Apex Legends players are still hoping that Respawn Entertainment make a long-awaited change to looting that they’ve been asking for since the battle royale first launched.
It’s been almost five years since Apex Legends first launched and changed the battle royale with it’s unique formula that focuses on character abilities as well as gun skills and, well, plenty of luck.
Over those five years, Respawn have made plenty of changes to the game – some that have been widely accepted by the community and, of course, some that haven’t down all that well too.
There are also some changes that players have been waiting pretty much since day one for as well. They’ve recently called for a new pistol and shotgun to be added – seeing as neither weapon type has ever had a new addition – but also still want a simple looting change.
Apex Legends fans want starter storage to finally be increased
That’s right, if you’ve ever dropped into a game of Apex and wondered why the white backpack isn’t a standard thing to drop with, well, you’re not alone. There are plenty of players who are tired of still running around to find such a basic item.

They want Respawn to make it a standard thing, and they’re reigniting calls for that change to be made. “I think it’s time they remove the white backpack from the item pool and make it a spawn item, it’s not worth a spot with the amount of ground items the game currently have,” urged one fan.
“I agree 100%,” added another player. “Wouldn’t even need it to be an item, just remove it and up default storage space by 2. Anything to clear up loot and pave the way for a new weapon,” another suggested. “It’s just annoying not being able to find one at the beginning of the game,” another complained.
Some players also disagreed with the idea, suggesting that it would lead to some just wanting everyone to start out with blue level equipment anyway.
Respawn have, in the past, curtailed to similar calls as they made changes to starting armor in previous seasons. Though, who knows if they’ll listen again this time around.
