Apex Legends\u2019 Season 11 map, Storm Point, introduced players to the Gravity Cannon which launches players across the map at high speeds. While Gravity Cannons can be extremely helpful in certain situations they don\u2019t always work as intended. Now, one player experienced a deadly bug surrounding the Gravity Cannon that unexpectedly ended their game early. Apex Legends Gravity Cannon bug kills player The bug comes from Reddit user alex1inferno, who posted a brief clip of the incident on the Apex Legends subreddit. The video shows a solo Vantage player leaping across Storm Point after a fight. Unfortunately, they\u2019re spotted by enemy players right after using Vantage\u2019s Echo tactical ability. While attempting to use the underside of a Gravity Cannon to take cover and heal, the Cannon starts up and launches the player directly into the storm, despite being nowhere near the launch pad. Tragically, the Vantage player could do nothing as they hurtled into the storm and died, losing the game. According to some commenters on the thread, this isn\u2019t an isolated incident either. \u201cI\u2019ve had this happen twice in back to back games on the other side of the grab cannon. Shoots you up and backwards lmao.\u201d Another user called ErnieDaChicken also experienced a similar bug and said, \u201cThis happened to me and a teammate as well in end game of ranked\u2026 definitely no longer utilizing cannons as cover.\u201d However, one player thinks it may just be that specific Gravity Cannon that\u2019s bugged. \u201cThis one is bugged, and will do this. Don\u2019t take cover behind it like this. Had to yell at my buddy to avoid this, he thought I was crazy.\u201d Whether or not this is an issue with all of Storm Point\u2019s Gravity Cannons remains to be seen, but hopefully, Respawn can provide a fix for the issue soon before more players end up launching themselves to their doom.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Deadly Apex Legends Gravity Cannon bug is killing unsuspecting players Respawn EntertainmentA strange Apex Legends bug ended one player\u2019s match after they were unexpectedly launched into the storm by a Gravity Cannon.
