Apex has reached a new player peak, so I hope respawn doesn't throw away all the recent interest
ID: hwdbw0iID: hwdczjrFor sure! With the right tweaks, this gamemode will become practically perfect
ID: hwdct0aArenas has been dead ever since they introduced ranked. Progression and matchmaking was such a disappointment in ranked that it turned a lot of people off.
That and Arenas is just... so... boring.
ID: hwdknbsIt really feels like the control matchmaking is better too. Im not against players that 100% wreck me every time unlike BR modes
ID: hwdw2uzThere's just abit more of an element of chaos that levels the skill curve abit.
You can out-smart and win because the goal isn't kills. Backcap a flag? Way more valuable than racking up 2-3 extra kills.

Need a little tuning, but yes
ID: hwde7y8Personally I think it would better as a 5 point mode, to help break up the massive single point fights and chokeholds over B point.
For Olympus, The high ground buildings around Hammond Labs are already connected by ziplines + spaced out well enough to act as capture points, which would encourage long range fighting and use of the zipline to secure both points would have a bit of risk/reward to it.
For Barometer, I’d put a point in the middle tower with the spinning blades around it, allowing for approaches from all angles, along with having quick ways to get around by riding the blades to assault any defensive holds from multiple angles, and then put a third point out on the bridge, which would turn into sniper hell and encourage sniper dueling, whereas the other points still allow the close quarters, heavy and assault loadouts to shine.
Speaking of loadouts, adding more choices to them like an arenas style shop, though with limited materials/class restrictions, would be really nice to see, since so many people just grab assault or CQB and don’t switch the whole match.
Edit: also increase the score cap to match the extra income from 5 points vs. 3 points, so you’d have roughly 2000-2500 score cap to win.
ID: hwdft0rAgree that 3 points feels too limiting. It feels like there's no point to flanking. If it was more like
A
B1 B2 B3
C
or even just B1/B2 it would feel like there are more decisions to make.
ID: hwdf8xbThat or have 5 points, B always rotates to the three random spots after a certain time frame. A & C always stay near spawn.

It will be a permanent mode 100℅ They made too much effort for an LTM like this.
ID: hwd4z0qGood point
ID: hwd7rzwfor real. they even added custom voicelines. there’s no way this is just an LTM
ID: hwdo6g1Both Shadowfall and Shadow Royale also had custom voice lines but they weren't permanent (unfortunately, I loved Shadowfall!). I still think there is a good chance for the mode to be permanent though. Plus I am pretty sure that Control has more voice lines anyways (save for maybe Revenant as the announcer).
ID: hwdaic6Well on the flip side;
they didn’t add new Trackers, Badges or even a sub-section of your Stats page…
… like they did when Arena was released.
So for me it’s tough to say definitively if they intend to keep it
ID: hwd7tgqI’m praying so. I get tired of BR way too fast but I do enjoy Apex, so Control is super refreshing for me
ID: hwddpdkFast paced
Shield regen is well done
Gatheting points and getting better weapons is just perfec
They nailed it

I’m really enjoying it. Love the chaos that comes with two huge teams pushing and unleashing everything they’ve got.
I also got my latest memorable shitty message through XBL where a butthurt guy thought I was camping while controlling a zone. Classic!
ID: hwd81csYep, we’ll see a lot of discussion and complaints over “campers.”
Had a guy today complain about campers and it blows my mind how stupid you can be. It’s literally domination, holding points, mfs think the game mode is team deathmatch
ID: hwdc6wrFun fact: if you stand the control point closet to the enemy base for 30 seconds or so not moving at all the game announcer says, “Base camper detected.”
I was just on my phone, more afk than camping
Edit: it’s just the objective closet to the enemy base where it happens. Not all of them.
ID: hwd9229I swear its like the old cod days all over again lol
ID: hwd72crYou ever have someone message you talking trash after you shit on them and you call them a dumbass because you stomped their shit in. Then they get butthurt and report the message and end up with a suspension. I was absolutely pissed about this because of the fact that Xbox didn’t care about what the reporter was saying even tho it was worse than what I said.
ID: hwd89q8Yep, learned my lesson and now whenever someone sends a hate message, I don’t even reply and just report them. Then I get a nice laugh when Xbox notifies me of their suspension. Talk your shit, but you come into my DMs salty over me simply killing you, imma report and move on.

