Apex Legends dev explains why \u2018Operation Health\u2019 season wouldn\u2019t work Respawn EntertainmentRespawn\u2019s Director of Communications, Ryan Rigney, has poured more cold water on the prospects of an \u2018Operation Health\u2019 season in Apex Legends, explaining why it wouldn\u2019t work for the Titanfall BR. Apex\u2019s recent issues have been incredibly frustrating for both Respawn and the player base. Server issues \u2013 which it was hoped would be solved by September 22 \u2013 have dragged on and players on all platforms are still finding disconnects all too common. The enduring problems have pushed a number of Apex Legends players to call for a season with no new content, purely focussing on solving the game\u2019s bugs. It is most comparable to Rainbow Six Siege\u2019s Operation Health, which occurred back in the tactical FPS\u2019 Year Two. While Respawn devs have expressed doubts in the past, Director of Communications Ryan Rigney seemed to confirm that it won\u2019t be happening, explaining exactly why on September 23. The conversation was sparked by Apex streamer BRose511, who said: \u201cI think I can speak for a majority if not all of the apex community with this: We will take a season of 0 new content for the game to be properly balanced, servers fixed, and audio issues resolved.\u201d However, Rigney responded: \u201cGame dev simply doesn\u2019t work this way. Devs aren\u2019t villagers from Age of Empires that can all just be moved from \u201ccontent creation\u201d to \u201cbug fixing.\u201d IDK how else to explain this.\u201d https:\/\/twitter.com\/RKRigney\/status\/1440858143773257730?s=20 He finished: \u201cThe Rainbow Six Siege example was a great marketing stunt tho. So was \u201cFix PUBG,\u201d which I worked on.\u201d Despite the popularity, the suggestions have been met with, it seems that Respawn is not really exploring them as a genuine option. As Rigney explained, only a select few on development teams focus on bug fixing, and transferring everyone to focus on one task is not only unrealistic but probably futile. Regardless of what comes in Apex Legends Season 11 and beyond, we hope to see the game\u2019s general health looking brighter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
