PC players aren’t going to be happy about this one. Apex Legends’ tap-strafing mechanic will be removed in Patch 10.1, Respawn announced today. The mechanic allows mouse and keyboard players to quickly change directions after a slide jump, which Respawn believes is “inaccessible, lacks readability/counterplay, and is exacerbated by movement abilities.” After much consideration and debate, we've decided to remove tap-strafing from @playapex in patch 10.1.Our reasoning: It's inaccessible, lacks readability/counterplay, and is exacerbated by movement abilities.The next patch notes will include a more detailed note about this.— Respawn (@Respawn)
