Apex Legends players want major changes to “worst” Battle Pass in gaming
Apex Legends players are frustrated with the current state of the battle royale title’s Battle Pass, with some calling it the “worst” one in gaming and calling for major changes.
Each seasonal update of Apex Legends features a new Battle Pass to progress through and doing so will grant you a plethora of in-game rewards, including new cosmetic skins for your favorite Legends.
However, the Apex Legends community is not pleased with the game’s Battle Pass, as many players want Respawn Entertainment to bring some significant changes to its progression and rewards.
Reddit user ‘DudeWithName’ expressed their frustration with the Battle Pass, claiming that it “feels like a slog” to progress through and doesn’t have enough good content to justify how long it takes to unlock rewards.
When the Redditor asked other players if they find the Battle Pass enjoyable, many of them agreed with the post’s sentiment and shared their own criticisms in the comments of the thread.
One user expressed that Apex Legends easily has “the worst” Battle Pass system of any battle royale title that they’ve played, claiming that they find it extremely difficult to unlock cosmetics across the 100 tiers.
They then added that the only thing they look forward to is the Legendary Packs. However, the Redditor praised that you can earn more Apex Coins than you end up spending in the Battle Pass, describing it as the “only redeeming thing about it.”
Apex Legends Season 14 features a brand-new Battle Pass with a new skin for Wattson along with other free rewards, and the players in this thread were not impressed with the included content.
One of the commenters stated that they were only interested in the Legendary skins but even those weren’t that impressive. They then described all the other unlockable rewards in the Battle Pass as “junk.”
A common criticism in the thread was that it has too many “filler items” that players don’t care about. One user feels that season trackers shouldn’t be included as they become “obsolete” after the season ends.
They claimed that filler items from Siege and For Honor’s Battle Passes are better in comparison. So, players in the thread feel that removing these items and adding different rewards would incentivize them to progress through the tiers.
It remains to be seen if Respawn Entertainment will respond to these criticisms. Season 14 brought a major change to the Battle Pass challenges so that they will feature both a Battle Royale and non-Battle Royale option.
This was done to ensure that players can complete their challenges in each game mode. So, it’s possible that the developers will implement more Battle Pass changes in a future update, and we’ll be sure to let you know if they do.
