Apex Legends: 10 Things You Didn't Know About The Toxic One, Caustic

It would make sense that a man who spends years experimenting with dangerous chemicals and toxins could develop a terminal disease. Often the equipment used to protect them is found to not be 100% effective in studies in the years that follow. Can a man cheat death twice in his l

In the last few rings of the game, it’s especially important to keep an eye on the location of each upcoming circle. Players who know the map well can anticipate endgame situations that provide opportunities for both high-ground and low-ground positioning. Players who want to win should aim to do everything they can to take out their opponents before this happens, even if this means pushing the fight from a lower le

Perhaps there’s no real better to play as these characters except for the fact that they’re funny as a pair. One of Mirage’s voice lines has him saying, "I hope I don’t have to play with that smiling robot," before he says he’s just kidding. This is an obvious reference to Pathfinder and seems to imply they're a sort of default frenemy duo. These characters are comic relief, and their pairing seems to be conducive to a buddy comedy a la Harry and Lloyd from Dumb and Dumb

The lab was constantly experimenting trying to come up with stronger and more efficient formulas to be the most effective. This constant state of experimentation and iteration was likely the cause of Caustic's mental sh

Players have mixed feelings about Bangalore’s smoke tactical ability. Sure, it blocks enemies’ visibility as a Banglore heals or resurrects teammates. But it can also can cause issues when a Bangalore player uses it at the wrong time. For example, it can obstruct vision for Bangalore’s own teammates, which in turn can cause confusion as to what's happening around t

He likely came from a family of wealth and/or one that found pride in their familial history. Though Caustic is still alive there is truth to the belief that their son Alexander Maxwell Nox died that day in the lab as the man he is now is unrecogniza

Even with super speed and one- or two-hit kills, it’s not always as easy to down a Legend as one might think. Working with other Shadow Legends gives the Shadow Squad an advantage as they can attack from many different directions at o

Fundamentally, the game looks to be identical on mobile devices. Despite being on a phone instead of a high end PC, "on mobile, this works very well. We had to make a few small changes, for instance, we added a rear-view button on mobile, because you cannot look behind you as easily as with a mouse and keyboard or controll

Based on the short clip we have seen so far, some incarnation of an Oni appears Going to 5gamers be in development, which is a type of yōkai, ogre, or troll in Japanese folklore. These are often large and imposing figures with horns growing from their heads, and typically conceived as red, blue, or green. However, the Oni are also typically represented as wielding clubs, and what we saw in the first teaser on November 11 does not appear to a club, but a sword, so right now it is anyone’s guess exactly what we might

Right on track, Behavior Interactive has released the teaser for Chapter 14 of Dead by Daylight , titled "Cursed Legacy". Speculation is wild right now about who the next killer will be in the game, while no information has been released on if a survivor will also be coming, and what they might look like. We sat down with game director Mathieu Côté to discuss the future of Dead By Daylight , including challenges of creating the Nintendo Switch and mobile ports, the future roadmap, and the future of cross-p

Fortunately, Wattson’s tactical allows shield regeneration and Lifeline’s health drone restores health. A duo comprised of Wattson and Lifeline means players who are willing to play somewhat defensively have a number of options on this front. Assuming they have good positions with lots of cover, they can let other teams fight it out while they peek out for kills and knocks at a distance. Wattson's ultimate ability can protect people from grenades and artillery strikes from Gibraltars and Bangalores. Additionally, opponents are often afraid to push Wattson due to her fences, which cause a small amount of damage but also slow down players, making them easy targets. This makes it difficult for enemies to rush, which can give Lifeline enough time to resurrect Wattson should she get knocked at any po

If a team has circle advantage in a later phase of the game, there’s rarely a reason to try to take on a high-ground opponent. Because the circle’s closure will require them to have to drop down and push toward the circle anyway, fighting them when they’re on more level terrain is the way to go. If an opposing team waits until the circle is closing to move from the high ground position, this is a great time for a Bangalore’s or a Gibraltar to use their ultimate. This can provide a major impediment as the team must now face a barrage of damage within the circle or risk getting caught in the area outside the circle, which rapidly depletes players’ hea
