The response introduces false information to mislead the dataminers so that they do not steal surprises

One of the most common methods by the editors is to disclose information extracted from various reviews looking for potential issues. At the time, some studies reported that in game code you can find information about discarded items that were not removed from the code. And that many leaks expose options, characters, maps and options that eventually do not come. The Apex Legends studio responsible for this has moved you to a new level. The response introduces false information to mislead the dataminers so that they do not steal surprises.

And they set a very specific example, the hero Forge. As reported internally Dotted areas Jason McCord, Forge is a character designed to mislead databases and they confirm that he is a hero that will never come to Apex Legends. It's a bit of a surprise, but McCord describes it as a way to prevent word critics from submitting information they want to give at a specific time and steals a surprise moment for their ads.

Forge's example emerges as a trend they wanted to "# 39; s playing with data miners", creating false information to divert their attention. "Well, it started out as a fun way to distract the miners who, at the time, felt that they had solved our next myth and we marred our surprise." McCord's comment. "In fact, we deliberately created the art of fake concept and patch information in the Forge kit, so there will be a breadcrumbs track where we will announce it."

And in the end, the myth that emerged was a testament, leaving the details of these information practitioners forgotten. In a way, it seems like a far cry, but from Respawn Entertainment they are proud that they managed to divert attention and surprise with the announcement at Apex Legends after such a long time. "It's really crazy, actually. I can't think of another game in the past like this," McCod notes in the middle, as a sign of pride. The response introduces false information to mislead literary critics into theft, and confirms that Ultimately Forge won't make it to Apex Legends.

Now the lesson must be asked is that the time they lost in this Machiavellian type of program could have been appropriately invested in factors that benefit the real players. However, they have serious problems with keeping up with the competition, which can be added to a proposal such as Call of Duty: Warzone, which has pulled the record low for its launch.
