nerfed, sad to see punch boosts go
PC players should be lucky they didn't remove it completely because im on PS & my friends are on PC so when i play with them in their lobbies i see tap strafing all the time, i'll just end it with this. be lucky console players cant…
Well since tap strafe is going to be useless, I guess I am getting rid of my bindings and going back to playing Crypto.
removing tap strafing had to happen as controller players cannot do it, us mnk players have enough advantages, move while looting, 1 key heals instant armour swaps etc etc, my daughter told me on controller she cant even strafe left or right while in the air after jumping, wtf is that about, n they wanna remove her aim assist as well 0.6 kd no aim assist, fucking pathetic
I dont think tap strafing will affect consoles we dont have this ability to start with
Computer players want to be able to do all these extra mechanics. But get upset because console has Aim Assist.
I think them removing things that change up the game, at least make it so gameplay isn't the same as a year ago, isn't good. Honestly I think if it's just the same thing over and over for years it will get tired, that's my opinion tho.
Either they get rid of it or make it lagit as its always been a exploit in the game not intended so fuck em
Why would I be mad? I play on console. lol.
Maybe just learn the game with skill without using exploits
Apex; Hey pc players you can do a lot of things console can’t, so we’re gonna make it fair for everyone.
Pc players; you guys fucking suck fuck this game blah blah blah.
Get over it dude. Goddamn
now pc players get to see how it is to move like a controler player fr
#SaveMovementTheOnlyFunPartOfApex
Will be a horrible season and I‘ll might drop cuz of the movement nerf and no worlds edge.
Wonder how that works for console considering movement is completely different and limited
I mean, it's harder to wall jump on controller to, so why only remove punch boosting and not wall jumping?
They shouldn't remove either.
I'd say I fully mastered tap strafing in all known applications this season lol. It's sad to see it go, but I'm not entitled to something Respawn have clearly stated their stance on. I understand the frustration, trust me I spent several hours on training (sometimes more than I'd actually play matches), but I'm sure something will take it's place or we'll find a new way to strafe efficiently without being able to do full 180s. I think it's healthy for the game to have a high skill ceiling, but too high will turn away the casual playerbase, which is more important than us sweats because it's bigger. Just because it increases the skill ceiling doesn't mean it should stay or that it's good. My concern is the same though. This is a movement based fps so tap strafing really helped that shine. Hopefully, respawn doesn't forget that movement it's almost as important as shooting in Apex.
i just got back on apex and i've been practicing some of these movement mechanics but now they're removing it when i'm actually using them in games
wow nerf mnk to the ground that so cool I guess it's time to be a controller olayer
Punchboosting was a stupid glitch anyways, probably not worth the time to remove though.. 🙄 lots more shit to fix EA
Why is it that only the higher skilled players are catered to. Anyone who doesn't have the time to become highly skilled get rolled over by those who just have no lives and use all these mechanics against anyone else and makes their gameplay complete trash. Hard to come back to a game that isn't enjoyable because you're constantly getting stomped on and there is no way to compete
They were actually testing to see what people would think if they removed tap strafe but they are bot actually removing it because it was not in the patch notes.
people keep misunderstanding why tap strafing was removed
its not because of consoles
its because its a movement exploit that was never meant to be in the game, and the devs dont want exploits to decide balancing
Then stop bitching about aim assist
See this shit doesn't matter, because PC players are always complaining about Controller players and nerfing our shit all the time.
Honestly punch boosting is a exploit, it does in fact make you faster “seconds” in Apex matter every experience player knows that. On the other hand I was just learning getting the hang of punch boosting, it can literally LAUNCH you in some scenarios W/ Tap strafing I loved Apex for one reason and one reason only the movement only I mean the change doesn’t really effect me at all, but for PC players the only something is a problem I feel is when it solely effects there gameplay that’s why cross play caused lots of problems.
Yea let’s give MnK aim assist
Who is this person doing minute updates?
Dialect in his voice sounds familiar
Just stop, crypto isn’t good, he won’t be good, the buff is ass. Face sitting on a drone or throwing it 2 feet in front of you isn’t helping, and ok his ult destroys a few caustic traps, he would just put down more.
What they need to do is allow mouse and keyboard on console or remove PC from crossplay. Every single video I watch on YouTube is some PC player with absolutely no recoil at all and that is due to them having a mouse that has a button to remove recoil and it is bullshit
