What I find interesting in that video is the cheater appears to be using a controller instead of a mouse. I wonder if that has to due with the aimbot going undetected, or if he just feels more comfortable using a controller.
On a positive note, ever since BFV came out there’s been very little cheating in BF1.
holy f, never have I met with 4 cheaters in 3 consecutive matches, until today. first match was in twisted steel (aimboter) with end game score of 80K / 10D, rotterdam (aimboter) 130K / 13D, last round in panzerstorm (aimboter and damage modifier) damage modifier in the opp team, player was using FLAK 38, my panzer tank was killed by him within 3 secs for 3 times and once in a figher (1 secs).
Played BF3, BF4, BF1 and now BF5. Maybe i’m lucky i dunno, but in 6 years of BF gaming i have come across a cheater twice. 1000 times a round with players with some amazing scores, simply cause they are great players. As for the 2 moments of having a cheater in a round i played…simple, leave the server and move on to a new one. Best anti cheat method ever ever.
If you honestly believe in 6 years there have only ever been 2 cheaters in your lobby then you must be very very bad at spotting them,its as simple as that.
Try me… played BF3, BF4, BF1 and now BF5. Have come across a cheater in a round in all of the mentioned BF series…twice. Maybe a hundred times i have been in a round were the top scores where kinda awesome, cause they were simply awesome players.
And in those two rounds i did what is best to do, leave server, join a new one and move on. Best anti cheat method ever ever.
Maybe i am one of those who just don’t take gaming serious enough to let cheaters ruin my day, spotting them is quite easy, maybe i just don’t do enough QQ.
If a player only uses wallhack, then you’re never gonna spot him. He will do better than average, but could be in the same league as a legit top player.
It’s just that he spots everyone, and knows where you are hiding in the bushes or behind rocks.
If you’re quick, you can still kill him. Then there are the higher damage hacks alongside, with higher health. You will usually loose from those hacks, but if enough are firing on him, then he still dies. He will just have the upperhand in most situations.
If it were only the blatant ones, then it wouldn’t be so worrying. Easily detected, and just as easy to not respawn, or disconnect.
It’s the hidden ones that ruin the experience for many.
During BF3 there was blatant advertizing, even with guys demonstrating it in servers.
And that’s why there need to be dedicated servers. So at least an admin can provide a decent game.
Maybe if we all sue EA for not deliver the experience they promised over commercial offers, then they will do something… or they will just remove this post and that’s it.
With all the AI running around these days, why don’t they use it to ban people who hacks. They just ruin the game for everyone… even for them…
[edit Mar 15, 2019 1816 UTC. A forum user named Ravic sent me a direct message, saying that my comment below was being (or could be) misinterpreted as accusing Ravic of cheating. This was not at all the intention of my post. I was accusing some unknown player of using a spotting hack. The only reason I mentioned that a player with “ravic” in their username was to point out that I was in the same match as the poster I quoted. I’ve removed my last sentence to prevent this confusion, and fixed a typo]
I was in this same match with you. I joined it way late though. There was someone on our team using a spotting cheat. It was spotting 100% of the enemy team. I looked for the person on our team with a high score, and low kill count. And pointed out in chat, that they are a possible suspect for the spotting cheat. That person did what all good cheaters do, and LOL’d me. But, for some reason the spotting cheat stopped happening after that.
After seeing the YouTube video from the site you copied and pasted the above text from and checked the account used in the video and I could not believe this account is still live and has not been banned! Then in the video box on the right, I saw jackfrags video and clicked on it and started watching his video and it was just like the video from that site but the ESP boxes that are highlighting the enemy location have been hidden. When he is inside the building he acts stupid but the rest of the time… I can understand YouTube streamers would pay so much to look good but I cannot understand why so many players would pay for ESP when they get nothing out of it at the end of the day.
Please give us the option to switch sides like you can in BF4.
It has taken me years to get to rank 140 in BF4 but I learnt that I can’t beat them so join them which means I would switch to the side with the most hackers and would ignore them and just enjoy the game and win and be tenth in the score and laughing at the guys paying for hax to come first.
I have noticed the BF5 servers seem to bunch all the hackers to one side so you will have one side with 10 hackers and the other side with say 2 hackers. What happens is all the players start leaving the losing side because of the obvious hackers slaughtering them so we land up with and an unbalanced game which is not fun and I cannot switch sides. Have you noticed the same clan tags are all sharing the same hacks but now they cannot move sides.
Just found a guy going 110 and 10 in domination. I went on Battlefield Tracker and he has 2600 head shots and only 4000 kills… He got defensive when I called him out on it and told him to at least hide his stats if he is going to cheat.
yea lets not have multiple discussions on this topic and close all the others then maybe with only one , people will forget how bad this game has become with cheaters. Instead of about another discussion on cheating just freaking fix the issue then it will go away - you guys at DIce/ Origin are just pussies and only want the money. EA has corrupted your vision and now you could care less - just take my $40 - $80 for 2 weeks of watching cheaters blister you in game and you wont get any of my $$$$ on your next POS you dont support either but thats cool at least I got to put a jacket on my soldier. Thats more important than fixing the game…
Out of 3 long days of gaming in BF5, I only manage to find 1 blatant cheater, he went like 205 and 9 and said to me "Its called a shotgun with slugs, ". What is he claiming this is 870 in BC2? Lol.
