Apex Legends players furious after being \u201crobbed\u201d by Apex Packs with missing items Respawn EntertainmentWhile the hype for Apex Legends Season 10 is nearing a fever-pitch in the final week before release, some players have been left with a bad taste in their mouths heading into the new season after being \u201crobbed\u201d by glitched Apex Packs. Apex Legends Season 10 is fast approaching its release date of August 3. Despite the anticipation for Season 10\u2018s launch, however, players have plenty of concerns heading into Emergence, such as worries about server stability and the power level of the game\u2019s new Legend: Seer. Now, in the final days of Season 9, some Apex Legends fans are being hit with a mysterious bug involving their Apex Packs (the primary source of acquiring cosmetics and crafting materials in-game), and are voicing concerns over losing out on their hard-earned items. Reports of the bug first began to circulate during the final week of Season 9, when players began sharing their experiences with bugged Apex Packs that only gave them two new items or sets of crafting materials instead of the standard three items per-pack. One player shared a video on Reddit of a freshly opened pack that gave them two sets of crafting materials, but had nothing in the last item slot \u2014 meaning a third of the contents were missing. \u201cWhy did this happen? Can I please get my stuff?\u201d they asked. While some players questioned whether the loading screen had glitched, and a new item or set of materials had appeared in the player\u2019s inventory, the poster was adamant that they had been slighted: \u201d I don\u2019t care if it wasn\u2019t [a high-rarity item], I still want the stuff I paid for.\u201d Others reported running into the same issue, but coupled with a server error being fed to them by the game that hinted at the reason behind these missing items. It appeared the rewards they were supposed to receive did exist, but weren\u2019t present in the game \u2014 yet. One fan shared an image of the error message, which read \u201cSome items in the Apex Pack have not been authored in the game yet.\u201d The poster then speculated on the cause of the glitch: \u201cDid I just get an unfinished skin or what?\u201d Players speculated in the comments that the bug could involve items coming to the game in Season 10, like cosmetics for Seer and the game\u2019s new Rampage LMG \u2014 both being added in Emergence. \u201cMaybe the game is trying to give [you] Seer\u2019s stuff, but since Seer isn\u2019t in the game, it\u2019s f**king up?\u201d one reply read. Despite the potential explanation, other fans didn\u2019t feel it justified the missing items: \u201cI felt robbed [that] I only got 2 items in the [bugged] packs,\u201d another player replied. Respawn pushes out fix for bugged Apex Packs After reports of the glitched Apex Packs began building up steam on social media, Respawn was quick to jump in and let the community know they were aware of the issue and investigating potential resolutions. Fortunately, that resolution came only a few hours later, and Respawn confirmed that a fix had been pushed out to address the glitch. They also revealed the source of the bug was not related to Season 10 items, but \u201cwas caused by a new Lifeline tracker configured to drop in Apex Packs too early.\u201d P.S. Heirloom shards don\u2019t appear to have been affected by this issue, despite widely-circulating images implying otherwise. Keep it real, Legends. \u2014 Respawn (@Respawn) July 31, 2021 Respawn will also compensate fans for their troubles, and confirmed that \u201caffected players will be granted a make-good pack and will find the tracker in their inventory after the 10.0 update.\u201d The dev also specified that, despite some reports, Heirloom shards seem to have been unaffected by the bug. Thanks to Respawn\u2019s quick resolution, you won\u2019t need to hold off on redeeming your Apex Packs after all. Feel free to cash in on any packs you receive before Season 10 kicks off on August 3, as you won\u2019t be able to acquire any unreleased skins after all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
