Has there been another change to matchmaking recently?
So since the end of the weekend just passed I began noticing that my teammates were becoming... lower in quality. Since the beginning of this season qp became a lot more sweaty due to the matchmaking becoming tighter, with myself having teammates that were ok and going against master/pred (which while sweaty and quickly ending, wasn't the worst). But recently I've noticed every game except a small few have had low level players in my game and my overall teammates skill has plummeted but still being placed against the same master/pred 3 stacks + now cheaters but that a different thing altogether so its not important. So, what's happened? Did the matchmaking change, become less strict or have there just been a large drop in players recently?dingothe13 hours agoSeasoned Novice98Views2likes10CommentsGame glitch no access to challenge, events, store, etc
Hey there, for the past 5 days I haven’t been able to get into game, I can’t even load into the firing range (been trying for the last 30 mins) I’ve tried network reset, un/reinstall, restarts, resets the works and it’s killing me because Apex is the only game I play! Has anyone encountered this before/have a fix for it? PFA a photo of the lobby so you can see what I mean. thanks in advance5Views0likes0CommentsThe low level account cheaters?
So, recently in US west servers I've noticed a spike in default skin, no badge, level 100 or bellow accounts. These accounts are likely the same accounts banned a while back. How do I know this? Well, I started noticing this one or two weeks ago that there was a sharp increase in default skins and level 5 accounts. So recently, I decided to play Bangalore and throw smoke between myself and enemies (without entering it), as in all of my games these low level accounts were either hard locking, soft locking and wallhacking. I found that, out of 10 lobbies, the average amount of times these default skin players shot me through it with no information or myself and them being in it was roughly 4 or 5 per game (with one of those games having a Bangalore shoot smoke at enemies and then toggle their hard aimbot on (whilst on controller as well which I didn't know was a thing till then) and directly hit them through it, with no information, with a wingman. This was after she killed me and spent the game directly avoiding every fight and shooting any teams before her assumed duo died and chaos ensued. I was curious if anyone else has noticed something similar as of recent.dingothe13 hours agoSeasoned Novice2Views0likes0CommentsEA Account Was Hacked & Banned

Hello, I have been unable to load into apex for the past 2 days. I get on the game and have an infinite loading screen. I’ve tried everything online, ran as administrator, changed DNS, reinstalled, validated game files, updated windows/drivers, changed Ethernet ports, reset internet, cleared cache, and flushed DNS. Nothing has worked and I’ve been unable to connect to any apex support. I really need some help!5Views0likes0CommentsApex not launching on EA App or Steam
Hey people. For the past week I've been trying to launch APEX through both the EA App and Steam, and every single time it fails. All it does is for the EA App, the app just reopens as if I exited the game, and with Steam nothing happens. The game doesn't open and there's no error message that pops up for either platform. I've tried uninstalling the game from both platforms and reinstalling them with no success. In addition, I've attempted a clean boot, marking the game as an exception from Windows Security, and I've tried running the game as an administrator. All of the methods I've been told to do from people I know and EA Support have been unsuccessful. If anyone else has had this issue and was able to resolve it, what did you do to make it work? This all started after the Astral Anomaly event launched.256Views0likes2CommentsPENALIZED FOR CRASHING?
It is truly unfair that, I am penalized for crashing due to unstable servers. Losing RP because the game lags and then kicks me from the match, but somehow I am "abandoning" when it is completely out of my hands. I am sure your team is trying their best to cater to players who are having issues, but please... figure out the server connectivity.5Views0likes0CommentsState of game
I’m just here to say nobody actually likes the game anymore it’s not fun. 9/10 times you’re going against someone camping buildings with an lmg or camping height with a sniper. Sbmm doesn’t seem to work playing with friends who don’t play the game actually despise the game and rightfully so. I cannot go 20mins without dying to some bs. That’s it plain and simple the games shid it should be dead keep br in the trash where it belongs. also let me add EA might be the problem idk if yall have played any other EA games but most are based around greed which is hilarious doesn’t work in the long run might be a money grab but trust most of us dont wanna spend a dime on a shiddy game.grannyplayz15 hours agoSeasoned Scout18Views0likes1CommentApex Ideas and why the game might be slowly dying again......
