I don't know about you, but now I started meeting people with low levels, such as 20, 30, 50, with the best badges for 20 kills in one game or 4000 damage. I've never seen anything like this before. Now I see such people in the lobby very often.
I know how hard it is to make such badges, so the question is whether everyone actually smurfs now or whether we have a really huge problem with low-level cheaters.
More and more often I feel like I am being scanned by the walls. I can't see or hear the enemy yet, but I immediately get shots.
I also have the impression, like the guy above, that the problem with cheaters is huge, but now it's rare to meet someone who comes straight at you with 100% aim. I have the impression that now a huge part of cheaters play "intelligently", mainly using wall hacking and possibly configs and anti-recoils.
The direction this game is heading is probably just a slow death. I don't see any chances in the current game. In 99 out of 100 games I'm just cannon fodder, whereas half a year ago I had a KD of 2.20. This is a nightmare.
@Blekerodo Respawn gifts those badges to some players, i cant even count the number of matches with people parading 4K and 20 bomb badges that did a fraction of my damage and i never got one of those badges myself ... so its likely a scam.
@r1ggedgame On what basis are such statistics presented, because I don't understand?
Is it that during this worst Apex event in history it is not possible to earn badges and people who report it and send screenshots of the results receive these badges in this way?
If not, can you tell me what exactly it was about and on what basis were these badges awarded?
- @Blekerodo With that i mean, those people get super easy matches at one point, matches you will never get.
@r1ggedgame From what I've heard, it's easy to "cheat" this system, usually at the beginning of a new season. You generate 1 kill and die on purpose in the next, e.g. 20-30 matches. Supposedly, with KD 0.1 you go to the bot lobby, where obtaining such badges is trivial.
I don't know how true it is, but I saw such a video on YT once.
Only thing for me is that I have never seen so many low lvl accounts with top badges before. I just don't know what's going on here.
