It isn’t all the time simple coming to grips with each change Apex Legends maps get after a makeover, and Storm Level is not any exception in season 19. As one participant hilariously proved, generally it may be one thing so simple as a window will be your downfall.
In a clip posted to Reddit, person ThePrayingManis confirmed simply how one such tragedy can play out when going through off in opposition to an opposing duo within the new Pylon POI added this season. Within the clip, each they and the enemy Conduit are unaware the window they’re staring one another down by means of is totally open, and never a pane of unbreakable glass. It’s a spell that’s solely damaged when, in an try and climb up the wall and onto the roof, ThePrayingManis as a substitute falls straight by means of the window part and into the jaws of each enemy gamers.
It’s a ache many gamers can relate to. Apex has a historical past of getting comparable wanting buildings scattered all through a map, however every with its personal distinctive mixture of each glass-filled and empty home windows. Storm Level’s Pylon POI is a very complicated case of this as some sections of the advanced—much like the one featured within the clip—do characteristic unbreakable glass, so it’s no marvel each gamers within the clip didn’t acknowledge that this window was totally different.
Even with the ability of season 19’s care package Wingman of their arms, ThePrayingManis might do little to combat again in opposition to the Catalyst and Conduit inside. All they might do was yell a determined “this isn’t a window!” to their teammate earlier than getting tragically taken to the demise display screen in an anti-climactic finish to their match. Not less than they’ll take some consolation in the truth that the Conduit was clearly simply as stunned as they have been, provided that she was emoting straight within the line of fireside seconds earlier than they each found that line of fireside existed in any respect.
As one comment identified, regardless of how good of fun this second generated, Apex ought to “make it extra clear” when one thing is an precise window or not. “I’ve tried to leap by means of gaps to try to escape the ring solely to smack right into a window like a fowl,” they lamented.
Another provided them some solace, recounting their very own unlucky expertise with the “window” as they tried to make use of a defend cell straight in entrance of an enemy on the opposite facet: “I took a Peacekeeper shot to the face.”
