??? why is it hard to stick together if there's crafting? I mean, if your team can't stay together because of that, it's a bad team to begin with. randoms who just run off are always a thing no matter if there's crafting... and crafting is BY FAR the least of Apex's problems. the bugs keep on stacking up and the tower of bugs has reached unimaginable heights these days.
(first up, just as a reminder for people... we are in season 9 now...)
-Valk's ultimate has multiple bugs that will basically kill you or get you killed because you will be stuck in the animation without ever moving and no way to get out of it ever again. and multiple things can cause this... I think 4 or so things have been discovered that cuase it, Revenant's ultimate for example,
-Revenant's heirloom is bugged and can fuck up his controls,
-I was unable to select my character in ranked 4 times today... I was lucky that I had my main favorited and no other player chose him or I would have been fucked,
-the weapon inspect is broken for people who use auto sprint since that feature was implemented in season 1,
-multiple pieces of geometry can spontaneously kill you... a lot of them have been that way for multiple seasons,
-multiple pieces of geometry can basically swallow items you drop for your team... again for multiple seasons,
-if you sear for a random team you will be thrown in with either no teammates or one missing one... a lot... ever since the auto fill option was introduced,
-some ammo boxes give you 40 bullets instead of 20... also there for 2 seasons now,
-if you switch game modes while one of your teammates was readied up, it can sometimes happen that you will be thrown into the last selected one you switched from... also for 3 seasons now at least,
-in Arenas, pinging that your Ultimate is ready in your inventory can sometimes spontaneously kill the whole server,
-Revenant's ultimate can disappear if placed in some spots, but not after he does the full animation and staying in place for multiple seconds, which can get you killed if you think you activated it and run out of cover,
-Octane's jumppad can glitch and fly away if other objects interact with it... also there for 6-7 seasons and new abilites just add to the list of things that cause it,
-if you throw a grenade sometimes your character will draw another one even tho you have none left, which will get you stuck in the animation for the duration and you will need to manually switch weapons to fix this, stealing sometimes valuable seconds from you during a fight,
-you can pick up a weapon, but instead of having it in your weapon slots you will have it in your backpack... which should be impossible... this bug I've first seen in season 2 I think,
-of course there are the issues with DDOSers and cheaters in PC, DDOSing also happens on console tho, which I have never seen in any other game of that size, it's apparently so easy anyone can do it,
-sometimes your rank at the start of a new season will not be registered correctly, so you can't play with other people even if they are on your rank... you first have to play a ranked match solo/with randoms... also there for at least 4 seasons now,
-if you have reload on hold you can't reload Rampart's Sheela turret... also for at least 4 months now, that's when I spotted the issue, could be older, but wasn't there when she was introduced,
-If you exit the Trident near a wall, you can glitch into it and get stuck there... this has been there since Olympus was introduced and hasn't even been attempted to be fixed by respawn. cost me a ranked mach once
these are just the issues I encountered and that I can list from the top of my mind... so this is by far not every issue the game currently has, just going on the official subreddit will reveal multiple new bugs each week/day
