I like this game a lot, but it is so sad the fact that out of 10 games 1 of them, will be a guy who uses aimbot. It seems to me that ban takes so long time to be done and even if they will be banned, they can simply make a new account and join in.Okay, i understand that is a free to play game but here's my question.. How hard is to make it need a register of a phone number to be able to play it? So when a cheater that got banned cannot simple make a new account and get back in.

Agree! I have no problem linking my # to the games I play.

New account creations must must have a valid email account longer than 1 month old and a phone number also 3-7 day period that someone checks the details out to make the account active.

How EA knows if the email acc created longer than 1 mth?I's say required registered phone number will be more effective.

I guess that EA likes to keep their games as open and accessible as possible. Requiring a phone number to play a game is quite a new concept and I expect a lot of people might not be expecting it as a default requirement. I played R6:Siege which uses two-factor-verification for ranked. Apex doesn't have ranked so everyone who plays Apex would be affected by 2FV.

If you have a legit email you will have emails over the past month even a welcome email so taking a screenshot as proof would be fine.

Maybe a solution about Aimbot users?

All free to play games have verification with a phone number now its for this reason apex is having trouble against cheaters.
They just make another account in 1min.

Imagine a particularly beautiful woman that most men would desire. She loved humanity and believed everyone could live in peace, respect and harmony.

Now, this woman goes to the park to meet others, to play and to talk. What if the actions made in this park didnt have any consequencs whatsoever? Do you think she would be treated right and with respect?

In a perfect world she would. We will never have a perfect world.

You’re getting rear-ended in public and it’s not pretty. It is no wonder why some of us wonder why you keep returning to that same free, wide open park..?

Thats funny I have accounts that are linked to phones I haven’t had in years and SIM cards are easy to get first everyone asked for hardware bans what that didn’t work now they want phone verification that will not be hard to work around either but keep on asking for things that don’t help

My recommendation would be to change the aim-assist in this game to be way more effective. Thus getting rid of the need for aimbot hacks. Also, I would add radar so as to get rid of the wallhack cheat advantage. Not optimal, but it would fight fire with fire.
