Heya!
I'm not sure why they Esports are PC preferred but one of the things could be the Raw input of the mouse and keyboard / the aim assist consoles give but I doubt that that would be the reason.
I found an article that maybe explains this in more detail and I get why they only limit it to PC players.
Gamer assault weekly - Why PC esports is preferred over console.
Apex isn't dying on PC and isn't filled with hackers.
Yes there are a couple but there are also mouse and keyboard players on console/players with a modded controller 😛
That article was a good read thank you,
I am only going by what I have read on the forums regarding the gaming dying and the constant abuse of hackers and you are right I've seen people use modded controllers firing a Hemlock single fire in what sounds and looks like automatic (impossible for a standard controller) so yes you are right however it is such a small minority.
I am in the process of switching over to PC but from what I have seen regarding que times the PS4 que times are instant what ever time of day but PC ques times seem to be a fair chunk slower and this would suggest to me the numbers are a lot less?
Overall I just think the game is so big on console I don't think I will ever understand why the competitions are not held on console
IMO, it probably boils down to sponsors and money.
