The Patch Notes

Known Issues

• Teamwork and Bonus Round badges
  • We are working on a server-side patch for these ASAP.
• PlayStation sign-in bug for new players
  • There is an issue preventing some brand-new players who do not already have an EA Account linked to PSN from signing into Apex Legends. We’re working a fix for this and will push it ASAP. [Affects PlayStation only]

Kings Canyon Updates

• Thunderdome has had some small changes to loot placement, mostly around moving loose loot into bins for more visibility on where the loot is.
• The Pit has about 2x the loot it had previously.
• Repulsor has had loot bins added to the west side of the area, on top of the trapezoid buildings.
• Some loot has been added to the underground pit in the small town in Shattered Forest.
• It is now possible to ping Jump Towers and added voiceover lines will call out Jump Towers when you do. 

Quality of Life/Bug Fixes

• Decreased the delay before items show up in the menu when looting a Death Box.
• Mini Map direction will now display correctly while in the ship or skydiving.
• Improved server performance to fix some cases of rubberbanding when using items.
• Removed an exploit that allowed a squad to have more than one of the same Legend.
• Fixed an issue where players might “bounce” off your squad when breaking off during a skydive.
• Improved skydiving to help it feel more responsive and smoother.
• Thermite grenades now cause damage to doors.
• Squad summary page improvements:
  • Cursor support added.
  • Players can now mute/report players from this page.
  • Players can now report teammates that have disconnected.
• Caustic barrels can now be disabled by friendly teammates.
• Added ability to fully customize button layout for controllers. [Xbox and PS4 only]
• Added cooldown [.5 seconds] before you can reuse the last zipline you were on.
• Pathfinder’s Grapple now has a blue crosshair indicator that will appear when the Grapple is in range of objects it can connect to.
• When grappling a zipline, the trajectory will now pull players to a point below the zipline rather than above. This makes it so players are more likely to connect with the zipline instead of flying over it.
• Made improvements to how weapon reticles and optics are displayed when playing with colorblind settings.
• Added colorblind support for threat vision scope and Bloodhound’s Ultimate.
• Removed the ability for players to change game settings not intended to be modified on a client level. Our intent is to prevent exploits like removing muzzle flash, disabling lighting, and other changes that give players an unfair competitive advantage.

• New pings:
  • Players can now select “Enemy Suspected” from the ping wheel.
  • Players can now choose “yes” and “no” options from the ping wheel.
