It took me a while to get swept up in the hype, but once I glided down to Kings Canyon for the first time, I knew Apex Legends would become an obsession. Fast-forward to February 2022, and things have come full circle.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This past week, I spent several hours playing a sizeable portion of the upcoming Season 12, otherwise known as \u201cDefiance.\u201d I queued into the new limited-time mode, Control, to partake in the overwhelming carnage and chaos that larger team-battles in Apex Legends unsurprisingly produce. I even got to try breaking through the frontlines with Mad Maggie. So, if you\u2019re itching to learn about Control\u2019s loop or whether the next playable character\u00a0will make big waves in the meta, let\u2019s get into it!<\/p>\n<div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--list-item-large-image paragraph--view-mode--default\">\n<div class=\"list-item\">\n<div class=\"field field--name-field-image field--type-image field--label-hidden gi5-field-image gi5-image field__item\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/apex-legends-season-12-preview-method-to-the-madness-1.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" alt=\"\" typeof=\"Image\" class=\"image-style-thumbnail\" \/> <\/div>\n<h2>\n<div class=\"field field--name-field-list-item-title field--type-string field--label-hidden gi5-field-list-item-title gi5-string field__item\">Control\u00a0LTM<\/div>\n<\/h2>\n<div class=\"clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-copy field--type-text-long field--label-hidden gi5-field-copy gi5-text-long field__item\">\n<p>Apex Legends is no stranger to experimentation. We\u2019ve hot-dropped into <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/2020\/12\/01\/apex-legends-winter-holiday-event-drops-today\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">numerous LTMs<\/a>, with Arenas\u2019 3v3\u00a0close-quarter fights being the most recent shift. Control adds a seemingly conventional gameplay concept to the mix; on paper, it mimics the main mechanics of Capture the Flag amplified by the freneticism of Apex Legends\u2019 slide\/wall-hopping physics. Trust me, Control is more than that. In fact, after diving into several rounds on condensed versions of Olympus\u2019 Hammond Labs and Tropic\u2019s Barometer, I\u2019d argue that Apex Legends\u2019 latest game mode is more than worthy of permanence.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>9v9 shootouts are about as chaotic as you\u2019d expect. Pre-made weapon loadouts let you hop right into the action without worrying about collecting miscellaneous loot first. An infinite batch of syringes makes healing feel like an afterthought, meaning you\u2019ll spend more time unloading an endless hail of bullets from a C.A.R. or, heaven forbid, the Rampage LMG. Hell, even shields recharge after a few seconds of taking no damage, and if you die, all you have to do is respawn and hop back into the action. Ultimately, Control\u2019s various features emphasize constant rotations instead of hunkering down, which is a nice change of pace from the more drawn-out matches of classic battle royale scenarios.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>My favorite moments came from unanticipated team plays and sensory overload-centric engagements. Narrow tunnels become bombastic death pits when players drop their tactical abilities and ultimates haphazardly. Sure, there are three posts to contest, but the point of interest at the center of Control\u2019s maps draws the most attention. There\u2019s no third-partying or any other emergent qualities of battle royale in this mode, so organizing pushes or long flanks with your squad is your best bet at turning the tides.\u00a0If Respawn decides to implement Control fully, it\u2019ll be fun to see how the competitive aspect of Apex Legends evolves.\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--list-item-large-image paragraph--view-mode--default\">\n<div class=\"list-item\">\n<div class=\"field field--name-field-image field--type-image field--label-hidden gi5-field-image gi5-image field__item\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/apex-legends-season-12-preview-method-to-the-madness-2.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" alt=\"\" typeof=\"Image\" class=\"image-style-thumbnail\" \/> <\/div>\n<h2>\n<div class=\"field field--name-field-list-item-title field--type-string field--label-hidden gi5-field-list-item-title gi5-string field__item\">Mad Maggie<\/div>\n<\/h2>\n<div class=\"clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-copy field--type-text-long field--label-hidden gi5-field-copy gi5-text-long field__item\">\n<p><span><span>Yes, Control is exhilarating but let&#8217;s be honest, you&#8217;re here to learn about <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/2022\/01\/24\/apex-legends-mad-maggie-revealed-as-new-legend-alongside-new-limited-time-mode\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Mad Maggie<\/a>. This highly-anticipated Maori freedom fighter was first revealed in Fuse&#8217;s origin trailer in Season 8. Maggie is considered a villain by the other Apex combatants, but her dedication to the emancipation of her home planet, Salvo, influences her brutal extremism. It&#8217;s no surprise that Maggie doesn&#8217;t work well with others, which is reflected in her ability kit (for the most part).