How can we remove in-game advert notifications/banners?

    @Astropithecus_93 Extremely short answer? No there is no way of moving it without breaking the TOS.

    I too will keep this short. You should not see the banner pop up more than once during a game play session unless you are crashing, getting errors or are abusing the exploit to disconnect/reconnect yourself from a game so you do not lose points in ranked.(which means it will constantly pop up on your screen). Every time you are killed and returned to the lobby then you should be "readying up" while looking/using your phone (as I do most of the time). Naturally everybody sees a specific part of the screen when we look at something, which is denoted in the following links:

    So it is not your natural instincts looking at that particular banner in the bottom right corner, but you specifically. If it REALLY bothers you that much just play another game. I stand behind Respawn on this decision on a unified front.

@DaleWWilson95Calling someone a racist is the insult from 5 years ago. It's been thrown around so much, its about as shocking as hearing someone say their name.

And the actual definition of racism has to do with thinking a specific race is superior. You obviously don't think all races are equal, so that makes you a hypocritical closet racist. (Aren't you shocked to your core because I used the word "racist"!??!?!?!?!? So scary, right?)

These brainless immature accusations only make you look like you don't have the ability to think for yourself.

@4ccbf460f7b926b1 To remove it means you would have to alter the client to not display it. Which would not be allowed at all. It is something you will have to just no look at. I mean all the screen you got and you focus on one banner tag on the ui out of everything. That my friend is your problem. No one is forcing you to look at it hit play go about your day.

    @E9ine_AC EA has the right to do whatever they want to their game. But just pretend for a moment that the message was religious, or pro-Trump, lol.
    You'd have a media frenzy, riots, and dozens of trending boycott Apex movements.

    All I'm doing is calling out that a video game shouldn't be political. Just as you'd hear about constantly under my example scenarios.

      That was a risk the company was willing to take. Some got offended maybe uninstalled some like myself prolly seen it and said bleh while i believe everyone matters which dont even matter right now. But its their company to do as they wish post as they want if get offended then you do if not then you dont. Its a game like you say so why pay attention to things not game related?

        @E9ine_ACExactly, I saw it and was like whatever and started playing its no big deal I feel about the same about this as I did about those posts about bloodhounds quips being against some peoples religion, everyone has their own beliefs and backgrounds just because you are offended doesn't mean everyone else is offended by it most people will see it as a harmless thing and keep playing the game
