Something I really hope they do is a weekly playlist of Arenas, Control and Gun Run. Completely scrap Ranked Arenas, but having it on rotation might make some more people play it.
I wish they included a option for preferred optics on each gun that way I'm not stuck using something I hate. I don't get why they haven't done this before since it can streamline arenas and Team Death Match mode. I think it would be best placed in the lobby where you can your change gun skins and charms. It would also add another useful feature to the most useless tab in the lobby
Like a “preferred optics” button? Maybe it could also auto equip your favorite optics if you go into the pickup range of the optic. That would be pretty cool

One thing that would help with the verticality problem would be little map additions like more ziplines and/or some kind of pre-placed jumpad, or something that works like the things in the IMC armories' that launch you upwards. Would add a little more spice to existing maps, too.
One thing that I really really dislike is the bones on skull town being a playable area. So many people camp and third party from those. Other than that it’s very fun!
@@Kostas_epic_gamer it’s even worst in gun game the map is to small so you always get shot in the back by a bunch of people and there’s no skillbased matchmaking so in one game I got put with a level 4 bloudhound and I was with my freind who’s level 11 and got put up against people that are level 500
I suck with the flatline and there was a game where I literally could not get a kill with it and it was the first weapon. I did about 1000 DMG but no kills so I couldn't move up. Meanwhile my teammates were doing pretty well so when I finally moved up I only needed like 4 kills and then I got the knife and hit the first headshot I threw with it. Moments like that make this mode so much fun.
One thing they definitely need to add to Gun Run is that if your stuck on a gun after like 3:00 you swap to the next one. I just recently got into Apex, so I’m not the greatest, and there are time where I’m just barraged with bullets, and it take so long just to move up to the next weapon.
That and a better matchmaking system. I'm not too new (lvl 163) but it's matching me and my new friends with like full predator teams 💀 so they get stuck on like the hemlock for 8 years
Respawn: Oh no, Valkyrie's ultimate makes no sense in Gun Run, let's make it much faster and much shorter so it fits the scope of the mode. Also Respawn: Loba who?
I don't know why Apex is so against anything Solo related. I remember they mentioned once it decreased their playerbase somehow, but that makes no sense to me. Sometimes I just don't want any teammates holding me back.
@@dslight113 You mean like the 6 different modes that is being divided into right now? I don't know if adding 1 more is going to make that much of a difference
I will allways have a special love for Gun game. In my young teenage years i used to go to my local internet cafe just to play it in CS:S for hours joined by a lovely Jolt Cola. CS:S is the king of community mods and the o.g. Of Gun game mode.
@macro, they should make it that you siphon a bit of hp as well so that you don't have to heal after every fight to keep the fast pace that gun run should have.
My favourite thing about the new mode is that yesterday I had three games in a row where one whole team was missing from the start and one of the other teams wasn't having their score tracked and therefore couldn't win, saw one guy get 5 knife kills before my team finally caught up.
By the way I have an answer for your question at 3:32. It’s simply that Apex Mobile had a Gun Game mode on it at the same time and they didn’t want the two gamemodes to confuse people.
Honestly I feel like that one town between bunker and runoff could work pretty well. The one with the slum Lake style buildings that’s still unnamed for some reason.
Don't cry ma boi. I only play Arenas & the match-ups are quite frequent so it's definitely not dead. To be real, I haven't played BR in last 3 months. 😂
Loba's ult is very stituanitional in this gamemode there is a very small chance you can yoink a blue armor and bc you die very quickly you dont realy even have the time to use her ult to block doors
I personally don't understand Respawn's reluctance to implement solo modes because the game is based around a squad of 3. Legend kits could easily be tweaked so they have a use here, like Ana being able to Nanoboost herself in Overwatch Deathmatch. Of course the longer time goes on the more work that'll be so who knows if it'll ever happen. I actually think Gun Run would 100% work better solo because, as usual, leavers absolutely ruin it.
HERE COMES BANANA SLAMA! The name is Donkey, and he's a monkey In fact an ape to be precise, nnyes Lives in the Kongo, he play de bongo Bananas are his one and only vice (They kinda taste like babies!) Little Diddy, he's just a kiddy An itty bitty monkey noob And look at Candy, oh, she lookin' so fine She got de hairy monkey boob!

