what are your thoughts on the removal of tap strafing in apex?
Man you are easily my favorite person to get my apex updates from!!
I don't understand why people say we console player have an advantage in close range engagements. we don't. it's way harder to aim a joystick than it is to aim a mouse and don't give me the "but aim assist!" argument because aim assist doesn't help you aim THAT much, it's just a little bit.
As a console player, I think this is great!!
Where do I go to find good team mates with mics? don't like playing with randoms. Pretty new to the game but iv played warzone a far bit
What I hope they do is remove it and add a way for everyone to do a movement tech like tap strafe on all platforms
I play on both contoller and M&K and even though it's annoying I never really cared about top-strafing
How about we focus on the ridiculous melee system where a player locks on to you from a long distance and knocks you
#fixmeleerespawn
They should bring back tap strafing and then make it to where you can use a keyboard and mouse on console. That way it does not matter at all
Apex on the wii😂
I’m controller, this was in my opinion a bad idea
I honestly don’t care weather it in or not. I do feel like it’s unnecessary, one of the tings apex is known for is the movement
I play on a toester and i have no disavantiges
Honestly the actual problem is smurfers but that’s a problem you can’t fix
honestly i feel like the people that are happy about this change probably never even saw a efective tap strafe in game and just dislike the posibilyty of it being used on them
Ok I'm going to be very blunt on this(keep in mind I'm a controller player so take what I say with a grain of salt alright?).
Tap strafe is personally to me is ridiculous and is just a way to bully players that aren't as good as you(especially since most players that you see doing this are pros or people trying to mimic them) and while yes controller has advantages as well, remember more controller players are playing with mnk players(and we all know how the topic of aim assist is a touchy one). At this point(as one streamer said perfectly), either controller players will be crippled to satisfy the ego of mnk players or the opposite will happen. No one will win this debate. No one. Not the players. Not the developers.
Idk I just want to enjoy playing apex legends without having to hear about people arguing about trival matters. If casual and pros can't see eye to eye, then I urge the developers to separate them from each other. It might not be a great solution but at least it'll be a start. Because of the bickering between causal and pros is both hilarious and draining. Same with controller and mnk. This is just my two cents on the matter. Thanks for reading and have a good rest of your day.
As a controller player Please do not remove tap strafing I think it’s a cool exploit and isn’t super op or anything and it’s also a really hard skill to learn
I'm on controller and I know alot of controller players who want tap strafe back.
Bigger worries about ea woke, apex blm badge making, incompetent servers, and game screens not loading than removing tap strafe that was never suppose to belong. Get over it, you never used it. The games not in danger by tap strafing getting removed you baby bitches.
I'm more upset with the OG skins becoming irrelevant, there's no such thing as rare skins anymore all skins coming back is annoying the only OG skins in the future will be the 'Blue:Rare, Twitch skins' that look horrible anyway…..
This doesn't bother me at all. If there going to remove something it should be these dam evo shield ijs. Also love you content keep it up brother
I don't think they should have take it out of the game entirely just nerf it a bit or give controller players tap strafing
Sure lets remove something that's been in the game since it launched. Lets get rid of the devs next.
Tbf its kinda cause of the number of videos pros and high level players made saying tap strafing is op"insert clickbait title" like if people shut up about it more it wouldnt have been nerfed so quickly
They're going aim assist too so I think it's going to be a fair trade.
They just keep nerfing and slowing the game down so I just play tarkov now, apex was amazing and fast paced but every update it's nerf slow nerf slow nerf slow $20 for recolored skins well I'm out have fun for me guys I will miss you apex it's been real
yea take tap strafe and aim assist out of the game xD
Tbh i dont think youtubers that changed to pc should have an opinion. Because the reason they switch was exactly because of the advantages you get from pc gameplay. Tap strafing, looting and moving, better fps. I think the people that started and always have played pc have a valid arguement. But to all the people that switched there opinions dont matter to me. Ive been playing since season 0 on console and ive always known my disadvantages. But people i believe the reason respawn finally fixed this because it was so evident from these streamers all switching to pc to get an advantage in the masses of competition that apex produced now. I mean if anyone on controller criticizes the pc gamers reply to consoles one advantage of aim assist that isnt really op like how tap strafing, bunny hop healing, and 180 turns. The movement mechanic was not supposed to be so op so it should get fixed not exploited. Wether its a pro or a hacker that gets upset it dont matter to me at least respawn recognised this.
I'm a casual player on Apex and I love the game..I have almost 300 hours in and was kind of able to tap strafe but it never really helped me out. I've been trying to wall bounce and can rarely do it lol! It's fun though. Remove tap strafe, could care less..game sense is what's more important to me
I play mouse and keyboard and I'm happy it's being removed. Really unrealistic movement that should never have been in the game. Also pretty impossible for me to do given I use my mouse wheel to change weapons so I'm happy it's gone.
I wish more people would read the full explanation they posted. It's 1400 word post.
The fact u can only tap strafe on PC is what makes it unfair not the actual action its self ( even though it turns legends into spiderman on pc)
I just hope more people jump ship to titanfall 2 so respawn actually fixes the ddosing issues.
My opinion is that MnK players in apex are the biggest group of cry babies in the history of gaming. You can do so much more shit on MnK than you can on a control. All we have is aim assist and MnK players can’t fucking stand it. Grow up and play the game.
Oh no a movement that breaks the physics of the game being patched out! omg I can't jump around the map like a crack addict and cheaply win fights cuz no one can hit meeeeeeeeee!!!!…. poops pants
I jhate the SBMM. I didn’t play for 2 weeks, and it was instant preds last night. I can’t log on without being served up like an appetizer to sweats. Why do I keep coming back to this abuse? 😂
They can keep fixing guns and other legends, but the game will never be fun cause of skill based
U from Trini?
I'm not suicidal but his words to the suicidal people made me smile a bit
Bro don't care what people think about you my G
I think its a good thing. I know a lot on console players that won't cross play cus of the adv u get on keyboard n mouse… yes cobtrollers easier close range but mouse is so much easier for long range. Not to much mouse is naturally easier n faster to reposition… so I think they cancel each other out. But m&k still has the tap strafing as well as the ability to loot n move (well underrated n massively beneficial) so I do think if you want competitive cross platform play then these things need to be addressed as m&k still have the adv over all
I personally don't really use tap-strafe that much so i don't really care that they are removing it, my friends on the otherhand are upset about it
As a casual controller player the only time I ever saw tap strafing was in clips on yt, certainly never lost a fight because of it and I dont know who's complaining. It's honestly just sad coz ik how much some people loved it
I never thought it was op or anything you can still shoot them from the sky but ig it does stop some tracker my opinion is it’s really fun to use and look at
You know if they wanted to fix the problem that controller can't tap strafe they could have just given controller players a button that spams forwards inputs just like mouse wheel does. And considering that that was my first reaction you know that respawn would have thought of that too.
As a console player, this doesn't affect me at all. My only thought about it, as Kijanna mentioned, is why make this move and why make it now?
It’s like people don’t realize this is a unintended bug they just didn’t patch and not a mechanic of the game.
You can tap strafe on controller as long as you're on PC with a controller
I think I Octane needs a buff especially after this
good it should be based around casual players, also anything that wasn't intended to be in the game the creators have all the right to get rid of
