Perhaps the most detrimental was the bug that prevented players from being scanned by Bloodhound’s tactical ability if another squad’s Bloodhound scanned them recently. This affected the intel gathering capabilities of the Technological Tracker, creating an illusion by making players think no hostiles were nearby.

Season 8 unleashed mayhem on Kings Canyon, bringing in massive map changes and giving it a fresh look. The explosive holds, one of the newly introduced features on the map, gives access to weapons and gear. However, few errors revolving around these explosive holds had been bothering players.
The devs at Respawn have grown a reputation for responding quickly to address the problems impacting the Apex Legends gameplay. The recent patch intends to resolve both these issues, alongside providing various stability fixes and re-enabling some mistakenly disabled dialogue. This hotfix should improve the overall experience, and hopefully, players won’t have to worry about facing inconsistencies in their matches.
