Make Apex Cost Money

As we all know Apex Legends is a free game, which is hurting the gameplay ALOT with aim bots, wallhackers, and teleporters. Today alone I have died to 6 cheaters. and I've only played for 2 hours. ...

@PholanxTTV I understand the points you're trying to make. How ever I like that my friends who can not afford to buy the game, can try it.

Those of us who can are in a position to can buy skins and support the game. It's a great system and it allows everyone to play and enjoy the game.

If you have an account then already you dont need to play.

so for example, Lets say I have Apex and not bought anything in the game so i am a free player.
Lets say Apex releases a notification that says “Apex Legends will become a game you have to pay for if you don't already own it, next week”
That player that has not bought anything in the past still gets to play for free because he has an account before the deadline.

This gives players time to get a free account before the deadline. And anyone who wants an account after the deadline has to pay.
Think of it sort of like a Quarantine. We put walls around the current players, they are safe. And we kick everyone who is cheating with aim bots and wall hacks and whatever's out of the quarantine. And people who want to get have to pay.

  I once propose this. Like that hackers will be reducted to nearly ZERO. Make the game cost like 30-40 euro each account, and then hackers will be doomed.

@DarthValtrex No it actually set Respawn in a dynamic where EA, the mother house, say them "you have to deliver more new assets", not "make your game a proper game (aka, playable and secure)".
There are clusterf*cks of topics here and there on hacking forums that show how they can access player data and do whatever they want with servers, and we only got a taste of it recently because they (the hackers) were so blunt they choose to strike the gamers' pleasure, instead of acting out on our game assets and money and data because of the risks compared to their "cause", but had they been angrier and more vengeful, they could have totally done that. Wipe all our data or take it and release it so that EA/Respawn lose a lot of money.

Their security is literally called a joke and they are said to "not even know what they are doing". Bad practices, obvious hacks and so on.
If you want your friends to play with you, pay their game, if it is not free.
They could even make some "squad bundles", 3 keys for reduced prices.
But event if they had to pay a little price each time, it would hinder hackers to have to create a new account each time and pay for it.
Because they precisely hack for messing with people and gaining everything without having to sweat for it.
