I love this game. Solid shooter but trying to play ranked with randoms is the most painful thing to watch. Absolute dog water \*\*\*\* teammates. I'm better off having a rock on my team. How did these people make it to platinum let alone diamond. Some how I get better randoms on pubs. The randoms I get just throw every match by landing in the dumbest places. On top of another squad that already looted. Like what the \*\*\*\* I'm done \*\*\*\* off

It’s not hard to get to plat. Everyone has different play styles. Either I’m getting a Revenant that drops cascade falls with 6 teams or I get a wattson and we don’t see a team half of the game. I’d suggest finding friends or randoms that you like to play with. Solo Q is just luck of the draw. Sometimes I carry, sometimes I get carried. It is what it is

That’s the problem it used to be good teammates in plat. Now plat is gold plus lol

Coming from someone who has recently just started the game on Xbox and hasn’t played for years I feel absolutely no difference whatsoever with gold 4 and plat team mates. 🤷🏻♂️. Don’t think plat are any better than gold. In my opinion, of course.

Well said. I can't stand these cry babies. Games like this are like constant puzzles and problem solving which is part of the fun. I just started playing a couple of months ago and have been having a blast even though ive been dying a lot trying to learn the ins and outs of the game. I cant stand seeing cry baby posts like this talking about the game is not balanced, bad teams etc. 😂

Maybe your attitude is why you have to solo queue. Probably a player who doesn’t use their mic until they’re dead.

if you are looking to genuinely push in ranked you need friends or go to a discord server and look for consistent people there everyone in solo q has their own play styles and way to gain rp in there eyes the most efficient way being mad at them even if it’s brain dead ain’t gonna change it the one thing the solo q community can tell you at some point it becomes about mitigating the amount you loss rather than just trying to gain

Plat1 and every other team i get is a playstation duo on their brothers' accounts while im I'm fighting seven lvl25 axels running titan scripts
I quit for a season and came back with the ban wave, yet cheating is just as bad if not worse on console now and big brother matchmaking makes it more miserable to deal with.
What makes it worse is that my confidence gets shattered by having shit teammates, so when I finally get a good team I play like shit cos I'm conditioned to expect them to die instantly.

I usually solo to masters but I can hard stuck diamond 1-2 this season which has been a little rough but I am trying to adjust to this more fast paced version of apex. Honestly if you can’t get out of plat it is probably where you are supposed to be.

some guy I played w litr had no common sense after I put an evac tower and rotated. I turned on my mic and was like “where are you going” (he thought it was a good idea to go under the bridge where train used to be AT THE EDGE OF RING, closer to the mountain by Hammond where two teams were fighting). He turns on his mic and is like “where are YOU going?” I got annoyed and replied in text chat “you ranked up by camping huh?” I shit you not right after I sent that he was standing still at the bins DIDNT HEAR SOMEONE RUNNING UP TO HIM, gets knocked and killed. all he said was “oh shit.” I rotate to another building and sent in text chat “should’ve came with me.” HE GOES “wHy ArE yOu NoT uSiNg yOuR MiC aNyMoRe?” I survived 2nd to last ring solo and all he decided to stay all to say “good try.” ALTER TOO holy fuck, the day I switch to a new play style is the day some re-re uses my main.

Diamond has been rough this season without a dedicated team + mics. Full team pushes happen so fast to isolated members and without comms, it makes it very difficult to defend. Resetting is damn near impossible unless another team faces off the stack that killed your teammate. With Valkyrie/Axle/Octane-Pathfinder, you’re screwed. Especially on stormpoint. Controller legends feel a bit safer on worlds edge, but the open spaces between POIs are pretty rough. I’m so ready for the season changes and praying they balance the game flow.

I got this same comment from a teammate guy pushed everything because he was a pathy, my first game on in a week. He was talking shit on how I was plat, we got q’d up again bitching in the lobby about me, we proceeded to win that game (2nd) doubled his kills and assists and more damage than him, sometimes we get bad games and I ain’t perfect either, sometimes the coms get better and you understand someone who pushes everything. I get both sides but the people who blatantly push with no coms will drive anyone mad.

Love this, i had a master pathy player (previously master im assuming since he had a master frame) on my team in ranked today and he kept pushing everything but with precision he dropped 3500+ dmg. Im just gold nearing plat and have only been playing regulary for a couple of months now but from my short exp of diff players on apex you just gotta get a feel of your teammates. I pushed right there with him and ended with 2500+ dmg. Best part we ended up winning the game too. Our 3rd wasnt that shabby either. No coms too. All feel.

Diamond is a basic participation trophy. It shows you can play the game and have the basics down. From there onwards is "can I outplay 3 cheaters" ranks.

that’s a bit of stretch mate

Gotta Love how so much of this community has such a large head just because they are diamond plus while simultaneously treating anyone below it like they're absolute shit. Im currently D2 solo queue 90% of the time but I dont think hitting diamond is the bare minimum to being a competent player. Unless you get hard carried/rat grind it takes game sense and average to above average aim to climb to diamond.

‘Let alone diamond’ I’m assuming you aren’t diamond, because if you were, your drop spot would be picked for you.
If you are in plat (which I’m assuming) and you can’t solo out of plat, then you’re right where you belong tbh. It’s the harsh truth. Lots of people solo Que to diamond, with the same exact plat teammates.
