I just did the math, the whole event is 16,600 apex coins. (100+300+500+500+500+500 +700+700+700+700+700 +700+1,000+1,000+1,000 +1,000+1,000+1,000+1,000 +1,000+1,000+1,000=16,600) In case you're Mr. Moneybags and need to know how much to spend on the game, you're welcome. I'm definitely not going to, this is ridiculous.
You know your games in a bad spot when a content creator that can use it as a tax write off still won’t buy your scummy recolor and skins that no one wants. Rip apex
I've seen 2 bigger content creators buy it. And im so happy you didn't. I know that at least at least some of the apex community can change and i feel like you are one of the bigger contributers who could help make it happen
@@tristanhuistianthere was a boycott back in august of 2022.. it was for cross prog, 120fps update(neither were in the game back then), cheaters,monetization over game fixes… it def did not work

The worst part about recolors is that it probably takes one dev maybe a couple hours to apply a different color scheme to an old skin. And there’s literally making millions off of it.
Because “we” the players like them. This game is free to play. You guys and the battle pass guys are the minority. It’s simple if you don’t want it then don’t buy it. Just stfu
Yep, it's not a difficult process at all, Garret shown it's possible to recolor a legendary skin model in about a minute, adding minor details and applying moving particle effects makes it an hour at max.
Honestly, they’re probably just going to put it in the reactive shop sometime in the future, seeing as they don’t care about event/battlepass exclusivity anymore
Milestone events were the worst addition. - Remove Milestone events - Revert Battle Pass - Remove cheaters - Fix audio and bugs already - Fix matchmaking Also, why do items need to be so expensive? They are literally setting prices on arbitrary items. I do not see what "market" they are competing in here. I don't think they realize how many more sales they would make with cheaper, fairer prices.
Appreciate your honesty. I've been away from the game for a while and it saddens me to hear about this type of thing happening after we got them to apologise and change these events after the Iron crown event outrage now they're bringing back the things we had an issue with.
Thank you, you are the only Utuber ive seen so far thts speaking some sense jus becuz they "May" revert battlepass changes dont spend money pls until we have confimation and word directly from Respawn/EA
I agree with this, apex WAS the best battle royal even shooter for a long time still is in my opinion, the mixture between team play and making plays that give your squad an advantage is what kept players hooked on this game but they've become more and more greedy in my honest opinion they're trying to cash out, they know the game is dying and on life support and unfortunately rather than trying to fix the issues they would rather cash out (I hope I'm wrong as I used to love this game several seasons ago)
I really love it that you made a video about it, more people will have the awareness to not spend money on the game, hopefully the apex community can keep their words this time.
It doesnt matter how many people wont buy it since there is clearly enough whales out there that do buy these skins every single time! They will also not revert the battlepass changes! Even if they were to revert the changes they lost me as player with more than 4000 hours in the game and many other players already! What also doesnt help is that my account is literally missing a full set of heirloom shards since they had their big hickup last season and I lost like 30k crafting materials and all the EA support said was: Nah man your account is fine. all good. Its just embarrassing!
I appreciate that they already made slight changes to the event system but I'd prefer if these Milestone events weren't happening at all. I sadly am the kind of person these gambling mechanics try to target, so I just don't touch them at all lol.
“Milestone” events are an insult to intelligence. There’s no milestone achieved for actually playing the game and earning the items, it’s just a whale tracker
@@boratwilson9916 im doing the same just grinding kills. He probably has tons of skins always 😂 I have 3 years or 4 years worth of crafting and buying skins im good
I feel the same way... ...but, I have been DYING to get my hands on a Rampart skydive emote (I'm her main), and they FINALLY put one in. AND AT THE WORST TIME! I shall cleanse my hands after this sin. Also, Merch you should totally do another stream! I miss those 🥺
I’m glad they gave us the option to purchase the legendary skins separately. The only thing I bought from this event was 1800 coins on wraiths legendary skin. Imma wraith main and I own every single skin she has in game so this one just completes my collection even more. As far as the rest of the event goes I will not be purchasing it and I hope the majority of the community does the same. Speaking with our wallets is the only way we’ll see any kind of change for the better.
Not buying a single thing from this cash grab event. This type of gambling loot crap should honestly be illegal in video games. First event where I can honestly say im not giving them a single penny. Same goes for the next BP
So I opened one pack that I got free from the event points, and got the havoc skin!!?? Did they change the probabilities? Something seems fishy about that
i was wondering that too. i'm a mirage main and have his heirloom but i don't really like the skin :[ but it would be so cool if he had an Iron Man inspired skin that did that.
