Now I understand why Console players do not want anything to do with PC lobbys.

Read the title. This game is fun to play but as a PC player im sick and tired of seeing pathetic toiletbowls run rampant with aimbot and ESP and nothing seems to change. Reporting them does not do anything, EA/RESPAWN or whoever the fk is in charge of investigating reports clearly are not doing their jobs. It takes some idiot streamer to get rolled first and then tweet said cheater on twitter for action to be taken. 

You have people running around with clicker macros spamming the hell out of the flatline and R-301 because for some reason those 2 weapons have single fire even though the anvil is no longer in the loot pool. Invest in a better EAC ffs. Every season this game gets worse and worse with cheaters and you dont seem to show any effort or progress in getting this under control. 

I finally understand why Console Players do not want to be grouped with PC players in crossplay. 

There is no excuse for this garbage, and before some EA drone comes in here and copy pastes their paragraph and link about how serious they take reports please don't bother because YOU (the person copy pasting that crap) know that its nothing but bs but hey i know..its your job. 

I am asking for Keyboard and Mouse support for Console. Some might not want this because "omg lazerbeam blah blah bs" seriously , allot of players play with controllers on PC and they do just fine, the only thing you cant do is move while looting and your movement is ...not as good.

One of those problems can easily be solved if devs actually gave a * but they dont, UNLESS a cashcow streamer requests it , then my god will they jump on it.

    Now now folks, let's calm it down a little.

    Petty bickering on a forum isn't helping anybody lol.

    @RipjawsAU-TTVnah you just have no idea what you are talking about and you still make false accusations towards the developer...

    its not about your language at all, couldnt care less but making up bs is hilarious

    im pretty certain you are one of thoose boys that believes every second pro is using some kind of hacks/macro´s

  • OP is exactly right.  All you have to do is look at Modern Warfare.  Console players started opting out of cross play due to the rampant cheating from PC players.  There's plenty of players on PS4 anyway, so there's no reason for them to want to put up with the cheating.  It seems to be a huge problem for both Apex and Warzone.

    This really is nothing new.  PC platform is so open that it's very difficult for developers to stay on top of the cheating.  I spent hundreds of hours in Battlefield 2 and Battlefield 2142 on PC way back.  DICE used Punkbuster and other methods, but even then the aimbots would show up.  I haven't exclusively played a shooter on PC since those games.  If I have an option on console, I'll take it.  I prefer the controller anyway, and I was tired of spending money to upgrade my rig. lol

    I don't want to see cross-platform play

    And it's not even about the PC community...though sure, I would generally believe certain problems are more prevelent.

    It's just about the basic game.  As a console player, I'm still more on even footing with other console players, even if they're pulling other tricks.  

    I have no interest in PC play, haven't for a long time.  And I just simply want PC players to play one game, while I play something else, leaving us both happier.

    Probably, the day cross platform comes out, I would quit this and find a better BR to play.  Apex has enough problems that keep me right on the edge so that might just be the straw that does it.

    Cross platform is OK but like COD Modern Warface you are given to option out of it when searching for game session. That would be good to give choice like that

    I do prefer PC gaming but console does minimise cheating.

    Yea there are probably a minority of console players using XIM or Chronos Max (This only removes recoil, so not an aimbot as you still self aim) but for a game mostly based on situation awareness and team work, so it is less of a factor. Not as if console players have access to speed hacks or wall hacks. 

    Problem with COD Warzone and Apex is that as free games you can just create another account if you're banned.

    I wouldn't have mind paying £50 for this game or even like £5 a month to get good content releases and also means anyone getting banned has to create another account and re-buy game.

    Or if want to keep game free then introduce phone number SMS verification for sign up. Can't see anyone going through all that trouble to get new mobile numbers or using friends numbers every time they are banned.

  • @matzesingtexactly wtf are you smoking ? Which developer am i making accusations towards ? Did you even properly read my original post ? What i said was facts, the DEVELOPERS..do not seem to take action unless a POPULAR streamer points out a cheater via twitter. This isnt some bs. Cheaters get reported on a daily basis and weeks later these exact blatant parasites are still running around but as soon as a popular figure in the apex community gets killed by one action is then taken.

    Its simple. EAC in this game is non existent. reports in this game does nothing but give u a false sense of hope that the person you reported will be removed and banned but it never happens.

    Also I find it amusing how you assume I am one of those people that thinks every pro is using some sort of hack. You really are scraping the bottom of the barrel when it comes to your insults. They are pretty poor and really shows your lack of intelligence. If you have any sort of self respect then please stop because you are making a fool of yourself.

    "Which developer am i making accusations towards ?"
    "Its simple. EAC in this game is non existent. reports in this game does nothing but give u a false sense of hope that the person you reported will be removed and banned but it never happens."
    So yes you accusing EA/Respawn right there babe

    Meanwhile you are talking about intelligence, that made my day

    Since this is getting nowhere near a propper argumentation...Im done trying to argue with you, you not only have no idea what you are talking about neither do you have the slightest understanding of how to actually fight hackers.Sit in your little bubble that the developers dont care about it and be happy, i mean hey why would they care about their reputation right? or why would they care about losing players cuz of hackers right?

  • @matzesingt Your day must be pretty depressing if my response to you makes your day. But hey , keep kissing Respawns * , maybe they will give you a job.
