@Popa2caps EA tos section 6 "rules of conduct" as of 19 January 2022:

FYI @ImDetonator_ 

When you access or use an EA Service, you agree that you will not:

  • Modify any file or any other part of the EA Service that EA does not specifically authorize you to modify.

Seems straightforward that you are risking a ban, console or not 😃

@Popa2caps 

My son plays on pc and I encourage him not to break the tos from the point of fair play. I also wonder how you can assert "most streamers/players" do it, as it is unlikely you know of more than a few?

@OldTreeCreeper Graphic settings are graphic settings. They are meant to be set, and they dont even give you any advantage. When you remove shadows, you ruin your visuals and you may even get killed when you dont see shadow of some guy that landed near you. I was playing with heavy tweaked config from very beginning of apex and Im still not banned. There is difference between tweaking visuals and changing gameplay elements
