@Midnight9746Sounds like anonymous mode on fortnite players just get named anonymous#287 or something like that, the way fortnite does it your squadmates can still see your real name but everyone else will see it as anonymous but im not sure if apex is doing it the same way I didn’t even know apex had it it seems like it will make it harder to get players banned for hacking but im assuming their real name will still be recorded for reports like fortnite does it
Edit: Nvm i guess I read your post wrong you said it made everyone else’s names random so I guess its more of a streamer mode than an anonymous mode for yourself
- @FaIIenAngeI777 When it's on, you'll see Player 245, Player 623, and such.
