Game is done, cheaters won
Every single match now there's at least a couple, you can't even avoid it...your game is finished, you ban them but they all come back and do it again! For real, they're even in bot royale now... Level 20 players running around hipfire shooting across the map while tap straffing and you want the 2% of people that are left not using cheats to compete with that? Ok respawn...sureNeed to be able to report in game mics
I don't have a computer that is capable of handling recording games as I play them, I'm on a laptop and squeezing as many frames out of it as I can... I've played numerous matches recently where a teammate has called me or other people racial slurs like the N-word and theres no way to report it unless I have it recorded, this needs to change. I got a warning the other day for calling someone an A-hole on my team for cheating, but theres kids running around saying the most disgusting things I've ever heard with no repercussions. You need to monitor voice chat, at least have it recording so when there is a report of harassment or someone outright throwing out slurs you can do something about it
Recent "gameplay enhancement" bans
(This is not an appeal just informative information regarding recent bans) I wanted to share this because I was recently hit with one of these "gameplay enhancement" bans myself, and it seems to be part of a wider pattern since the recent EAC updates. I had a fresh PC account that reached level 54 and started queuing into Diamond/Predator lobbies with strong damage and kills. I was not using any cheats, macros, scripts, Cronus, XIM, or anything like that. After the ban I pulled my EA data and it showed 35 player reports, mostly for smurfing. It felt like the behavioral flags triggered from the quick climb and the report spike. For what it is worth, I streamed my gameplay at the time and I continue to stream my gameplay with clear evidence that there were no cheats or unauthorized tools in use. The anti-cheat is doing good work against actual cheaters, but these behavioral flags on PC feel pretty quick to trigger for anyone performing well on a new account. Console seems to see far less of this. Just wanted to put the details out there in case it helps show the pattern.
It's about **bleep** time we get a good **bleep**ing legend.
## **Legend Profile: Departure** **Name:** Inna Potzclaw **Class:** Controller Departure is designed to evolve the Controller role by moving away from static "bunker" gameplay and focusing on **active repositioning** and **resource management**. She excels at shredding shields and using AI-assisted utility to hold down a perimeter. ### **Passive: Tuck and Roll** Inspired by the **Halo Reach evade**, this is a high-skill movement ability for a defensive legend. * **The Move:** Inna can perform a quick directional dash or roll. * **Purpose:** Instead of using movement to dive into a fight (like a Skirmisher), she uses this to quickly "tuck" behind cover or dodge incoming fire while retreating to a fortified position. ### **Tactical: The Spit Nova** Following the trend of legends with "integrated" weapons (like Vantage or Rampart), this is a unique hybrid firearm. * **The Design:** A cross between a **Spitfire** and a **Volt SMG**, powered by an **L-STAR plasma conduit**. * **The Effect:** It fires superheated plasma rounds specifically engineered to **tear through enemy shields** with high efficiency. * **The Risk:** To keep it balanced, the gun has an **overheat mechanic**. If you over-fire, the plasma vents back at the player, dealing self-damage. It rewards players who can manage their heat levels during a firefight. ### **Ultimate: The Stalker** A seeker drone built from a **Revenant torso** and a specialized processor, allowing it to function as an autonomous combat unit. * **The Command System:** Using a "using the same button life line uses to call doc back" system, the Stalker can switch between three distinct move sets: 1. **Cover Your Back:** Guards the rear of the squad to prevent flanks. 2. **Assist & Frontal Fire:** Joins the frontline to provide extra pressure on the enemy. 3. **Retrieve:** The Stalker has a white backpack for storage. When you use the selected button on an item (like a battery or ammo), the droid fetches it and brings it back to you. She is a Russian descendants and is based off of a real life person who I feel can voice her and model for her. You could add her after you add the next legend. I have another legend called stop watch and YES IF YOU REACH OUT TO ME I WILL TELL YOU EVERYTHING I HAVE from character origins to designs I am currently working on a new map where Inna Potzclaw called home. I'm not some weirdo who is just begging for you to make the legend I'm the weirdo that wants a chance to make his own game but can't because of where I'm at in life, I promise you that I would love to join your team and work for pennies on the dime for your company, I have so many creative ideas that selling mine for dirt cheap won't effect my creative processes. I'm really reaching out to you guys not for myself but for gameplay, a star stuck inside of Russian rule in hopes she can shine bright once more her artist name is Polarrana. She is the one I want to use for the modeling and voicing of the apex legend and I think you could get a decent deal out of us. As for others who feel I am waisting my time, just keep those opinions to yourself, yes I'm am actually working on the map and a separate game for Inna herself but ONLY because I love this character more than I have ever loved any other of my characters.neo strafe
The game is full of people using this new Strafe especially with smurfè accounts, it has become impossible to play not to mention the people who use obvious wallacks, you are hidden in a corner for 30 seconds a team arrives that immediately turns to your side without caring about the team a little ahead that shoots, after countless reports nothing has ever been done, always automatic messages, now unplayable full of cheaters, you would do better to turn off the servers, for me it's a dead game I'll give it another year of life, you want to save the game make them pay at least 30 dollarsMatch Quality Daytime Vs Night
Does anyone else experience a really bad difference in match quality with teammates you get queued with? Yes I solo queue but it’s ranked and the skill of teammates I get is more bipolar than a certain country leader. Most the time during day my teammates play like they’re ranked and at night it’s like they’re chewing on crayons. Anyone else experience this?
