Make Strikepack cheating

Using a strikepack is cheating it bypasses the gun attributes to make them more powerful it should be seen as such and have penalties for those who use it. Simple to find out with rate of fire

@matzesingt Not hard at all. Watch them fire a 301 hemlok or flatline on single fire. Which is why i said if you got video of them shooting it on single fire. Hideouts will take action.

@E9ine_AC The problem is that it’s not a proove it’s just an assumption, so even if he knows that the guy uses it, he wants to proove it cuz if his assumption is for some reason wrong that would harm the game massively

Developers Obviously don’t wanna make any false bans so just banning cuz he is sure someone is cheating without having any valid proove is something they don’t wanna do I guess.

Ofc you are right that some people are pretty obviously using macros or strikepacks etc, I’m just mentioning macros cuz we have literally the same problem there, and even if mousemacros are not allowed the chance to proove that someone actually uses them is very low, ea would need to be allowed to read out mousedrivers etc but that will not happen... mousemacros are used in literally every FPS and the bans are just not happening

So when they can’t even read out drivers, how would they be able to read out hardware

    Let me say something more about the macros.

    Its not just Apex problem, its a whole FPS problem, but they aren`t doing a thing about it. No one wants to lose a player base, and permanently banning people for macros/scripts, SP, Xim Apex, Cronus and so on, are going to hurt their income. Its lowering the player base by a lot actually, cause there is a lot more people that soft cheating than people expecting, the numbers surely are great, and banning all this people are going to first hurt your player base and of course second hurt your income, cause you are winning from your player base.

    Warzone is banning people all over the place in the last 5-6-7 months, but its still a cheat show scene. And there is so so many people on controller that are using the above methods, its just unreal. Its probably the same in Apex tho.

    Escape from Tarkov game is full with macro user, and almost all top streamers are using them, and some of them were caught or they admitted by themself that they are using it, and the fair player base of course its mad, and you know what Devs have stated ? That they are allowing some macros, but just some(what a joke), and if they find someone running macros(they don`t like) they will block/remove the macros. They won`t ban the people using it, but will block/remove the macros ..... Maybe, if you are unlucky you will eat a ban. :D

    This could pretty much tell you the whole story.

    I`m really done with the genre, until something drastically happen.
    Just coming back for day or two in Apex, when the new season appear, and thats it.
