How about you start banning hackers. I shouldn't have to do your job for you it is not like I am being paid to seek out hackers. There needs to be an anti-cheat system on all platforms and it needs to be harsh punishment I would even go as far as destruction of property aka fry their systems with a virus or something after you make it okay to destroy their property in your terms of service of course so they can't sue you. I am getting sick and tired of all these cheaters and I am on Xbox One so it has me worried about the state of this game right now. I encountered someone using a head shot aim bot and self revive hack earlier. This game is being ruined for me in every way at this point it makes me sad you didn't make Titanfall 3 because even that sounds better than the state of this game. The weapons also need to be rebalanced completely. They are either too weak or have too little ammo or both.

tos and eula are not legally binding documents and what you are describing would be illegal even if it just hit hackers, would be a grounds for a lawsuit and in reality would have to be on everyone's computers which is utterly unacceptable. what this game does need for instance is proper in-game report system. to punish not just hackers but for instance those that actively grief by not respecting the jumpmaster system.

So far 16,000 cheaters have been banned.
CHEATERS
As of today over 16,000 cheaters have been identified and banned from the game. Cheaters suck. If you run into one, please try and capture the evidence and let us know here: https://www.easy.ac/en-us/support/apexlegends/contact/report/
Even if you don’t get proof, get their ID and flag it and we can investigate the account. We have heard your feedback about a report feature in the game. I’ll just say that’s a very good idea

So you are telling us that you actually stay after you get 1 shot by some guy who is lvl 90 and spectate him for the rest of the game in an attempt to learn something ? I am sorry, but I just find that hard to believe. You learn by actually exploring the map, getting a feeling for the weapons/legends etc. Getting killed within 5 seconds by a faaaaar more experienced player will teach youa bsoultetly nothing, except for a cheaper phrase like "damn, I should have been paying more attention !" or "damn, I need to get better at aiming"...those are things that you could have concluded by getting killed by other noob players as well, so I just don't see the point of your argument.
To give my 2 cents on the topic itself: as someone who started playing Apex Legends today, and this is my first BR game, I had a terrible time, in the few games that I played I was put up against (and killed) by people with 200+ kills on that Legend...I just don't see how I can have the slightest chance when I am matched against players like that, and I had 0 enjoyment whilst playing.
When I started playing, and got through the tutorial, I was hoping that I will be given the chance to just join an empty map and explore it, to get to know some decent loot locations, where it might be a good idea to jump, try out some character abilites etc.; however I had no such option and was forced to join a game and get crushed, as I had no idea where to expect to find some good weapons and gear.
Look, I don't expect to have an easy time when starting out a new game, but as someone with 15+ years of experience gaming, I have to say that with Apex Legends I had one of the worst experiences getting into a new game, the "matchmaking" as it stand, is extremely unfriendly towards noobs, and I feel it will serve as a large deterrent to new players.
Cheers !

That boils down to how respawn handles ranked.

I just fir sure want to say again I do not want ranked play. At the very least, make it some other game mode option.
This is a team game. Sometimes I’ll get rolled by a great player or team, sometimes I end up on a team with great players and ride it. No matter who you are, if you are at least tying and making pings/callouts, you are worth your weight.
Honestly its it’s the best way to learn. Don’t feed endless streamers, play the game and learn.
I get people don’t like being thrashed every once in a while, but if you are trying your best and learn, getting a thick hide, and going in hard as you can is the best way to do it.

@KelRiever Ranked would be a secondary game mode altogether. It should also reward players with say crafting metals for the top (ie: top 5) squads. Exactly like in mobas where you have "Regular" queue and "ranked" queue. The game has such an enormous playerbase (multiple millions active players) that separating the playerbase in different game modes would never actually hurt the queue times. Nor would a matchmaking based off of skill/accuracy/win%/etc. .

Dropped the game today, going to shelf it, I`m too casual and got fed up being cannon fodder. I drop, hit the ground then I'm dead in under 1 min, fun has gone. If a ranking system is setup I`ll come back.

I can manage a 40% accuracy or so with my favorite semi-auto in say bf1 and have overall really good tactics, KD and accuracy in bf titles in general yet this game is getting really frustrating to play and at an increasing rate with each day since it's release. While I'm good in general in FPS games, I'm a f-ing uni student that also works, I don't have the same time to invest in a single video game as the lame *ss smelly streamers (all those kids with TTV in their name) playing 12h/day. If the only thing I can do is be fodder for their "awesome videos", I think I will simply move on and I expect a lot of people in the same situation as mine will also do the same. They will try it out only to be butchered and will, shortly after installing, simply go play something else. Yes the game is extremely popular but if you keep turning off all the "new blood" coming into the game, it will hurt on the long term once all the hype dies down.
Implementing a proper accuracy, KD and win ratio based matchmaking is required and should be the top priority of the team (well alongside better anti-cheats and proper ways to block cheaters from simply making a new account every time they are banned).

The the game isn't that fun when you're being put against people that are way too sweaty and overpowered against you... Please can we have matchmaking to make it easier to play and win?
