Apex Roulette is a tool specificaly made for content creators looking to take up on a challenge and potentially generate some new interesting content for their audiences and players looking to elevate themselves within the game by practicing every possible scenario or even some impossible ones. It gives you a random set of rules randomized within a couple of different categories. First off, it gives you a location where you should land and/or a specific building within a location. Afterwards it gives you the two weapons you should use and also if you're allowed to use any weapons, one weapon or no weapons until you've found the ones set by the roulette. To make things spicy, especially for content creators, there's a set of up to four extra challenges separated into four categories: Ability, Shield, Weapon, Miscellaneous. You can get one of each up to four different in total.
As i didn't have the skills to code something like this from scratch, this whole thing is based on Kotti's Hitman Roulette that i've been using for years i believe. It's a recoded version of his tool and all the credits for the original code go to him. (BTW. Message to Kotti: I've watched and learned Hitman speedrun strats from you for years and now you've even made me do a little research and learn some JS. Thank you!) Wanted to see if there'd be any interest from the Apex Legends community for a tool like this and i have A LOT of ideas on how to make it more spicy and interesting to help out the community and help this game and its content creators roll out more content while Respawn gets everything ready and perfect to roll out into Season 2. If this tool becomes wildly popular, brings a ton of joy to Apex Legends players, i'd like one of the future characters to be called like NikoSomething and be based on me in some shape or form. Hey, i'm not asking for a lot, right? *winks*
If the community shows interest in this little project, i'll definitely be working on a more advanced platform than this because as i've said i have A LOT of ideas to make some cool stuff but i'd need to know the interest is there before hiring proper devs to build something epic. I will be code out a separate "SQUAD" section where the entire squad gets a unique challenge so that content creators who are collaborating can roll out some content together.
Great! Head on over to form.apexroulette.com and submit your feedback! I'll be checking on it daily and will be updating accordingly if any great ideas show up. I'll keep a changelog and will add it to this page when i start making changes.
Absolutely, share it with your friends, create some content with it and/or in general just have fun using it! This entire project can go a lot of places or it can simply be shut down due to lack of interest. We'll see where it takes us...
If you're a streamer/content creator, be sure to check out the "streamer popout" which is basicaly a mini version you can embed when you're streaming/creating content. I've found it best to just use "Window Capture" in OBS Studio adding a "Color Key" filter set to filter out black color backgrounds (which you can find in the bottom right corner of the popout). If you're using Google Chrome you'll need to disable hardware acceleration before being able to capture the specific window. (You might not have to, i had to do it as it didn't work for me.)
