my account in cheaters lobby

without a cheat apex put me in the lobby of cheaters. i almost reach lvl 800 and i have 14k+ kills and i opened almost 500 apex pack where i got my kunai, its my account since they released apex game, i always play solo where people sometimes want to play with me and add me and the reason(maybe) how i got this penalty. i contacted ea support and they say they will do something about it but its almost 3 months ago now i hope someone in ea see my feedback and i hope they will do something. sorry for my english also have a good day!

  • @McDo001Pretty sure cheaters are in every lobby no matter what. Seen people 360 no scope + headshot with no issues, slide down a hill and shoot through their backs, and people flat out pre-aiming before you get within enough distance to be heard.

    @Midnight9746 im sure im in cheaters lobby the lobby where they put players cheating ingame because when i queue in play apex mode its always only me left in the ship and in rank mode only me queueing

  • @McDo001 Like @Midnight9746 said - "Cheaters are in every lobby.", but I don't understand you - you're banned from the game with reason cheating or they suspended your account from Origin?

    @OhhhBABYOhhh  im not banned ingame or suspended i heard respawn update that some cheaters they dont just ban them immidiately  they put them in a lobby or server  where they can fight each other thats why i saying its a cheaters lobby/server i dont know why they put me there because most of my game i play solo and i play many random people and some invited me in squad i dont know who among them are hacking.

    @OhhhBABYOhhh  probably but still i hope respawn take an action with that issue its so frustrating cuz i spend a lot of money ingame

    So where did you get the information that Respawn stopped banning players and put them in special "cheat lobbies" instead? Never heard of it and it seems rather unlikely.

    @BabbediboopiThey basically have an "exclusive" server, where spam bots and suspected cheaters are put, to keep them from infesting the public servers... Not many posts about it any more, was a lot more during summer...

    This is from a previous update from Respawn:

    CHEATING

    We know reports of cheaters, especially in Ranked, have been a hot topic so this week we also wanted to provide a little visibility into some of the work that’s been going on behind the scenes to combat cheating:

     

    • Using machine learning to create behavior models that detect and auto ban cheaters.

    • Requiring TFA in certain regions on high risk accounts.

    • Improving detection that identifies and bans new spam accounts before they are used.

    • Ongoing work to adapt to new cheats.

    • Matchmaking that matches detected cheaters and spammers together.

    • Investigating how people party up for matches. Even if you are not specifically using a cheat, partying up with cheaters is still cheating.

    • Increasing resources whether that be people or tech.
