just the same as any other season , before diamond 5 it's super easy then once you reach d5 the only cheater/3stack lobbies make it unplayable.
that's why there's so much smurf.

That's just a really good "new Player" LOL.
Did you report them, I hope so, maybe it would get rid of one more Smurf.

@Asmodeus566Have you ever use report function in game in case of cheaters?
- 2 years agoAlways trow report. But I don't think they works good. So much wall hacks in this season. Kills from the smoke and can't hide at all they find you everywhere. so much soft aim wheen scope not on you but still get demage. EA don't care, they always can make new game and close apex, same like with Titanfall

Didn't Respawn say them selves that smurfing is basically aloud? I remember reading the post. Look, we all know numbers impress and keep stake/share holders happy, as it deceives the ignorant.
It just seems hopeless and pointless to tell ppl to report something Respawn Devs already made clear is fine. I've reported dozens and dozens of smurf accounts over the last 3-4 seasons, and I would still see them playing.
I would guess out of all the issues in regards to reporting - smurfing would be by far the easiest to detect. Really simple math here. Yet the smurfs continue to plague without fail.
Could you imagine the drop in the player base if every single smurf account was removed tomorrow! Guess that wouldn't be so good for business.

> "Didn't Respawn say them selves that smurfing is basically aloud?"
Basically yeah. The rule is that we're not allowed to "stomp on the lower skilled players".
In other words, as long as we're playing in the lobbies we're meant to be in, its fine. Although this doesn't make any sense to me because other games, (like Valorant), would ban you for doing this because it would be seen as a smurf account. Its strange that Apex allows alt/smurf accounts in the first place, (while also having a report option for reporting these accounts).

Hasn't Respawn officially stated that secondaries are not technically cheating, apparently depending on the intentions of the player? I clearly remember someone in an official capacity saying that a streamer setting up a secondary to do a rookie to predator run was A-OK. That attitude came as close as anything to driving me from the game, but then I had to remind myself that I just don't often see these people in my lobbies and how much do I really care if they foul things up for platinum and diamond players? Still, in principle it's wrong, and Respawn condoning it is even worse. A lot worse. Perfect example of the co-dependent, toxic relationship between dev and creators.- AreYouShivering2 years agoNew Ace
