Matchmaking Update
Does anyone know if the community will receive a matchmaking update anytime soon? Specifically, the "stay with team" feature (after matches) and any other updates that will improve the solo queue experience. The solo queue experience needs to be focused on direly. It's been too long and no action. I hope we hear something before the next season starts.Apex Legends anti cheat error. is reWASD the cause?
I recently downloaded Apex Legends again after not playing for a while. During a match, I got the error message: "The client failed an anti-cheat backend check." I have reWASD installed on my PC, which I use to edit controller inputs. I have had issues with other games in the past because of it, but I thought those were resolved, so I installed it again. I do not have reWASD open when launching Apex, so I thought it would not matter. I am starting to wonder if it is still causing problems because of its drivers. I do not want to uninstall reWASD because it is very useful for me. Here is what I have already tried: Disabled the vJoy driver Whitelisted the game folder in antivirus Has anyone run into this before? Is reWASD definitely the reason for this, or could it be something else? Is there a way to temporarily disable it fully without uninstalling just for Apex Legends?Can you please bring linux support back to apex legends?
It would be really nice to use ubuntu and play apex legends on it. Could you please make it possible again? I read that the apex legends linux-block was because of cheating being easier and harder to detect on linux. Easyanticheat could get a proper anticheat working on linux on apex legends so please take the linux block away.How do landmarks work?
Since the landmark system was introduced, the landmarks that are assigned are always in the same place, Are they assigned to that landmark according to the team's rate? Or are the landmarks completely random? And is the strength of the surrounding teams also randomly determined?

Hello friends, I'm Korean. My English is a little bit awkward. A Chinese person's Steam account was hacked. You may be permanently banned from playing the game for exploiting bugs with your account.... I contacted EA, but after a few hours, it said to submit a request and I couldn't submit it.

Apex servers tick rate in 2026, has it improved?
Hey everyone, This isn’t new information. We’ve known for years that Apex servers run at ~20 Hz—Respawn even explained this in their netcode deep dive (2021) and Youtube Back in 2019, PCGamesN tested it and found the same. It’s been part of the conversation since the very beginning, even if it hasn’t been brought up much lately. Fast forward to 2025: Apex has grown, adapted, and even moved its infrastructure to Amazon GameLift That was a fantastic step forward—better stability, global reach, smarter scaling. Honestly, it shows Respawn cares about the long-term health of the game, and as a player, I really appreciate it. That’s why I can’t help but wonder: with all these great infrastructure changes, has the server tick rate changed too? I haven’t seen an official update or fresh data. If it’s still ~20 Hz, then it feels like Apex is lagging behind—because other large shooters are already doing more. Battlefield 2042 runs its 128-player matches at around ~45 Hz, and PUBG raised its 100-player servers to ~30 Hz after community feedback. Even Fortnite, aimed at a completely different audience, manages ~30 Hz for 100 players. Apex, with its competitive, skill-driven style and 60-player lobbies, deserves at least the same if not more. But let’s be honest: we’ve all had those moments where you swear you hit every shot, yet the damage numbers just… don’t appear. Or when you peek a corner and it feels like the other player saw you a heartbeat earlier. These moments have almost become part of the Apex culture—funny when clipped for memes, but frustrating when it costs you a fight you know you should’ve won. There are different factors at play, like ping and netcode, but the low 20 Hz server tick rate makes these situations much more common than they should be. Example: How server tick rate affects a player with 60–70 ms ping Server Tick Rate Avg Delay (ms) Worst Case (ms) 20 Hz ~60 ms ~85 ms 30 Hz ~52 ms ~68 ms 45 Hz ~46 ms ~57 ms (For reference, Valorant or CS2 run at 128 Hz—under the same conditions this would feel closer to ~39 ms.) Even these “small” jumps from 20 → 30 or 45 Hz mean your shots are registered noticeably faster. In a game where fights are decided in fractions of a second, that difference matters. And this isn’t about asking for Valorant-style 128 Hz servers. Those games are built for 5v5, small maps, and tight competitive play—it’s a very different structure than a 60-player battle royale spread across huge maps. We’re not greedy—we know Apex is a massive battle royale. But even moving from 20 Hz to 30 or 45 Hz would make every fight feel fairer. It’s the kind of change that could even be marketed: “Apex servers are faster than ever.” Imagine how good that would sound. We play Apex because we love it. That’s why we’ve put up with these little frustrations for so long. But I really believe this community deserves better. Sometimes the smallest improvements make the biggest difference. We love Apex because it’s special—and that’s exactly why we want it to be the best it can be. ❤️ Thanks for reading—and for keeping Apex alive all these years Edit: For anyone curious, here’s a good breakdown video on the topic → YouTube linkThe EA Help website does not show the ban record.
Dear EA Help Team, When I recently tried to log in to my APEX Legends account, it showed that the account was banned. However, when I logged into the EA Help website, I could not find any ban records at all, and I have not received any emails regarding the ban either. After checking my account activity, I found there was unusual login activity on September 17, 2025, which indicates that my account had been hijacked (unauthorized access). Therefore, I submitted an appeal on September 21, 2025. But after submitting the appeal, I wanted to add more details, so I clicked to withdraw it. Since withdrawing the appeal, though, there has been no channel or method available for me to submit the appeal again.Unannounced Crimson Heirloom Pack changes.
I recently noticed whilst showing my friends the Crimson Heirloom packs, that they have updated the packs contents to include more obtainable skins as per the 19 skins they originally released with. I purchased all 20 of these packs when they first released and I feel quite frustrated that I, and many others, weren't given the same chance at all of these skins as the people who can purchase the packs now. Is there anyway I can get into contact with EA support directly in regards to this instead of having my tickets closed and being forced onto the forums? Thanks.
