Cheating

@DrRoughKnuckle As for your first comment, in the pc version the game is hardly playable right now since about 75% of each lobby is using cheats, and it's near impossible to get a kill since you die to rapid fire (I saw a before and after youtube video demonstrating this cheat so I know it's why I die in what seems like one shot each match). It's sad, but the devs have given several hints that they are working on a fix for this problem, though they can't tell us specifics since it would give cheaters a heads up.

As for the lgbtq+ issue, I frequently squad up with a lady I met online that is a lesbian with a Latino heritage, and she is offended by the way apex portrays both in the characters, she feels they are stereotypes of what Latinos and lesbians are and she wishes they didn't do this with the characters. My point isn't so much as to criticize the game as it is to show you can't please everybody. I'm sure some lgbtq+ people like the depictions and maybe even some Latinos like the way they are depicted, but some will always have something they don't like. Maybe the devs feel they are reflecting modern culture, or as the mod just said, "inclusive."

Yes there is a cheating issue and the cost of some things is a bit steep, however no one is forcing you to buy stuff.

As far as LGBTQ+ content in game, maybe they should do more to be more inclusive and not exclusive.

I will quote you here "As for your first comment, in the pc version the game is hardly playable right now since about 75% of each lobby is using cheats, and it's near impossible to get a kill since you die to rapid fire (I saw a before and after youtube video demonstrating this cheat so I know it's why I die in what seems like one shot each match)."

The game is quite playable, yes there are cheaters but nowhere near 75% in each lobby. If you have actual proof provide it, if not stop spreading false and or unprovable claims.

"[W]hat the Internet and its cult of anonymity do is to provide a blanket sort of immunity for anybody who wants to say anything about anybody else, and it would be difficult in this sense to think of a more morally de-formed exploitation of the concept of free speech. "

-Richard Bernstein, The New York Times-

@Asmodeus566 You are right, I have no way to prove it is an actual 75%, that is just an estimate based on my own experience and what others tell me that are placed with me in lobbies. I do need to be able to provide proof though, so I should start recording all of my game play.

I recently went from playing 4 hours per night to just an hour per night. Last night I only played 5 matches, 4 pubs and 1 tdm. Only one of those matches do I believe I lost legitimately because the other team we pushed in pubs just happened to play better and use better strategy. The other 4 matches had blatant cheats being used, such as an octane was coming from the other direction in e district and had no idea I was hiding in an alley, he did a hipfire slide at me and downed me with one hit, so even if the shot was legit he still was wall hacking. In the tdm the other team got 18 kills before we even got 1, everyone on the team agreed to just sit their controllers down and let him have it since he was a blatant cheater. (One of our team members got a sniper gun, forget which one, went on a tower and took him out from a distance a few times to mess with him, so our team got a few kills, lol)

However, that is such a small sample I suppose it isn't fair to judge all lobbies based on only 5 games, maybe in a pool of 100 lobbies only a few would be like that.

I am going to start filming my gameplay now because I think it would help things, maybe I could even play better by analyzing my own play, and if they ever ask for proof from a game where I report a player at least I'll have it.

@AymCTL 

Don't worry. And that's how players see and know how it is. Mere templates and talk for the good image of the company itself will not change this.

Apparently he either doesn't play or doesn't play Apex enough to see how terrible the lobby looks on PC and how many people use wallhacks or various types of scripts to eliminate recoil. 

Maybe he plays in a lobby of only beginners and doesn't see any cheaters there. I have the opportunity to play with people from lvl 1 to predator (sometimes in one lobby and it's funny) and see what a predator can do and what some low lvl can do sometimes. It's just ridiculous, but oh well... We can only throw up our hands and wait for "corrections"...

PS. I'm just wondering how your EAC doesn't detect something like this and kick the player out of the game? -> 

Hey @Miss_Apex_B4_s20 removed the video as videos showing cheating or what looks to be cheating never goes anywhere good and we don't allow name and shame on the boards.

If you suspect another user of cheating please report them using the link above.

First off the post is not templated and is not posted for the good image of the company.

Secondly I paly the game avidly on PC since day one. Yes I do see cheaters from time to time and report them.

There is a cheater issue however it is not 75% of the lobbies.
