We all know Respawn Entertainment's battle royale shooter Apex Legends isn't the perfect FPS game, but it's a damn fine one and there's so much to look forward to when it comes to booting up this game and sitting down to play - or, you know, standing up if you're into that. When something is introduced that's a little broken, though, it changes the experience. A recent example of this is the Splash Zone Flatline weapon skin; this AR cosmetic was updated to fix it's iron sights, which were allegedly "smaller than it should be". If you're not sure why smaller iron sights are an issue, they improve visibility and target acquisition - offering whoever's using it an unfair advantage. However, it's looking like Apex Legends' Splash Zone Flatline skin was always destined to be busted.

Now, we know that's a big claim, but there's evidence - of which was shared on the Apex Legends Uncovered subreddit by 'RaizTheOne'. As you can see for yourself below, this Apex Legends fan has found some apparent concept art for the Splash Zone Flatline skin online - something that seems to show the original iron sights design for the weapon.

The concept art, which has been shared on ArtStation by Respawn Entertainment concept artist Yinan Wei, clearly shows fairly open iron sights not dissimilar to how the Flatline weapon skin looked in-game when it was introduced - the image on the left below.
