Control: Barometer
Control: Barometer is a limited-time game mode in Apex Legends that offers a unique twist on traditional gameplay mechanics. In this mode, players engage in objective-based combat, where controlling specific areas on the map is key to victory.
Game Mode Overview
In the Control mode, players are split into two teams consisting of nine Legends each. The primary objective is to gain control of designated zones on the map. In the Barometer map, which is part of the tropical Storm Point environment, teams must navigate and strategize around its unique terrain and structures.
Strategies for Success
- Team Coordination: Effective communication and coordination with your team are crucial. Assign roles to ensure that each zone is adequately defended while also planning offensive strategies to capture enemy zones.
- Zone Control: Focus on holding the central zone at the Barometer, as it often provides the most points and strategic advantage. Utilize defensive Legends like Wattson or Caustic to fortify positions.
- Legend Selection: Choose Legends that complement each other’s abilities. Mobility Legends like Octane or Pathfinder can quickly traverse the map, while support Legends like Lifeline can sustain the team during prolonged encounters.
Unique Features of Barometer
The Barometer location offers several unique elements that players must consider:
- Verticality: Use the high ground to your advantage. Many structures allow for vertical movement, providing excellent vantage points for snipers and recon Legends.
- Environmental Hazards: Be aware of natural obstacles and hazards that can impede movement or provide cover from enemy fire.
- Dynamic Weather: The Storm Point's dynamic weather system can alter visibility and movement, adding an extra layer of strategy to engagements.
