Revision history for Apex Legends: Why Caustic Is The Worst Legend Explained
Additions:
According to a few different tweets from industry analysts, Apex Legends is already outgrowing Fortnite . As a rough timeline, it appears Apex Legends hit 2.5 million players in just one day after launch, 10 million after three days, and 25 million after seven. It's an incredible feat that will likely need to slow down at some point in the near future, but for now, it's setting a pace that would make Apex Legends one of the most successful games ever. For reference, Fortnite Battle Royale hit 10 million players after two whole weeks, and didn't hit the 25 million mark until sometime between weeks six and ele

Apex Legends released just one week ago, but it has already become one of the most talked about games in the industry. Developer Respawn Entertainment endured a brief period of fan outrage when it was revealed Titanfall 3 had been postponed - or worse - and that EA had asked the studio to create the next big battle royale title instead. That anger lasted for all of a few hours before the game released, though, and has since been replaced by the kind of excitement usually reserved for a AAA game launching after years spent publicly in development. With Apex Legends hitting over 25 million players already, it's clear that the game is already entering rarefied air in the indus
For those more interested in the narrative behind Apex Legends , there's still plenty of that for them. Canonically, the game takes place after the events in Titanfall 2 . Despite this, there are no Titans in [[https://apexarenaelite.com/ Apex Legends missions|Https://apexarenaelite.com/]] Legends , which is sure to be a bit of a sore spot for fans of what developer Respawn Entertainment describes as a power fantasy. Still, the story of the game is worth noting, and is more or less perfectly conveyed within the opening cinema
In total there are 60 players in a single match, which also means that there are a total of 20 teams. Each of these teams is comprised of the eight playable Legends that are available for selection.

The release of Apex Legends comes just at the end of an exceptionally dismal fiscal quarter for EA , who published both Titanfall entries and acquired Respawn back in late 2017 . According to the first page of the report , however, there is light at the end of the tunnel into which EA has dug itself. The statement points to the obvious cash cow of FIFA , the heavily marketed Anthem , and the newly released Apex Legends , but it also promises investors relief in 2019 in the form of another Titanfall -related project that has yet to be formally announced. For now, it's anyone's guess what " related Titanfall experiences " fans have to look forward to this year as it's left intentionally vague. Of course, Titanfall 3 is squarely out of the question, so the end product could take the form of anything from a mobile game to a remake, or, most compellingly, it could be the Oculus VR game that Respawn in rumored to have been working on for a while

Mirage is the other unlockable Legend and he’s far more fun to play than Caustic. His abilities have somewhat of a steep learning curve, but are incredibly useful when played well.

EA had Battlefield V releasing alongside Black Ops 4 but the publisher rushed developer DICE into releasing the game just two years after Battlefield 1 , meaning it launched with much of its content missing, including the game's co-op mode and Firestorm battle royale mode . Worse yet, Firestorm will only support 64 players, quite a bit under the magic battle royale player count number of 100. As we know now, Apex Legends will support even less play

Titled **[[https://apexarenaelite.com/ Apex Legends ranked guide|https://apexarenaelite.com/]] Legends ** , the new Titanfall game is a battle royale that will feature three-player squads but, weirdly, no actual Titans (the large, playable mechs the series takes its name from).

Fortnite also launched into PUBG , so the argument that Apex Legends is capitalizing on a market that's more fertile isn't a completely sound one. That being said, however, there's certainly more people invested in the genre than there used to be, so Apex Legends ' numbers might be what to expect from great battle royale titles in the future. The game still has a long ways to go when it comes to concurrent players as well, as Apex Legends recently surpassed 2 million - Fortnite hit over 8 million concurrent players late last y
