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...
I got banned over 2 weeks ago now, support is useless. Using arch/kde-plasma-wayland/steam with an AMD gpu, no launch arguments, tools, overlays, etc.
Any news? I still have not got an unban letter. I was unbanned without letter. In my ban history the ban is still active and I cannot registerate myself on any apex tournaments. I wrote to ea support but they didn't check my case about my ban satus and auto declined the case. They forgot about me again XD
Hi, just updating that I'm one of the fortunate ones to have finally gotten the un-ban letter and am now able to play normally again. Still very baffled that such stupid issue reached this scale, but it is what it is I guess.
Major thanks to @RacsuChile and @UngerGames who have originally arranged this thread, the Reddit post, and the Google Docs to document the issues and bringing it up to Respawn & EA. Without both of you, many people would still be un-fairly be banned right now.
It's very unfortunate and sad that your account is still not yet un-banned @R4csu, my condolences. I pray that EA/Respawn would give your account a chance somehow. It's just disgusting and un-fair that they didn't even properly review your account even though you're the one who properly documented this whole issue.
Sadly this whole entire debacle has left a very bitter taste in my mouth, and I will likely slowly drop this game, and play others instead. Already moved the game away from Linux back to Windows 10 (euugghh), which means it'll likely not see much activity from me in future, cuz I'm still using Linux as my primary OS.
Thx and wishing better fortune & luck for those who're still banned.

Hi, I've been waiting for my ban to be lifted for more than 2 months now.
I feel helpless and I want my account back, please.
