How the New Changes Will Affect Apex Legends' Gameplay
Apex has a long history of issues with cheaters in the game. Despite their efforts, Respawn couldn't pinpoint the root of the issue. This new update, however, marks a step towards improvement. Introducing a 3-rank tier difference between players will balance opponents and contribute to a fairer and more enjoyable experience.
Another change players eagerly anticipated was the correct display of Ranked badges. Following issues arising from the latest April Fools update, players reported losing their account progress and previous rewards. Although Respawn is now restoring the correct Ranked Badges to everyone affected, some players still do not see their rightful rank. Hopefully, this issue will be resolved as time goes on.

How to Get the Free Apex Packs
The bug mentioned after the April Fool Event certainly brought a lot of inconvenience to players. Understanding the situation and the feedback from players, Respawn is providing each and every Apex player with 8 Apex Packs. While they are still finalizing their fixes for the data loss that some players experienced, these packs serve as a 'thank you' from the producers to the players for their patience.
Even if you didn't experience any issues, you will still receive the rewards. All you have to do to claim those 8 Apex Packs is to log in before the final day for the gift, which is April 24 at 10 PM.
