The Rampage LMG and Sentinel are fairly standard weapons at a glance, but their ability to be powered up in the middle of a skirmish makes them a real force to be reckoned with. However, in early December, players discovered an exploit that allowed both guns to be infinitely charged. The method quickly spread around the community and soon it was becoming the norm in Ranked to see opponents abusing the glitch. Although a fix was implemented on December 10, it wasn\u2019t long before players had found a workaround and the bug had taken over the BR once again. Now, Respawn devs have confirmed once again that they\u2019re working on a fix but this time, they\u2019ve even threatened abusers of the glitch with a ban. Apex dev threatens bans for infinite charge bug abusers Taking to Twitter on January 4, Producer at Respawn Josh Medina confirmed that the devs were working on a fix for the glitch and that it shouldn\u2019t be long before the infinite charge exploits are gone for good. This was great news for a lot of Apex fans, as the bug has become a serious issue in Ranked, with countless players abusing the exploit to gain an advantage over their opponents. With today being the last day of our time off for the holidays\u2026 I can safely say I\u2019m ready to get back to it and make some dope stuff come to life we\u2019ll address the Rampage issues tomorrow thanks to my homeslice @RSPN_JayBiebs @benbrinkman Imma be late in the morning lol pic.twitter.com\/tVjMcnzhKV \u2014 Josh Medina (@lowkeydbjosh) January 4, 2022 The devs didn\u2019t stop there, with Live Balance Designer John Larson suggesting that there may be consequences for those who abused the bug. Taking to Twitter on January 5, he mentioned that although he doesn\u2019t carry the \u201cbanhammer\u201d, he\u2019d look into taking action against the worst of the abusers. Took a much needed break from working on and playing Apex and instead went outside for a couple weeks. IRL graphics go hard. Infinite charge Rampage and Sentinel also go hard, but like, in a way less fun way. While I don\u2019t personally carry a banhammer I\u2019ll see what we can do\u2026 pic.twitter.com\/ZU4TMzlQEm \u2014 JayBiebs (@RSPN_JayBiebs) January 5, 2022 As the glitch has been in the game for so long, it seems like it would be difficult to pinpoint which players deserve a ban, but we\u2019ll just have to wait and see what Respawn decides to do. Finally, at least it seems like the Rampage and Sentinel will return to their original state, and other weapons will be able to compete once again.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Apex Legends dev threatens bans for infinite Rampage &#038; Sentinel charge exploit RespawnApex Legends devs have confirmed they\u2019re working on a fix for the infinite Rampage &#038; Sentinel charge exploit and have even threatened abusers with a ban.