Hi I'm a die hard apex player I started playing since season 7 and I've loved apex since the beginning and even now still love to play it and havent left it even in its rough spots in time but now I feel to me as a die hard player or an OG casual that I'm not having fun anymore and I feel like the game is slowly dying again for me or could be in general. I'm from the UK and I first want to talk about server changes when I'm from the south of England and my nearest server is EU central and this isn't just me I'm talking any of the northern countries in Europe I'm getting 50ms ping most the time and for people even further away I feel bad for people Sweden Finland and any of those countries who have to play apex on 50 to 70+ ping which is an un fair advantage since they are delayed to the server so there going to get more missed shots and no reg and its going to feel like the enemies hit every bullet 100% even behind walls or doors or even head peaking which lets be real thats unfair and makes you not want to play which is what I feel like now my closest server is EU central and an idea to fix this is making more servers for the EU just having 1 is unacceptable so I'm suggesting you make and EU north, west and east server to help balance the load to servers and make the game more fun for people who are not central to Europe. Secondly I want to complain about the switching over to Dx12 its a Api that is still in its testing stage for Apex also it was not created on Dx12 Apex was on Dx9 and Dx11 and Dx12 probably wasnt made for the Source engine maybe Source engine 2 has more compatibility and fixes a lot of the bugs with it and I know you can't just update to Source 2 since you would have to re-write the entire game to run it but getting rid of Dx11 was just a stupid thing to do if you weren't going to update it then dont but just leave it in the game also me playing on a low level Api which is Dx12 makes me not able to optimise the game myself to the best that I want it to be so my performance is suffering because of it and because its automatically set the settings with Dx11 which is a high level Api it runs better for me as I optimise it myself with NVidia control panel giving me more fps I also want to note Dx12 half's my GPU utilisation which is bad and feels like it stutters more because of this so I would rather it be running 70 to 99% any day than around 50% which also tells me my hardware is not being fully utilised and thats also why my game has worse performance now I also want to put that the servers have more input lag from Dx12 than Dx11 when I tested it when the feature was still around I get Dx12 has more performance but because its a low Api its only helping people with older CPUs and GPUs since its automatically setting the settings to run better for them older pc's with older hardware but since ive got more modern and recently released hardware the performance is bad since it has no issue running the game so please I would love an option to change back to Dx11 and so would many others. Thirdly there are issues with aiming on MNK the aim feels very off with the servers and just in generally the performance is smooth but then it feels like the bullets are not lining up properly this could be a distance from the server problem like ive said previously or Dx12 has got bugs for mouses in this game but it needs to be looked into thats a reason I dont want to play this game and a reason maybe people are using controller more and also dont want to play this game this is from Dx12. lastly I also want to complain about the constant cheating, matchmaking issues and how trash the anti cheat is and how disconnected you are from banning cheaters lets say from the other side of the world Europe is massively under attack by cheaters and its probably not just Europe its probably Asia as well and in every game it feels like one quarter or higher of the lobby is cheating there are also issues with matchmaking putting me with people higher than my kdr and my skill like Preds or multi season Master players I also want to put there are a lot of weird players with master badges and pred badges that are stuck in Diamond lobbies in the middle of the season which is just weird when they play everyday but can't get out of diamond when they are multi season preds or master players I also want to suggest changing the matchmaking instead of pc lobbies and console lobbies the lobbies should be determined on the input you are using like in Cod and if people change mid game it should stop them this would help separate on what the real issue of cheaters are and would actually make the game more fun it would help me as an MNK player not be against aim demons and its would help controller players not be against movement demons but also the lobbies would be harder again for controller players making the game more fun and a challenging and would actually help MNK players get better and be against there own skill level in players with movement and aim and would maybe get more people to play on MNK which would maybe break the never ending cycle of people always going for controller as their main input for playing on this game. I could be wrong but these are ideas that would maybe help the game and players out. Please tell me your opinions on this and if you agree or disagree below.JBarnesBee20 hours agoSeasoned Novice21Views0likes0CommentsAccount ban
