Avalanche Apex Connect

It looks like GenZ will be getting this. I sure hope it doesn't cause instability and connection issues that Second Extinction currently is working on. I wonder if GenZ will now require a connection. It sounds like you can opt out, but not sure.

Yes, I am excited and nervous at the same time.

If the fact they are hiding additional content to the game that many people have asked for (repeatable missions/quests) behind an "always online spyware gate" doesn't piss you off I don't know what to say....

It says you can opt out in the latest blogpost.

Exactly why I'm not gonna be using this feature. I have enough resources as is anyways, so I don't even need it.
Wish they'd let us access new features without locking it behind a paywall or some other convoluted and suspicious restriction.

It's not a paywall.

The weapons DLC that should've been free was behind a paywall.

Then don't buy it, easy.

The US weapons are nothing special compared to what is alreay in the game

I didn't, and exactly for the reason you stated.

I bought the game and ALL the DLCs for right at $20.00 USD. I bought another game that cost $29.00 USD but to get anything like tanks, planes, or any of the DLCs I would need to pay $143.00 USD on top of what I already spent...
So tell me how the US weapons should not be $2.99 USD?

Right now they ask you give an Email address that they can verify you are you. No cost. If you are replying on steam then you already gave them an email address. So to post on this forum you crossed a paywall.

Because the US weapons are literally carbon copies of guns we already have, just different models, sounds, stat changes, and animations. If the guns were unique in their own way and standed out from the rest, then it wouldn't be an issue.

Also the fact that the weapons are even DLC in general makes no sense, considering how the game is bringing in the plot point that America and Russia is starting to investigate Ostertorn. Why not give us access to the weapons in a future update? Or hell, in a DLC that brings in A LOT more content, like a new island, new missions, just anything that makes sense to be DLC exclusive.

Yeah, because I need a steam account to do that. I need a steam account to play any of the games on Steam (logged into one anyway).
Why do we need to make a separate account to access daily quests, a feature that a good percentage of the community has asked for, even thought it would be way easier to just implement it without the account system? Is it because the rewards might be too OP for new players? Make them only unlock after you beat the (base) game. Base game is too boring to beat? Make beating the game more enjoyable. It's that simple.

I think the email address is because they have had hackers coming in and causing some problems. If you don't have a email address listed they will see you right away. Besides I have gone on there site to tell them about various bugs I have run into. So they already have my email address so at this point at least for me its no biggie. I will say yes I spent $2.99 for the US Weapons DLC truly that is chump change. As for the Weapons DLC being free well they just like the rest of us have to pay their people and keep the heat and lights on. Ok I'm just going to go with the flow oh and I did purchase Second Extinction so I guess I'm already there because they started this there first.

I am just starting to know about Avalanche Apex Connect, I don't have Second Extinction. On the website I visited, 3 information struck me hard.

Can someone playing Second Extinction provide more info or direct me to good site with info. I got the below info from here https://support.secondextinctiongame.com/hc/en-gb/articles/360016920179-Avalanche-Apex-Connect-Frequently-Asked-Questions#Q1;

1. What is Avalanche Apex Connect?
Your Avalanche Apex Connect account is how you will receive exclusive rewards and benefits. For the release of Second Extinction into Early Access, you can use it to redeem your Twitch Drops, and future exclusive rewards.

So it means those purely on Steam and Apex account can get the exclusive rewards. Can someone provide a good exclusive reward they are talking about.

3. What is a limited Avalanche Apex Connect Account?
A limited Avalanche Apex Connect account will allow you to play the game fully, but you will not be able to claim Twitch drops or manage your Avalanche Apex Connect account.

Are these all the differences between a limited and full account?

8. What happens if I delete my Avalanche Apex Connect Account?
If you choose to delete your Avalanche Apex Connect account, you will no longer be able to play the game. You will have 24 hours to restore your account before you will have to create a new one. If you do decide to delete your Avalanche Apex Connect account, you will have to create at least a limited account in order to play the game.

Now this number 8 I don't like.

How is the multiplayer connection quality? I am answering this myself. Based on what I read on their site, AAA has a number of issues, maybe even worse what GZ is having because the game is in early-access stage.