SKULL TOWN CONTROL MAP
ID: hwdoryrOh man skull town would be perfect. Hell fuck control give me tdm on skulltown.
-
there's just too much production value for them not to.
-
Control is so much more engaging than arena has ever been and it's also a great mode to warm up on.
-
When Control launched, it was mentioned that you can earn Control-specific badges. However, these are not in the game.
ID: hwdyty7Coming with the Anniversary event next week. Two events this season will have Control-specific badges.
ID: hwdzxl8What’s the reasoning behind releasing control as a LTM? it’s all I’ve been playing since season dropped, I would do unthinkable things to make it permanent
-
same issues as other modes. needs better matchmaking, leaving/afk penalty, better spawn protection
ID: hwdeidtleaving/afk penalty,
I've been noticing that the losing team starts losing members once people realize there's no hope of winning, which only further exacerbates the issue. IMO what they should do is if the teams become unbalanced, throw new players who just started matchmaking into an ongoing match to keep the scales even.
ID: hwdiix5Idk if I’m going crazy, but this actually happened to me? We were down one teammate, but about 10 min into the game, I look at the rankings board and see that our team is full.
-
They've gotta resolve the quitter imbalance just like they did for Arenas, with penalties. Every game of Control I've played so far has ended with me being in a 3 v 9, and it's just not fun to get shit on all day for something you can't.... control.
Those who've said "oh it's still fun even if you're outnumbered" what kind of drugs are you on? It's infuriating to just get spawn-camped and overrun the moment you're in. There's no coming back and winning in a 3v9. It's an exercise in constant death and waiting to respawn. If that's fun for you, you must also like chewing glass for breakfast. The quitters ruin it for those staying in.
-
any comment if it's intentional that you can get the 30 kill squad badge (10-10-10) ? I feel like it shouldn't be that way and I wonder if it will stay as it is or get changed?ID: hwe9k2u
bug. fix going out today. though it won't remove the badge from any player who got it in Control.
ID: hwebrk2Yet my 21 kill 4K damage control game yesterday didn’t bug out and give me those badges. What am I supposed to do, earn them legitimately??
-
But please without Ranked! Because if ranked will be added to Control, the whole Mode will get too serious and respawn will need to concentrate more on this mode and that’s not good for the BR Mode. It should be just a mode to have fun.
-
arenas should be an LTM and make this the second mode.
-
Well, if the community likes it, they [respawn] said that they will make it a permanent mode.
I would much rather them come up with completely new modes like it, and rotate them every so often. Instead of keeping the mode permanent and eventually it getting boring.
ID: hwcvi9iWhere did they say that?
ID: hwcwi59The upcoming limited-time mode Control will only be in Apex Legends for the first three weeks in the game’s 12th season, but it might end up as a permanent addition to the game depending on the reception from fans.
Turning Control into a permanent mode is “something we can explore in the future,” game designer David Swieczko said in a press conference earlier this week. “The decision is to keep it an LTM for now. It’s a very different way of playing Apex, we love it, and we’ve had a ton of fun with it internally. We really want to see what the feedback is from players and how they engage with it.”
ID: hwd8fjbThe thing about coming up with new modes is not knowing if it’ll work. With control, it’s a game mode that’s been around in FPS games forever, just called by different names. So it’d be safe to assume control will get positive feedback.
-
It's a very fun mode (especially for players like me who barely played such game modes before) and the mayhem that comes with it is nuts; also very good for playing with different loadouts/legends every once in a while
They need to add some more features tho like rewards for kill streaks, badges, penalties for leaving etc.
-
Recommended change if any devs see this: Auto full squad must be enabled for control.
-
This game needs a lot tweaks before even seeing the light for day for permanent modes.
-
Respawn doesnt take Ls.. Every mode they drop is super fun. but this one needs to stay. Its such an awesome mode for players who just want to get better at the game without the massive stresses of arena and BR
ID: hwdaojrmy thoughts exactly! It's a great place to learn gun play and legends, without the stress. You can try out camping, sniping, rushing in guns blazing, whatever..in this one mode. And if you die you just respawn and try something else.
ID: hwd9e2g“Respawn doesn’t take L’s” lol someone clearly wasn’t there for War Games when only 2 of the 6 game modes worked and got released.

It still need a lot of improvements against issues like spawncamping people leaving etc but it has a lot of potential I like this mode way more than arenas
