CHEATERS… DO SOMETHING

The amount of people cheating in apex, especially solos, is ridiculous. Why can nothing be done to stop this? Very disappointed that I’ve spent so much money on this game for it to end up like this.

  • @JohnCartersBum My suggestion is to not spend money on games that refuse to do more about the cheating situation. It needs to become a priority. I understand that it's probably not easy, but there's definitely a lot more that could be done.

    I would have no problem spending money if they focused more on solving the issue of cheating. Unfortunately, the majority of the funds seems to go everywhere else. The game has some very high end assets, and they look beautiful, but for me, that stuff doesn't matter if the game is ruined by a cheater every other round. Cronus users must have a great config for the Havoc this season, everyone using it seems to have absolutely ZERO recoil.

    i played a round of solo and was killed by back to back cheaters with aim bot and walls all head shots. Game is in such a good state. 🙌

  • Dead laughing at this short but yeah... I had to drop Apex like a ton of hot bricks a few months ago, cheats we're just too much to deal with on console right now. They did get some money out of me but I definitely wont put in any more unless the problem gets solved. Which may be never!

  • This is a perennial problem with Apex. 

    The number of cheaters grows until the the game becomes almost unplayable, then there is a clear out, the game returns to being fun again for a while until the cheaters come back.

    There are just a lot of sad kids out there who want to be like the pro players but have no skills so they cheat. 

    It's bad at the moment for sure. Just got kill buttoned in the game 3 times this evening. 

    Time to find something else to fill my spare time!

    "The number of cheaters grows until the the game becomes almost unplayable, then there is a clear out, the game returns to being fun again for a while until the cheaters come back."

    .... or - The number of cheaters grows until the game becomes unplayable and then Respawn gives up on the game, creates a new one, moves all the characters, guns and abilities over to that one and gives it a new name. And the money rolls in once again.

    Rinse and repeat.

    Well there arent online PvP or even PvE games where you would not encounter cheaters. 
    If it has stats or a leaderboard someone will cheat. All of the bigger PvP games like Fortnite, COD have the same issues. 
    And of course with the stats/leaderboard systems on even PvE likes of Helldivers 2, Aimlabs or even Fishing Planet there are cheaters. 

    So its more of online multiplayer issue with stats ego boost on the games where you arent playing PvP. 
    I guess its lack of self-confidence & -value. These people need some IRL hugs & comfort from someone. 

    In games like Apex its more of an arms race. Playing against three stacking pros leads to casuals looking for exploits, leading to soft cheats, leading to hard cheats.
    All looking for the same dopamine fix.