Fly through jungles, mountains, caves And the world's worst-maintained mine Come on and beat your chest on a fruit-based quest And we'll have a real good time Changed his look, but kept his name Changed his pal and changed his dame But he came and changed the game And the world was not the same Come on and swing through trees, live like Wookiees And shoot into the sky There's an ostrich who's got tennis shoes Uh, what is this and why? King K. Rool, he's a big green tool Got the goons all comin' for you Ya gotta take him down, de-crown the clown But ya gotta make it through his crew! Ya got beavers, vultures, giant bees, a demonic oil drum Come on and beat your chest on a fruit-based quest And we'll have a barrel of fun Look out, old DK is back!
For verticality issue, I think they can give some ways to access it eventho the player dont play with vertical character. like the ropes, or built-in grafity lift.
I have two other major problems about the game mode as well. I feel like it should be blue armors not white, and there should be no Caustic and Wattson. On maps that are mostly focused on buildings, Caustic and Wattson are both kinda broken, especially in such a high paced game mode.
I have this great idea for a game mode where all the characters ultimates get replaced with calling down a big mech robot maybe protected by a dome shield and it would be team based with different mechs to choose from
My friends and I have concluded that the mode would be a little more enjoyable if TTK was slightly slower. Give us blue shields! (Make lifelines pack make purple shields to balance)
As much as I agree with a solo’s mode, I think in a game with as long of a kill time as apex it could be a 3rd party nightmare. I also think switching to blue evo’s for everyone on the map would be an amazing change cause white evo feels like it gets burnt through just a little too fast
The one thing ruining this gamemode for me is the matchmaking. I'm not good at apex and I'm pretty low level (80 or so) and every single game is against level 500s or higher. I should've also said that the 2 MAPS IS PITIFUL.
I do agree it could use more maps. If it is brought as a permanent mode, the matchmaking needs to improve. I hate going up against people with 3000+ kills and are absolutely dominating everyone in the server
So you know how they changed arena quests to "Non-Battle Royale" quests? I think it's not just for limited modes, my guess is that instead of br and arenas we will have one slot for BR and one slot for Non-BR, which will cycle between Arenas, Control and Gun Run
Gun Run - and in fact, all non BR mode, INCLUDING Arena and control: -- needs to have empty-fills match making. In fact, the lack of empty fill is what killed Arena. Penalty doesn't solve it in traditional mode. Look at the reviews on Gundam Evolution (ie Gundam Overwatch): all the negative review is the penalty on quick play. It's a bandage, not a permanent solution.
My comments: -Sorting factory would be amazing -Fix the servers. I'm very low skill but I face masters every match -yes change loba -change the damage dealing legends like Vantage and Fuse. Vantage especially changes the way the mode is played.
Respawn claims that the reason they don’t have permanent LTMS like control is because after two weeks of the LTM being out people stop playing it cause they get bored of it but you’d think they’d apply that same logic to BR & Arenas
What’s the Best APEX LTM?
Gun run
Train
Mirage Train mode. Goddamn chaos
Control ez
Either control or winter express
We need a whole show of macro talking to other macros
Yes
Yes
Oui
Ja
Sì
Apex needs to make more LTMs. I love Apex like my baby but when there is a bad map there's really nothing else to do
We need a serach and destroy ltm. Then we can rotate weekly between control, gun run and s&d
well you could, ya know, play a different game
what about, arenas?
@@Andrandom890 I meant fun LTMs that people play
@@nooptiui well I don't wanna play a different game
Something I really hope they do is a weekly playlist of Arenas, Control and Gun Run. Completely scrap Ranked Arenas, but having it on rotation might make some more people play it.
If normal arenas stays I'm ok with it.
But Arenas is goat
Lol u predicted the future
Mfr really predicted the future
God that pitch meeting at the start sent me 😭
Really hope it becomes permanent. Haven’t had this much fun in an LTM since Season 8 War Games.
Season 8 was one of my favourite seasons with awesome ltm and with Fuse who is now my main.

Gun run feels like it wouldn't get boring if it was permanent, unlike Control
FACTS!! Control frustrated me many times by getting shot of 5 or more people who sit at a zone and your team is at the other side...
@@Kostas_epic_gamer gun game is even worst you always get shot in the back and the matchmaking is broken
@@quietkid6933 That's a problem in any shooter game especially in apex legends that will be the same for years 😂.

quick tip, if you get a kill with an ability( fuses nuckle clusters, mother load or ramparts ult) it wont advance you to the next weapon
This and control are fantastic mode for getting damage and kills and I love that. I hope it stays too.

