Re: Apex legend feedback? trash

Hi, @IGuruDevI 

We've all been playing games for a long time over here and feel the same way, cheaters suck. They are unfortunately in a lot of games, including non-EA titles and it's a constant battle within the industry. The Apex Legends team is committed to combating cheating going forward. We do not have any information on whether Respawn plans to take an approach to it like other game companies have as you mentioned, but this was their latest official response around this topic earlier last month.

CHEATERS

As of today we’ve banned over 355K players on PC through Easy-Anti-Cheat. The service works but the fight against cheaters is an ongoing war that we’ll need to continue to adapt to and be very vigilant about fighting. We take cheating very seriously and care deeply about the health of Apex Legends for all players.

We are working on improvements to combat cheaters and we’re going to have to be pretty secretive about our plans. Cheaters are crafty and we don’t want them to see us coming. With that said, we can share some high levels things we’re doing:

  • We are reaching out and working directly with experts, both within and outside of EA, in this area that we can learn from.

  • Scaling up our anti-cheat team so we have more dedicated resources.

  • We are adding a report feature on PC to report cheaters in game that goes directly to Easy-Anti-Cheat.
