Discussion: Apex Legends says EA Javelin Anticheat blocked 265,550 cheat attempts in week one

[GAMER2GO Newsroom]

Respawn says the new anti-cheat system prevented more than 265,000 cheating attempts, issued 12,969 bans, and will bring console updates in the coming weeks.

Read the full story. What do you think?

The split between prevented attempts and bans is the useful part here. A ban wave looks good on a headline, but prevention tells you whether the cheat actually got to interact with matches in the first place.

also 40 cheat programs tracked means the meta is already fragmented lol. when anti-cheat only chases one signature, cheat devs just swap build and keep the farm alive.

does that mean the real test is how fast they update detections after new hardware shows up? because if console gets ignored, the problem just shifts around.
