Apex Legends\u2019 early game is often determined by the quality of loot and looting, with players always eager to drop in at the game\u2019s hottest POIs and secure equipment and weapons that will propel them to victory. Attachments are important too, with players always keen to pick up Rare, Epic or even Legendary attachments to augment their weapons. Season 14 changes finally introduced a Laser Sight, allowing players to don a barrel attachment to refine their hipfire. However, player responses have been mixed at best, with many lamenting the futility of the new gear. Apex Legends players criticize \u201cuseless\u201d Laser Sights That was certainly the prevailing mood when one player asked for the community\u2019s thoughts on Laser Sights. One respondent said that there\u2019s rarely an incentive to pick them up and suggested the hipfire buff they offer should be increased: \u201cUseless, and now my Alternator can\u2019t carry a barrel for the R-301 I\u2019m looking for\u2026 I know they\u2019re actually not useless because they tighten your hipfire spread, but I have literally never said \u201cI need a laser sight\u201d.\u201d Another described them as \u201cliterally a scam\u201d, saying that hipfire should not have been nerfed to begin with. A third fan hit out at the nerfs to hipfire, saying: \u201cThey actually had to nerf hipfire on all SMGs and now only the purple laser brings you back to hipfire values from previous seasons.\u201d Some though, did suggest they have a place and any loot pool will naturally have more and less desirable items. One positive response read: \u201cI like being able to customise the colour of the laser, I don\u2019t like it reseting to default every game lol. But they do make an impact, you can see in firing range the reticle spread tightens increasingly.\u201d Changes to Laser Sights and the loot pool could come in the near future, but it\u2019s always a balancing act for Respawn who have to consider the wider ramifications of changes, not just how the player base feels at any given moment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apex Legends players demand buffs to \u201cuseless\u201d Laser Sight attachments Respawn EntertainmentApex Legends players have called for buffs to the \u201cuseless\u201d Laser Sight attachment, claiming there\u2019s currently little point in equipping the Season 14 addition in Respawn\u2019s futuristic battle royale.
