Please revert the anti-cheat system to the previous one.
On the console version of Apex Legends, severe issues such as frequent rollbacks and packet loss are currently occurring, apparently due to the newly introduced anti-cheat system. The anti-cheat system was introduced to reduce DDoS attacks and cheating, but if it continues to cause these severe issues, isn't the system effectively encouraging cheating instead? Please prioritize fixing this issue above all else.

Apex is perfect
No, im being serious rlly, If you think apex is messed up, Go play other games, You wont. They arent games to begin with. Cod? <removed>. BF? <removed> (except for bf1 and v but these are very old). Even if apex is messed up. Its still wayyyyyy up there. like honestly have you tried the rest??? I just cant bro. Like fortnite is just so very childish. COD feels very cheap. BF6 is just a cod rip except everything is worse. there is literally nothing else worth your time and effort. Is there? well why are you here and not playing them in the first place huh? Am i being stupid? AM I????? [CM edit - profanity]STOP THE SMURFING EPIDEMIC
As someone that doesn't have the ability to play everyday due to work/life, it has grown increasingly annoying to play in gold and platinum lobbies at the end of the season and be obliterated by a level 40 player with a 20 kill & 4000 damage badge. Making a game free is nice, but I would much rather pay $20 to not have to play against kids on their 3rd account simply because they're tired of having to play against competition with a similar amount of time played or because they're 'Helping their friends level up'. I understand that at this point Apex has to cater to the higher skilled players to keep their game alive, but it's started to become unplayable for the people that only play a few hours a week.I've been banned but I wasn't able to appeal
So recently I flew to visit my friend in Italy, me and him entered a gaming cafe and started playing, however after warming up in firing range. I got received a ban which say the client's game account has been banned. Then I realised this computers hardware has been banned before, but this is not the main issue. I've been trying to request an appeal but the appeal system seems to be not working for 5 days straight. Since I couldn't appeal using EA appealing system I would like to request an chance for manual review here: I want to state unequivocally that I did not use any cheats, third-party software, or even play a single game while logged into that computer. I kindly request a manual review of my account logs, Login timestamps, IP address changes, and hardware IDs. Match history logs confirming zero games were played during that session. Thank YouEA Made a false claim about there Anti-Cheat prior to Q4
The anti cheat and the efforts of EA have yet again let down the legitimate player. The law will be investigating a securities law breach. EA quite possibly knew that the anti-cheat would not work. Year after year, season after season, Respawn has destroyed its base player trust. Please ‘report this product’ on Steam, Xbox, and PlayStation. This battle against cheater has been lost by Respawn, EA, Microsoft, and Sony to kids making cheats in their basements.Game has degraded over few days
This game over past few days has degraded hard. It takes 5 attempts to open a death box. I'm getting killed by bullets that never happened. Enemies are absorbing rounds and rounds ans rounds of magazines. Cheaters are prolific 100% accuracy even if flying past in whatever direction. Items don't pickup. Absolute mess. Absolute utter mess. This is on 30-40ms ping no packet loss. Whole team dying immediately. Maybe 4 kills in 5 hours of playing. Terrible. Absolute terrible mess.Game gets faker and faker
Literally being killed before I've even been shot now. Enemies on a quarter life left I shoot them with almost a whole round from any gun they turn round and kill full shield me immediately even tho they had no health and I was shooting them 2 seconds before they shot me. 40ms ping no packet loss. So fake this gameplay.
