Just like every other battle royale out there, Apex Legends has had to contend with its fair share of headaches from cheaters and exploits over the last few years. Plenty of ban waves have been sent out by Respawn\u2019s security team to deal with those players using wall hacks, aimbots, and God mode, but they\u2019ve struggled to get a firm grip on players using strike packs. Strike packs, if you don\u2019t know, are attachments that can be put onto a controller to give players a leg up. In a big step, Epic Games have announced new anti-cheat measures in Fortnite that will now cover these controller attachments, and Apex players are hopeful that Respawn will follow suit. Apex Legends players want Fortnite anti-cheat feature The announcement from Epic Games has done the rounds across the Apex community, and it\u2019s certainly got plenty of players hopeful that Respawn can replicate it \u2013 or even ask Epic how they\u2019ve done it. \u201cWe need this. Zens and strike packs should never have been allowed in the first place,\u201d tweeted one player. \u201cI hope Apex does this. I\u2019m so sick of this and strike packs in Arenas,\u201d added another. \u201cThis is really cool from Fortnite. I would LOVE to see this gone as a console player. Would feel way better about the integrity of the competition I face,\u201d commented another player. Though the majority of players want to see something similar brought into Apex, others aren\u2019t hopeful it\u2019ll happen anytime soon. \u201cThis can\u2019t be proved 100%, a strikepack is in the controller and as a charger device marked so this useless,\u201d argued one. \u201cWill Respawn do it? Doubt it, lol,\u201d added another. Respawn have already taken similar devices of out pro play in the likes of the ALGS, so it might not be a massive step for them to combat them in pub games. We\u2019ll just have to wait and see if anything changes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apex Legends players call for Fortnite\u2019s new anti-cheat to stop strike packs Respawn\/EAApex Legends players are hoping that Respawn Entertainment follows Epic Games\u2019 lead with a new feature that tackles players using strike packs in-game.
