Game is broken: Being killed instantly these days

[WhoopFighter]

@HappyHourSumwur I keep saying that I won't be spending any money until they explicitly state that they are going to use profits to improve the audio, increase server tick rate, and invest more to combat cheaters.

It's a fun game, but it's impressive how much Respawn just ignore some of the core issues. The sound in the game is a complete disaster. I can barely tell if someone is above or below me in the tall buildings on E-District. Guess I should consider myself lucky that I heard any footsteps at all!

Almost everyone does not cheat in apex; give your head a shake.  What a daft statement.

@MrGreenWithAGunNo idea, I've never played fortnite nor have I mentioned it.  I believe they were one of the first big Battle Royale titles so with that comes a market share.

@RockDokRock 

Why is Fortnite so popular?

Because UEFN. Players can make own games inside the game. As a result there are hundreds of different things to do inside Fortnite.
Tired of playing BR  PvP-> Go play guitar hero style music game, prop hunt, parkour, shoot zombies (or bots) or drive cars off of a huge ramp into a dartboard for points. 

Fortnite is about fun for everyone. Thats why they are making big bucks. Thats why they have LEGO/Eminem/Lady Gaga/Metallica/Marvel collabs and Apex has Post Malone (no diss on Post Malone).
Go all in on the fun for the masses part BUT should you want to play serious PvP that too is possible. 

Best thing about the UEFN is that by making games to Fortnite, they get paid royalties or something on how many people play their games. Fortnite version of OnlyUp had massive amount of players and according to some reports at some points the guys who made that had earned about 3,4million USD from it. EA would never.

CS is a competitive shooter with no bs. Apex is somewhere in between not really knowing what it wants to be. 
Some of the streamers made some really fun looking mods on R5 Reloaded Apex like prop hunt etc but there is no support from EA for any of that as they want to maintain the serious image.

I have an issue with respawns approach to cheating in general.

it seems the only cheats that get banned are the ones pointed out by pros and content creators, they are the only people given any traction. No one seems to address the sheer amount of games that these people have ruined in order to achieve that rank.

I know most devs are bad but respawn refuse to even acknowledge the issue, in game reporting is largely ignored, i know this because ive reported players that are defo cheating (50% server amount of kills) and that player contnues to play to this day.

When your in low level ranked games and people are playing better than pros you know its an issue, i get that there are a lot of smurf accs but i still think people pull the wool over thier own eyes.

This season has been that bad for whatever reason ive simply stopped getting any enjoyment out of the game

@dougieee I confirm. I even saw videos of someone like this on YT and these account(s) are still active. And there are plenty of such people. And those who don't brag about it and don't post videos? Have they had accounts for many months/years? This is just ridiculous. EA/Respawn doesn't do anything about it.

@Airish85Not sure why you addressed me. Fortnite comment wasn't me.  I've literally never seen it.

[r1ggedgame]

@RockDokRock if its not cheaters (which i cant believe by the sheer amount of sketchy stuff happening) , it leaves only a handful of options then ... and if you dare to post those , you likely get a ban on this forum.

[Michal_z_Lublina]

The person I mentioned in the last post is still playing and they haven't done anything with it, but he promotes cheats on YouTube. :D Isn't this funny? But they removed my links from the post :D Interesting policy.

@WhoopFighterSame here. Not paying for anything in Apex until they start doing something meaningful to fix matchmaking, combat cheaters, eliminate smurfs, increase server performance, &/or improve audio.  That means I won't ever spend another penny on Apex coins since Respawn is unable or unwilling to do anything about those things.
