I knew EA hasn't changed anything in season 22 (in a bad way).
They have not done anything to prevent cheaters, which they had been loudly declaring, and the lobbies are still full of people who reported cheaters, both in and out of the game, without being banned at all.
On the other hand, they seem to instantly ban normal users' accounts with no serious reason, as if to create an atmosphere of “we are doing our job properly”.
In reality, they are not doing their expected job at all, but rather, the users feel that they are not doing anything or neglecting their job.
And there is no quality control at all, with the Season 22 update still having a large number of bugs that would be obvious with a little bit of testing.

And yet, they are trying hard to collect money by introducing the Super Legend of Bangalore in a different color.

The defenders of EA and the development team will try to make excuses like “the development team and EA are working very hard,” but if you are a student, you should know that in the business world, hard work without results is the same as doing nothing, and hard work without results means nothing in the business world. You need to understand that.

Hard work and effort without results is worth nothing, and they “do it!” and those companies and business people who cannot do what they declare they will do are even more meaningless and have no value in the business world.

I can no longer stand by and listen to the company's constant “We'll do it right this time!” I'm tired of the “we'll do it right this time!
I had uninstalled the game because I was sick and tired of this company, but they said this season would be better, so I downloaded the game again and played it a few times, but nothing had changed and I got really fed up and uninstalled it immediately.
I will never come back to this game again.

I think any chance of this game coming back is lost forever this time.

    Hey folks,

    We've just released some additional info about the anti-cheat in Apex, following on from the recent discussion and acknowledgement.

    Thanks for the ongoing discussion and feedback, hopefully this is a nice (albeit brief) peek behind the curtain. We'll continue to share other updates as we get them, thanks again all!

      I'll go long stretches with low level teammates and 3 stack/smurf/cheater enemies resulting in my team getting erased in record time over and over again.  Until that stops and I feel like my teammates and enemies are actual human beings, I won't believe a thing Respawn says about what they are supposedly doing to combat cheating and improve matchmaking.  It's nice that they said something, but actions speak louder than words at this point.

        @HappyHourSumwur Yeah, the cheating issue is so bad, I've been seeing aimbotters as randoms on my team. I've been reporting them as I've see them, but they're still playing even months later. I just hope that the reports are doing something to help deal with the cheaters. We'll see, I suppose.

      @EA_Mako
      Please show us with actions and results, not words....
      How many times have you said, “I'm ready to get serious about fighting cheats!” But in the end, the situation remained almost the same.
      So please don't give me unnecessary expectations by saying big things in words until you see the results. ......

      I understand that it's hard work to prevent cheaters, and the worst are those who are breaking the game and ruining it by engaging in the “criminal act” of cheating, but to be honest, EA/Respawn is also at fault for not being able to crack down on them properly.
      The lack of proper policing creates a situation where cheaters are underestimated by criminals who use cheats and are allowed to use them with impunity.

      We've seen enough of the “we're going to do something about cheats” and we've seen enough of the “we're going to do something about cheats” and yet we haven't seen any improvement.

      So, before you go on a big rant, please show us the results first.
      Words alone are not credible at all.

      I want you to seriously recognize the fact that you have lost credibility to such an extent that you are now in a state of crisis.

      For now, I will wait and see how things go without playing for a while, but if things don't improve, I will leave apex for good, and if things don't improve this time, apex itself will have no future.
