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. Its the console version of hacking.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. Its 100% unfair and the top reason why crossplay is not a good idea from a competitive standpoint. The combination pushes the effective reaction time to 100ms or even lower (average human reaction time is 250ms), making jukes more or less ineffective. This is what a Xim/Cronus/etc gives you and why so many people use it. Is 0ms automated reaction too much of a crutch for a gfueled pro on controller such that it pushes him into inhuman reaction times that can’t be replicated on PC, even when the stick travel time is factored? Debatable, but what’s not debatable is when you combine this instant reaction with a mouse, something that has relatively no travel time to begin moving from left to right. Without this in place, the average person’s effective reaction time (brain reaction + time to move the stick) would be insanely high and make tracking virtually impossible and left up to prediction rather than reflexes. Analog sticks have a travel time to move from left to right. The reasoning behind why this exists is obvious. Anyone trying to argue this point and the terminology used has overdosed so much on copium that they need to go to the nearest ER immediately for treatment. This reaction speed cannot be accomplished by any human, past or present it is a robotic aiming response and thus is by definition an “aim bot”. Rotational aim assist (as seen in the linked video in the post I replied to) gives you 0ms reaction time to jukes. To everyone saying aim assist doesn’t give anything PC players can’t do better, you’re wrong.
