[Guide] How to report users and cheaters
{Thank you for pinning this thread :eahigh_file: } Currently there are over 60 separate threads in the general feedback forum alone about reporting players or cheaters so I thought i'd put together solutions i've found on the web and in these threads in a central place so hopefully people can send their reports to the right places. I'll add to this if anyone else has any links/tips on how to report cheaters/players. Please do not post below your 'examples' of cheats or post names/user ID's or people you feel are bad players/cheats, use the tools described below. The more we use these tools to report genuine cheaters the more likely we are to have an impact. Thank you. Cheaters {EDIT 20/03/19} Players can now report cheaters they encounter in-game and it’ll be sent directly to Easy Anti-Cheat. You can do this from either the spectate view after dying or when looking at your team’s Banner Cards in the Squad tab.

But There’s been times I dump entire clips into people and they never die ... like I’m so mad right now not using foul language is like pulling teeth for me . I jus played 10 games straight of shoot people with every last bullet I have and they don’t die . Take tons of damage but never drop or die . I don’t get it even with purple and gold shields I get drop 6- 7 shots the most . I shoot people , reload shoot more reload shoot more , then die .... I’m really just gonna stop playing this game if this isn’t fixed in season 3 because it makes the game playing experience a 0.1 out of 5 . As a first person shooter expert and pro . This games is right behind fortnite as number 2 with its crappy shooting systems or health systems . The game that really ticked me off what me shooting a lifeline with a devotion literally landing every shot in the clip including 3 headshots . This person turned to me after my clip was empty shot me 2 times with a shot gun and I died . Like somebody please give me a reason not to stay on call of duty where people actually die when I shoot them and I drop 30+ Kills with 3 deaths . Like for real I kinda like this game but this has to change . I deserve a way better record then the one I have because I literally destroy people and 90% the time they survive I don’t understand. If there’s a way to do more damage please explain to me how ....Solved139KViews26likes89CommentsEA ID Names
Hello there, my actual name SHOULD be SpiritMusicorum for my EA ID, but for some silly reason my legal name contains "Prohibited Words" because there is a stigma against the word Spirit... As a result my own branding and my own legal name, is forbidden to be used as an EA ID, while normally many people wouldn't care, its a bit of a personal matter to me, to not be allowed to use my own name or be forced to bastardize my name to Sp1r1tMusicorum or find some other workaround, when I have built my online presence with that name, is just not ok, there should be a manual override for legitimate uses of otherwise "prohibited words" to allow us access as we should have to our names.Solved106KViews4likes19CommentsWhat to do if your account got banned or suspended in Apex.

Just played 4 to 5 matches at diamond II, and every single team have at least 2 controller players or it's a full controller team. (Almost everyone is streaming at those ranks) 70-80% of the players i searched using the names appearing on the screen are running controllers. Some are very known: Daltoosh Team, Nicewigg team, Calamiti Team, Knoqd team, Soar Team, Snip3down team, Resultah Team, Xedmin Team, The Kine Team, etc, Less known teams and streamers also running full controller teams also at master and predator levels. Why Respawn let aim assist being this powerful? https://www.reddit.com/r/apexlegends/comments/haf32f/when_they_tell_you_aim_assist_isnt_that_strong_on/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share I'm on PC but with so many controllers on higher ranks, feels more like Console with higher FPS Is so stressful to play against controllers; must of them have bad movement, bad plays, and still one clip you only because aim assist do 40% of the Aiming according to Ilootgames. Aim assist needs to be removed on Ranked PC and Tourneys or at least tuned down way too hard. Controller is bad for FPS, bad movement, bad accuracy and even with that Higher Ranks are being dominated by controllers, just because aim assist is a thing. And this is not just me, So many PRO players have complained a lot about aim assist, but Respawn have do nothing.58KViews15likes34CommentsThe client's game account has been banned: Banned
