Twitch streamer accused of \u201cobviously aimbotting\u201d in Apex Legends RespawnA number of Apex Legends players and Twitch viewers are fiercely debating whether one streamer is using \u201cobvious\u201d aim hacks during his broadcasts or not. Apex Legends released back on February 4 to much acclaim as Respawn Entertainment took their Titanfall universe and put a battle royale spin on things. The game was an immediate success, racking up 50 million players inside the first month. However, with such a huge player base and the game drawing massive attention on Twitch, some players have opted to hack in a bid to get a leg up. Respawn have already banned an eye-watering amount of players, but new cheats still pop up and slip under the radar. Cheaters can regularly found with exploits like wall-hacks and aimbots, which clearly gives them a massive advantage. Twitch streamer bjerrehusdk is now being accused of joining that long list of cheaters as some viewers accused him of utilizing an exploit. Viewers noticed something strange about his June 4 stream, as bjerrehusdk hit long-range shots with such incredible accuracy that it would put him on par with top players like NRG\u2019s Coby \u2018dizzy\u2019 Meadows. It wasn\u2019t just one instance that sent the alarm bells ringing, though. The streamer carried on his incredible accuracy during a gunfight in the Bridge Valley area \u2013 tracking players movements with pinpoint precision. *Clip deleted* As clips of evidence began to pile up against the streamer, he responded with thinly veiled sarcasm when one viewer asked him to share his hack: \u201cI can\u2019t give you the name of my hack, sorry guys.\u201d He added: \u201cI\u2019m not sharing,\u201d before a voice in the background, perhaps one of his in-game teammates, jokingly offered to share their hack with players. *Clip deleted* Redditors debate cheating or not cheating Some members of the LivestreamFails subreddit, which amasses clips from Twitch, accused the streamer of \u201cobviously aimbotting\u201d when the highlights came to their attention. One Redditor made a plea to the livestreaming platform, commenting: \u201cHey twitch staff! We know you lurk this sub. Ban this obvious cheater.\u201d Another poster, beliving the player was hacking, questioned why streamers choose to stream with hacks. \u201cWhy would he stream that? What is the thought process?\u201d they added. However, it wasn\u2019t all negative for the streamer as some commenters jumped to his defense. User intoss kicked off a long paragraph of support by posting: \u201cI came into this clip expecting blatant cheats, but honestly after watching and rewatching plenty of times, it just looks like a good player.\u201d Another poster, \/u\/TehICii, added to the defensive stance, stating: \u201cCame here to say exactly this. This guy is not \u201cobviously\u201d aimbotting,\u201d before explaining that they\u2019ve hit similar shots despite not being a \u201cgood player.\u201d Will bjerrehusdk be banned from Twitch or Apex Legends? As of writing on June 6, bjerrehusdk\u2019s Twitch channel remains active. Hacking on stream is against Twitch\u2019s terms of use, so if the platform investigates the matter and deems the streamer guilty of aimbotting, he will likely face a lengthy suspension. However, with no concrete evidence to suggest that the player is anything less than a skilled aimer, it seems unlikely that his channel will face any bans, temporary or permanent, for the time being. Respawn are constantly detecting new cheats so anyone that is hacking runs the risk of having their Apex Legends account shut down.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
