Re: CHEATING is AGAIN OUT OF CONTROL

@RayleenKovacs https://discord.gg/k6feeKNK join the fun.

Indeed last week of the split when all lazy dumb hackers want to go for the trail or a badge is just insane.

Same experience. 2 days ago I played first 4 games in ranked Diamond lobbies - the first two my squad got destroyed by 100% hackers (reported both), the second two games matchmaking made its job as per usual and I had to see my brainless squad die and camp whole game. 1h of pure pleasure right there.

From my experience though it was not that bad in season 8 (got to Platinum lobbies) and 9 (Diamond) - then I used to report like <10 people a week, now this treshold is met within 2 days or faster.

But I guess by now people understood that they get bans only for badmouthing and hacking is ok in Apex. Not sure what are those cases who are here in forums complaining about false perm ban - I guess they had to be using hacks so openly that like 100+ ppl reported them a day and only then Respawn did something, as my reported videos from July and August still have not been watched by anyone from their side: https://prnt.sc/1xqryhf (all views are either mine or people I distributed video to).
Yes July and August = 2+ moths to process e.g. ban of high level predator at a time bossting two full aimbot hackers.

I would write you a word of advice here but I can't otherwise I will be banned again for at least 7 days 🙂 but I am sure you will figure it out.

    Yesterday - every 2nd game in ranked was ruined by hackers.

    Today - 3 games, 2 games with 100% aimbotters that won the game, 1 game made top 4 with what seemed to be at least two squads of wallhackers (reported) and did not have a chance to spectate the 1st palace winners, but given the competition, I would not be surprised if they hacked as well.

    My suggestion to the community - when this sh starts aka late push to masters by all hackers, account boosters, smurfers and "playing with friends" ppl just stop playing Apex for a week or two. F that. Until ratings remain high Respawn will have 0 incentive to do anything about this crazy abuse, I bet they don't even have a solution for aimbot detection nowadays seeing e.g. today where 2 clanmates where full on aimbotting with 1000-s of kills and one dude showed off in his banner even stats from season 7 <- dude has been around (and probably hacking) for at least a year+

    I personally will do that if I make it till the end of season 11, which 100% be my last one if I see same thing going on in Diamond lobbies as soon as I reach them - waste of time as after D4 you are just expected to join the hacker club or be cannonball meat to them.

    @EshshshssWhat region are you on at the moment? My friends breeze through diamond and hardly ever seen cheaters im wondering if it is worse in one region than the others. Even in my lobbies i hardly see them but im on the East Coast. (not at all saying that cheating does not exist i encounter them myself.)

    @E9ine_AC EU, Amsterdam, London, Frankfurt servers most of the time. I also see many players with Asian character nicknames - not sure if that indicates their location but I hear that some players do come to EU server despite having 100-150 ping because I heard that e.g. mid-south Asia servers are just unplayable due to hackers.

    I have played a few games recently in NY and Dallas - actually the situation was a bit better there also I felt that lobbies are actually easier - maybe because of the fact that there are fewer cheaters :D

    @Eshshshss Yea i can not speak for those servers i rarely play on them. As for Asia scene they do indeed play other servers to advance. Not because of ping or stuff like that more so their cheaters over there are quite insane and the lobbies eventually just died down where it would take ages for them to finally get into a match.

    @E9ine_AC well I have heard and seen "pro" streamers do exactly the same, even nr.1 and nr.2 Pred overall did it in one stream - try to play South America servers expecting that they will be easier than NA, they failed, it was funny for me.

    Also, I am sure people who are not forced to grind all day also use well-known "exploit" where you play early in the day when most of the players are some younger, less smart/wise school kids who quite often have boosted accounts as they tend to spend money on such activities in Apex more than adults (assumption) - again much easier to gain points.
    I personally feel this every time I do have time to play during the first part of the day on weekends. My biggest swing was 900 points when I gained 400 during the day and lost 500 during the evening/night.

    @Eshshshss I play from morning to night. I can say on New York servers the sweats are there no matter the time of day. I am queued against tons of players or killed by tons of players with 50k up to 120k kills on a legend. So the early morning thing may apply some places but for me im facing a lot of very very good players no matter the time of day. New York is also where a lot of pro players play. I have ran into Aceu, Hal, Rogue, Sapppynuts and more on those servers. Tiimmy and Aceu was typically morning run ins.

    @Eshshshss Hahahaha reported. That's like a note that goes straight into the trash bin... 80% OF PC PLAYERS CHEAT. Respawn and EA won't do anything proactively (encrypt the data). They made 1.6 BBB BBBBBILLION from Apex Legends as reported in July.

    The Easy Anti-cheat can be cracked by a 4th grader. The "report" feature guess NOWHERE. Respawn only bans when streamers with large audiences are watching... They DO NOT care and WON'T.

    July 2019(2.5 years ago) they were up to 700,000 Bans. Since then it's welllllll past a 3 million. That's 3 million people they can't get to pay em.

    Cheaters are here to stay! It makes ZERO business sense to ban em. That would be like firing your drug dealer because she gave too many free samples out.
