Apex Legends Problems Suggestion
One reddit user then replied with a recommendation:
“You are still able to play them by pre-selecting them in the lobby menu. Just don’t pick any other Legend in the selection screen.”
Although this Apex Legends problems was resolved for some, other users are still experiencing this. It’s uncertain how this issue came about, and developers are still puzzled as to why the Apex Legends problems is happening. Why is it happening now as opposed to the release of the game where thousands were unlocking these two special characters.
One other user suggested this: “Are you sure nobody else picked him before you? Pre-selection pretty much always worked for me so far. Might of course be some other hick-up that the game “forgets” what you have pre-selected, possible.”
Apex Legends Dev to the rescue?
More users were coming to the forum and saying that their are experiencing the issue on all platforms now. A dev from the Respawn team has replied saying that “This should be fixed on PC and PS4 as of 1110pm PST“.
