The devious plan of the Apex Legends hackers: the plot behind the attacks on their servers and those of Titanfall

The hackers of both titles could be the same, seeking access to the source code of Titanfall.

Apex Legends came as a surprise to the battle royale genre , with a proposal that took mechanics from different successful titles, betting on a free-to-play model from EA and Respawn, creators of Titanfall . Since then, the title has enjoyed great success with an active community and constant content updates, but it has had to face some other problem, such as hackers .

The ones that attacked Apex Legends could be the same ones that attacked TitanfallLast July 4 and taking advantage of the holiday in the United States, Respawn’s battle royale was subjected to a cascade of attacks by hackers who shared a message of protest to make a call to Respawn for the terrible state in the one found Titanfall and its sequel. Both games had been subjected to constant hacker attacks for a long time, making the experience very difficult for gamers of the title.

During the attacks on Apex Legends, players came across a message saying “Save Titanfall . ” The Apex Legends servers finally returned to normal and everything was there, but after exhaustive investigations by the community, we have learned that the story still awaited several script twists.

They wanted to revive Titanfall OnlineAs they tell us from Kotaku , the hackers that attacked Apex Legends could be the same ones that were attacking Titanfall all these years. The hacker P0358 and Redshield , friend and administrator of Remnant Fleet , a Discord group for the Tintafall community, would have been offering Respawn as a solution to the attacks on Titanfall all this time, while at the same time attacking the servers, all this with their backs to the community that meanwhile pressured Respawn.

The aim of these hackers was even more convoluted, since it seems that what they were really looking for was that Respawn, once they gained their trust to help them with the problems, would hire them and thus have access to the source code of Titanfall. Once in Respawn, the plan was to revive Titanfall Online , a free-to-play title for the Asian market that has been canceled. Both the website of the “Save Titanfall” movement and the hackers themselves deny all the accusations.