Ranked in season 28 unplayable from diamond and up still!!!! Banwave?
This is absolutely ridiculous for 13 straight seasons console has been in absolute wasteland of third-party hardware, whether it's macros or full-on scripts. I played this game since it came out. I've played this game for 7 years. It's not hard to tell when someone is just pointing and shooting their gun without having to control their recoil via mechanics and techniques. You have established that using macros or scripts or any kind of third-party hardware to limit the amount of in-game player decisions a player has to make is against TOs and is considered cheating. I'm seriously hoping that there's going to be some kind of Hope for season 29 of Apex Legends and some form of anti-cheat that detects and automatically not manually for goodness sake. So sick of the manual bands because they're not doing anything and then just like three, four or five weeks. Possibly even six or seven seasons before these freaks get banned again. I'm trying to not use pointally worded language here. But it is completely unfathomable about how desperate people are to cheat in this game. Whether it's something as simple as a strike pack or something as severe as aimbot and wall hacks. You got players spoofing into console lobbies with full cheats with ESP wall hacks. Got people staring at people straight through a wall and pred and still yet to be banned. You got xim users that are currently pred and have yet to be banned. You still got a bunch of players running around with m&k input because they're using a Zen and anti-recoil. It's frustrating. Console desperately needs another bandwave a little more than a little over 3,000 players. That last bandwave barely made a dent. Don't get me wrong. Recoil control is a thing. I do it all the time. But there are mechanics and techniques that these players are clearly not using. Every gun has a recoil pattern meaning every gun has recoil. Another thing that I don't think that was talked about is modded controllers with built-in zens and macros. That automate certain functions in the game. There needs to be a way to automatically detect whether someone is using third-party hardware. Whether it's something like a strike pack a modded controller a Zen, a Xim or a Titan. There are players in the game with Zen and Xim and Titan literally in their clan tag. Will the third tier level 300 account that has yet to be banned. There is no way that these players are not getting banned. There's no way that these players are not getting flagged. So you are either intentionally not banning these players or you're waiting three or 5 weeks six seven seasons waiting for what I have absolutely no idea to ban these people and one big bandwave rather than just banning them right there. These people should never be making into diamond. These people should be banned before they ever level up to even be playing ranked. I get that. That's wishful thinking. But they should never be making it to diamond. They shouldn't even make it to Platt. Keeping these players out of Platt will keep them out of high tier lobbies. I mean it's not like you're even monitoring high tier lobbies anyways. I literally don't know what's going on on that other side of thanks. But I'm so sick of the state of this game. To sit here and play ranked and not get out. Skilled but get out hardwared in this game is The most frustrating experience. More frustrating than watching paint dry. No, I fought some legit players throughout this season too. Both died and killed them. So I know the difference. The teaming in ranked is also really annoying. You can go to the freaking looking groups on Xbox and there are about six or seven different looking groups that are requesting people to freaking six man and you report these people through the Xbox and they don't even get hardware banned. So partially that's Microsoft's fault. But it also doesn't take a rocket scientist to look at a match and see that there are three different teams all shooting one team multiple times throughout an entire match and then don't even attempt to shoot at each other. Or they start to shoot at each other and then they stop. And both go in opposite directions. That's been happening way too much for it to be a coincidence. These people are not the smartest people. They are some of the dumbest people I've ever seen in my entire life. Once is a coincidence twice three times as a pattern.
