Apex Legends was a smash hit when it released on February 4, as the game was able to attract 50 million players in no time at all. However, that player base might be at risk of falling out of love with the constant hindrance that cheaters are becoming to the game. During a broadcast on March 20, shroud voiced his concerns about the persistent wave of hackers in Apex, which he thinks could spell doom for the title unless the company makes some changes. Shroud noted that he had talked to Respawn about prioritizing a reliable anti-cheat system to the game. Though the developers have since added a report function to their title, he doesn\u2019t think it\u2019ll be enough to stop the influx of cheaters. \u201cThat was my big concern when I talked to [Respawn Entertainment] about this game, ages ago,\u201d shroud said. \u201cI was like, \u2018if you don\u2019t handle cheaters well, no report system will save you.\u2019 \u2026A report system is literally useless, [unless] you figure a way to get rid of them. Hopefully that doesn\u2019t happen, but it\u2019s looking like it\u2019s going to happen.\u201d The former CS:GO pro didn\u2019t take Respawn\u2019s predicament lightly, since he knows how cheaters tend to get out of hand \u2013 especially with free-to-play titles. But, while the streamer thinks that free-to-play \u201cis the way to go,\u201d a lack of a solution for the hackers could hold a grim future for Apex. \u201cI\u2019m telling you,\u201d shroud said. \u201cThe cheaters are going to ruin this game. It\u2019s so hard to fight cheaters, you can\u2019t win.\u201d Shroud was at his wit\u2019s end to preventing cheaters other than Respawn contacting Epic Games for their anti-cheat system. Regardless, something is going to have to happen soon to stave off the growing concern.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Shroud details the biggest problem that is \u201cgoing to ruin\u201d Apex Legends Respawn Entertainment \/ shroud TwitchTwitch star Apex Legends, but a burgeoning problem in Respawn Entertainment\u2019s battle royale is making him think the company has long-term problems ahead of them.
