i do report, and to be fair i do moan a lot, i am old, but its just annoying that players as above just carry on, so whats the point in reporting, tbh a decent ac should be able to pick up all but the most snidey esp users, and i think this was talked about b4 by several people. People that just say l2p are kids with no lifes.

i love to play infantry only stuff, so most of time i play domination, at the moment i have to play tdm-- just pot luck running around like a chicken, or frontlines- changed but no for the best imo.

tdm and dom where always easier to spot cheaters as no sitting in planes or tanks spamming, and after playing many hours of domination i think i could tell when someone is cheating or a good player like macho.

That’s not the case at all. You have no idea if anyone you have played with has been cheating. Chances are that you have. Not everyone makes it obvious when they cheat but it’s easy to catch them when they mess up. I ran into one in back to back matches this morning hence the post. I’m not sure if there is any anti-cheat even running currently. You can easily google aimbots and see that it’s very easy to setup. Anyone that’s been PC gaming for a long time knows what to look for. Aimbot/ESP programs are a huge business right now.

The website that sells that ESP/Aimbot has been up since September. I dunno if DICE has done anything to counter this or are simply thinking "this is a PC gamer’s problem, not a console problem) but it is discouraging when this was the same approach they had to cheaters in BF1.

I have to say, even though I was fully expecting to hear about/encounter cheaters, DICE got my hopes by talking about improvements and now I feel a bit let down. Sure, my fault, but still not what I would have liked to experience in the first days. It was clear from the get go that wallhacks would be far more potent this time around, but so far the information clearly establishes that the encryption efforts have been in vain. This does not instill confidence in Incursions 2.0.

You may think you’re encountering cheaters but I’ve discovered a certain weapon + fire mode combo that almost feels like cheating at times. Just a matter of how fast you can click your mouse and if you care about total points or just kill count.

I’m not taking about feeling of feelings. Encountered two more cheaters today. This is starting to ¯\_(ツ)\_/¯ me off.

I haven’t encountered any cheaters yet and I’ve got about 40 hours into it. I have seen some blatant cheating in BF1. That said, I went 50-0 on the mountain map in a plane earlier.

Actually an old BF3 glitch is back where with low model detail (I think), some cover doesn’t render at certain ranges. Found myself shooting at people in the open sometimes, only to realize when I got closer that there was a box or some cover that wasn’t rendered further away 😑

Some cheaters are rich enough to buy multiple accounts. Why dont you remember their hardware and give them heavy surveillance, then ban them when they are apparent cheating? For example, ban a player’s account with 400 k 10 d and remember his hardware. Ban another account on this hardware immidiately when he get another 100+ k 10- d. You should take thoes recidivsts seriously.

i was playing this game today, and the same guy called the rocket twice within 3 mins, i know ppl can be good, but to be fair 3 min? ahhhhh  
also my friend send me a video link about what is happening in an Asian server 12-nov-2018 (before the official launch), spectator mode, solid cheating evidence at 4 mins, [https://www.bilibili.com/video/av35855291?from=search&seid=11456217589444238579](https://www.bilibili.com/video/av35855291?from=search&seid=11456217589444238579)  
seriously, such things are not encouraging new players to buy the game, take some actions like rainbow six, ban those players permanently, show the cheaters ur attitude, and show regular players that u care about the gaming experience after purchase.

People die and their first instinct is to cry cheater and run to forums.

Last night I had a guy constantly say people are cheating because their profile is set to private? What the hell does that even mean…

I love this map for bombing. I’ve spent the last couple days in vehicles. It’s been a blast.

From talking to other people, the amount of cheats you see really depends on your region. Some regions have rampant cheating while others very little. Fairfight tends to ban the obvious cheats after a while but the less obvious ones seem to get away with it.

I have seen a few cheaters already,blatant cheaters,thankfully this time around i bought the Origin premier subscription instead of buying the game,i wont be wasting any money on this game if i continue to see the cheaters. it ruined BF1 for me but it was already too late on that game.

Good luck finding a game without cheaters in it.

Yeah yesterday i saw some fishy things, its hard to tell in BFV. One guy was teleport knifing and i am almost 100% sure one dude was wallhacking he was going 130 kills on rotty, and after being called by many in chat, next game he finished like 6-6, and he was out than. He was always 3-4 walls away on kill cam.  
But after bleed out, you can never be sure.  
We def need better killcam.

It usually is the case when it comes to fps shooters and good players. That’s not to say there isn’t cheaters because there are, and their always will be and we can’t do anything about them (although most big companies do a decent job). It’s usually the F2P shooters that are rampant with aimbots/hacks that i’ve seen. Paid games generally ¯\_(ツ)\_/¯ away the casual cheater (paying for a game only to get it banned) but they still exist and always will.

I think the ones that have played competitive skilled fps games in tournaments on LAN understands that there are just some freakishily good fps players. I’ve seen some first hand for Q2/Quake 3 in person (I don’t care what people do on tournies thats net only) and watching them play is just unreal. I have some friends that have never seen stuff like that, that bought and played BF3/BF5 and now BF5 and when they die to good players they immediately cry out “hacks!!!”. In their mind in no way shape or form could have killed because they couldn’t kill them first. I just call them noobs in discord and tell them they have no idea what people are actually capable of.

Thus far in my personal time playing BF5 I have yet to come across a cheater, or at least a blatant cheater. Sure their have might have been someone using one but nobody that I have seen so far has had an insane score that was just flat out impossible.
