What is happening with your game this week - cheaters in lobby

Hey Yoko-Ono-U-Didnt​, 

If you notice behaviour in-game that goes against our rules, please feel free to submit a report so that our Terms of Service team can take a look.

Unfortunately, we can't investigate or take action here on the forums, so submitting that report will make sure our ToS team is notified to review the situation. Thanks for letting us know! 

Don't bother, even if they ban them, it's meaningless as the aholes just immediately create another account.

I do, we all do, and you do nothing. Do you guys even play this game? Notice when theres a ban wave a whole bunch of level 20's pop up? Start actually doing something concrete about the cheating problem. I feel like if you actually banned all the cheaters your game pop would decrease by half at this point

exactly, the cheaters are literally miles ahead of anyone at respawn, its almost like respawn is selling the cheats themselves to make more profit

You have a point, I have seen level 3s playing wildcard matches, I have come across unusual in game names and most of the time it's either people on Xbox or PC as Xbox can run like a PC so it wouldn't be a surprise if they cheating on Xbox. They has been an influx of like new players and why cause they most likely got banned from another game for pulling the same things they are doing on apex. I asked one why and they said there friends played it the guy was like level 4 the games been out for 7 years like I believe they just started cause friends play it, please not that dumb

Yup, today is just night and day in terms of cheating.

Started earlier with pubs (15:00 UTC+2) in 4 games I either died to blunt cheater or there was one on my team (we of course won the game) -> went into ranked with my duo -> not even lying every game we face a cheater squad including low Plat level while we both are D3+ (but P2 Octane just solopushed us 3 with double mozams, read situation perfectly, killed every one of us without any help from his team).

I also start to notice that there are some "safe" windows for cheaters or something because experience is exactly like that - you play a day or two kinda manageable, you daily dose of 1-2 cheaters per game, and then you get days like today where you peak outside of your cover and 2-3 people instantly beam you from across the map with hemlocks and stuff, everyone focus you despite 5 teams being around as soon as you are low health. It was insane experience.

Will see how NAE are doing now - jumping into soloq ranked as we speak, but already know how it will go.

p.s. in the meantime yey EA confirmed in game that 11! players that I reported since end of May got banned...and I report like at least 10 blunt cheaters per day...calculating....90+ more to go :P

When EA will finally explain why people can't be reported in here? This rule about naming and shaming just makes no sense when we are talking about cheaters as:

a) actions against them are not taken / take days, months to be enforced
b) cheaters in many cases are dumb and create new profiles after ban naming like I cheat v.2.0 -> by exposing their names people would be able to understand that probably this "new" player is cheating as well
c) people might not play with them knowing that they cheat + fearing that they might get banned because they play with cheater (get boosted)

I used to play Quake and we had wall of shame in every team's / server's forum page including people IP (ok that is against GDPR now) but nicks... why not?! Discord Ban command center has it? Also I think there is a webpage with cheaters listed... why not in forums?!

I just got worked in ranked from a completely different POI, thats a crazy distance. Like how can you even see anyone that far away and these cheaters are hitting shots from that far with a hemlock? Can't believe respawn won't do anything unless you're a famous streamer

Yeah earlier today 3 people were shooting me from Terminal / Solar / Phase drive while I was on top side of the Bonsai hil. Neither did wiff much, I got to 10 hp 3 times in a row and they switched to me from shooting other teams so clearly.
Glad we realized that and managed to outsmart them, make them fight eachother, kill one of those hacker teams (it was **bleep** close as the main hacker knocked 2 of us and almost killed last = doing 500+ damage while we tried to ape him 3v1) and win the game eventually.

And instead of NAE I managed to duostack EU servers... made 1000 RP, went from D3 to D2 half way. How?
1. first game my teammate clutched and we had sweatiest game of today ending up in a win, kudos to 3rd random who actually teamworked and made good choices (mostly) while being D1

2. second game we have a very talkative level 237 Octane with master badge...we kill one team, team effort, then 2nd team, then successfully 3rd party another fight - I have 2+2+4 and we all on 8KP. Octane goes deep into the map solo, wipes solo, then kills 2 other people, then forces us into 3v3, kills that, then kills 2 more people and then we end up in end zone with 2 other squads, we played amazing positional game but Octane ends up with 3.6k damage and 11+4 shouting he is the best :) clearly on titan or something

3. Us D3 and D2 get 3rd who is current 23k+ Masters. Almost similar experience as with Octane...dude kinda teamworks and then decides to get berserk and runs into 1v3, this time he got kills but we had to save him twice. All this while facing flawlessly times 3rd parties onto us, beaming Vantages with amazing aim of instant two bullet hits etc...

Basically we not only played vs cheaters but with them...

Game is just a joke. Including matchmaking where when we 3stack as D4/D4/D3 -> got instantly into Pred lobbies, today at night in EU D3/D2/D1 or Masters = we got at most 12 Diamond 6 Master lobby that we actually won :)

But oh well that's Apex for now. Will see if I get at least two more messages about that Octane and Alter getting banned + reported 2 more blunt cheaters...or not...

I don't think I've ever seen so many level 20-30 players beaming me like they're pro. Whats the point of banning when they just make new accounts in 5 minutes
