This, until there is a client side anti-cheat software, people will continue to hack the game. Content has been slow in coming and there was less of it to start with than BF4.
In regards to general pc gaming many titles flourish but the battlefield series is diminishing at an alarming rate.
Any future battlefield games I purchase will be for console only.
And to be honest the way the franchise is heading at the moment I can’t see me even buying another battlefield full stop!
@ OP No, from a business point of view, the game is already old, it was a success and made enough money already, there is exactly 0.00 reason to do anything at all , they already work on their next project and dont care what you me or any other customer is saying or thinking or whatever doing , all that counts is the next game and the x % customers lost will be filled with x% new customers , its a business after all, you know…
The problem for EA is cheating is a credibility issue. It’s not that common to have obvious cheats, like 200 - 2, but there are lots of cheats turned on and off in the game like ESP, anti recoil, excess damage, etc.
Only a fool uses a cheat 100% of the time. They even warn you about that at the cheat sites. Yes, I peruse those sites just to watch the cheat videos, and I read some of the forums just to get a feel for what to look for.
EA should be buying cheats on the QT in secret, then coding around them. These cheat sellers are making money.
Am still bewildered how movie studios can shut down websites and torrent engines pretty much at will.
But type in bf1 cheats and google explodes with page after page in 0.1secs.
Am not sure ea are taking this seriously lol!
At least try and make it harder for them rather than do nothing
Don’t bother with consoles, the cheat writers have already moved into that area as well. I warned EA, I said if they didn’t stop cheating in PC arena the money made there would allow the writers to move into the console market, and they now have.
Until date there is nobody who can execute custom code (needed for wallhack /esp /aimbot) on a Playstation 4 while using the PSN, for the PS4 even a proper “jailbreak” dosent exist wich in turn means the chance for a wallhack or similiar existing for any game on PS4 is literal at 0 .
In short and general. you do not play on official multiplayer network aka “PSN” with a “hacked” console.On XBox possible,because Xbox is jailbreaked and garbage, but very rare and unlikely .The cheater numbers on Xbox are as high as the cheaters in this forums claim “i seen one cheater in 500h”. On PS4 there is not a single cheater in any OFFICIAL PSN multiplayer game in the whole world.Exploits and bugabusement are the only issue and are game related and some super noobs try to use lagswitches on PSN but Sony started to detect that and bans you for it.Compared to PC , Console is clean from “cheat” like a man made vacuum is free from air.
With the comming streaming technologies, cheating and also game piratery (cracked games) will become a thing of the past and will not exist anymore at all in less than 20 years.Nvidia ,Microsoft and Sony invested 4 milliard $ the last 5 years to develop reliable widespread 100% streamed gameing technology, one of the results is Nvidia Shield and is only the beginning of the final dead of the “wallhackers , botters and aimers and ESPers” as you know them today.
There are golden game times ahead for those who want to fair play.
Sorry, but you have absolute no idea what is going on in the industry, a typical common phenomenon in internet forums, people talk about things they have absolute no idea about and then when someone comes and tells them they enrage like a disturbed anthill.
Yeah, it’s ironic, but undoubtedly one of the reasons the PC is infested with cheats is because you can’t cheat on the newer consoles. So where do you think all the cheats have gone ? Given up ? Nah. They’ve just migrated to the PC instead.
All the ‘millenials’ who grew up cheating on the Xbox, PS2, 360, PS3 etc…well, now they can afford a PC and $20 a month to pay for ‘hacks’.
That’s why cheating seems to have gotten worse on the PC, because it has. The PC now has all the cheats, not just some of them. It’s not just BF1 btw, you can type ‘xxx hacks’ into Google replacing ‘xxx’ with pretty much any online PC game you can think of and find hacks galore. BF1 just makes it super easy, that’s all.
Buying cheats for BF on consoles: Google for it, it’s not hard to find. The cheat environment has changed because it’s no longer a bit of software you have to run from your device, it’s streamed into the game during play… these boys are cutting edge. It’s an “on demand” service you can subscribe\ unsubscribe from.Which consoles you can or cannot do this on I don’t know, but to download the cheat straight to RAM seems like a way to avoid any need for jailbreak control and leave no lasting finger print behind. Maybe NG is immune, but I think that still leaves a couple million other PSN users who can take advantage. Anyhoo, here is a screenshot-
I’ll go even further, I can be a conspiracy theorist, but I think EA is making extra revenue with those online subscription cheats. Those holes in the game code are there for a reason. Making even more money by selling cheats.
