Official Apex Legends API

Hello,

So I'm not sure if this has already been asked before, but could we get a stats api tracker?

It seems that as of right now, the only way for players to track stats is via equipping what ever stat they want tracked on the banner of champion they're playing. This is highly inefficient and takes a lot of time. And all for this to be tracked via apex.tracker.gg

These stats are being tracked and can be shown in game, either in a champion customization screen or on the home screen where you can view your stats.

I'm proposing an official API developed by respawn/ea for some of us developers to create tools(think things like apex.tracker.gg,discord bots, twitch bots, etc)

To combat abuse, developers could be granted auth tokens that can be banned, should it be abused. It'd be really cool if this could be added to the pipline/sprint(u know, whenever the current game breaking bugs are fixed)

I'd love to be able to get more information about me and how I perform depending on the champion or say how a famous streamer/youtuber perform with different champions. This could also show the community the top players with different champions or weapons or combination of both. I think this would be really cool.

Respawn, is this possible or feasible? If it is, but hasn't been developed yet, are there any plans? and if not, could you possibly pass this feedback/suggestion forward to whichever team is responsible please?

thanks,

wanted to bump for :viz:

@shrtNme1  Not to burst your bubble or anything, but there is another current thread, which has been going since 2019, asking for this very thing. We haven't heard any updates on it in a long time, so don't get your hopes up too much! I would really like to see it, but I'm not holding my breath

I still am tbf. I am a stats nerd and love seeing this stuff...

just gon do a little bump-arino

also want to state it's now season 13 and the game has been out for 3 years. like bruh

I'll save you the hassle and tell you why they don't like sharing information.

1. They don't want people figuring out their MMR, as that leads to people deciding when to throw and when to actually tryhard.
2. They're ashamed of their secret sauce SBMM algorithm and would prefer to keep it as a black box so people can't criticize it as easily.
3. They don't want people to figure out they're using EOMM, as a subtype of SBMM. Just because you didn't copy Blizzard's patent, doesn't mean you didn't have convergent evolution with your do-it-live spitballed code, and can't claim it's not EOMM. Being slick calling it not EOMM as if it's some copyrighted term only Blizzard can use ain't it.

Gentle reminder to employees that matching newbies struggling with a hard carry duo once every 20 games on a variable reinforcement schedule is EOMM. I'm trash myself and can tell when it's my turn being carried to a win, like most of my wins. They have very lax SBMM matching constraints and don't seem to adequately enforce MMR bracketed lobbies. They just seem to use SBMM to escort people to a win on a minimum threshold for EOMM purposes, whether intentional or not.

Also to any employee reading this: I'd rather uncheck "fill teammates" and go solo into Duos and never get a win than to get thrown into a lobby I don't belong in and get yelled at by a hard carry stack. Balancing on paper for that 5% winrate metric can result in inferior player experiences, as people who are trash like me basically have to do degenerate gameplay just to survive in too hard lobbies while getting cursed at.
