CRONUS-ZEN ISSUE

XBOX and PlayStation are being over run with cronus-zens. Why hasn't anything been done to stop it from ruining everyone's game yet? On top of the usual game issues such as, Getting shot through doors and walls. Players playing on 250ping to gain and advantage and the usual game update and then 10 bugs and game crashing problems. The cronus-zen has become the one thing I hate the most about the game, Players are abusing Scripts and if the game is barely playable as it is and most players I know have quit playing, Then the scripts are going to keep getting better and better and apex is going to fall off and cheaters an Boosters will own Apex Legends in no time. I love playing Apex I have 3 heirlooms but why would I continue to play a game that doesn't care about a player like me and my opinion on whats most important to start to change the game for the better of everyone. Ranked right now in the UK on London Servers, Is completely unplayable and sure they changed map, The first thing I heard is that Preds and bronze are fighting each other. So that was it for me. I am officially quitting playing apex until you get a solid anti cheat for console players. Or fix the issues with being shot through solid objects or high ping abusing players. Good bye and thanks for the memories...I guess.

  • @E9ine_AC By this same token using 3rd party voice chat is cheating too. When is EA going to start banning for not using the authorized in-game voice chat? After all it is a violation of the ToS being that there is an authorized in-game voice chat provided and the ToS is very specific about using only "authorized" software as you have pointed out.

    @OldTreeCreeper I have seen people use unauthorized 3rd party chat programs (discord/team-speak) to Engage or assist in cheating or other anti-competitive behavior (such as boosting, collusion, and match or matchmaking manipulation) a violation of the ToS that I reported. You say 3rd party chat programs don't give an unfair advantage, then why outline the illegitimate use of it in the ToS and provide an authorized option?

    Still doesn't change the fact though that 3rd party voice chat is an unauthorized program that is technically prohibited by the ToS as EA has provided an Authorized in-game voice chat to prevent the illegitimate use of 3rd party voice chat software that I outlined.

    Let's be truthful here anytime you use a 3rd party voice chat and merely saying "that dude over there killed me" to players that are alive, gives them an unfair advantage as the provided in-game voice chat prevents this collusion.

    Also 3rd party chat bypass' EA services in-game voice chat meant to prevent collusion. This is a violation of the ToS for bypassing EA Services and anytime your character is dead and you give out any piece of in game information that is collusion and a violation of the ToS, I would argue this is the most common form of cheating/anti-competitive violation of the EA ToS in the game, and you are saying it is allowed.

    Hey folks,

    This thread is getting pretty derailed and into some pretty off-topic hypotheticals that really aren't necessary.

    Something like Discord is perfectly fine to use as an alternative to in-game chat, for example.

    Locking it down here as this really is not a productive thread.
