72,632 'Abrumadoramente negativo’ revisa más tarde, EA retrocede controvertidos cambios en el pase de batalla de Apex Legends: “has hablado, y hemos escuchado”

Earlier this month, EA and Respawn announced some big changes to the Apex Legends battle pass that quickly met with a loud, definitive pushback from players. Ahora, they’re walking back the most controversial parts of the change.

“has hablado, y hemos escuchado,” the devs say in a message on social media. “With the release of Season 22 we will restore the ability to get the Premium Battle Pass for 950 Apex Coins. We recognize that we could have handled the Battle Pass changes better – that’s on us. It’s our intention to improve the overall value and experience across our Battle Pass offerings.”

You’ve historically been able to use Apex Coins to purchase battle passes, which would then – assuming you played enough – allow you to earn enough Apex Coins to purchase the next season’s battle pass. When these changes were first announced, battle passes were set to go to cash-only purchases, removing the ability to earn them in-game. Players quickly made their displeasure known, dropping 72,632 negative reviews on the Apex Legends página de vapor since the news was announced.

We’re going back to Apex Coins for the standard battle pass, but some of the changes are still going forward. There are still set to be two battle passes per season, so you’ll be reupping twice as often. There are also new cash-only Ultimate ($9.99) and Ultimate+ ($19.99) that come with additional rewards. An extensive infographic purports to lay out all the details, but many fans remain confused about whether the base battle passes still include reactive skins.

“Avanzando, we recognize that we need to be more timely, transparent, and consistent in our communications with you,” the devs add. “Your priorities are our priorities: cheaters, game stability, and quality of life updates are top of mind. We need to get better and it’s why we’re acknowledging them here. As a next step, there are a number of improvements and game stability bug fixes coming in Season 22 that will be outlined in the Patch Notes dropping on August 5, 2024.”
