I think this is to do with client/server replication. Arc star is thrown by the player. The client stimulates the path it follows and so does the server. But the server has the final say and will update the client the next time it sends an update. On the client it hits wraith but on the server it misses and hits the bin. The weird path it makes is the client interpolating between where it thinks the arc star is, and where the server says it actually is.

I am not one of the experts, but I believe you are completely correct. 👍🏼

Serious question, why auto switching is a something that anybody may want ? I want to change weapon when i cannot use it.

Iirc, we had auto-switching-on-empty in Titanfall1 and Titanfall2 (though you mostly *couldn't* run out of ammo in Titanfall2-MP, so was a non-issue). So it's just something that didn't come up much before, and was the right call for Titanfall2-SP, and carried forward without much examination.

If the game wasn't out yet, I suspect we'd push for this (not auto-switching) as the default, instead of the other way around.

Not sure about him, but switching the gun slots would make sure you get attachments auto put on your "primary".

I often have sights go on my shotgun/sidearm instead of my main gun because I picked them up first.

I think this is fixed, now, likely as of this patch. If you're holding two weapons but have your firsts out, attachments will prefer to go to your *most recent* primary weapon, instead of the one that's in slot-1. Don't quote me on that, things could've changed since that change went into our dev branch.

So if I would like my second gun to get the attachments, I should make sure I holster my guns when it is out, is that correct?

Should be the case, yup!

Soon. You can see a few upcoming features on the Trello board:

Hi, hey, listen. I get that you don’t know anyone from the studio personally, that we might as well be evil robots or trained murder pigeons or whatever, for all you know. But if your takeaway from the last six months of Apex is “these diabolical lying money geniuses know exactly what they’re doing to surgically extract our soul cash”, then oh buddy.

Personal opinion here, from a grunt in the trenches: the last project this team put out was a $60 box product (that I love!). I assumed we were stuck doing that until the heat death of the universe, but lo’ and behold: Apex. I am super proud of the leadership & business teams for getting us from the “$60 at the door or gtfo nerds” sales model to “$0 to play, no P2W, cosmetics and battlepass keep the lights on”. Obviously we don’t have it all to a science yet, but I got to work on gameplay stuff today that everyone will play for free in X weeks/months and that’s cool.

Anyhow. Drew and Jay are being honest with you, and they’re good peopl...

so what does this coming in next patch means?

It says "Coming in future patch". Which is true! It doesn't say "next patch".

I'm honestly sorry that there was misunderstanding. Maybe we need something that more clearly says "on the way, but not the very next update". We definitely don't want to give the wrong impression.

You know what most of your player base wanted ..

For yall to fix the footstep audio.

Instead you gave us a death recap.

Booooooooooooooo

I get what you're saying, but those aren't mutually exclusive. The UX and Design people who built death recap took nothing away from anyone working on footstep audio issues.

If we weren't careful, features could steal (say) QA time that's needed elsewhere, but we're careful to not abuse resources like that. =)

There are definitely new features (death recap, solos mode, and more).

But re: auto-run: It was not “supposed to be in this patch”. It’s coming. Likely next patch, but we never promise until we 100% know for sure, because unexpected issues happen all the time. But yes. The internal work has been done, it wasn’t done in time for today’s update’s deadline, but fingers-crossed it’ll be baked into the next one.

Holy shit. This is amazing. <3

cool 👍 Sorry for my entitled phrasing lol

Hahah; all good, I feel you. =)

Titan_Helios

Is auto sprint only for consoles? Us pc players dont like to hold shift as well...

No; all platforms & control schemes.

CheshireBreak

why would auto sprint only be for consoles?

titanfall 2 had it. i want it

It’ll be on all platforms, all control schemes.

Thy will be done.

APEX HELP THIS DUDE OUT (and others like him) ASAP!

Good luck buddy - see you in the arena! 💯❤️✊

(Stay tuned!)

Are you on gamepad?

If so, my semi-educated guess: you might, in the heat of combat, be pressing on the right stick enough to trigger the "Melee" button press.

The peacekeeper correlation likely comes from it being such a tense wait-for-it-wait-for-it-FIRENOW type of weapon.

As a quick test, try this: Go into your gamepad settings, switch to "Button Puncher", instead of default. This puts Melee on the 'B' button instead of Right Stick.

Then play for a bit, and see if the problem has magically gone away. =)

(If this "solves" in, then my only recommendation from there is - if you want to keep Melee on RS - to learn to relax your grip a bit. Probably easier said than done, of course!)

Brilliant. Simply brilliant. As a fellow dev trust me when I say this: your hard work has not and will not go unnoticed and unappreciated. The fact that you managed to sneak all that in this release speaks volumes of your passion and dedication. Cannot wait to go home and try it out! I will also update this post for future reference when I get home.

A big thank you from everyone here and me personally for raising the bar on what's possible regarding aiming with a controller -- you guys really are the gold standard.

All I can add is to keep at it, I'm sure what led you to develop all these options can make you come up with other useful options we may have not thought of yet wink wink get in touch with that GEN1US pro player for inspiration wink wink

Stay tuned for gaming sites and especially YouTubers covering this change with the impact it deserves!

Oh wow, thank-you! A lot of people here put some work in, for sure. =)

All should be well, now. Sorry for the hiccup!