There's 3 things I will need EA to start adding to every event before I start purchasing them, - Trackers (especially because their becoming universal) - Skydive emotes and none of that flip bs (lessen the amount of stickers and holosprays) - universal banners only (if all trackers are going to be universal, why can't banners be too)
it's frustrating because we're essentially haggling as a collective, but some people don't know how to haggle, so these skins that are worth less than 10 dollars are now being sold for over a hundred.
I was planning on quitting this season and halfway thru my battlepass the new battlepass system next season was announced so i immediately stopped playing and i will probably drop the game for good. Hope that people who stays wont get scammed by events and greedy shenannigans EA is making APEX team do.
One thing that ive heard is that the Asian market loves Gacha mechanics. With Apex Legends being huge in Asia maybe this why they keep leaning towards this type of events. It be would interesting to find more info on this.
China has proposed a lot of laws recently that prevent gambling boxes and daily log in bonuses, if they actually go through we might see a lot of changes in western games trying to break into that market.
Was ich mich die ganze Zeit Frage... Warum werden seit langen Landungsschiffe und Fähren ins Ziel genommen und nicht die Brücke selbst? Meine einzige Erklärung wäre jetzt das man einen kompletten Zusammenbruch verursachen möchte, wenn die Brücke dann am Ende hops genommen wird.
TBF other than newcastle u can buy all stand alone character skins. no bundles with any weapon skins but at least it is possible to get the 1 skin you wanted
I quit playing when the original announcement happened, I don’t plan on ever playing again unless they actually start addressing the core issues with the game.
I got it but with my 100 free apex coins, thought if the game is gonna die might as well use up the coins and then boom got the reactivate first pack 🤯
Someone adamantly told me that Rev has 2 Different Scythes not just the same one recolored. And his claim for this was due to some detailed styling on the handle 😅. That's a recolor my boy!
@@Nessie-0 every time there’s an event he’s always “paid to play” the new events, look at his Apex event videos most of them he starts off by saying “thanks EA for sponsoring this video” or “thanks EA for giving me access to season ( # )”. can’t trust someone who says no to the villain but gets payed behind closed doors. Dudes a clown 100% goofy🤡
I ain’t buying either but I got lucky and got the Havoc skin with the free pack from the challenges. Did not even realize it as it opened itself while I was looking at the event and got queued into a game right away. Came out to find it on my locker.
It do be a known fact that content creators do and still will complain about these BP changes and making videos but will then expose themselves by buying the battlepass/collection event. My question is... will thegamingmerchant be buying the battlepass come next season?
Bc i live in Belgium the only way to get the items is by buying them individually. I hear so many people being mad or frustrated That they need to gamble but i dont have That problem so i cant relate
Yeah… I got the Havoc in my one free pack. I also decided to buy the Caustic skin because I like it, but I haven’t touched the event after that, so no one kill me please.
I hate that ea is so greedy like they are soo rich already and they feel generous when they give out a free blue skin who no one wants, so if they fix that and fix cheaters, matchmaking and better content then this event. then I believe they can make a comeback. Tbh
Sadly streamers are the biggest obstacle at hindering the movement of boycotting EA’s cash grabs, TonyRomero literally bought it even though he asked his stream and it was a very solid no from chat…
Also, although I agree game modes are good this season, it’s very low effort and copy and paste. Every game mode to this point is either “bigger or smaller” than normal, and respawn can reuse mechanics they already have and just tweak it for these new modes. There is nothing new or innovative like three strikes, solo is just -1 and they copy and paste the respawn and litter weapon system from like tdm. It’s very not innovative and copy and paste.
content creators have already been buying it 👍🏻 first game on i saw multiple people with the skins. people don't care, it's how it will always be unfortunately
Apex has got to have some of the most overpriced cosmetics. I remember buying DLC maps and guns for like £8 now it’s £160 or more for a fancy melee weapon
I've been playing for years apex and finally managed to save 900 credits. And next battle pass I was planning on getting it with the credits saved. I'm so sad man :(
I haven't spent a dime since I heard about the BP changes. Don't get me wrong I'm willing to pay a little more for a better battle pass it's the fact that I can't use my coins to buy it and the price. The price would be worth paying if they would fix the servers and get a hold of the cheater situation but they haven't fixed any of the major issues
I think buying skins plays a part in why it’s so hard to make a good game these days. If you can just make your money off skins, then why would you try that hard to make a good game?
