Apex Legends players slam \u201cannoying\u201d Lightning Rod audio on Storm Point Respawn EntertainmentApex Legends players are frustrated over the loud noises coming from the Lightning Rod POI while playing on the Storm Point map. While the Incisive Instigator Ash and the lethal CAR SMG have been praised by the Apex Legends community in Season 11, it\u2019s the tropical Storm Point map that the community is enjoying most. With breathtaking landscapes, unique POIs, and a dose of danger with the wildlife nests, Respawn has knocked it out of the park with Storm Point. Despite this, the map hasn\u2019t been faultless since launch, with players instantly dying in certain places due to bugged death spots. Not only that, the community has begun to complain about loud noises coming from the Lightning Rod POI, that can be heard from across the map. Apex Legends players frustrated over loud Lightning Rod POI Taking to the Apex University subreddit, user aphrotittie created a thread asking about the strange noises that occur while playing on the Storm Point map. Complaining that they\u2019re \u201csick and tired\u201d of asking what the sound is, they wondered if any other Apex players knew the source. It didn\u2019t take long for players to figure out the answer, revealing that is in fact the Lightning Rod POI causing the loud audio cues in-game. According to users on the thread, the sound echoes across half the map and can be heard multiple times throughout a match: \u201cDrop lightning rod and see if it\u2019s the sound you\u2019re thinking of \u2013 it echoes over half the damn map\u201d. While some were just curious about the noises, others have described it as the worst part about Storm Point, encouraging Respawn to remove it: \u201cThe Sound the damn lightning rod makes when it\u2019s struck is one of the worst things on storm point. Annoying to the max\u201d. As the audio isn\u2019t affecting the gameplay in Apex, it\u2019s extremely unlikely that the devs will consider removing Lightning Rod\u2019s loud noises. A potential alternative would be to make it so you can only hear the blasts when you\u2019re in the POI, but this definitely won\u2019t be a priority for Respawn anytime soon.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
