Why Apex Legends players don\u2019t want leaked CAR SMG added The new CAR SMG was recently leaked in Apex Legends, but it seems that not as many players want it to be added as you might expect. Unlike some other popular battle royale titles, new weapons have been few and far between in Apex Legends, with there only being three added since the game released back in early February. That hasn\u2019t stopped some from leaking, however, with Titanfall 2\u2019s CAR SMG being among the latest to be discovered in back-end game files by data miners. However, despite it being new content for the game, there has been a fair amount of players who would prefer it not to be added, based on the leaked details about the weapon. Discussing the new gun on Reddit, quite a few users explained why the CAR should be put on the back-burner and the VOLT energy SMG (another newly leaked weapon) added instead. Is the new CAR SMG worth adding in Apex Legends? One Reddit user, \u2018_J3W3LS_,\u2019 didn\u2019t want the CAR added because it would add to an already \u201coversaturated\u201d pool of weapons that use the same ammo. \u201cWhat ammo type, light?\u201d the user wrote. \u201cIt would probably be a better R-301 and worse R-99 in an already oversaturated ammo type. Add the VOLT as an energy SMG before the CAR surely.\u201d \u201cI agree,\u201d \u2018QRIO44\u2019 replied. \u201cWhen adding guns, they need to consider ways to change up the meta too, and if a gun is too much like the R-301 or R-99, it\u2019ll be an underwhelming addition.\u201d User \u2018Omsk_Camill\u2019 wrote a rather long spiel for why it would not be a good idea to add the CAR, as there are already too many weapons that have a similar function. \u201cWe already have Alternator, R-99 and RE-45, which is for all intents and purposes R-99, but worse,\u201d he explained. \u201cWhy does CAR need to exist when those three guns are already present in the game? What niche will it occupy?\u201d \u201cI\u2019d rather have Volt in the SMG class, or some other high-dps, slow-projectile energy weapon, basically L-Star lite, but common. Or something more exotic, like a low-damage high-firerate large-magazine light ammo LMG. Anything that has not been added already.\u201d No matter which side of the fence you\u2019re on regarding the CAR, there\u2019s no doubt that this debate about whether or not it should be added is an interesting one. There are certainly plenty of players who would rather it not be added, which could be why developers Respawn Entertainment haven\u2019t been so keen on constantly introducing new weapons into their game. Only time will tell whether or not the CAR, or VOLT for that matter, will be added in Apex Legends, and these comments could very well help Respawn make their decision moving forward.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
