As a free-to-play battle royale game, Apex Legends players can often find themselves at the mercy of hackers. In fact, a number of lobbies can be filled with squads using everything from aimbot to speed-enhancing cheats, which gives them an unfair advantage over their competitors. NICKMERCS is no stranger to the world of cheaters \u2013 in fact, Nick often finds himself in frustrating and often comical scenarios with these players. However, during a recent ranked match, the streamer tried negotiating with a team of hackers. NICKMERCS negotiates with Apex Legends hackers Hackers and stream snipers aren\u2019t exactly anything new for NICKMERCS. After all, the high-energy content creator ends up competing against all kinds of players. Unfortunately, some of these players use hacks to try and make their way onto his Apex Legends streams. However, instead of simply raging and letting the hackers ruin his fun, Nick actually embraced this encounter. After it had become clear that the enemy squad was indeed hacking and watching his stream, Nick decided to negotiate with his opponents. \u201cLord Kevin, can you come in here and tell me if I can res my friends because I don\u2019t want to make you mad or anything,\u201d said Nick. The Pathfinder then grappled his way over to the streamer and shook his head, indicating that only Nick could live. Timestamp of 13:12 Fortunately, the streamer wasn\u2019t about to leave his friends behind. In an attempt to save his squad from the spectator screen, Nick gave one final plea. \u201cCan I res Deeds and then drac, then you kill drac because he\u2019s a piece of sh*t and Deeds is kinda cool?\u201d After pausing to stare at him for a few seconds, the enemy Pathfinder eventually nodded and allowed Nick to res his mate. \u201cWhat the f*ck, you f*cking b*tch. Yo, f*ck that Pathfinder,\u201d shouted drac. Instead of offering support, Nick began to laugh, much to the delight of his newfound friends. However, the hacker alliance didn\u2019t last long after both Nick and Deeds attempted to res their downed comrade. Pathfinder caught wind of the streamer\u2019s plan and quickly eliminated him before he could even react. \u201cNooooo, I\u2019m sorry Kevin! Kevin, I shouldn\u2019t have done it. Kevin\u2019s p*ssed man, Kevin\u2019s never going to be cool, man.\u201d Despite having his game ruined by a team of hackers, Nick seemed in good spirits and instead chose to look at the comical side. Hopefully, Respawn can crackdown on the game\u2019s cheaters, but for now, it\u2019s best to simply report any suspicious in-game behavior to help ban those that use cheats.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NICKMERCS forced to negotiate with hackers in Apex Legends NICKMERCS\/RespawnPopular streamer Nick \u2018NICKMERCS\u2019 Kolcheff was forced to negotiate with Apex Legends hackers after they threatened to derail his ranked match, leading to a comical clip.
