Control is bad, here’s why

Though Control as a gamemode isn't flawed, what you're complaining is a whole different issue.

This affects the entire game as a whole, a gamemode isn't just bad because of cheaters.

There are always plenty of measures taken to battle cheaters, though there will always be breakthroughs on both sides.

Even if cheaters are actively being banned, with Apex being a F2P game, there will be always a certain amount of cheaters.

Certain regions have more, so switching to another datacenter could also help getting rid of said cheaters.

@BigMacAttack8u Matchmaking just broke itself and put people into a control game WITHOUT filling out either teams fully. Since it was a 5 v 7 (one of the enemy Octanes left the match at the start, and they were the only player to have actually leave the match), the enemy team just took their base, B, and spawn killed us at our base. This was NOT fun and the matchmaking - including the servers - needs a heavy overhaul and rework so that they could actually WORK, no more excuses EA/Respawn!

All the modes are also just flooded with cheaters and smurphs. Its so obvious when someone peaks you from behind a rock, already pre-aiming at your head when they were suppose to have had ZERO idea you were there, and they hit all headshots with a gun like a Wingman, or shoot you long range like a sniper, using an R-99. Its so obvious that no one cares about this game and its a shame.

@BigMacAttack8uApex is the only game I've played for this long, (other than Minecraft), in which I've tolerated issues, bugs, server lag, cheaters, etc.

Like for some reason I just enjoy playing the game. It just be nice if the game actually got the attention it needs, instead of being ignored.

I also haven't spent money on this game since like Season 6, because its hard to invest in skins and such when they're not only overpriced, but also pointless when the game can just die any day now. Like, I didn't even buy anything during events besides Wraith's Voidwalker skin and one for Valkyrie. It just doesn't feel worth it, nor should heirlooms cost people $300-500.

EAC (easy anti cheat) is already one of the best anti-cheats your game can have. It's also pretty quick on the bans, too. the problem isn't the anti-cheat, its apex's "free to play" marketing technique that's hurting them when it comes to cheaters. think about it. lets say you get banned for cheating, no problem. it will take you less than 5 minutes to create a new email, steam account and EA account and get right back into a game lobby cheating. doing this repeatedly is no problem for the cheater, they will do it as many times as they have to if they know they can get right back into lobbies. Apex needs to make it harder, or longer, for cheaters to get back. so long, to the point where its just not worth the time anymore for the cheater ot make new accounts. because right now, its so fast and easy, its laughable. 

control is terrible. worst mode in apex history. and thats before taking into account that they cant even put the game together properly
