Cheaters Now Own Apex Legends & There's Nothing We Can Do - That's right, Apex Legends is now so overrun with cheaters that you're never safe from them and it's really unfortunate.

As somebody in MW2 who used an aimbot when I was 12, I can confirm that even for at that age it bored me after two matches. I genuinely don't get what people get out of it. I guess it's the same thing like it is with bullies. They have no control over anything in their life, so they use cheats to gain a sense of power somewhere.

Elden ring has a big griefing problem. People will hide in an unreachable spot without torrent and hope players leave so they get the runes from them. It's so ridiculous because there are so many other ways that are easier and quicker that give even more runes. I don't get it either. It's like if there's an option to do something the worst way possible, people will do it and think nothing of it.

JKmyles put a video on cheating yesterday this will answer some questions! My answer to help stop cheating or at least promoting this games for cheating addiction is- These streamers need to STOP promoting this game! They need to find another game and move on with the rest of us! Hopefully they can find a game with a great anti cheat or dev that’s willing to continually invest and that will hold its player base in return! You can’t compete with cheating so there’s no point and that’s why the figures are so low and will continue to drop! These double battle pass solutions are EA way of getting every last penny before they turn the lights off on this game. Streaming and promoting is part of the problem (like advertising)..They have a voice and should use it to promote other games worthy of our time and money! Apex legends has ran out of time to fix problems,and has proven greed is all they care about! Ironically if there game was working properly the player base would be huge..So who is sat in the driver seat needs a slap! I’ve been out for a while,but I’ve always loved this game.

"He might just be a smurf". Smurfs are also cheaters, and we should stop seperating the two to be honest. I think that the best way to combat cheaters is to, somehow, restrict the amound of accounts that somebody can create. For example, enforcing 2-factor authentication through a phone number not only makes it much more difficult to create alt accounts (and makes bans much more tricky to get around), but it also enhances the security of your account lowering the chances of you getting hacked. Not saying this is the best solution, but I think this would reduce the number of cheaters (including smurfs). Now some stuff would need to be ironed out, because unjustified bannings do happen. But it's something I argue would improve the game

@@olakpasa6486I see your point but sounds pretty selfish to me. Now instead you’re stomping on players who are new to the game. So that’s a problem too. If matchmaking was better then this wouldn’t be an issue for you. But at least how I see it, you and your friends are having fun stomping on players that are obviously new or bad at the game and in the end you end up ruining their experience. I’m not blaming you though since in the end, it’s all EA and respawns fault because they can’t get their matchmaking better. You either destroy players or you get destroyed. There’s basically no balance when it comes to playing with friends that are new to the game.

that's make sense I always stuck on platiunum.I thought why my team was so bad, but after spectating there was something weird with their aim and movements as if at a certain distance they could see us. This has been encountered a lot, maybe it also influences why we always force out of the lobby when starting the game, why ping suddenly goes up high, and why there are teams that leave when choosing a legend. Just ruining the gameplay

The worst experience I've had vs cheaters was a guy blatantly looking the other way and firing his 30-30 but actually damaging me and killing me. For him it seemed to be an ego thing since he clearly wanted me to know he was cheating I think many other cheaters fall in this category too. It wouldn't surprise me if solo cheaters are for the same reason they want to have their ego's bolstered that they won a 1v1 they would otherwise never win. As someone who has been a gamer since age 8 I find it extremely sad that they actually get any form of a feeling of accomplishment from cheating it beats the entire reason why you would play a game to begin with.

Apex is a beautifully-designed game and I had a lot of fun starting in Season 8 when my son and I would play together. It was his first FPS, and within a year he had far surpassed me, so playing together meant I was far outclassed in the lobbies we dropped in. I maxxed out as far as skill and fun in season 12, and after that it was downhill for 4 more seasons before I quit. Son got really good, he even ended up modding on Extasyy's Twitch stream, and I just watch now, as the cheating was just the final straw for me, but even my son has quit playing, too because of the cheating.

@@rikk319 Had a similiar experience. I've played a bit of Apex when it was just out. Dipping my Toes in to see if i would have fun. I picked it up again and played on the side, getting a bit better, playing on my Mother's Account because she owned Dragon Age etc on her Account and i would play it. Years later my Sister and her best friend played a Mobile Game and i decided to play too. At some point that Mobile Game added a 'Battle Royale' Mode and my sister weirdly enjoyed it, not even liking Shooters before. When we drifted away from that Game we decided to seek out and play other games together as a Trio. I decided to just pitch Apex, because i knew it was a BR, which my sister seemed to enjoy, and it was Trio, so perfect for us to not have a random with us. I created a new account for myself merely because my Mother would replay Mass Effect and Dragon Age at the time and Origin had updated to not allow two people playing on the same account at the same time, so i made my own. Our early Games were mostly me trying to teach them, while my sister was overwhelmed, but seemed to enjoy herself relatively well. Today... My Sister is probably the best of us 3 (even if her best friend won't admit it, saying she has the better stats [due to stealing kills :)]) She adores the game, and since the last few seasons... Even she got tired, there's times we get together and she just says "IDK, anything, except Apex" because of how frustrating the game is now. We still play, casually. But on most days, we endure 3-4 Games before we go play literally anything else.

I've figured out why it's so bad in other modes too. There are groups that sell people badges, they'll play on your account and get you badges you want, such as 4K or 20 kill. What people who buy the badges don't know, is that when they use your account, it's used to farm other account badges too. I can always tell when a lobby is organic or not, and when my teammates are throwing the match, but they're throwing the match, so the account trying to get the badge can win. There has been several times when I've killed the account that is supposed to win and get the badges, and I literally get the whole lobby chasing after me. They are able to track me, by my teammates that are a part of the scheme, as well as anyone I've killed that is spectating me. They're just on a discord server sharing my location. A lot of people can't figure out what is going on, but I can always sense when I'm in one of those lobbies, and it's very irritating and frustrating, but I always try to ruin it for them, as best as I can, and it's not easy when you have multiple teams all chasing you at once. This problem could easily be fixed if people would quit paying for badges, but unfortunately, people don't want to work and get them legitimately. I am very close to just quitting the game, but those few lobbies that are totally organic are fun. Just wish all the badge sellers would go to hell, and people would quit buying them.

None of us agreed, that we wouldn't play any games with him for the rest of the Lan, and most of us also didn't even want to play with him for weeks after the lan. It got to a point, where his parents contacted the school, and there was a meeting with most of the parents about why we weren't including him when we played anymore...
