In our efforts to combat cheating in Apex, we’ve identified Linux OS as being a path for a variety of impactful exploits and cheats. As a result, we’ve decided to block Linux OS access to the game.
Translation: Software development is hard and we would rather spend our time maximizing in-game transactions.
Looks like they use Easy Anti Cheat services which run at the kernel level on windows but not on Linux, that leaves a huge loophole available for Linux which I actually believe will increase cheating dramatically.
As for the software development, that’s on EAC to fix. And in fairness it doesn’t make sense for them financially to do so. Cheating already costs these companies a ton of money to fix as is.
That’s ok, I took away my support for Apex Legends many seasons ago!
Their anti cheat has always been a joke anyway.
Well, time for some review bombing?
I don’t own the game but I would if I did. I don’t have a windows machine to Idle it on that wouldn’t be bogged down by this game so idling it to rack up a few hours to leave a review isn’t exactly feasible.
What the fuck does kernel level cheat detection do when you can just have a robot arm move the mouse based on what a camera sees when it’s pointed at the screen.
Luckily all my friends and I stopped playing this a while ago, there are so many better options nowadays.
