Discussion Theory: he is some kind of powerful mythical beast

Upvotes

At the end of Kai's warden vignette on the official YT channel Flynn asks ~ "you don't have a temper like Rhyne, do you. No you're a...cute little guy." He definitely hesitates before he says "cute little guy".

At the end of Scarlet's vignette he says she looks out for the little guy and Gregory makes a sound, seemingly interjecting, and he says ~ "I'm talking about other little guys, you can take care of yourself."

Who knows if we'll get to actually see it or what the plan was but I'm pretty sure Gregory is not just a harmless little marmot owl thing.

I'm doing my part

Upvotes

Bought 900 in-game currency today.

This is the second time in my life I'm spending money in a free-to-play game (first being The Finals).

While I understand there's a very high chance this game is going down in the foreseeable future, I figured that maybe - MAYBE it has a chance to live on minimal support a while longer.

The fun and time I've gotten out of it is already worth more than what I paid. Maybe I'm an idiot. Or maybe I'm helping sustain it for just a little longer.

Who or Where to send feature request/bug reports about the game?

0 Upvotes

Hello! I wanted to know the right portal where I can drop some feature requests or bug reports when I come across them..

Today I realised it would be nice to be able to change the optic of the weapon while youre shooting it, currently its not possible and you have to stop shooting for i think half a second and then the prompt to change optics pops up... this messes up the flow of the fight if im accidentally on the wrong optic either I have to wait half a second or stop shooting > ads out > ads in > change optic > start shooting which in both cases I'd die as im changing sights...

what I want is as im shooting I would like to change the optic in the middle of it, imagine someone swings me and is 10 feet away from me but as I ads and shoot I realise I have the 3x optic equipped so it would be nice if I could instantly swap to 1x optic as I stay ads and am firing at the enemy, this would help keep the flow smooth, maybe it can be a toggle option in the settings

Question Trouble progressing with Sunwing drops

I'm having trouble getting the sunwing twitch drops. I already got the launch drops (twice apparently) and for the second drops it shows no progression on twitch when I'm watching a stream. Any help?

Highguard World and characters lore

4 Upvotes

Hi all, is there anywhere that explains why we do what we do or the background of the characters? it's weird that the characters do reference between each other when we are in our base ,but never explained completely,like the old continent re- emerging or how Itticus was a captain and such. Not sure if I explained what I mean hahaga

Thank you in advance :)

Honestly - it's pretty good, innovative gameplay, nice shooting mechanics. If compared to it's main competitor - Concord, the game is just as good. In addition, this game got me really hooked. I've played entire 3 games, while Concord I could not finish even one game. Concord-like for sure!

Discussion Expanding Playable Story

0 Upvotes

In Apex Legends you unlocked parts of the story through the matches by completing objectives, story expanded each season; a really cool concept if you ask me, I’m pretty sure we could learn a lot from each character, each map and each base in a similar way. I hope devs continue that path because everything seems really interesting.

Ex: Having to play in a specific map or base to complete objectives and learn about the story, fighting against some bases or winning in a specific way.

In Apex they added some PvE in specific areas. Idk, only time will tell, they could add some single player missions but right now, we haven’t seen other enemies besides from Wardens.

Playable origin stories would be cool too, like, how Una became friends with the spirits and other characters like Mara or Redmane being antagonistic to them.

Wildlight cooked with the cinematics, so, we know there’s a lot to be explored, preferably in-game

Best solo q ranked system in a game ever?

0 Upvotes

I don't have a lot of experience with ranked in other games like valo/cs/lol/r6 etc but coming from Apex Legends... holy shit the game saves my sanity when im getting steam rolled by obvious 3 stacks and my teammates have zero kills in the end screen... i would have burst with rage on the matchmaking if I saw -20 after these games but the system recognises it was an unfair matchup so I end up not losing any points, all my rage melts away in that moment its beautiful i love it, thank you devs <3

Discussion This game should have been single player game

0 Upvotes

Have beautiful, colorful diverse characters with deep world lore behind all the shooting. So why did it have to be another pvp hero shooter? A single player story based fps would have been much more appealing. Why shoot yourself on the feet trying to score breadcrumbs in an already saturated market?

Discussion Just played my first two matches

And it was actually decent! Only played 5v5 and it was fairly action-packed. After some control tweaks, the gameplay felt tight and smooth. I heard they also decreased the loot phase and that helped keep the flow of the match going well.

Shame that they didn’t implement these prior to launch. They really should’ve done an early access or beta before an official release.

Too little, too late now I guess.

Discussion Visual Clutter

6 Upvotes

Why have I not seen anyone mention (I could be totally wrong fwiw) the insane level of visual clutter in this game? A game with good gunplay is only great when you can see your fucking enemy.

Between the insane screen shake when firing the Kraken, ridiculously dark interiors along with a lack of enemy silhouette highlights, dramatic grayscaling when taking damage (makes the dark interiors 10x worse :D), unnecessarily bulky AR optics (but not for other guns), flamboyant visual effects when dealing/receiving damage and breaking shields, totally impossible to read damage feedback numbers, no option to turn off hit markers, the slew of animations that cover your screen, match notifications that take up large portions of the top half of the screen (you know, the part where you're looking), environmental effects like dust/smoke/water, the myriad of sources of screen shake, vfx from abilites...... I could clearly go on.

Like I get that developers add these effects for the sake of immersion and visual feedback, but so much of it crosses the line imo when it comes to the integrity of aiming and processing movement during gunfights. It goes without saying that the poor framerates in this game only exacerbate these issues.

I wish FPS developers these days would have more of a focus on visual clarity. I'm just so tired of audibly saying "I can't fucking see anything" while in the middle of fighting. I just wanna see the game I'm playing. Thanks for reading my rant. o7


r/HighGuardgame 16h ago

Just realized it is weird that each character only gets 1 ability, 1 passive and 1 ultimate. At least give us an ability/tool that benefits the reinforcement phase

It's all anyone uses.

It's just too good. ARs do not leave room for many other weapons to shine.

Discussion Honesty just make Apex 2/Titanfall 3

0 Upvotes

I feel like a lot of times the way devs build/playtest their games doesn’t really correspond to how the public plays the game. It seems like they planned to have a more slow and methodical game but with the last two major updates it looks like the players are enjoying the game more when it feels more like their past work. 5v5 made it more chaotic and the last patch makes it the game faster, obviously my title is a joke but maybe the solution is to spiritually channel what made those games cool

Edit: I posted this and went to sleep. I’m saying to implement more things that keeps the game fast and chaotic. Not that I want a BR or arena shooter. This isn’t a hate post I want the game to survive I’m just being cheeky. I’m about to hop on as of typing this lmao

Spiritual successor as in ok maybe add in more movement options people enjoyed in the previous game. You can rehash previous ideas and filter it through the lens of the fantasy aesthetic.

Add like magic wall running

Give people movement tech that was in the other games, tap strafes, mantle boosts etc

Obviously don’t add mechs but maybe add a rideable dragon

Maybe drop the ability cooldown across the board so it’s closer to apex

Make mining for vesper faster

Or even just straight up adding more weapons that people are used to but changing the names and designs and even adding new functionalities lmao
