[Megathread] BFV and Cheating Discussion

What is this Fox news? I applaud your efforts and segmenting my previous post to distract from the topic at hand (cheating) for you to talk about the forums TOS for you to justify my ban from this forum. I get it, I called a dude out, message received. The reason why I am posting in a topic on cheating is to discuss cheating.

How about we keep this conversation focused on the question you decided not to address. What does the “report” function actually serve since it’s clearly not working? How can these cheater be brought to light and for something to be done about it? These cheaters have been doing what they for months with out being caught. These people use/pay for undetectable cheats because it bypasses Fairfight (anti-cheat teams tools).

If the report system doesn’t work. If we cannot call out cheater, if we cannot show video proof of what cheaters are doing then what can the community do for the anti cheat team to see what’s happening and who is doing it? Instead of being silent from fear of the ban hammer the community should be vocal to get some type of a response from a team member. Do we just have to resort to; not play the game I paid $115 for, not to buy these games in the future?

Alas when these attempts are made I am titled as “Bully” (per ToS). I am “bullying” a person who has a private account on Origin, person who isn’t registered on these forums. A person who we cannot even contact. I am bullying a guy who is ruining the game for others with cheats, who says racist and harassing remarks to others in-game chat. All these statements I just made are recorded but I cannot show anyone.

Dudes, I’m sorry I just went and a full blown rant lol. I guess I’m just a salty boi. I’ma just hit F in chat real quick for my old account.

sigh

You just did it again.

@JONxJITSUxTWO
And creating an alt to circumvent a suspension is only going to increase the suspension on your main.

don’t do it.

Here are 2 ideas how you could deal with cheaters.

  1. new class “Referee” - only spectator mode

via in game votes players can complain about cheating, if there are for example more than 6 complains about cheating, random gamers can join this game as referee
and have a look at the players and decide to ban players

  1. in game votes

players can complain about cheating - if there are more than 6 complains, a in game vote decide to kick a player.
if there are more than 3 kicks/day, player gets banned for 1 day, if ther are 5 bans, player gets perm banned.

What does the community think?

Greetings Benchmark

Ironically, it’s also why some of those who own consoles decide to get a PC - because they want to cheat.

All EA and Dice are concerned about is protecting the 20% of cheaters and scold the 80% that speak out. They have/will do nothing. Just look through this thread for proof. The only way this will be resolved is if we go elsewhere with our dollars.

Friendly reminder.

This is NOT the place to :

  • Submit video evidence of cheating
  • Submit screenshot evidence of cheating
  • Calling users out
  • Linking to stats pages or any other means of outing a suspected cheater

It amazes me that companies like EA stay in business. They really are the downside to American capitalism. EA is too big now, so they just pump out trash and steal money. This happens in pretty much every industry. The cheating problem just shows how arrogant EA is. They are basically saying they can sell you whatever trash they want and you will buy it and they will make a killing in the process.

I know the problem, GREED, since the beggining of this game it was projected for micro transactions, but, don’t blame de devs, i belive they do a great work, blame those executives at EA, money seens to be the only objective, not our FUN. I miss the time when games were made for enjoy people, now it’s junt a slot machine…

The issue is not using the tools in game to report hackers, the issue is players having to keep doing it year after year, every time a Battlefield game is release. This proves Origin/EA/Dice are ignoring the problem and leaving it up the players to either put up with hacking or stop playing and hit the Report button, even if we do so. Does anyone know if any players has been banned?, I suspect those who post about hackers are thrown under the bus long before those sharing ‘hacking links’ in game via chat. It’s clear to me, that the Battlefield games are a hack fest and the company has no intention whatsoever in fixing their game and allowing fair game play, as an anticheat would be in place by now. Remember hacking is years old within these games. [removed legal discussion]

i can tell u,if they are really wanting to ban cheaters that already in the game, up to 50/60% is cheating , however, ever only 1% players didn’t cheat, it’s still worth to ban cheaters all, as a good game always have fan and new players come to there, cheating players can give u money as they like to spend on VC as they enjoy the game much than normal players, but it is a company like EA make profits from that manner? is it a company 's prospective? who will join this company for career? that why competitive market is always good, bad company kick out, and a good company keep survive and make profit , EA should be the former in term of BFV

here is a link of official PUBG , talking about how they treat cheating issue, can we find the same video from EA on BFV?

I wonder if cheating tools have malware in them. Im sure it needs admin password. Hopefully steal their credit card or melt gpu.

Its amazing the money and dedication the cheaters have to keep cheating. Maybe its like a fetish thing, they need to cheat to get off.

The cheaters laugh their balls out of the pants because a millions company like EA can’t beat them