Fr. It also means you don’t actually get to go through all the guns
its about que timers, more mode's will devide the player base more and then u increase the timers.
@@dslight113 You mean like the 6 different modes that is being divided into right now? I don't know if adding 1 more is going to make that much of a difference
@@hxyuni i guess so , they stated this sometime ago. My que timers for br are already over 2 minutes and that is super low mmr

Macro is the only reason I stil play apex thx for that.
7:50 FORESHADOWING
A good solve for more vertical maps would just be to add pads and/or zips from the spawn points to the most middle part possible
“Give the players a chance to play solo” NOOO WAY. Playing solo will never happen
Best Macro vid intro I’ve seen. Thank you for brightening my day with that 👍
Excellent video Macro, big ups man 👏👏
Gun run is so refreshing and fun for the game, I vote for it to stay
@macro, they should make it that you siphon a bit of hp as well so that you don't have to heal after every fight to keep the fast pace that gun run should have.
legit stopped playing gun run to watch this
Let’s GO! Carter ace in the intro is peak!!!
I hope you do a overwatch 2 for noobs it would bring back the memories it releases October 4th ❤love your vids
Maybe add octanes jump pad around the maps for escapes or just to get a good position
“It ryhmes?”
“It does”
“That means it’s good”
Best POI without a doubt would be construction building fragment west
LET IT STAY
This is the video I needed.
who else wants a deep rock galactic for noobs vid?
My only problem with Gunrun is You will face preds and 3 stack masters no matter your rank. It’s a fun game mode but team balance is terrible.
My favourite thing about the new mode is that yesterday I had three games in a row where one whole team was missing from the start and one of the other teams wasn't having their score tracked and therefore couldn't win, saw one guy get 5 knife kills before my team finally caught up.
Vantage's ultimate shoud reward you with a new gun when you get a kill with it.
The meeting with that reaction about solos was the best description of Respawn / EA I have ever seen.
"People will finally play solo"
"YO WTF DID YOU SAY MAN? YOU DON'T SAY BAD WORDS LIKE THIS"
The intro man was a masterpiece 👌 🙌 👏
Those skits are getting more and more hilarious
Macro: we want infection!
respawn: we have infection at home
infection at home: *Shadow Royal*
love the boneworks music in the end!
I love this game mode, I think og Sorting factory would be AWESOME, I miss that place so much

I would love an objective or coop pve mode ngl. Something lore related, like that Loba's quest...
This was a banger as usual 👍
Don't cry ma boi. I only play Arenas & the match-ups are quite frequent so it's definitely not dead. To be real, I haven't played BR in last 3 months. 😂
1:35 oh not u macro... u got "raid'd"

So bad guys scored your 'nanner hoard
And ya really better boogaloo
Ya gotta get 'em back, ya gotta get on track
'Cause it's on like you-know-who!
Fly through jungles, mountains, caves
And the world's worst-maintained mine
Come on and beat your chest on a fruit-based quest
And we'll have a real good time
Changed his look, but kept his name
Changed his pal and changed his dame
But he came and changed the game
And the world was not the same
Come on and swing through trees, live like Wookiees
And shoot into the sky
There's an ostrich who's got tennis shoes
Uh, what is this and why?
King K. Rool, he's a big green tool
Got the goons all comin' for you
Ya gotta take him down, de-crown the clown
But ya gotta make it through his crew!
Ya got beavers, vultures, giant bees, a demonic oil drum

Look out, old DK is back!
honestly this mode is the most fun i’ve had in a while and it’s making me actually play again 😂
i think the intro was funniest one yet 😂😂
Lol “no no no solos”😂😂😂😂

Not only would solo be more fun but it would be longer and make the game mode itself better
The BReak joke was good I laughed

I hope we get a controll shadowfall mode where when you die, you can choose to come back as either a shadow or a legend.
I remember playing this after I came back to apex and hating it but now I really want it back after getting better with all the guns

Now hear me out here
Titanfall maps. They would be good right
Valk looks like a maniac in the thumbnail.
I think if there is a solo mode, everyone would just pick Pathfinder and it'll just be a Grapple Pilot mania every match. AND I'M ALL FOR IT BABY
