Re: Starting to feel let down by the lack of anti-cheats and bans
Apex’s anti-cheat team is seriously letting the console community down.
How are people who have been cheating for multiple seasons still getting away with using Zens and Titans? You run into the same names every split, using Havocs and Devotions to beam people from 300 meters with virtually no recoil. These aren’t subtle cheats either.
What’s even more frustrating is that some of these players literally stream on TikTok, brag about what they’re doing, and somehow they’re still playing every day. Meanwhile, we’re constantly told the anti-cheat team is “cracking down” on cheaters. Where? Because we’re still seeing the same players in our lobbies.
At this point it feels like almost every Pred lobby on console has people abusing third-party devices. So what’s the point of the report button? Does it even work? Is anyone actually reviewing these reports? How many reports do you need before action is taken?
People are getting tired of wasting their time. They’re leaving Apex for games like Fortnite, Marvel Rivals, and Call of Duty because they’re tired of feeling like they’re fighting cheaters instead of other players.
It’s been years of this. The community has been reporting it for years. We love Apex—that’s why we’re still here asking for something to change. But if nothing is done, the game will keep losing legitimate players while the cheaters keep playing.
At some point, the biggest threat to Apex won’t be a lack of content—it’ll be the players who stop logging in because they no longer believe the game is being protected.
