Some fans are desperate for a Ranked Play mode to be added to the popular new title \u2013 something that hasn\u2019t been implemented successfully in a big Battle Royale game to date and would separate Apex from competitors. Dr Disrespect aims to be the best in every game he plays, and this hasn\u2019t changed since the release of Apex Legends on February 4. Now, The Doc is hoping that a Ranked Play aspect will be added to the free-to-play title to make it more competitive and to stand out from its rivals \u2013 mainly Fortnite. \u201cYeah, and people are saying ranked mode,\u201d The Doc stated during his February 7 stream. \u201cWe have yet to see a ranked mode, a competitive mode, for a Battle Royale. Other than the tournaments that go on in Fortnite, the in-game tournaments whatever you call those, the Pop-Up Cups, which are kind of competitive. But an actual true, ranked playlist might be interesting because then it\u2019ll feel like we\u2019re playing for something.\u201d He added: \u201cThat\u2019s what we haven\u2019t been getting with a lot of Battle Royales, like, are we playing for something other than trying to be the last team alive. And it\u2019s easy, right. Fourteen wins yesterday.\u201d Different leaderboards exist in a number of the popular Battle Royale titles to give a somewhat ranked aspect to the success that players can track. However, that\u2019s not exactly what Doc is getting out \u2013 perhaps wanting a system where the best players only play against others who are on a similar standing to them, instead of dropping in against everyone. That would take away one of the more infuriating aspects of streaming Battle Royale titles \u2013 stream sniping. It would also be handy for someone like The Doc who is always trying to prove just how far ahead of the competition he really is. With games like CS:GO, League of Legends, Overwatch and even Hearthstone showing how well a competitive matchmaking, or ranked, system can work in various types of games, it isn\u2019t too difficult to imagine it working in Apex Legends.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dr Disrespect explains why Apex Legends should add Ranked Play Apex Legends has been out for less than a week on PC, PS4 and Xbox One, but already fans and are calling for updates to increase the game\u2019s chances at standing out \u2013 including one of the biggest streamers, Dr Disrespect.
