Zero recoil guns? Spectate mode broken? console cheaters?

@ringin10I think the players having no recoil when specating is because of the netcode. You don't see how their aim actually is when spectating but rather the smoothed out approximation. What makes it worse is the fact that Apex has rather bad tickrate compared to other games.

EDIT: But then again. Simple google search reveals there are tons of norecoil scripts out there easily available for download. Shouldn't affect you if you are playing on console though, so I think the first conclusion is correct.

I'm inclined to agree with @Anonymous.

If there was hacks available for console formats the lobbies would be crammed to the brim with players using them.

Especially since console generally has a younger player base and kids think they're smart because they're "hacking".

@ringin10Most likely using strike pack dominator mod with the anti recoil mod , it doesn’t really give a huge advantage because i used to use it , it simply just just gives most weapon less recoil but its nothing like pc aim bot where it tracks and does head shots , it actually only does body shots and lower torso shots which is terrible.

Tbh anyone who uses the strike pack dominator mainly use it for the rapid fire and most people who uses it are trash at fps games and accepted that they have slow trigger fingers .

Looks like most people think it could be cheating or something with server side issue. 

Maybe the players just have good recoil control? I know when I use a R301 I manage to minimize recoild to the point of lasering others in the head thus making it easier to use other certain weapons but guns like R99 are difficult for me but still manage to bring the recoil down a bit at  close range. 

@iBlockHeadI remember a moment before they fixed the interpolation a few months ago. I was watching my random teammate, who was apparently aiming 1-2m in front of the very close enemies, but hitting them hard. Also, he often seemed to stop firing way too early, running around enemies who were still on their feet and fighting back but, seconds later, his targets were dropping all of a sudden. I honestly thought he was using some weird hack, until I noticed him apparently grappling the sky but catching a building nearby, but still far from his crosshair. From time to time, there was a bit of stuttering, like he had a very high ping, but his movement was also weirdly smooth, no sudden turns, no flicks. It looked like a very uncommon mix of excellent movement and great decision making, but very slow reactions, awful aim, all forgiven though by an apparently extremely permissive lag compensation.

Since then, I spectate with doubt in my mind. I wouldn't be surprised if 50% of the reported cheaters turn out to be false positives.

@ringin10before assuming people are cheating without hard evidence. Can you just for once think that there's a possibility that other players have the ability to control their thumbs, use Advanced Controls (in game settings btw), Scuf/Elite/Razr controllers with even more customization than your standard controller.

and yes the netcode while spectating isnt a 1 to1 representation of what's happening in game.