So my account has been mistakenly banned for about a month now. I submitted a dispute immediately and have yet to receive any response from EA. I’m at the point where I want to just unlink my Xbox account and start fresh, but I can’t even due that because it currently has an active ban. Has anyone else had this problem ? I’ve even gone into live chat and the agent seemed to have no solutions.lifrostyl2 days agoNewcomer70Views0likes2CommentsServer going down and losing points
Hi, I start a game and sometimes the server goes down and I can't get back into the game, so I start a new game and when it ends I get a 15 min ban and a loss of 165 points. This is the fifth time this has happened to me and it's impossible to rank up... am I cursed?58Views0likes5CommentsIssues
I keep getting kicked out of the game after one or two games and sometimes during match . I get messages like ( this account doesn't have online play ) , ( code: wheel ) , and says I don't have permission for chat even though I don't have any parental control on . I have reinstalled game , redid the license, changed dns , it's not my Internet because I can play other games and ps5 says it has good connection, I have even tried changing language but still nothing . I talked to customer service and they were useless, literally didn't help at all .,..... They told me to do stuff I had already done and then said to post on here and see if the community could help . I was like so you don't know anything about your game so I should talk to the players ? Dumbest customer service I have ever communicated with . Name was mayank FYI . So anyone have any ideas ?9Views0likes0CommentsCatalyst Perks
All I’m gonna say is that Catalyst feels useless to play when you choose perks oriented around buildings/doors and the final rings are out in the open… She also feels useless when you pick perks oriented around her Ultimate and the final rings are all in buildings… there’s no in between aside from picking one of each…KingxOfxMisfits2 days agoRising Rookie29Views1like2CommentsFix apex matchmaking
Me and my friend are having trouble with wanting to play this game, since we’re getting queued with masters/apex predators with millions of damage while I’m in platinum at best and my friend’s in bronze it is very frustrating when you spend 30 minutes looting and feeling like you can win to just be molly whopped by a pred horizon I can’t l even start to tell you how many 2nd places we’ve gotten from this issue. If it’s going to be like this at least just put us in full pred lobbies so we can at least go out in a blaze of glory then spending a lot of time looting just to die23Views0likes1CommentDid you enjoy this match? "Yes" "No"
What the hell is the point of this "Did you enjoy this match?" "Yes" "No" prompt at the end of the match? No box to fill in for further feed back? Clowns. Add a box for us to tell you why we say No. Trash match making. You keep putting multiple 3 stack preds in plat and low diamond lobbies. Amazing fun. Eh forget it, they could add the box but i bet they wont even check the notes.Lobasrumpasaurus3 days agoNew Veteran151Views2likes14CommentsAsh - again :)
When are you going to balance Ash to other characters in this game? I'm not asking if you will do it, because this game won't survive if Ash were to be like this. I'm just asking when. When can I go back to the game and enjoy it without having to think about the fact that 9/10 of my deaths are from the elusive Ash?Blekerodo3 days agoRising Ace232Views2likes16CommentsRanked q
Been getting fried religiously by top ranked preds while trying to q through diamond to get to masters. Half of whom are cheating their actual nuts off. Does ea/respawn have anything to say about this yet? Still going to continue posting about this until I see a change.7Views0likes0CommentsMirage
Hey apex I think for a mirage buff it would be cool if he could switch places with his clones I hope that you would consider puting that in a next update or mirage reborn and for his alt it would be cool if he he became invincible llwhere no one can shoot him for about ten secondso6egirpy2z873 days agoNewcomer5Views0likes0Comments
