Using macros on Apex Legends
Can I get banned for using gaming peripheral macros?
Forum Discussion
So then I take it you'll be banning Dieagosaurus the Twitch streamer and some others? There's plenty of his highlights where he has his mouse cam on clearly showing P2020 macros, Mastiff Animation cancel Macros etc. Just watch the finger on the side of his mouse when he uses those weapons and how fast the p2020 shoots like an r99 and the mastiff is basically as fast as double tap eva with no delays between the 2 shot bursts.
He simply holds down the side button and blows people away in .3 seconds. He's a good player, good aim but abuses the hell out of macros as do a TON of streamers.
So are they getting off because they bring attention to your game and have a camera in front of their face?
If you want a youtube video link with Timestamps I'll happily give it to you, I have nothing personal against the guy but watching streamers that are average/slightly above average get predator because of the insane amount of exploits or, we'll just say methods against your TOS and clearly stated here should be dealt with then, that's a lot of popular people showing your game.
@HardcoreCetraTrue. I have seen many streamers using macros for no recoil and no one is getting banned. It is not fair me trying to get better in the game with the full recoil settings and some other pathetic kids can abuse the macro. A lot of them already have over 20k kills in a lifetime and I am 100% sure they have the macro. Me playing at the normal settings possible I have now in season 4, 5k lifetime kills and 744 hours played. It would be nice for the game to invest in a security guard anti-cheats and macros. Let's see then how many players will be left playing the actual normal game...
This game is all about the numbers. Make it cool and get as many as possible to play.
Make the heros political correct and avoid critical press at any cost. That’s fair enough, if you want another focus you should move on.Macros: not allowed, but we look the other way if you do.
No muzzle flash: It’s not in the menu, other than that it’s up to you.
Reports: Just a little something we have in the game to make everyone happy. We might hire someone to follow up some of the reports in the future, but for now we really need to focus on content.
Aimbot: You should be fine as long as you don’t use a cheap one. Just don’t overdo it, should you happen to kill one of our devs or one of our sponsored twitchers you’ll probably get banned.
Ahh, you play with a controller I hear? Heck, then we’ll just throw in aimbot for free. Enjoy
