APEX LEGENDS developers have stated Stop harassment. Some users argue that they are due to the developer, but that's not the reason for justification

Resown Entertainment, the developer of Apex Legends , published a statement on September 23 for harassment from an increasing user. It seems that the user gave an opinion from the user in response to the statement.

APEX LEGENDS is an online FPS handled by Resown Entertainment. Live services are continuing while separating the season, and a new season has been distributed in about 90 days. Updates are implemented during events and other events during each season. Limited time mode will be held, and game balance will be adjusted. Interaction between development staff and users on SNS is also active, and there are occasional shows that they are exchanging opinions over balance adjustment policies and malfunction reports.

However, it seems that some users have been sent to the development staff. Regarding the current situation, the official Twitter account has published a statement. He has stated his opinion on the increase in harassment.

According to the statement, harassment to members of the development team has recently increased. Although the opinions of the community welcome, it is said that the boundary between constructive feedback and harassment to the team is clear. They say they will take a resolute response to intimidation and harassment, and are preparing to take appropriate measures to ensure team health and safety.

On the other hand, the statement emphasizes that constructive feedback is very good for the team. The developer seems to want a relationship that teams and users will respect and cooperate with each other. He has stated that he wants to maintain the competitiveness of the game in cooperation with the user community.

The other day, a professional team Curia player HISWATTSON revealed an aggressive attitude toward the developer due to insufficient cheat measures (related articles). His attitude was criticized by many users, including other professionals. In response to this statement, the development side has been approached by the development side. For example, Jack Martin, a former professional player, Viewing. He says that the developers should not forget that they have a life.

On the other hand, some critical users can see this official statement on the increase in harassment. They point out dissatisfaction in various games, such as matchmaking, audio issues, and unstoppable cross-progress nations. He seems to be wondering if the community's opinions and feedback are really reflected in the game. Some of these users are accused of harassment and intimidation, but are still skeptical of the developer's operations. In this way, it would be asserted that the developer also causes criticism.

However, in any case, the content of the game and the dissatisfaction with the fraudulent people should not be turned into attacking the developer. If harassment to developers deteriorates, the developer may close the interaction with the user. Bungee, the developer of Destiny 2, also sympathized in the tweet of Resown Entertainment. At the same time, the need to build a healthy community to confront some slander and harassment from some users. BUNGEE recently revealed that the interaction with the community was reduced due to intimidation from users (related articles).

Similarly, the interaction between the APEX LEGENDS development team and users seems to have been declining recently. A user has pointed out at AMA (ASK Me Anything) by developers performed by Reddit the other day. Looking at the thread with the Reddit tag Dev Reply Inside!, There are about 50 threads during the 11th season. On the other hand, it can be seen that the number has decreased significantly in recent years, with 28 cases in the season 12 and 12 in Season 13. Like Bungee, it is possible that Resown Entertainment had been in the REDDIT exchange with the increase in harassment. Even if you are dissatisfied with the developer, it is not a reason to justify ranting. Feedback and rants to dissatisfaction should be separated.

Prior to this statement, the developer carried out the AMA mentioned above. Interesting comments from developers have come out, including the future implementation of Titan Weapon Softball in Titan Fall 2. Based on the opinions of the user, there were also ways to consider future implementation content. In long-term live service titles, the exchange between users and developers may be certainly significant. Users' cooperation is essential for continuing such exchange. Even if you are dissatisfied with the content of the game and the status of operation, harassment and slander of developers and developers are serious acts. We hope that feedback will be done properly and that such exchanges and games will continue to be improved in the future.
