Re: All of your cheaters are back on Xbox under new accounts

@DarthValtrex You can't have hacks on xbox...

Do you mean people who create new accounts then wreck lower ranks because they are unsure of their worth?

    @DarthValtrex It is extremely difficult to run hacks on xbox, because you can't download hacks onto the xbox directly, but you can transfer them from PC if my knowledge is correct, which I doubt it is. The reason there are not many hackers on xbox is because why transfer hacks onto xbox when you could just do it on PC? Only dedicated people will do that. And even then the hack has to be on the same client as everyone else in order for it to work. This is just from my knowledge which I'm not 100% sure about. I'm sure someone more qualified than me could explain it much better, or prove me wrong. If you are finding godly players, either they are probably using xim, kbm or an alt account. Referring to your G7 example, they could've
    a) gotten lucky
    b) be using one of my 3 examples
    or c) possibly hacking, but I don't know how.

    Also what servers are you on? I'll test if it's this bad myself.

    @CrazyPlays54 Oregon.. I guess it could have been. But it was like 5-6 games in a row.

    I had one shoot me through the doors at Lava Fissure. I close the doors behind me and the bullets were coming right through the door. It was impressive and it was not lag related.

    @DarthValtrexI play ranked Oregon GCE-1, maybe they are lagging badly? (EDIT: Sorry, just saw you said not lag related) (I should know how it feels, I play on 225 ping. I think they stuffed it up, because it feels better than my so called 60 ping on Sydney servers.)

    I have to say I don't experience many cheater problems, but I only play ranked on Oregon. I'm gold so maybe you are in plat+ or silver/bronze?. Or maybe you are playing the regular mode.

    Not playing in ranked, I switched to the salt lake server and it’s better. There was another player complaining of being shot through a loot bin earlier. The Oregon servers are non-stop issues for me which is odd because I’m in CA. I hate the Oregon servers.

    @CrazyPlays54 There is definitely something going, there are non-stop new account Champion. Players below level 100. Real world they might piggy back a win off of a friend.. But one game after another? Doubt it..
  • I just laughed at the guy saying there are not cheats on xbox. You cute man, you cute.

    @CrazyPlays54There is no way it’s not cheating. Just had a level 51 head shot me with 2 or 3 shots from a long bow. He basically soam fired the long bow and hit 3 head shots in a row. No way a level 51 is doing that. He basically shot through a rock too. I spectated him for a bit, now doubt he was cheating.

    Having looked on google all I find are dodgy looking links. None of the videos on YouTube show console footage and all of the reliable sources found say that it is not possible without opening up the console. The only thing I have found is the modded controller the strike pack. Happy to say I’m wrong but I can’t find the evidence. Please share a link?

    I think people are definitely using keyboard and mouse along with scripts for certain guns. The 99 being the main one.

    @DarthValtrex could you post some clips of when this happened and you spectating them? Could be that they were lucky, smurfs, or K&M.

    I played last night and won "piggy-backing" two games in a row. However one of my team mates was absolutely ridiculous. This is BRONZE ranked, and this player ended the game with FOURTEEN kills and nearly 3k damage. I repeat, that's BRONZE ranked!!

    They were just mowing people down, so brazen about it they couldn't wait to sprint to the next bunch of enemies and destroy them. It was suspicious a.f. I wanted to report them, but no idea how to do that - this is on Xbox One but there's no way anyone is THAT good unless cheating. It's possible they were just a saddo who reset their account but I can't see why. If you're that good - and I mean godlike "skill" - you'd want to try and get to Predator rank and even play for cash. 

    It's pretty regular to see this as well. Sniper shots being unerringly accurate, people just not missing you no matter what you do, getting "three shotted" with purple armour. It's a shame because when you play a "real" game it's the best game available. The cheating is becoming more and more prevalent and the issue with more cheaters is it even means people like myself will consider doing it, just to keep up.

    What do EA say about it?

    @Max1mu5Prime Well thank you for the compliment xD. I did not get 3K dmg tho... do I still count as a cheater (which I take as a compliment as I dont cheat) or godlike?

    You must understand... everybody must begin from bronze at one point. Alot of ppl just dont play ranked so when they dominate, it might look like they’re cheating but they are actually new to bronze

    @aisthebestletterI don't know that they are, I have helped a few people who were trying to use M&K with a ZIM. When I say help, I mean convinced them to just play with a controller. They could not get it to work. I finally convinced them to just copy my settings and try playing with a controller. Apex does not have the greatest setting customizations for running M&K. Now BFV has some major customization options, so I could see it being possible on there. But I don't know about Apex, it's also why we frequently see posts on here asking for M&K "support" or customization options in the settings department.

    There are a few players I've watched who I would not be surprised if they were running a modified controller and some recoil macros. But I don't want to accuse them of cheating, know some people who are just crazy good at recoil control. When I stand still I can almost fire the R-99 without showing any recoil at all. Now I can't do it in game (yet) because I have to track targets and try to throw some movement into the mix. But I know people who can do all 3 no issue.

    Coming back on a new account. They would likely have to buy a new xbox.

    Surely they can just sign in on a different account? The example I was using was as I say on bronze, my colleague playing with me (so this isn't a salty rant, I won after all!) had a basic Bangalore skin and no real trackers, and was low level, yet absolutely blasted through people like they weren't there. They barely got scratched. I was downed once and it was the other team-mate brought me back, there was just something clearly weird about the whole thing.

    Some streamer entering a diff account at a low level to look good on YouTube or Twitch, maybe? 18 kills and 3k is right up there, I believe there's threads here about how people will collab just to get a 4k badge, which tells you how hard it is. Perhaps it's valid to say that this persons other squad members got 3 (maybe 4) kills between them (I certainly only got 2). It's unnaturally high.

    @Max1mu5Prime Well, it still means almost nothing. Yes it can be a smurf account, but I also have characters I barely play but never show my lvl. If you put noob badges, ppl will think you’re new or just suck. Maybe it was someone like that? Otherwise def a smurf.

    After the split thing even preds can be bronze, thats why I said what I said

    @apostolateofDOOM <— if you see this guy’s name in bronze in your team but with low lvl badges, beware. This guy isn’t some low lvl/skill person xD. He’ll be dominating bronze lobbies on his own while his teammates are still dropping from the ship XD.

    Bit pathetic if that's all it is, but I'll just deal with it. So are we pretty adamant that cheating on Apex (particularly at low level) is pretty much never happening? Be good to put my mind at rest and just, er, git gud instead of moaning!
