Current gen Xbox already supports 120hz, but no games take advantage of it. That could change with next gen. If a game can do 60fps @ 4k it should do 120fps @ 1440p.

Hopefully developers add native mouse support to PS5 games. Even if I have to game at 60fps and use a XIM adapter, I’m still switching to PS5. These last 3 years of dealing with cheaters in Battlefield games has left a bad taste in my mouth. Cheating in all PC games for that matter.

My safe haven has been Sim racing tbh till something is done.

If they don’t block the use of aftermarket controllers with built in cheat macros then they’ll just have less cheating than PC, but there will still be cheating.

My preference would be they lock out all 3rd party devices, and maybe Sony would would license mice and keyboards from a 3rd party.. logitech, razer, etc. Highly doubt that would happen. At least bots and wallhacks wouldn’t be a thing. Heck.. just take recoil out of the games, problem solved. Otherwise everyone is going to have to go through the hassle to setup no-recoil macros on their mice.

I will not be surprised if BF6 is not even released for the PC.

I can deal with 60fps but if there’s no native mouse support for Battlefield on PS5 that’s going to suck! I’ll be very depressed, because XIM is ok but not great. I like whipping the mouse around really fast, and you can’t do that with XIM.

I think it’s highly likely the time that they bring native mnk to consoles.

Cheating is a lucrative business, they will see consoles as the next item to conquer.  
People moving up the ladder by cracking devices and releasing cheats for it. I’m pretty confident they find ways in the new hardware from next gen consoles.  
Especially since that hardware is more and more a complete PC. Just wait and see.  
In any case, it would be dumb from a company to abandon anti cheat, just because they change platform.

Agreed, I think a big part of the problem is EA’s policies. If someone can be caught using a hack in one EA game and be banned but still be allowed to play other EA games, EA simply is not serious about discouraging cheating.

If EA are serious about cheating, they need to get together with other game publishers and lobby governments to make the use of commercial cheats illegal in the same way that counterfeiting and commercial copyright infringement is illegal. As a consumer, I have the right to enjoy whatever I’ve bought without someone else infringing my right to enjoy it. Banning cheaters is ineffective at best, because of the constant arms race between the cheat programmers and anti-cheat software. I’m not saying this would eliminate cheating altogether, but it would make these cheat sites think twice if they’re expecting a knock on their door from the police and being forced to pay massive damages.

Not disagreeing with you about your right to enjoy a game without someone else cheating-- however do you really think police/anyone has time to enforce video game cheating laws? Enforcement has to come from the community, including players, developers and publishers.

Agreed. I’m pretty sure society has bigger issues than cheating in computer games rofl.  
Creating and distribution the software excluded, as they do break pre-existing laws, but enforcing it can be complicated when it’s outside your jurisdiction.

[Rumor mill]Looks like some heavy bonus cuts are about to happen at dice la. Front line workers are about to get hit hard(about 50%) unfairly the execs are only taking a 25% hit so that can kind of tell you the future still looks pretty bleak. Even with bad company 3 on the horizon I’m not optimistic in the slightest for any changes in the anti cheat or the game itself.

Lvl 6 leads the board with a new EA account - just started playing BF5. He’s not cheating, he just has good muscle memory and a knack for wargames. LOL @ EA.

I don’t buy into the rumor mill but I hope they fire all their “talent”. I don’t believe the developers play this game. If they did the hackers would have been gone. Unbearable.

Played firestorm last night and watched a guy spawn in gear in the middle of the hanger. It was funny to watch him spew out 30 guns and ammo but then we realized hey… wonder if he does it during the round. So i thought it was only a dayz thing now its in bfv 😬👍
