Respawn Entertainment unveils upcoming Apex Legends updates in a new video. The video highlights significant changes to the matchmaking system and anti-cheat measures, addressing fair play concerns beyond just combating cheaters.
Matchmaking improvements include visible skill ratings in unranked matches and optimized queue times. Respawn is also addressing ongoing issues such as score calculations and restrictions on pre-made squads in ranked play.
On the anti-cheat front, the focus is on tackling team collusion. Existing algorithms have already reduced such incidents, and a new penalty notification system for reported players is in development. The ongoing battle against bots continues, with a machine learning model being developed to detect and prevent bot proliferation.
Respawn emphasizes continued community engagement. The studio's commitment is to maintain a fun and competitive gaming experience while upholding the game's integrity.
