Strange Apex Legends bug lets downed players melee opponents Respawn EntertainmentApex Legends players that have been knocked down usually use a Knockdown Shield to stop other legends from attacking, in Season 4 it appears that you can actually fight back. Respawn Entertainment has never mentioned that a change has been made to the way legends behave when knocked down by opponents in previous patch notes, not even for the new season\u2019s patch, leaving some fans pretty confused about what\u2019s happening in the game since it went live. It\u2019s difficult to say if it\u2019s actually a bug or a secret tweak that\u2019s been made to the game, although the latter isn\u2019t really something the devs are known for. Patch notes usually cover all bases. One Reddit user, Kemble95, has posted an interesting video to the Apex Legends subreddit that might well have just revealed a bug that allows players to actually melee their enemies after being struck to the ground. What makes this bug, or change, so unusual is that since the game was released in February 2019, no legend has ever been given the ability to strike opponents when floored. However, the glitch shows Wraith pull out a blade on the ground \u2013 where you\u2019re usually defenseless \u2013 and take down an enemy Lifeline that\u2019s also knocked, but doesn\u2019t have any melee abilities. Some players might look at the footage and think it would be a cool addition to the game, which may be true, although there\u2019s definitely an imbalance at the moment if some legends are able to exploit this bug and others aren\u2019t. There is no mention of the issue on the official Apex Legends Trello board, at the time of writing, and it\u2019s unclear as to how many players dropping into the game have actually experienced problems of this kind.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
