As a brazilian and Apex content creator, I REALLY apologize for what u guys have experienced in São Paulo servers. We've claimed BILLION of times to Respawn to take a closer look, but that's how the whole situation got worse as they just ignored us. Again, I feel ashamed. I'm so sorry for that.

[@238mob8]

My mind is actually blown by just the first 2minutes. Had no idea it was like this. And with the way they do it, you would think EA or Respawn would be able to flag this immediately. It just shows they do not care for other areas outside of NA and EMEA. Hope that Kandy's video brings awareness among them.

[@Ottoni174]

ranked here is a fucking mess, not only the cheaters from south america play here but the cheaters from other regions also come here to abuse the lower player base and lack of care from ea/respawn about people cheating here, still managed to get to masters here but jesus christ it was tilting, took me 100 matches more then when i got masters playing on NA servers the ress farms here are crazy too, there were groups on discord with like, 5 teams teaming to farm rp and ended up with like 60+ kp lol

[@NucShock]

I'd actually like an entire video on this cause it was actually entertaining to see you guys just infiltrate and act like them and just straight up annihilate them

[@tonyhinderman]

I want a series! Coming up with funny ways to mess with cheaters

[@Kobi]

This video is amazing in EVERY way possible and yes there is a cheater discord with like 15k people in it that ONLY hunt creators and more. I got sniped in MY OWN custom lobbies for a week straight until I threw in the flag and gave up LMAO

[@NathanielNerquaye-Tetteh-uz2nf]

Bro that shits messed up why doesn’t discord disband that discord server

[@CheatActivated]

Y’all my hero’s for taking these guys out 😂😂 love this video! ❤ thanks for bringing awareness! Apex devs need to fix this

[@SteltekOne]

I guess there's 3 kinds of cheater groups in these lobbies: 1. the outright aimbot/wallhackers that roam the server and kill everything in their sight (like superhippo, windows, and Skyfall here). 2. the mobi kill farmers, like the last team in Bonzai. 3. the mobi kill farmers that have their farm guarded by an actual cheater with aimbot/wallhacks (like the one Boom ran into in his 2nd game). From what I read in the patch notes, the ranked changes in Season 17 will be such that killing the same person won't give you points anymore, so that should put an end to 2 and 3.

[@Ottoni174]

they also said there will be an upgrade on the anti cheat, so at least in the begining of the season it should be lot cleaner since the cheaters needs at least a little bit of time to crack the anti cheat code, its still sad that probably a ton of asian people with all the configs and controller stuff like strike packs etc will still plague SA servers like they do, i fought this octane that was literally meme strafing and blasting me and my team with an eva, we died to him like 10 times and killed him once lol

[@Pax_the_Casual]

Interesting as this was, I am glad that theyve worked on a way to combat this. With the new ranked system, you’ll only be able to get KP from unique kills rather than getting KP from a player youve already taken out, but was respawned. Sure for the rest of us this will be a little BS, but it also makes for more interesting games and it stops the farming. So a little sacrifice will go a long way.

[@zacpetersen18]

The exact same thing is happening on Sydney, Australia servers at the moment. It's incredibly frustrating - can't even play on our home servers. How Respawn/ EA just ignore the issue is beyond me. Thankfully this new ranked system next season should put an end to these kinds of cheating lobbies.

[@ParmaSean_Cheese]

Dude the cheaters turned on each other and accidentally played a real game of ranked

[@jjburger960]

I’m currently living in China and you are right Kandy it’s a service. Normally this is a service to get the 4k damage 20 kill bomb badges on people’s accounts and as you can tell from the Chinese usernames it’s super popular here. It’s extremely cheap as well, running around 4-5 USD for both badges.

[@frozenkuku]

Meanwhile on TW/HK servers which has high population, this happens every other match as well. Half filled lobbies with 1 team that is 3 stacked while the rest are solos. Then the DDOS + maphack + aimbot kicks in and they just hunt you down from POI to POI

[@mohamedrafik9271]

One information: They don't cheat because they want to become masters and play in masters lobbies, rather they just sell the accounts for people who are obsessed with becoming master and preds even if they don't have the skill, or sell them to people who are really masters and preds, and maybe they moved up to another platform, let's say from pc to ps5, and because there is no cross progression in Apex, they just buy the account with the badges already. It's just business for them. I knew someone who used to boost accounts in Rocket league, and it was really just good extra money for him, as he has no intentions of being pro in the game or something. Rocket League though was able to solve it, but EA and Respawn will never do. You just need to accept it.

all respawn had to do was take the mobile res off the crafter or make it so you cannot grab materials from the canister you already used when respawned again, but with the new ranked changes I hope it alleviates this problem for good.

This has been a problem for the entire server, especially on that server but many others aswell. That respawn hasn't done anything at all against this blows my mind they went through so many options to figure out how to fix this issue hence why season 17 is gonna be completely different when the only simple thing they could of done is remove respawn beacons out of crafting rotation.... Not only that they haven't even done anything to ban these fuckers i mean look on the leaderboard every fucking pred should be HWID banned at this point. You aint gonna tell me that a 40k pred that uses -200 entry cost that makes 500+ rp per match is a legit player that is equilavant to 25+ kills ever game with a victory... smh Respawn are so dumb to have let this shit happen

They mention one of the ways to combat could be to take the mobile respawn out of rotation which obviously would work but would also hurt regular players. What they could do is limit it to 1 per match per person, obviously if there's 9 people doing it they can still get away with a good amount but not in the numbers they will be. Or make it 1 per team per match but that could hurt too just an idea
