You are a former developer at Respawn? Can you verify that?
Also if you were a dev then you would know what the actual rate was, can you let us know?
Post history pre June 2020 if you want verification.
Do you have a link to where they said this?
I can't give you a link, but I can say as a former dev: As of season 4 the chance was the same as it was at launch, and it was significantly less than 1 in 500.
It's technically possible they've changed it since then, but if they did I can't imagine them making it more likely.
It sounds like you may be having issues with your connection @Tha_BlackHippy. I would suggest taking a look at our Connection troubleshooting steps which you can find here: https://help.ea.com/en-us/help/faq/connection-troubleshooting-ba...

I get that you are frustrated but accusing others if cheating is never acceptable on AHQ.

Hi @RonRightDown,
The ban might not be related to that. We wouldn't have that insight from the forums though. If you feel like there's been some mistake with the application of that ban and that you've never broken the rules, I'd suggest popping in an appeal to the Terms of Service team. They handle any bans or suspensions and can take a look into this for you.

Single player maps sky can be any color.... why do you think that is?
Those games are meant for storytelling and building up a setting, they have the leeway and creative freedoms to make the game look more aesthetically accurate even if it messes with the players' senses. The people playing those games also do so at their own pace, they can pause any time.
MP shooters are more about competitive balance, the playing field, and clear visuals. And, like you said, you can't have a map that makes your players drowsy after playing it for an hour, especially in a game like Apex.
Unfortunate about the engine limitations but it is what it is. I didn't know for sure, but I'm glad I don't have to wonder anymore.
Thanks again for your answers.
dude, you are dead on target!
I'd say the skybox in the video is darker and more nightly in some scenes. So I appreciate where you guys wanted to go creatively and, after you confirmed it, I understand why you guys had to go with more function over aesthetics.
Was visibility also an issue when designing the "After Dark" skyboxes? I assumed Broken Moon would have a similar dark tone.
Exactly
It suck as an artist to work on MP titles. It limits our creativeness down to the drain. It is what it is.
It looks cool. But I'm curious why the decision was made to make the skybox look nothing like how the sky would actually look like on the moon. Was it solely for player visibility?
Why would it always be bright and sunny with a rich atmosphere on the moon?
Wouldn't a night sky illuminated by the sunlight reflected off of Earth be cooler and more fitting to the moon setting?
A starry night sky with light poles, flood lights, and other light fixtures illuminating the ground and it's POIs and paths would've looked amazing.
Skybox aside, the map doesn't resemble the moon. Too much greenery, not enough gray dirt, no low gravity POIs, no big craters, no meteor showers, etc. It looks like Earth everywhere and it being sunny daytime everywhere doesn't help.
I really thought this map would be more eerie and sullen like Seer.
Was it solely for player visibility?
Sadly yes...... and game engine limitation.
Look at my youtube video and compare that to the actual game visual, what do you see differently?
