Apex Legends players want next weapon to be LMG but with a twist

Apex Legends players are asking Respawn for a new LMG to be added to the arsenal of weapons, but they want it to consume light ammo instead of heavy or energy.  Respawn Entertainment’s battle royale is currently in Season 12 and hoists 28 unique weapons that players can use on their path to victory. However, one class that lacks a lot of diversity is the Light Machine Gun. With only four different options and two of them taking energy ammo, players want to see something new.

The ranged champ, who regularly sees play in the top lane, has flitted in and out of the game’s champion meta over the years, and only truly claiming a top spot for a time in Season 8.

Bungie to reduce Destiny 2 microtransactions in Year 4

estiny 2 will be moving away from Eververse transactions ⁠— at least slightly ⁠— in Year 4 and beyond, Bungie has confirmed, as the developers look to reverse the “lackluster” reception their franchise has received in 2020 so far. Bungie’s mega-franchise has been on the receiving end of a few scathing uproars from the Destiny community recently.
