EA and Respawn, this is a big reason people are angry

So Respawn or EA in the unlikely event that you read this I haven’t spent money on Apex in forever yet have continued to play it. Why? Well you never just sell skins by themselves anymore because you...

I don't want to take anything away from whatever it is that infuriates people about this game. But skins? Cheating is rampant, no one plays on anything but a Smurf account anymore, and matchmaking is edging ever closer to being truly random, streamers and pros, even after five long years, still manage to find ways to make the game even more of a sewer than it already is, but we're upset about the cost of cosmetics that currently have zero gameplay value, and, in another few years when the servers go dark, will have no value of any kind whatsoever?????

If they want this game to survive, they need to shut down the servers anytime there are hacks detected and cleanse the hackability from the game.
Eventually everyone will be fed up with the hackers and even the hackers will be fed up with themselves for causing the game to get shut down.
Once that happens, they'll quit buying hacks.
Then people will quit making hacks.
Because the game shutting down to cleanse the hacks will make that market useless.
And the people using the hacks want to play, not wait eons for respawn to kill their hack and then bring the game back once the hacks are dead again.

    It can't be that easy.

    Can it???

      @reconzero @Zulkiers Let's say the servers keep closing when hacks are detected like how Valorant does it.

      It won't work.

      This is because cheaters will just keep on making new hacks everytime they get detected. This is why we still have a cheating problem in the first place. Even if EA/Respawn was 100% on top of the cheating problem, we would still see cheaters. We'd see a lot less than we currently see now, but we will still see cheaters because cheaters won't stop making new cheats.

      You got to remember that those who make the cheats make bank and I wouldn't be surprised if they make more than EA, Epic Games, Blizzard, etc. combined.

      @WTF_Huitzo We can still play on their servers, its just that no one in their right mind would. I tried playing on it a few times when ques in my region were slow, and I only saw bots or cheaters. None of the players I've had as teammates or as randoms were legit players.

      It was either someone standing still, punching the air or wall, someone moving like a clueless bot, or someone with cheats cranked up to what I'd like to call "yes please++". AKA, they were hacking so much, it was impossible to not notice them cheating. I saw the same player in the kill feed killing 20+ players. Granted most of the "players" were bots.

        There is just too much to mention in regards to animosity towards rEAspawn. 

        My biggest gripe is MM. 

        Not to take away from the massive surge of cheaters, smurfs, sad audio and many other unaddressed issues. 

        But I tried to play yesterday... I have played this game since beta and at one point my highest KD was 1.89 at its peak. It now sits at 0.4. Yes 0.4 and fluctuates between 0.4 and 0.6. 

        I feel personally a part of it is I don't play as much as I used to and there are alot of good players now. Kids seem to be much better now than back in my day. 

        Yet also due to massive amounts of cheaters and really really poor and pathetic Match Making. 

        I played 7 matches and not one lasted longer than one full minute. No joke, we timed them all. After the 7 match and being decimated and completely destroyed for all of them, the very next match the MM placed me in a lobby with champion squad - one with 51,000 kills, one with 36,000 kills and the third with 72,000 kills. LOL

        How is it possible to get destroyed for 7 straight matches with not one kill and no more than 500 damage in the 7 matches combined and actually watch the MM get tougher and tougher the more I lose. Only rEAspawn. Absolutely ridiculous!  

        Whats worse is with all the complaints across every platform, every server, every forum about busted MM, rEAspawn has not said a single word in regards to why its so busted... more than ever before, no acknowledgment, no explanation not even "hey we here you, we are looking into it."  NOTHING! Complete SILENCE, as if it works perfectly.
