But what happens when cheats are hacked on your game? This nightmare happed over the weekend at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ea.com\/games\/apex-legends\/compete\">Apex Legends Global Series<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Apex Legends Global Series is one of the largest tournaments ran for Apex, being on its 4th version of the tournament. This year was no different, as teams were competing for a $5,000,000 USD prize pool acrost three different events. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Teams were competing on March 13th, when two players were given Hacks mid-tournament. ImperialHal who is a well-known player for TSM and Genburten another popular player on DarkZero Esports. One player was given an aimbot, and another was given wall hacks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"es\" dir=\"ltr\">MULTI BILLION DOLLAR ESPORT BTWW <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/e1B9lfDt3C\">pic.twitter.com\/e1B9lfDt3C<\/a><\/p>&mdash; DZ_Genburten (@Genburten) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Genburten\/status\/1769530771969065324?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 18, 2024<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><sub>Clip of Genburten getting hacked mid match. <\/sub><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As we we&#8217;re writing this article, Respawn has come out with a statement regarding this issue. Many were angry at the lack of response, now with an official statement it leaves more questions than answers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">An update from the <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/PlayApex?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@PlayApex<\/a> team: <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/fuwKYmHFVP\">pic.twitter.com\/fuwKYmHFVP<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Respawn (@Respawn) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Respawn\/status\/1770285073688137762?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">March 20, 2024<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While one would imagine that a Triple a game, and a premiere esport would have a good anti-cheat. Respawn and the Apex team have been struggling to manage for years. Players report having cheaters in every rank, and not just the basic ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On top of aimbots, wallhacks, and teleporting. Apex hackers can spawn bots, alter the map and bounce pads, and DDOS lobbies to completely shut them down. This has put a great stress on the player base, as many feel the game unplayable or boring due to these hacks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On-top of the constant harassment that apex players face, they might be risking there personal data playing there favorite games. Many believe that the Anti-Cheat software <em>Easy Anti-Cheat <\/em>was compromised, and this is the reason that those pro-players gained hacks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Easy Anti-Cheat confinity denied the failure of there service, and were quick to speak out. There statement outright opposed the failure of easy Anti-Cheat, and placed the blame on Respawn. Many online including myself are skeptical however, and many gamers are avoiding Easy Anti-Cheat games at all cost. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But what do you really think happened? Personally i find it very difficult to believe that the Kernel Level anti-cheat doesn&#8217;t catch a hacker. The hacker issue in apex is horrible, and even console servers aren&#8217;t safe from the rampant hackers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There are only two possible way for a player to get hacks injected to there game. The PC that the Pro player was using had hacks, or the hacks were remotely executed code. This means that the code was injected into the game, and executed from a remote location. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As for now we don&#8217;t know what has caused the hacks. But the completive integrity of Apex has been put into question, and this great and innovative FPS is going downhill fast. Hopefully this issue is resolved and Apex esports can return with confidence in there gameplay. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cheating is unfortunately a part of competitive esports.
