While the arrival of the Heroic Defender Newcastle in Season 13 has been popular with the Apex Legends community, it\u2019s the Ranked Reloaded overhaul that\u2019s getting most of the praise. With heavily requested features like demotion and a Rookie tier being added, it\u2019s taken the Outlands\u2019 most competitive mode to a new level. Despite this, the Ranked Reloaded update has experienced a few hiccups since its release, one of which involves the RP compensation feature that is supposed to protect players who are placed into a match without any teammates. According to some members of the community, the forgiveness system doesn\u2019t appear to be working, causing them to lose the maximum amount of RP. Apex Legends dev responds to Ranked forgiveness bug Posted to the Apex Legends subreddit on May 11, user gibLight2 highlighted a bug that was occurring with the RP compensation system in Ranked Reloaded, causing solo players with no teammates to lose the maximum amount of RP. This thread quickly garnered a lot of attention with countless players sharing that they\u2019ve experienced the same glitch since Season 13 kicked off: \u201cThis is a bug\u2026 I was desperately trying to get to Masters and I had two games where we didn\u2019t get a third teammate and also did not get the loss forgiveness\u201d. A dev quickly responded to the post, explaining that they were investigating the glitch and that they would update everyone as soon as they knew any more information. Strangely, the dev returned shortly after to reveal that they couldn\u2019t \u201creproduce\u201d the bug and that it was likely an \u201cend of game display error\u201d. Despite this, users in the thread are claiming this issue has been present for a while and has been happening occasionally for multiple seasons: \u201cIt\u2019s been a bit inconsistent for a while now, had a few games last season that didn\u2019t give loss forgiveness to be fair.\u201d It\u2019s possible this RP forgiveness bug is extremely rare, so we\u2019ll have to wait and see whether the devs can pinpoint what\u2019s causing the glitch to occur. Either way, it\u2019s clear the Ranked Reloaded update has added some massively positive changes to the competitive mode, let\u2019s hope Respawn can iron out the issues with future patches.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apex Legends dev responds to confusing Ranked bug stealing RP from players Respawn EntertainmentApex Legends players are experiencing a strange Ranked bug that\u2019s failing to give them RP compensation when they\u2019re matched with no players in their squad.
