Respawn Entertainment unveils upcoming Apex Legends updates in a new video. The video highlights significant improvements to the matchmaking system and enhanced anti-cheat measures targeting unfair play, beyond just cheaters. Key changes are detailed below.
Matchmaking improvements include visible skill ratings in unranked modes and optimized queue times. Respawn is also addressing player concerns regarding score calculations and limitations on pre-made squads in ranked matches.
On the anti-cheat front, the focus is on combating team collusion. Existing algorithms have already reduced such incidents. A new penalty notification system will inform players of actions taken against reported accounts. The fight against bots continues with the development of a machine learning model designed to detect and prevent bot creation.
Respawn Entertainment emphasizes ongoing communication with the Apex Legends community. Their commitment is to maintain a fun and competitive gaming experience while upholding the game's integrity.
