In the event you logged into Apex Legends in the present day and had been confused by the absence of Olympus in each the ranked and Play Apex recreation modes, you aren’t alone. Regardless of being the meant map for ranked for the final stretch of season 15, Respawn introduced in the present day that Olympus has been quickly disabled.
The builders let the group know that Olympus wanted to be disabled to repair the widespread “Engine Error – UI Images Ran Out of Room” error code that has plagued gamers and crashed servers for the reason that new cut up replace on Tuesday, Jan. 17.
Apparently, this error was being attributable to Olympus itself, and the map shall be disabled whereas Respawn appears to be like at fixes for the error. Within the meantime, ranked has shifted over to World’s Edge.
It’s unclear if the map can be part of the issue that has seen many gamers in ranked reporting that Masters and Predator gamers have been stepping into lobbies with Rookie or Bronze gamers as effectively. It might be that this phenomenon is a part of the brand new matchmaking system working its kinks out as Respawn works to introduce it and retire the previous SBMM system that it beforehand used.
Regardless, it appears to be like like Olympus enjoyers are out of luck in the interim since their favourite map appears to be the issue baby plaguing the sport. That is the case in all battle royale modes in addition to Management, the place it looks like the standard Hammond Labs map has been faraway from the LTM’s map rotation as effectively. As an alternative, Barometer and Lava Siphon merely have longer durations of time because the “stay” Management map.
Regardless of the concern is, Respawn shall be eager to repair it as rapidly as potential. The bugs which have pervaded the sport for the reason that Spellbound replace and subsequent cut up change have been the worst that the sport has encountered for the reason that season 12 replace a 12 months in the past prompted Respawn to reward all gamers a number of free battle move ranges.
