A seasonal update in Apex Legends always includes a brand new character as well a range of other incredible additions, whether it\u2019s a new map or even a fresh mode, the devs never fail to get the community excited. However, with Season 11 on the horizon, the game\u2019s community called for a different style of update, one that just focused on fixing underlying issues and server problems. Despite this being popular among players, the idea was shut down by Respawn, claiming it wasn\u2019t possible to just move all the devs from content creation to bug fixing. In response, a set of players have begun planning a boycott for the Halloween event to force Respawn to \u201cacknowledge the problems\u201d and fix the servers. Apex Legends players call for boycott on Halloween event Server issues and major bugs in Apex Legends have been frustrating the community for a while and one set of players has a plan to force a reaction out of Respawn. Taking to the Apex Legends subreddit, chopinaopolis called all players not to spend any money over Halloween and completely boycott the event. According to them, EA\u2019s only focus is drawing in more money, and fixing the servers doesn\u2019t generate revenue so they\u2019re not interested in addressing the problems. \u201cPlease don\u2019t spend any money on the Halloween event\u2026 that\u2019s all EA cares about, they could care less about the server issues and bugs as long as they make money\u201d. Despite the thread receiving a lot of attention, it appears Apex players are split over whether a boycott will work. Some believe the sheer amount of members on the subreddit will be enough to make a difference: \u201cThere\u2019s 1.8 million people on the sub so that would be a big dent\u201d. Whereas others think the idea has been done before and failed, making it pointless to even try: \u201cOh is it time to boycott Apex again? I\u2019m sure it will work out this time\u201d. Either way, with Respawn explaining that it\u2019s simply not possible to conduct a dedicated health update for the game, it seems unlikely that a boycott would change the minds of the devs. The community will just have to keep their fingers crossed that Respawn can eliminate and fix these server issues, so players get back to focusing on the exciting new content that arrives in each season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apex Legends players plan boycott against Halloween event for \u201chealth\u201d update Respawn EntertainmentApex Legends players have called for a boycott against the upcoming Halloween event to force Respawn to implement a server health update.
