On July 10th, as part of a substantial Anti-Cheat effort, we pushed changes that restricted unintended manipulation of RC Filters and other aim assist exploits. This change resulted in minor behavioral differences to aim assist, particularly at long range. Since the change, our data indicates a ~2-4% reduction in accuracy on controllers, a portion of which is attributed to the prevention of players using the exploits to manipulate aim assist. We abstained from sharing this information initially as we didn't want to show our hand too much to cheaters. We are now in a place where we feel secure enough to share. We believe these Anti-Cheat changes are necessary for the holistic, long-term health of the game. We'll continue to monitor the Anti-Cheat landscape to protect the competitive integrity of Apex Legends and encourage you to revisit your aim assist settings.
