Could be just a rise in the number of better players who have increased their skill/abilities over time. Many good players will have alt accounts for fun and start over with fresh aims. So you’ll see low ranks doing exceptionally well in such cases.
..Or they are all cheaters… report anyone who appears suspicious and then move on and let the AC dept decide if they are cheating or not. Problem is.. the ac dept is probably flooded with reports both legit and false.. while being low staffed?! Would like to see the likes of BEye onboard to help out and provide additional security to existing measures.
Actually, I see most of them being moderate to high rank and cheating. They think that by playing legit for a while and start cheating later on they can keep playing longer before getting banned, and it seems to work because I read on cheat sites that this helps a lot to stay undetected longer or even not getting caught at all if you don’t use aimbot all the time. I am still tracking a few players who never got banned after almost a year despite the fact that they are cheating. I am 100% sure they are cheating because I recorded their gameplay and their aim was frequently locking perfectly onto evasive/unpredictable enemy movement, that’s simply not possible no matter how good you are. Every single skilled legit player I’ve ever seen never had their aim locking on like that, there was always a little inaccuracy or delay in the aim adjustment.
The anti-cheat measures are still lacking IMO, a lot more should be and could be done to help combating cheating in games.
Or, for example, the guy in the server I was playing on a couple of hours ago who turned on the rage cheat and killed practically my entire team from the D flag on Brusilov.
Or the guy last night who went 120-10 on Fort de Vaux in a 15 minute match.
New title “Impossible to play without being called a cheat” … I can tell you cheating is down 99% in BF1 ,During its 1st year 10% of the player base was cheating (provable). From monitoring the cheat websites I now know that it is very difficult to obtain the offsets needed to create ESP and aimbot DICE has encrypted all pointers which point from entity to entity of a specific entity type as they put it . They (cheat coders) have blamed the performance issues in game to this encryption but I know I would prefer a playable game without as many cheats at the cost of 10-20fps .Unfortunately the forums are full of people complaining about low fps so Dice is in a catch 22 situation . Fairfight is also using new methods to catch those who are using subscription cheats from the large online pay monthly companies . The only public cheats left are the AHK scripts but these appear difficult to get to work and poor in comparison to the full ESP/aimbot cheats that were rife pre November update .I havnt seen any rage hackers in months . All in all I would now say Dice are doing a damn good job and my stats have gone up considerably since November
That’s awesome news @D5RAT I’m glad to see your having a much better experience now. Let’s keep our fingers crossed it stays like this for a long bloody time!!!
Thanx for the usefull feedback @D5RAT .
What i wonder is; ate these low ranked players (which appear alot lately) the cheaters that got their account reset or baned?
Because in my experience 80% of the players in the servers i play on are rank 100 or lower.
It will be the banned players coming back on with new accounts now that the game has been heavily discounted ,hopefully they’ll be playing without cheats this time although you do get the odd rage hacker at extremely low levels on trial accounts but they are soon banned, although I haven’t seen one of those in a while. What makes me laugh about the new accounts is some of them have the same names they used originally but with a letter or number different .
This thread has already served its purpose ..where you here when 10% of the population were using free to download cheats that were totally undetectable ? going to 100 to 1 day after day without getting banned ? I don’t think you where or you wouldn’t need to ask . Also why do players who are top 2% in the world hide their origin accounts ? It’s bizzare to me but there must be a reason why they hide friends and games
