With Season 9 of Apex, Respawn pushed out one of the biggest updates yet. Referred to as Apex Legends Legacy, this major patch released with new character Valkyrie, the powerful Bocek Bow, and even an entirely new mode. Arenas has quickly gone on to become a fan-favorite playlist due to the unique variety of gameplay on offer. It\u2019s completely different from the battle royale experience, offering up bite-sized action with all the Legends you\u2019ve come to love over the years. While the mode has been received well, for the most part, it\u2019s not quite perfect just yet. Players have been frustrated with early matchmaking issues, though Respawn has already outlined that improvements are in the works. One key criticism of the 3v3 mode gained traction in a May 27 Reddit post. Experienced veterans were quickly growing tired of being matched up with relative newcomers. \u201cI\u2019m well over 500 with just under 3K hours in the game,\u201d Reddit user \u2018JimeeB\u2019 said. \u201cBut I just played 10 matches of Arenas where not one of my teammates was above level 150.\u201d With hundreds of upvotes and dozens of comments echoing a similar experience, this post caught the eye of Respawn\u2019s Lead Software Engineer Samy \u2018ricklesauceur\u2019 Duc. \u201cI do believe this is what Respawn wants with their matchmaking,\u201d one player suggested. \u201cNot really,\u201d the dev responded. \u201cI am working on it.\u201d Read More: Best Legends to use in Apex Legends Season 9 &#8211; \u201cOverall the fairness of a game is pretty even but we understand it is a bit tiring when level disparity is high in your team composition. It will improve.\u201d No exact timeline was mapped out, but it\u2019s clearly a priority for Respawn. Arenas teams should feel a little more evenly matched once this fix arrives in Apex Legends. It might not be a perfect fit, with similarly experienced players filling out every team. Though the improvements should help balance the new competitive mode so that no one ever wants to leave out of frustration.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apex Legends devs promise they\u2019re working to solve \u2018unbalanced\u2019 Arenas matchmaking Respawn EntertainmentThe latest addition to Apex Legends, a popular 3v3 Arenas mode, is already in line for some changes as Respawn Entertainment has confirmed a matchmaking improvement is on the way.
