From yesterday when i launch the game, i can play a little but i cant finish the party. The game is just crashing..

I can relaunch but recrashing back on desktop.

Is it linked with the EAC ?

Finally over apex for Linux ? Or, are you still able to play and then I should look logs ?

A week ago they made an announcement referring to anti cheat improvements. Today, a couple of friends on Windows noted that the game no longer launched with AutoHotKey enabled (no malicious use cases, just using 60% keyboards) as of last night's minor update.

Since the game is deck verified, I'd expect respawn will resolve this soon enough.

Maybe the keyboard effectively, i use one like theses, but without AHT,
ive deleted config files to get default ones too, to be sure,

Today no issue, But as you said, we got a minor updates :D

Perhaps they were looking at people using SnapTap and similar technologies, which were recently banned in CS2.

I feel like analogue / hall effect switches can lend a player a substantial advantage in apex when it comes to strafing. I wonder if they've tried to mitigate that.

Apparently so, I took the time to consult forums and steams discussion, and apparently they target the scripts users for strafe, bunnyHop, and users of scripts for no recoils and theses kind of things. Concerning snaptap, a lot of Razer's users got to deactivate something (dont remember), so maybe that :D.

If they dont put the kernel level access, finally, that smelling good lol.
