How to fix the Party Member Preloading error in Apex Legends

Once you team up with your friend in Apex Legends, it’s hard to call it a day before playing at least a few matches. While taking a break is essential between matches, most squads will instantly queue for the next match, unless an error or a bug is preventing them from doing so.

As such, our tier list has gone through quite a few changes. We’ve placed every gun in the game into a tier and give our reasoning as to why you should—or shouldn’t—use it.  Just like our character tier list, the order of weapons in each tier

The 5 best pre-built gaming PCs of 2021

A pre-built gaming PC functions as a convenient option for gamers who want to enter the PC gaming community but don’t have the wherewithal to build their own rig.

But that

If you’re looking to skip the chase, however, here are the 10 Ascendant Anchors we’ve found in Shattered Realm: Forest of Echoes. Since there’s substantial overlap between the locations of Ascendant Anchors and Trivial Mysteries, we