Thought： Matchmaking Test Result (Game Info hub)
I checked the post in Apex Legends Game Info hub. https://forums.ea.com/blog/apex-legends-game-info-hub-en/apex-legends-matchmaking-test-results---09302026/13761856 I want to say something to the developers. Why the win rate for duos is too high. Why the Solo-only queue test failed naturally. What I would like to propose. 1' First, it is completely natural that duos have a slightly higher win rate than full squads and an overwhelmingly higher win rate than solo players. There are three foreseeable reasons for this under the current system: padding win counts via boosting services, relaxed encounters with full squads and facing lower-skilled full squads in matchmaking, and the 2-to-1 internal dynamic within the squad, which makes it easy to seize control of team decisions. Solo players' frustrations go beyond mere win rates. The true are issues that Duos inpact the impact on matchmaking and give the unnecessary stress to solo players. —which are precisely the structural flaws that create those win rate discrepancies. 2' When a solo-only queue was implemented for Diamond and above, it was initially reasonable to expect that the win rate gap in Diamond and above would shrink, as top-tier players who usually win in full squads struggled with team coordination when forced to play solo. However, because the developers did not impose any penalties for abandoning accounts in Diamond and above, players who lacked the confidence to win solo simply abandoned their accounts and left the lobbies. As a result, the composition of the remaining player base shifted. Given this reality, it was ultimately entirely natural that the win rate distribution and gap remained largely unchanged, while the player count dropped. 3' Based on these perspectives, I have long argued that duos should either be isolated into a separate matchmaking lobby while keeping ranked, or banned from entering ranked entirely. It is much easier for two people to find one more person than for a single person to find two. So why don't duos look for a third? Furthermore, since non-ranked BR modes for duos already exist, why do they choose ranked instead? Why do the developers complicate matchmaking and increase their own burden? Given the existing complaints about matchmaking accuracy, I cannot understand why you would take steps that contradict improving that accuracy. This is not about unfairly driving away a specific group of players. It is simply the natural conclusion based on data and structural realities. Do not abandon the challenge of a solo-only queue simply because of this predictable failure. You should eliminate the underlying issues and try again. Please do not look for excuses to give up on the challenge. In fact, the test wasn't a total failure. The repetitive, one-sided scenarios—where high-tier streamers and top players form full squads, follow a strict meta, and steamroll everyone else—actually decreased. Previously, those by-the-book matches felt stale. However, watching competitive players and streamers struggle with voice chat and impromptu coordination with random teammates created genuine tension. Their performances were pushed to the limit, making it thrilling to watch. What if they had implemented sub-account countermeasures for Platinum and below alongside this? Beginners could have learned and adopted not just rigid, textbook plays, but also adaptive, on-the-fly decision-making by watching these top players and competitors. It was a massive missed opportunity. Finally, the developers cap kill points at 7 kills, but this contradicts the current matchmaking situation where higher-tier players systematically hunt lower-tier players as planned, as well as the rules prohibiting smurfing via sub-accounts. Hurry up and rank sub-accounts up quickly—take away their motivation to create sub-accounts for smurfing in the first place.I’ve unlinked and linked account by mistake and now lost it all
"Hi, I unlinked my PlayStation Network account, advancedstarlord, from my original EA Account, Fe4rLess4271, by mistake. All my Apex Legends progress, purchases, and items are on that original account, and I can no longer relink my PSN to it because of the lifetime linking rule. I'm requesting that you restore the link between advancedstarlord and Fe4rLess4271 so I can access my progress again. I have access to both EA accounts and can verify ownership of each." I just want all my stuff back and it was a general mistake and pressed the wrong things please I really do need helpA DDoS attack from the Apex developers
The developers have said that they are currently investigating the issues causing problems such as rollbacks. However, this is an issue that could be resolved simply by reverting to the previous anti-cheat system. It may take some time to revert the system, but surely this is something that could be done within two days. Do you really not want to admit that EA Javelin was a failure? Please, developers, revert to the previous anti-cheat system as soon as possible so that this issue can be fixed. Because of this, I am currently unable to properly play Ranked.Does EA Javelin hail the return of Linux Support?
Does the introduction of EA's anti-cheat system Javelin pave the way for the return of Linux gaming support for Apex Legends? Now that we have EA Javelin that Kills 99.9% of Germs, can we please have Linux return to the Outlands? I know its not possible now, because if it was other EA titles would have already made the leap to Linux, but is there perhaps a timeline, or development update on the return of Linux support? This would also be important for the expansion of the Apex legends market, as popular devices like Mac, Android, and Chromebook are all Linux capable, this could also bring the Return of Apex Mobile, but in a seamless fashion, not even requiring a separate mobile build of the game. The return of Linux support can bring the Apex experience to almost every major device in the world, and I think those of us that want an on-the-go experience are eager to access the games from any device we can get our hands on. Thank you developers of the game, anti cheat, and experience that work so hard to make Apex what it is, thank you to the wonderful Community Managers and to the people I haven't seen since this place was called Answers HQ.stuttering and lag are so severe
The stuttering and lag are so severe that it’s completely unplayable way too often. I don't care how polished the collaboration skins are—just try competing in a pure gunfight for once. On top of that, with so many smurfs, lag abuse, and cheaters around, the player base is bound to shrink. If the lag were fixed, the game would at least guarantee a decent level of fun, but who would want to play a game where even that isn't in sight? If you don't address this current state, the player count and concurrent users will only keep dropping. P.S. In fact, in the last CR Cup, one of the members from the team with Kato Junichi, Sumomo, and Taiji got disconnected right before the final match, leading to an unfair and frustrating loss.

I Like Axle....
And all the other Legends. I just want the devs to know that everybody doesn't despise Axle. While I don't play or main her, I think she's an awesome Legend. I think all the Legends are great and well thought out. Were some Legends, such as Axle and Seer, introduced overpowered? Yes. But that doesn't mean that these Legends are bad concepts. It just means that they needed to be balanced. Creating Legends, Maps, looting elements, etc. has been a developmental success for Respawn. Many games have come and gone over the years, but these strong attributes is why Apex still exists. Great job. 👏👏👏👏
