> [@kid\_n4pper](#): > > it’s truly a shame and a let down that the devs are turning a blind eye to this issue. I couldn’t agree more. I’ve seen more blatant aimbotting in this game than all other games I’ve played in my life combined… tenfold! And I’m talking about lewis gun instant head shots across the map aimbotting, not skilled players. DICE better step it up for the next BF game, but I’m sure because of this fiasco, their sales numbers will suffer. ---

Honestly mate, none of us should even support any of their games in the future, with BF V they have shown their total disregard for the issues going on in the game so why should anyone support a company that took our money and allow players with aimbots/wallhacks to dominate servers at our expense. They are more concerned about us naming and shaming them rather than actually looking into it and banning them. ---

Well, this cheating was always an issue. But never when an Anti-cheat didnt work anymore like now in BF5. Punkbuster in backdays did good work, until it fased out. Fairfight was introduced short after that in BF4. Fairfight did a pretty good job in BF1 also. In my whole time in played BF1 i saw like 6 cheaters in total of 1.5 year playing. And ye BF5, well, its not working at all. And it seems nobody at DICE want to take a lead in this. Only when it gonna hurt their money pocket, then changes will come. We all know what to do with the next title if you want to have changes. Maybe somebody from the Youtube community need to talk with DICE, like Jackfrags to get changes done. ---

Pretty sad that modern warfare is super clean compared to this garbage. There are still some hacks but very rare compared to this mismanaged abomination. Seriously, one of the most popular shooter franchises has THE WORST ANTICHEAT OF ANY GAME ON PC!!! They should be ashamed, I know they don’t even read this but they should. It’s embarrassing, straight up. ---

EA/Dice have had plenty of time but have done nothing,so at this stage its quite obvious they arn’t going to do anything.IMO if you buy or preorder bf6 your a bloody idiot. ---

We all pay that game and you got a lot of money so why we need to take our time to report cheater when you claim have anti-cheat ? With all those million you have, dont tell me you cant put 15 guys on server to clean cheaters ? If you have guys on server and see a guys have 110 kill when all other players have 5 kills its easy to ban but its seam you dont make enough money on us also asking us to do ur job by reporting those cheater WTF. ---

I really hope people who have a brain wont give money for a game anymore to this company. I also think they are those who make and sell cheat for there games, what a good market ! ---

Maybe they do ban players, but don’t take a real proactive stance against cheaters, because the cheaters are a source of additional income for EA with new game purchases. On the other hand, some cheaters are probably using hacked accounts as well. We all know that EA could step up and take control of this issue, but my guess is that it isn’t a priority for them. When their pocket book takes a hit. Maybe then, they will do something, but as I mentioned.. They ban a few here and there and they still will get new game sales… ---

If they would implement a good working ac right now the playerbase will be decimated. I’m under the impression that there are a lot of subtile cheaters trying to stay under the radar. But then again could be me getting paranoid. ---

So get this guys.. as the mods on here keep saying to go through the in game reporting option (which doesn’t do anything at all) or use the EA support website, I had around 4 tickets open on the support website **all with video evidence of the hacker.** All 4 of my cases have been marked as duplicate cases and closed. EA/DICE you’re ridiculous, you are scamming honest players. ---

Another day another couple cheaters. One of them was so blatant that everyone was reporting him. He was using an aimbot and wallhacks that were getting him kills through walls. Where’s the anticheat DICE!? This is not showing the “investing highly in anticheat” that was talked about pre-launch! BF1 did a 10,000% better job of anticheat than BF5. BF will die with the next game if this problem isn’t seriously addressed and you know it! ---

The Cheaters are starting to invade EU servers. It’s horrible lately and only gonna get worse, DICE ignores the cheaters because a player is a player for them (they need all the players they can use so they allow cheaters I guess). And now they are shutting down more servers meaning more people will play on EU meaning more cheaters. DICE FIX YOUR ANTI-CHEAT PLEASE.
