There is no donut that Apex Legends is one of the popular battle royale games to play and fans have loved
it for a long time. However, of late there seems to be a problem with this game and it is common for other
popular online games. It is just like other games even this one seems to have problems with its cheaters. It
is on a visit to the Apex subreddit, one stumbles upon complaints of players breaking rules. There are
plenty of players who are simply not competing fairly and that seems to be a major problem at this
moment for the developer team.
Fans who desire to play the game fairly will be glad to hear that the developer has not taken it lying down.
It is via a recent tweet, they stated that they were pursuing several options to crack down on cheaters
active in the game. We check out with sources in the developer team and got to know that they have some
ways to take action against the cheaters. Here are some of the options, which they are planning.
They surely intend to manually ban cheaters but for that, there is a need to hire more people to
bolster up this ability.
There are also plans to boost technology upgrades to fight against cheating. The plan is to build
up new tools, which can automatically detect and stop DDoS attacks.
They are exploring every possible way to quickly remove the cheaters and deny them any more
access to the game.
There was another tweet from the developer team Respawn. They admitted that playing against the
cheater sucks. They promised the sections of fans engaging in the fair play to update them the moment
they ship the above changes and pursue new ones.
The one drawback of the Respawn team is that they are not giving any more detailed updates. The games
like Call of Duty: Warzone and Rainbow Six Siege had offered more detailed anti-cheat updates.
However, one should not mistake this lack of details as missing aggression on the part of Respawn
against cheaters. Just last March it showed its intention by dropping the hammer on as many as 700 high-
ranked Apex players. On the list, 180 players were in the Diamond and Predator ranks. In May it warned
players against exploiting a "ghost rock" bug and said it is a banning offence, Hence, you can see that
they are taking necessary action against cheaters.
