I wanted to use some trainers in singleplayer so my experience can be even better, and i have already completed it in Normal difficulty without cheats, and i want to play it again WITH them. Please try to focus on my question rather than be a ¯\_(ツ)\_/¯ and say things like “Why do you want to cheat?” “Singleplayer too hard for you?” “Only noobs cheat”, and thanks in advance. ---

You will not get banned but If you want to be 100% sure play BF1 offline ---

It is somewhat a gray area. I mean, You are injecting code which is essentially reverse engineering the software so that you have certain advantages in the campaign ( which is against the EA Terms Of Service ) Though I personally have not seen anybody be suspended for cheating in single player.. This does not mean it is not possible however. On the flip side, It is campaign and you are playing against AI thus not really harming anybody. I will ask and get back to you on this. ---

Okay I have had a little chat with other moderators and we have all come to the same conclusion. We as a whole recommend **not** cheating at all, As there is the likelyhood you will forget to exit the game and inadvertently join multiplayer and then permanently losing your access to multiplayer. That and also the fact that it is strictly forbidden in the EA Terms Of Service which falls under “No altering of files or using 3rd party tools like cheat engines.” Doing so is likely to introduce an Account ban which means you lose access to your entire Origin account and all games associated with it. I would steer well clear. I am going to have to lock this down now that the answer is final.
