Apex Legends is an intense game at the best of times, and the ranked experience is even more of a roller-coaster ride with precious RP points on the line. For that reason, it\u2019s all the more painful to see a ranked game ruined by a hacker. However, it does happen from time to time, and when it does, there\u2019s no system in place to prevent players from losing RP points. It\u2019s treated no different from any other elimination and loss, which is painful. Apex Legends players have been vocal about it for some time. The consensus is it\u2019s unfair, unjust, and downright absurd. Fortunately, it seems the devs are inclined to agree, and they\u2019re finally considering doing something about it. The news came straight from the horse\u2019s mouth. Jason McCord, the Design Director of Apex Legends, briefly mentioned it in the latest Respawn Responds video. \u201cWe are currently looking into what we can do for players that have had their game impacted by a cheater,\u201d he said. \u201dThis might look something like retroactive loss forgiveness where you\u2019ll get your RP back if we find that you had a cheater in your ranked match.\u201d Unfortunately, he didn\u2019t elaborate any further. But it\u2019s still music to the ears of thousands of players who know all too well what it\u2019s like to have a ranked game ruined by a hacker. Respawn has doubled down on their efforts to stamp hackers with anti-cheat measures. However, it\u2019s still a big problem, especially in terms of how it impacts regular players. A loss forgiveness system is, without a doubt, a step in the right direction.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Respawn are \u201cconsidering\u201d Apex Legends loss forgiveness if hackers ruin ranked games Respawn EntertainmentApex Legends players have had to deal with losing RP in ranked matches ruined by hackers for a long time now, but it seems like that could change after the developers revealed a loss forgiveness system could be in the works.
