Since its release in 2019, Apex Legends has grown to become one of the most popular battle royales globally, with it estimated there are more than 130 million players as of 2022. Like many other games, Apex certainly has its fair share of issues, with some encountering game-breaking bugs and glitches on the regular. Though, thankfully, the Respawn devs have done their part in frequently fixing any problems. While the game isn\u2019t perfect, it certainly has its quirks that players have fallen in love with, and its movement mechanics is one of them. Apex Legends players praise game\u2019s movement In a May 22 Reddit thread, Apex player \u2018floydkids\u2019 claimed that all other first-person shooters now feel boring, specifically mentioning Apex Legends\u2019 movement as a reason behind why. \u201cI\u2019m a relatively new Apex player (about 100-150 hours or so) and I have been really enjoying the game after work for the last few months,\u201d they said. \u201cI come from a variety of other FPS games like Valorant and Paladins, but after playing Apex for a while, I\u2019ve found it\u2019s hard to go back to the others without feeling slow, sluggish, and bored.\u201d They added: \u201cI know this game has its flaws, but I have to take a moment to appreciate the movement mechanics and gunplay in this game; it\u2019s unlike anything else out right now.\u201d Others in the thread agreed, with one adding that they now struggle to play other shooters where you\u2019re constantly on the move. \u201cI struggle to play other shooters where you\u2019re running around a lot,\u201d they said. \u201cApex is just so smooth to play and strafing-while-shooting is perfectly balanced where it adds to the skill ceiling, but isn\u2019t so fast that tracking enemies would feel impossible.\u201d \u201cI fully agree apex single-handedly made me quit cod legit cuz of the movement system,\u201d another added. While many have come to love Apex\u2019s mechanics, a fair amount of the community are calling on the devs for changes as players continue to use tap strafe macros.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apex Legends\u2019 smooth movement has ruined other shooters, players say Respawn\/EAApex Legends players have praised the game\u2019s movement, claiming it\u2019s impossible for them to switch to other games because of how smooth it feels.
