Obligatory thread for "stupid" questions

prestige-->collection-->nameplates-->equip.

Is muting people bugged? i swear i can go to each player profile and mute till it says *unmute*. and can still hear their mic.

Can confirm that muting works on PC. Kind of hard to select people since using the mouse doesn't work for me, having to use the keyboard to get to the next person.

I've been having trouble with it as well. Doesn't seem to always work when in a match, but it's fine in lobbies. So I now squelch everyone in all lobbies I join, just in case.

Of course the problem is when someone joins mid game with an open mic...

Do Random map and enemy factions provide bonus experience? I didn't see it listed in-game if it does.

Oh, that would be why my nameplate disappeared!  Thanks, I was sure I had equipped one, then a couple of matches later it was gone.  But I have been using boosters on Silvers. 

I have a stupid question that I have yet to figure out on my own.

You know when you get grabbed by the dogs and you have to spam a button to break free? It is easy to do if playing with a controller because it straight up tells you to spam a specific button. When playing with M/KB, it just says to tap button, and instead of telling you which button (like the controller does), it just shows a blank spot.

I have tried spamming mouse buttons and/or space bar, nothing works for me on M/KB. I looked through the keybindings and everything is bound. I just don't know what to do. So now everytime I get grabbed, I just gotta take all of the damage.

Normally that is the E button. It does show for me when I play the game.

Thanks guys. It appears that the game is only coded to show the default key in this situation. I rebound my E key and this is apparently the crux of the problem. I will now spam my use button that the game refuses to show.

Thanks. That's too bad. Along with squinting my eyes to see the interface, now I have to calculate recharge times every time I change weapons!

I find using the Apex HQ and easier way to modify my characters. The app, however, doesn't show the effect of weapon weight like in the Xbox One's character customization screen.

EDIT: You can't edit your character using Apex HQ when you're in-game, sadly.

This is just a guess but I would imagine that you can reset them by gaining the equivalent positive trait. Similarly I would imagine that a highly skilled team could go from +10 to +5 in a trait after failing a mission if the negative trait gained affects a positive one. Like always though, none of this is proprely explained anywhere so we will have to wait and find out for ourselves.
