Linux players getting banned
Edit: Looks like they fixed the issue causing the bans. Edit 2: EA is reversing bans and sending out emails letting you know. Yay! Hello, I believe myself and a few others got banned for just playi...

@Asmodeus566 Thank you for getting it out to a CM. It's at least something, considering that we have exactly 0 other options.
Had the same issue. Banned from apex last Friday.
As a prestige 700 player with 1600+ hours and multiple heirlooms this is very frustrating given k just switched to Linux haha. I feel the pain of everyone in this thread.
Fedora 37 KDE
Proton-GE
Launch options: -dev mangohud gamemoderun %command% RADV_PERFTEST=gpl
Really hope we all get unbanned <3
Hey not a linux player but Play on PC steam also falsely banned a month ago. Please help me
@stillkoyI am sorry but this really isn't the thread for you. If your issue is separate you probably should just try to email EA support in the hopes of a resolution. This thread is designed to bring awareness that there's something going on for people running Linux.
Oh I see that you have already emailed them multiple times. Sorry but there's not a lot we can do as your issue is clearly separate to the main topic here ☹️
bro what do you mean this isn't the right thread for me why are all linux users such arrogant elitist? Hey I was also falsely banned recently and this thread has been gaining a lot of traction so maybe EA staff can reach out to me as well. And what do you mean not a lot we can do? you are just some random person. Please i apologize for my rudeness EA Staff I am just very passionate about the game and i don't know why i was banned. Thanks you.
@AssumptionsandGHow does @spongue's post compare to your settings? Were you using DX12?
- @Jaxseven Hi There! I play on DX11 mostly tho i did try DX12 once or twice a few weeks ago.
I've been using Proton-GE-7.49, though I may have been using 7.47 or 7.49 at the time of the ban I cant remember which specifically, tho I could check logs if this is helpful.
I was mostly using Plasma+Wayland at the time of ban, tho I was mostly using X11 up until a couple of weeks ago. I haven't tried Apex with any other D.E and I've been running Fedora 37, though i can think of one occassion when i ran Apex in Arch (also using Plasma 5.26/27).
my full launch options: -dev -fps_max unlimited mangohud gamemoderun %command% RADV_PERFTEST=gpl
