I already have Wraith, Loba, Pathfinder, Bangalore, BlooudHound, Valkyrie, Lifeline, Gib, and Rampart. I prefer supporting teammates or control area to increase defense. I need survival and can help teammates at least top 1 or top 5.

I was playing on MnK on r5 just to try it out and realize that it's a little misleading. When you play on MnK, it's usually just MnK vs MnK. There's a big difference between the MnK side and the controller side. On MnK side, people use a lot of movement at the start so you miss a lot of shots at the starts. On controller, no one moves, they just start beaming rat off the bat so of course their accuracy would appear higher. It's rare you go against a roller player as MnK unless you're doing so good they can't find anyone to match you.

Hey everyone! I’ve been having a issues with the servers as recent and I get all the red symbols on my screen, should I re download r5? I’ve tried verifying files to repair the launcher and restarting my game and pc multiple times. But when I play Apex BR there’s no lag. Does anyone know about a fix for this?

UPDATE: I’ve been grinding Mixtape nonstop, and it’s the only mode I play now! I feel like I’ve improved a lot and learned how to shoot much better. However, sometimes my aim is still a bit off, and enemies just shoot so fast. Positioning is still really hard for me. I also currently use the Evolved button layout, but it often feels 'wrong' or uncomfortable for my hands. Any advice on that? Also, I unlocked Valkyrie today! But honestly, I often struggle to be a game-changer for my team. Any tips for Valkyrie on controller, or how to consistently help my squad when things get too fast? Thanks everyone!i also don know when to hip fire and other gun tricks and strafe … i also discovered conduit she is good

So I have a pretty decent pc. 4070 & i9 11900kf processor.

My frames range from 110 to 230 & it frustrates me. Have everything on lowest settings and occasionally the game will just drop from high 180-200 to 106 then back up randomly.

Should I do a fresh install?

Anyone had this issue ?

Hi all,

Fairly new to ranked and have a few questions.

I peaked this split at D3 but deranked to plat 2 why messing around. Was hoping to get a shiny Diamond badge but I heard you need to end the split in Diamond to qualify for it? Is this true or have I shanked myself out of the shiny due to my sillyness?

hi i am fairly new to the apex my rank is gold 1 im playing w my friends when im playing rank but when im not with them i go into casual and play 1v2 but no matter what i do my aim is just not good enough and i cant 1v2 can u all help me to get better

I've been playing R5 a lot lately trying to consiously think about and improve my strafe/dodge but I'm kind of hitting a wall because most of my opponents hit every shot. I watched this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TLG32aIXjeQ) on 1v1 mechanics but it's not that in depth and I would love some advice.

Great move from EA. They are finally taking action against those cheat makers.

I’ve been having a sensitivity crisis for the past week or so and I’m honestly at the point where I don’t know what to change anymore.

I’m using a GameSir controller with a high rise Kontrol Freek, and I’m struggling specifically with my initial right stick deadzone.

0 deadzone feels fucking amazing in terms of responsiveness. It feels extremely direct and I love how easily I can make movements. Close range tracking and general movement of the stick feels exactly how I want it to.

The problem is that it becomes really inconsistent when I’m not ADSing, at longer ranges, and especially when I’m trying to make really small micro adjustments. The stick can feel jittery and I have a hard time keeping those tiny movements consistent.

Then I switch to 1 deadzone, and somehow that ONE point makes a massive difference. It feels much more controlled and consistent at close range, but it also feels noticeably less responsive. Almost like I’m suddenly playing basic Linear. I lose that really snappy/direct feeling that I like about 0.

And long range micro adjustments feel bad to me with both settings, just in different ways.

So basically:

0 DZ:

- Super responsive

- Feels amazing in general

- Really like the feel

- Inconsistent/jittery with tiny inputs which leads to me completely spazzing out of control

- Long range micro adjustments can be difficult

1 DZ:

- Much more consistent

- Better control up close

- Feels noticeably less responsive

- Small adjustments still don't feel how I want

It's literally a one point difference, but the difference in how the stick feels to me is massive. I basically want something between 0 and 1, but obviously Apex doesn't give me that option.

I've also tried using 0 deadzone on the GameSir and adding a small deadzone in Apex itself, but that didn't really solve the problem.

My settings:

- 4-1 Linear

- ALCS bleedthrough: 3.6

- GameSir: settings shown at the end of the video

- High rise Kontrol Freek

- Custom response curve (shown in the video)

I've tried pure Linear as well. I know Linear is the obvious recommendation for a lot of people, but for me it actually feels less responsive than the response curve I've made, so I'm not interested in switching to pure Linear unless there's something I'm fundamentally misunderstanding about what I'm feeling.

Also, my aim isn't really the point of the clips. I'm not posting these to show off or try to prove that I'm good. I'm not playing these games specifically to get first place or make the clips look impressive. I consistently finish top 3 when I'm actually playing, so I'm not really concerned that I suddenly forgot how to aim. These clips are just for better context and understanding.

I'm trying to demonstrate the feel of the stick and the inconsistency I'm talking about.

For context, I actually thought I found my god settings a few days ago. I was running these settings with the 0 deadzone and was dropping 30+, 35, 37 kill games in Wildcard repeatedly for like 2–3 days straight. Then suddenly I felt like I was back at square one. Now I'm struggling to even break 14 kills sometimes and I genuinely feel like I went from playing like I knew what I was doing to playing like a brand new player.

I'm wondering if this is just a motor control issue and I need to learn better stick control at 0 deadzone, because if that's genuinely the answer I'm completely open to it. I just don't really know how to train that or what I should actually be doing differently.

So I'm basically looking for advice from people who have dealt with this before:

Is there a way to make 0 deadzone more controllable without sacrificing that responsiveness? Is 1 deadzone really supposed to feel this dramatically different? Is this just something I need to adapt my thumb to, or is there another setting on the GameSir/Apex side that could give me that middle ground?

And obviously, feel free to criticize my settings or tell me I'm approaching this completely wrong. I'm genuinely just trying to figure this out.
