Respawn Entertainment revela notas de parche de Apex Legends Emergence

Ya están aquí las notas del próximo parche que llegará a Apex Legends en su nueva temporada ‘Emergence’. Como adelanto, Respawn Entertainment nos detalla en una muy larga, casi interminable, lista de mejoras, arreglos y muchos otros detalles que pronto veremos implementados en este Battle Royale.

La primera y más grande noticia es la que ya conocemos todos: la nueva leyenda Seer. Pero no es la única, pues también se viene una actualización al mapa World's Edge, la nueva arma Rampage, Arenas Ranked, arreglos de bugs, cambios de balance y mucho más. 

En caso de que aún no conozcas a Seer, esta leyenda cuenta con un montón de pequeños drones que le ayudan a ejecutar sus habilidades. Seer puede escuchar y visualizar los latidos del corazón del enemigo cuando apunta hacia abajo, enviar una explosión retardada a través de las paredes que revela a los enemigos e incluso crea una gran esfera de micro-drones para revelar a los enemigos que se mueven rápidamente o disparan dentro de ella.

Respecto a las notas de parches… pues son muchas. Disfrútalas, supongo: 

• QUALITY OF LIFE UPDATES
  • Added a new badge: Win Streak. Can you get 2, 3, 4, or 5 wins in a row?
  • Added a “Hold On” response to enemy pings.
  • Added distinct sound effects to the Gold Backpack’s revive. VFX were added in the Chaos Theory update. This gives additional feedback when players are close to but not in line-of-sight of revives.
  • Updated the Heirloom store to give players a better view of all the items related to that item.
  • Updated Open Pack Button to show how many packs of each type are available to open. Highlighting the button shows a complete breakdown.

    • Enemies caught inside the ring of fire from Fuse's Motherlode ultimate are now revealed to Fuse's team.

    • Sniper Stocks on Marksman weapons will offer increased stability and sway reduction with slightly reduced handling bonuses (from tactical stocks)
  • L-STAR
    • Now takes Energy Magazines—Mags on the L-STAR work differently than other weapons because of its unique interaction with ammo. Instead they will allow the L-STAR to fire more shots before it overheats and allow it to cool-off its heat build up slightly faster.