Rank difficulty & anime collaboration
Thank you for watching.😅 The difficulty of ranked matches has really decreased since Season 21. Recently, Diamond 3 is almost always the most populated rank. Also, looking at the overall player base, there are far too many Diamond players. Reaching Master used to be a daily routine, but due to the reduced difficulty, you can easily reach Diamond by playing only two days before the ranked match ends. There are various opinions about ranked matches, aren't there? But I think it would be okay to revert the difficulty back to around Season 14. This game has very few collaborations with anime or other games. There are absolutely no collaborations with professional league teams, which makes me question whether the development team truly wants to promote this game. Look at Fortnite. They have so many different collaborations; I'm envious.replicable observation
Any time i'm in good gameplay... getting 10 kills per game easy. Then, after a few games, suddenly I'm put into gameplay where your bullets do no damage, you are dead in 2 bullets from any weapon, this will consist for several games, before reverting. Why after good quality and successful games are you suddenly thrown into games where your guns do no damage, no shots register, you're downed before you're even shot. Without fail. Replicable. Very very peculiar and consistently replicable behaviour.Might give up until they respond
I feel like I’ve tried every available route I can on my own, I’ve tried researching and being proactive as well as securing my account more if maybe I was hacked. I just feel defeated, I don’t know what to do anymore I just feel sad honestly, apex got me through some really tough times and helped distract me and to know the account I used and the skins I had won’t be there anymore is a bit depressing. But if I eventually can’t get my account back I might just start a new account and just play f2p or something, anyways hopefully it all works out but if it doesn’t I will give up. Have a good night everyone
Hemlock alt fire BROKEN
Team, the new Hemlock alt fire is not fire. Consider what you have enabled. For a mere 15s cool down and a petty ammo cost (negated by infinite ammo mod) you have made every character in Apex a HARD counter to control legends. Unlike legend counters (like Maggie vs Rampart) the devs have made every player an easy destroyer of anything control! I don’t care who you play, but if you come on my team as a rampart or catalyst, I’m assuming NONE of your tacticals will help. Because every player has a hemlock and if I turn my back to the rampart wall or reinforced door, a SINGLE hemlock shot… not another tactical, not an ultimate… a single…. Cheap… 15s cool down shot… from a NORMAL ground pickup weapon will neutralize anything you do! A whole minute of fortifying neutralized in an instant! I see it all the time now! I mean, aside from caustic (obvious reasons) control characters have had a hard time keeping up in the meta and then the devs do a hemlock rework!?!?! To create an overpowered alt fire that makes control legends effectively useless? Why!? So you could bring parity to the R301!?! How does this rework even come close to “parity” with the r301?????? You guys have upended any sense of balance with this weapon rework! Ok, so I’ve given my critique… obviously I’m not a fan. I think it was poorly thought out, poorly executed, and while I see what you guys were going for… I think it’s pretty hard to deny this change is game breaking (reference your own data on the hemlock use in the current meta) So what to do about it. Well… First, hemlock alt fire needs reworked PERIOD! To have a base ability like this is unprecedented! NO other weapons even comes close in base form. Its nearest equivalent is the charged bow which uses a grenade to add explosive arrows for a number of shots. THIS is where the devs should have gone with this rework…. Not base kit (rolling my eyes) Grab the new hemlock, grab an arch star, spend 4 seconds charging the hemlock, you get 3 shots with EMP grenade on 15s cool down, or three shots with reduced effect… honestly, you guys just need to reel this thing in, it’s way too powerful and cheap! Second, you could make it a gold tier attachment or some rare pickup. Honestly, I don’t care how you do it, but you need to reduce the prevalence in the game to keep control legends viable. Whichever way you choose will be better than what you have done. Now for counter arguments. For all those touting this new weapon, I’m willing to bet you’re not fans of control legends and probably rarely play control legends; if you do play control, i bet they’re not your main. In either case, while I’m sure some of you laud this new alternative fire mode for its ability to uproot entrenched teams, I encourage you to think objectively about the time, resources, and tactics you spend (with hemlock) compared to what you used to. I think any “fair” reasonable person would come to the conclusion that the cheap cost associated with uprooting fortifications with the new hemlock is unbalanced and unprecedented in Apex. The cost simply isn’t there to justify the impact on the entire meta and I challenge anyone to find an equivalent change in the whole of Apex history. There, off my soap box. Devs, I hope you take the free advice, because you need to do something.Can you please perma ban the cheaters?
literally every single one of them is back in the game now, level 20's running around with perfect aim and esp, EVERY single match has at least one blatent one. This is ridiculous at this point, I refuse to spend any money on your game if it stays like this, this is the reason I stopped playing for years and its getting to that point again
Item shop info inconsistencies for mythic weapon skins
Hey , recently i was browsing the items hop while in queue and noticed how mythic skins don't specify which weapon they are for , while the ones in the exotic shop do. I think this info could easily fit without creating any visual clutter and i attached an example. I understand that they are a set , as apposed to the ones in the exotic shop so it shouldn't necessarily be displayed in the product card , but when clicking on it i don't see why it wouldn't specify the weapon.
