Respawn Entertainment unveils upcoming Apex Legends updates in a new video. The video highlights significant improvements to matchmaking and anti-cheat measures, addressing concerns beyond just combating cheaters.
Matchmaking changes include visible skill ratings in unranked modes and optimized queue times. Respawn is also actively addressing scoring inconsistencies and restrictions on pre-made squads in ranked play.
On the anti-cheat front, the focus is on tackling team collusion. Improved algorithms have already reduced such incidents. A new penalty notification system will inform players of actions taken against reported accounts. The ongoing battle against bots continues, with a machine learning model in development to detect and prevent bot creation.
Respawn reaffirms its commitment to community engagement. The studio aims to maintain Apex Legends as a fair and enjoyable competitive experience, preserving the game's integrity.
