How can the cheater situation be so different in the different regions?

I see very few cheaters in US servers (at least eastern US servers). I’ve actually seen more in EU servers. I’ve hear that Asian servers are infested though.

You know what i think is big issue is ping . I live in Asia , China to be exact but am forced to play on Japanese servers . The closest would have to be around 2000km maybe further , might sound funny but many times when you are playing with such a ping handicap from when you die to where it shows the shooter they may have moved 5 meters in the game . The pings dont display correct / true ping reading ,BF4 was also the same ( would say ping of 60 but actually it was around 130 )
So people die , see battle replay and scream wall hack or aimbot , or when in 1 v1 gun fight meeting around corner generally loose out as it takes them extra second to fire the other guy has already shot and moved on .
Of course there are still blatant hacks / cheats as well but not as many as people think , well thats my opinion and I am on the receiving end

Some problems may be due to high pings.
But..
High ping does not contribute to 1 shot killing every enemy from far across the map with LMGs.
High ping does not make you be able to drop a med kit immediately after firing a flare as a recon (without picking up tools from dead medics).
High ping does not make to be able to spawn on a new tank everytime instantly after you’re dead.
I encountered all the above situations. They’re obviously cheating.

If you complain about high ping, you may try Hong Kong servers instead of Japanese ones.
