Apex Legends players want more after Respawn reveals number of cheaters banned

Respawn Entertainment has announced that they have banned more than 6 million cheaters in Apex Legends so far. However, fans are eager to see this number continue to increase significantly.

Despite the long-standing occurrence of cheating in multiplayer games, there has been a growing emphasis on it in recent years. With the rise of live service games and the implementation of anti-cheat measures by developers, there has been a heightened sensitivity within communities towards individuals who use aimbots or wall-hacks to disrupt gameplay.

It has also been a common occurrence in the case of Apex Legends, where players frequently express frustration over the abundance of cheaters. Initially, Respawn swiftly dealt with these individuals, but as time passed, hackers have become more sophisticated.

Recently, it was announced by the developers that over the span of five years since the battle royale was released, they have taken action against more than 6 million cheaters. According to official statistics, Respawn continues to ban an average of approximately 100,000 accounts per month.

Despite the announcement, there is disagreement among players. One stated, “Their decision to expand the anti-cheat team is a positive one.”Another suggested, “It’s time for them to start banning Cronus, Strike Packs, and XiM.”A different player added, “They also need to take into account the false bans.”One player argued on a Reddit forum, “Banning 100k players is pointless if they can easily return.”

A demand for stricter enforcement regarding Cronus and Strike Packs, controller add-ons, has been voiced by fans for a significant period of time.

Despite their efforts to combat cheaters, Respawn confirmed in their August 21 update that they are still actively working to implement new tools and technologies at an accelerated rate. It is uncertain, however, if they will be able to successfully address the issue of Cronus and Strike Packs.

The Apex developers have also mentioned their ongoing efforts to bolster their anti-cheat team, including increasing their 24/7 coverage and recruiting specialized talent specifically for the Asia-Pacific region which has been significantly affected.

Despite possibly never completely eliminating cheaters, they are persistently fighting against them.
