Apex Legends is one of the hottest new games of 2019. This is a battle royale themed game similar in concept to PUBG and Fortnite. Respawn, the developer of the game releases various updates from time to time. Apex Legends Update 1.1 is the latest update for the game.
However, this new update hasn’t gone down well with the gamers. The update has introduced more bugs than fixed them! Here’s a closer look at Apex Legends Update 1.1 and why gamers are angry with it:
Apex Legends Update 1.1: What Went Wrong
Ever since this update went live, gamers are complaining that their progress has been rolled back – and the loot that they had accumulated has also vanished. The Apex Legends Update 1.1 has upset a number of gamers who had spent a long time gathering the supplies and progressing forward into the game.
Moreover, after Apex Legends Update 1.1, users started complaining of server downtime issues as well. The game was unplayable for some time causing a lot of fans to get upset.
the silver lining
While the update was mostly criticized, at least one good thing came out of it. A much demanded feature where fans can squad up with the previous team again instead of looking up their IDs and adding them has been introduced.
Furthermore, Respawn has noticed the bugs associated with Apex Legends Update 1.1 and a patch is now being rolled out which will fix all the flaws that this update brought along.
Here are the complete patch notes:
