If im being honest
I truly believe a ban wave on soft and hard cheaters would take out such a large part of the population of players it frightens EA / Respawn to pull the trigger. Not a game goes by in Ranked that 10%...

@13lack-0ut last season I heard/experienced the situation in Diamond+ lobbies and especially during the last week of the season.
Now I am in Platinum and it feels closer to Diamond+, also I am in couple of Discord servers including https://discord.gg/Ghdz2eGH and reports of Platinum players keep coming in almost as often as Diamond+
Sad but true - when coming to a game I was warned that this is a hackers paradise and so far it seems that indeed you are more likely to get a ban for reporting hacker (disclosing his/her name) rather than him/her getting banned for obvious wallhack or aimbot usage and most importantly people start to understand that and keep pushing the limits to see at what point they actually get banned, because from what we see there is not enough security in place - I saw a report of a player who went from Bronze 4 to 10000+RP Predator in 1.5!!!! days, and there were no triggers, suspension from EA side for more than a week.

- @EREGDS Itztimmy did the bronze 4 to pred in about 36 hours last season. One thing people need to remember is just because you cannot control recoil without a stabilizer doesn't mean others cannot. The grinders literally spend hours upon hours practicing jitter aim and the recoil pattern.
- @hayhor I am not following streamers but I would assume that this dude had a lot of hours under his belt and did this famous challenge just to earn 100+k USD over 36h.
Can this be done by a random dude who hadn't played in years? Doubt so.
And let's not start that fanboy stuff about controlling recoil, jittering etc. When I came to Apex someone suggested me to look up a dude called Dazs - he is all about aim perfection. Cool, he is like the top of the world in aiming and tracking. Gets into the game and has similar success in public games as any of us who has been P4+. I asked myself a question - is it worth it?!
I mean sure it helps but it is not game breaking or comparable with people who delegate recoil and aim control to software 🙂