\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>Maggie&#8217;s passive, &#8220;Warlords Ire,&#8221; lets her highlight enemies she&#8217;s damaged. Moreover, if Maggie wields a shotgun, she has no speed penalty, which should allow her to chase and pick off her prey effectively. Her tactical, &#8220;Riot Drill,&#8221; flings a fiery breaching charge on any surface of her choosing. Players that might be camping (or healing) on the other side of those objects take burst damage and, if they don&#8217;t move in time, will likely burn to a crisp. Finally, Maggie&#8217;s ultimate, &#8220;Wrecking Ball,&#8221; casts \u2013 you guessed it! \u2013 a massive wrecking ball at enemies that bounces off any obstruction in its path. Maggie&#8217;s squad gets a frightening speed boost while nearby the ball and adversaries that make contact with it will be lucky if they can crawl away from the ensuing explosion. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>I enjoyed using Maggie&#8217;s abilities to force teams out of position. Her built-in scanner might not be as powerful as Crypto&#8217;s surveillance drone or Bloodhound&#8217;s tracker, but Maggie&#8217;s hastening passive makes her the perfect scout for any aggressive squadron. I worry that the speed boosts might make close-quarter bouts unfair, so I&#8217;d suggest facing Maggie in open areas, where her team might be forced to flee from focus fire. From a competitive standpoint, I expect to see Maggie picked in all tiers of play. However, duelists that can handily win their 1v1s will find the most value in their legend selection.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph paragraph--type--list-item-large-image paragraph--view-mode--default\">\n<div class=\"list-item\">\n<div class=\"field field--name-field-image field--type-image field--label-hidden gi5-field-image gi5-image field__item\"> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/apex-legends-season-12-preview-method-to-the-madness-3.jpg\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" alt=\"\" typeof=\"Image\" class=\"image-style-thumbnail\" \/> <\/div>\n<h2>\n<div class=\"field field--name-field-list-item-title field--type-string field--label-hidden gi5-field-list-item-title gi5-string field__item\">Sabotaged Olympus<\/div>\n<\/h2>\n<div class=\"clearfix text-formatted field field--name-field-copy field--type-text-long field--label-hidden gi5-field-copy gi5-text-long field__item\">\n<p><span><span>Like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/preview\/2021\/04\/26\/apex-legends-season-9-preview-living-on-cloud-nine\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Season 9<\/a>, we\u2019re returning to the verdant pastures and technological wonders of Olympus. I didn\u2019t get a chance to see any of the map\u2019s geographical changes first-hand. Still, according to Respawn devs, the lore goes as follows:\u00a0\u201cA threat has hacked into Olympus\u2019 Phase Runner, sending the floating city crashing down and creating destabilization across the city. In this malfunctioning Olympus, new terrains will be exposed containing more POIs than ever before.\u201d New ziplines allow players to get across long distances quickly, and some missing redeploy balloons should encourage them to explore each original\u00a0location of their own accord.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><span><span>And when you get a second to catch your breath in between navigating Olympus\u2019 treacherous terrain, you might want to take note of the loot pool updates below:<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span><span>My beloved Alternator is thankfully no longer a supply drop weapon, and Disruptor Rounds have been miraculously removed from the game. The Volt SMG will replace the Alternator, boosted by an extra DPS point and two more bullets in its magazine. Hammerpoint Rounds are back and compatible with the RE-45, so expect to see players running around with the once-lackluster pistol as a secondary; I most certainly will be! A new hop-up called the \u201cKinetic Feeder\u201d can be equipped to the Peacekeeper and Triple Take. The fascinating attachment autoloads rounds when you slide and speeds up choke-time for both weapons. Shattercaps will now apply its shotgun blast to hipfire allowing 30-30 Repeater\/Bocek Bow fanatics to swap firing modes seamlessly. Finally, in a surprise announcement, the Flatline and Longbow will be craftable rifles for the entirety of the season. That\u2019s right, you won\u2019t find them laying anywhere on Olympus, Kings Canyon, or Stormpoint (World\u2019s Edge will be sitting out this season).\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><p>Respawn also plans to introduce small legend reworks. Caustic&#8217;s traps can be destroyed after detonation, and Crypto&#8217;s drone HUD will provide more crucial information to help players make informed decisions. In any case, Apex Legends Season 12 Defiance looks to spice up this year&#8217;s <a href=\"<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/2021\/02\/04\/apex-legends-announces-support-for-blm-with-new-playercard-badge-reveals-upcoming&#038;quot\">https:\/\/www.gameinformer.com\/2021\/02\/04\/apex-legends-announces-support-\u2026<\/a>; target=&#8221;_blank&#8221;>anniversary<\/a> with ambitious gameplay tweaks and a new large-scale, albeit controlled, game mode.
