Similarly to PUBG\u2019s classic battle royale mode, Apex Legends lets players kit out their weapons on the fly with a handful of attachments and hop-ups. These attachments are in a tier system, with gold being the best, and common being the worst. For the most part, you\u2019re able to just pick these up off the ground, but there are weapons that are fully kitted out already. These gold weapons change every season or so, and while they are incredibly powerful, some players have gripes. Many players, including Apex Legends professionals, would like to have the ability to change the sights on certain gold weapons, so that they aren\u2019t using something that gives them a disadvantage. They\u2019ve repeatedly called upon Respawn to make the change. \u201cPetition to allow us to change Optics on Golden Guns\u201d, tweeted Cloud9\u2019s Jamison \u2018PVPX\u2019 Moore, promising Respawn\u2019s Josh Medina a tier 3 sub on Twitch if they do so. Perhaps to PVPX\u2019s surprise, Medina did respond. The Apex Legends dev dropped a simple \u201c!remindme,\u201d referencing Reddit\u2019s reminder system for when something happens. Players certainly took it to mean that something is coming down the pipeline, though, celebrating in Medina\u2019s replies. \u201cITS HAPPENING,\u201d tweeted NRG\u2019s Tanner \u2018Rogue\u2019 Trebb while another added: \u201cPotential W incoming?\u201d Of course, this is a change that Respawn can likely only make once they\u2019ve taken balancing into consideration. As much as some players would want to throw a 3X on the R301, that might just make it a little too overpowered. It\u2019s also a change that, if it happens, would likely come at the start of a new season, rather than just be dropped in an overnight patch. So, we\u2019ll have to wait and see what happens.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apex Legends dev hints at highly requested change to gold weapons Respawn\/EAA few changes could be set to Apex Legends pool of fully kitted gold weapons as players have been complaining about the sights that some of them are saddled with.
