Apex Legends spectator bug gives players zero gun recoil
While every Apex Legends update brings plenty of new content to the battle royale title, there are times when bugs can slip through the net. Well, this is what appears to have happened with this strange spectator screen problem.
Apex Legends YouTuber,Skeptation, posted a clip that revealed how broken the game’s spectator screens are at the moment. In the video, the content creator showcased how certain guns like the P2020, Wingman, and RE-45 Auto all have minimal recoil when viewed from the spectator screen.
This can obviously look incredibly suspicious when a player lands all their shots. Skeptation noted that this bug doesn’t actually remove any recoil, but the spectator screen makes it look like legit players are hacking.
