Low ranked cheaters have taken over this game! This is what happens when you sell your game for 5.00. It is unfortunate that this world has so many dysfunctional, mentally disturbed people who need to cheat and steal fair game play from others just so they can feel like they are something they are not! Winners! Winners practice hard and work for what the y achieve in life! Nothing fulfilling about instant gratification!

Just curious how are low levels cheating and stealing fair game play? The game isn’t balanced around player level.

I’ve seen lots of lvl150s be absolutely clueless rank means nothing other than play time and experience on the maps.

Just like @IGCalibre said. There are plenty of ppl starting over, heck I just started my 3rd account! But like @Imabaka70 said plenty of lvl150’s running around clueless. Level doesn’t really mean much nowadays, other than higher levels putting sometime in.

I think they mean these players are hacking. Selling the game for cheap means that if you get banned, it’s no problems to just buy a new copy and start hacking again. If it’s $60 every time you get banned, it probably stings a bit more, and dissuade some people from hacking.

I think this is how it works. I’m playing on PS4 we’re we don’t have this problem.

That’s exactly the reason I made the switch back to console years ago!

Get better at the game? I have a smurf account and on consoles it’s absolutely possible to do this by switching profiles. I’m I a cheater? No my experience allows me to dominate on the new account.

Just today, we had an enemy platoon that took about 2 times as much damage to kill compared to any other players. Both as infantry and tank. Sure, they could have been using medkits on each other, or repairing the tank, except that wasn’t actually the situation. AT mine + light grenade is in every normal situation enough take a heavy tank down to about 10% health, enough to finish it off with another AT grenade. But oh no. This platoons tank took that same combo several times, but only ever got damaged down to 50% by the combo.

Infantry exactly the same way, and it was only those 2 platoon members that could take that amount of damage.

It’s a subtle cheat, since it doesn’t give people ultra-aim or 100% awareness from wallradar or anything, but it sure helps them survive more compared to all other players.

How do you dominate on this new account any more than you dominated in the past?

This.

Unlike Bad Company 2 where one account can have multiple soldiers, BF3/BF4/BFH and BF1 do not offer that ability, So the only option is to make a new smurf account and rebuy the game and play as they have been on the main account.

Sadly this also makes other players suspicious and scream cheater when in reality the player already knows the maps and how to handle the weapon recoil.

@pimpledbutt86  
Don’t always assume that low rank players beating higher rank players are cheating, It’s pretty likely that they’re just playing on a brand new account.

</div>

The big question is why do you create a smurf account? In other games I can see how someone would want to skew balance by appearing weaker than they are but there is no balance in BF1 to begin with.

Maybe they’re already at max rank and want to work on a new account while they wait for V to launch

Why not? My main will be maxed out soon, and have already platinumed it. Also have most of the codex’s, most of the medals and dog tags. About the only thing I’m working on now is the “Service Star challenge”. My second accounts pretty far along as well. I enjoyed unlocking all the weapons and such. I’m not getting BFV when it comes out, that game has too many problems. If I do it won’t be till next year. Was going to get RDR2, but a $1200 unexpected garage visit will be making me wait a bit to get it. So I’ll be playing BF1 for awhile longer!

Nothing to do with selling the game cheap, the free trial is what most hacks use, going to get banned anyway so why get a permanent.  
Last aimbot i seen in chat pretty much confirmed this, said he had heaps of accounts so banning was pointless.

Play because you enjoy the game instead trying to look ”good” or unlock things all the time (that you already have archieved)..

I hardly play on my smurf account I just hop on it to see how my stats would look playing at the high level I am at now.

My recent stats on battle tracker reflect how I’m playing now which is at a 4-5 KDR overall while my account is stuck at 2.97 for example. It’s very obvious that a person in match would think I’m a hacker or a smurf.

Why do so many console players think Smurfs are cheating whens skill has nothing to do with rank? It’s not just here in BF, in Overwatch it’s the console crowd too always complaining about smurfs. I’m genuinely curious as to why it’s seen as such an issue on console and on PC we just don’t care.
