Noticeable Cheaters Testing Hardware Bans

PLAYERS! Just don't insta leave a match! YOU ARE, as players, the number 1 defense in stopping cheaters! If you have nothing else to do, why not watch the other players?
Note: When you decide to do this, think of it as watching, "Timthetatman," "DrDisRespect," "DrLupo," etc. It's entertaining and you'll be able to catch some cheaters here and there.

To me, here lately, it feels like the cheaters are testing the integrity of Respawn's hardware bans. Players who play this game, and are full time Apex Legends players, like Viss and kraftyy, are having a hard time playing Apex Legends all of a sudden. It's coming off that the cheaters just don't care about the players attempting to stop them. If anything, it seems like it has brought more of the cheaters out of the woodworks.  These cheating site sellers want to get around Respawn's hardware ban systems and they will do anything to figure it out.

You, as players, need to be adamant in catching these cheaters. If you insta leave games because you want push your rank, or are pissed off because you got killed, you're really missing out on the opportunity in catching these cheaters. Please, for the love of God, stop insta quitting a match because you died. You're providing 0 service in stopping these hackers. Not everyone is a cheater, and I'm more than to admit that I'm a horrific player. So I take the time to watch. If you consider yourself as a, "pro player," then watch as well.

You would think? "Pro players," should stay around and watch because they have the best eye. So these, "pro players," should be able to distinguish who is cheating or not, and be better and doing it. Correct?

Conclusion? Stay around and watch the other players. Simple as that!

  • The problem is now there are public free hacks available and people no longer have to pay, which just makes it worse for the community as a whole because now EVERYONE can get access to them. HWID bans are bypassable for the most part. There are a few people that can't seem to get past them (This is all done through very simple research) but majority of them from just one site 400+ are able to bypass. 

    Today was the first match I've had with a hacker since BP update and now you can tell it's everyone using them because they no longer have weird names like abkf938fjdnc they just have normal names. No more Asian voice/sellers just normal people because it's now publicly available. Hopefully with the new report system they are a lot more pro-active and just HWID their whole system (especially motherboard) because that's the hardest to get around. 

    Because with spoofing and fresh installs of windows they'll just keep making more accounts anyway it hardly stops them.

  • Thanks to being able to play Apex through a Sandbox, they have found exactly what EAC is adjusting and banning. 

    Some sites now have a free  EA system unblocker, and judging from Reddit forums, its working. 

    Not only are people using Discord as a free injector for free cheats, they can now remove HWID bans for free....

    EA is going about this completely wrong.

    You need a proper anti cheat team. Not just some company that detects cheaters weeks later.
