I've got banned from Apex Legends in c/linux_gaming@lemmy.world

Why would I open this post if I was actually cheating ? The whole point is that I got banned but never cheated. This is a false positive related to playing with proton.

I did try to create a new account, but it's really annoying because my original EA account is linked to my steam account, and cannot be unlinked. So I would need another steam account as well. Unless I can figure out a way to play without steam, which I'm not sure how to do because of... you guessed it, fucking anti-cheat.

I never spend money on in-game items, so technically I was already not buying from them. I just enjoyed playing this game with my friends is all.

I'm sorry to say it is extremely popular (for some good reasons imo) and my friends are playing it. Besides, not a lot of competitive games even support linux to begin with. I was grateful that Apex did until now.

No it is free to play. Besides, since I don't care much about skins and whatnot, I've never spent a dime on the game.

Got greeted with this message today. I've been playing Apex on linux for more than a year. Not sure if this could be related? Is this just me?

I've contested the ban and I'm currently waiting for a response from ea support.

UPDATE : Got an email response from EA today. It's basically a generic message saying that my account was associated with "cheating practices" and so they will not remove the ban.

This is absolutely fucking ridiculous! I've been playing this game since 2020 and have 3K+ hours on record, now this shit happens and there's no recourse ? Fuck this company.

I played this game so much as a kid. I'm eager to try out this new release.

I play games on Pop_OS (NVIDIA edition) and also run an AMD CPU. Great experience for 2 years now.

Importing that data into a RDBMS would be ideal. I'd use PostgreSQL for this but any other would work.

To be fair, I didn't see the option on other lemmy apps I've tried, but I use the crosspost feature a lot on desktop, and would really love that feature on Boost.

The app is really nice tho, thank you for this great first release.
