There is no word from Respawn regarding this latest cheating technique, but there is a high possiblity that it will be addressed.

So far, the only method is to report the account and hope Respawn takes action. For DarthAesder, soft cheating is worse than full-on cheating, since 'new players are disillusioned because they think they are being outplayed on pure skill, and veteran players being killed instantly makes one suspicious of cheats which actually punishes good players.'Īnother problem with soft cheating is that detecting the account that cheated is difficult. The aimbot is still activated, but the anti-cheat system will think it's a human. Thus, rather than getting 100% hit rate, the aimbots are adjusted so that the hit rate is only 70% for example. Soft cheating is when cheaters tweak their aimbots so that it becomes undetected by anti-cheat algorithms. However, there has been an increase in cheaters thanks to this new soft cheating technique. In a Reddit post by user DarthAesder, it appears that the ban wave worked pretty well, as the chances of encountering a cheater was lowered to around 10%. Even with this in place, Apex Legends continue to suffer from players who use aimbots, among other cheats. This time around, Respawn targeted the hardware ID of the players resulting in them not being able to join the game once they have been banned. In the past, actions like these result in banned players simply making a new account. During the first week of April, Respawn Entertainment initiated a ban on hackers and cheaters.