I have been voting with my wallet. Since the very beginning. But a few whales are voting the other way, and they're ensuring nothing in the store will ever be affordable for the average player
I got the Havoc skin in the first free box I opened, Just one box, free box, no more money to them, no gambling, no nothing. I don't have even single bit of motivation to boot up the game, this is maybe my end with apex.
If you don’t buy this collection event or the next one after that, it’s not an act of protest it’s a sign they need to shut the game down. Think about it, if EA starts losing money from apex legends and it stops being their cash cow why would they keep the studio or the game alive? A company rated worst in the United States 2 times already you really think they won’t cut this loss?
I honestly don’t care about the “monetization team” keeping their jobs when the “work” they do is finding predatory ways to manipulate players into spending. It’s gross, and remember, mtx DO NOT actually support developers. That’s quite literally a lie that even developers have stated is a lie.
If they did, it’d be front and center more often when these companies face controversy over their monetization. That would be more aggressively stated by the actual workers at these companies as something that companies NEED to do now. But instead what we hear is a lot of developers outright call them long term terrible ideas and greed fueled desires by executives and shareholders (the people who actually get a majority of this cash) They also wouldn’t do things, like what Tekken and Crash Team Racing did, and sneak them into the game after initial sales and positive reviews coverage, and lie about how there wouldn’t be mtx, if they were simply done just to “support the developers”
One strange things is the Big TDM mode is full of cheater then normal mixtape. It's like more than 70% in the room are cheating. (PS. I'm in SG server. JP server are more worst cheating situation in mixtape than SG server.)
I don't get why the devs are "experimenting" when they have the whole community telling them what they want... its upsetting to see how they'd rather shoot their shots in the dark rather than listening to the people who are telling them what they want. Like do what Minecraft does and put out votes or something like that!!!
Im not spending another cent on this game, I already have more than enough cosmetics and they are just burning community sentiment to the ground with these scummy monetization practices. Honestly, im even leaning pretty heavily in the direction of dropping the game entirely

I got the Havoc skin in the first free box I opened, Just one box, free box, no more money to them, no gambling, no nothing. I don't have even single bit of motivation to boot up the game, this is maybe my end with apex.
If you don’t buy this collection event or the next one after that, it’s not an act of protest it’s a sign they need to shut the game down.
Think about it, if EA starts losing money from apex legends and it stops being their cash cow why would they keep the studio or the game alive?
A company rated worst in the United States 2 times already you really think they won’t cut this loss?
They’re trying to find the sweet spot between the absolute least amount of work for the most returns
I honestly don’t care about the “monetization team” keeping their jobs when the “work” they do is finding predatory ways to manipulate players into spending. It’s gross, and remember, mtx DO NOT actually support developers. That’s quite literally a lie that even developers have stated is a lie.
If they did, it’d be front and center more often when these companies face controversy over their monetization. That would be more aggressively stated by the actual workers at these companies as something that companies NEED to do now. But instead what we hear is a lot of developers outright call them long term terrible ideas and greed fueled desires by executives and shareholders (the people who actually get a majority of this cash) They also wouldn’t do things, like what Tekken and Crash Team Racing did, and sneak them into the game after initial sales and positive reviews coverage, and lie about how there wouldn’t be mtx, if they were simply done just to “support the developers”
I played with my cousin and he bought some packs with the crafting materials he’d saved up and got the havoc skin first pack, for free. Kind wild
One strange things is the Big TDM mode is full of cheater then normal mixtape. It's like more than 70% in the room are cheating. (PS. I'm in SG server. JP server are more worst cheating situation in mixtape than SG server.)
I don't get why the devs are "experimenting" when they have the whole community telling them what they want... its upsetting to see how they'd rather shoot their shots in the dark rather than listening to the people who are telling them what they want. Like do what Minecraft does and put out votes or something like that!!!
Dropped Apex a while ago. Played since season zero and honestly everything about this game has just became unbearable and scummy.
I bought only 1 pack because a $7 pack for $1 is a steal when I already have the currency
Im not spending another cent on this game, I already have more than enough cosmetics and they are just burning community sentiment to the ground with these scummy monetization practices.
Honestly, im even leaning pretty heavily in the direction of dropping the game entirely
