The author of a post on the Apex Legends subreddit wrote that soft cheating is on the rise in the game, and that “cheaters are now reducing their aimbots to levels indiscernible to an anti-cheat algorithm, but obvious enough from the receiving end of it.” They wrote that despite last week’s ban wave that Respawn rolled out, cheaters mostly in Asian servers are back in the game with third-party software that’s undetected by Apex’s Easy Anti-Cheat.Īccording to the author, “when spectating them you can see the aimbot locking on, but their cheats give a buffer of missed shots to fool the accuracy counter.” Such a behavior makes it look like the player just has a good aim, which might leave opponents wondering if they’re really cheaters or just exceptional players. It should be a huge red flag when people are actively picking up a controller to play PC games.Hackers in Apex Legends have apparently found a way to bypass the game’s anti-cheating software with less blatant cheats, players have reported on Reddit. I know why they've done this, but for the sake of balance, it should be reverted. The main point here is: the assist threshold is too high, it doesn't affect just a few PC players, it affects the vast majority. There is a solution I will mention in my own thread.

I understand it works in the reverse direction (using XIM converters and whatnot),

PC do not have this - therefore anyone worse than the console audience suffer.

It artificially inflates the skill of worse players (see below): I will eventually be writing a thread discussing all the design changes that should be made (if the devs would like to read that instead).Īs for your comment - yes, there is never going to be an implementation of aim assist that is fair.Īim assist brings the skill range up, without affecting the ceiling much (so everyone is fair game).

Devs, contact me, not an enormous work needs to be done, hear me out.
