[Megathread] BFV and Cheating Discussion

The only thing EA is listening to is shareholders and money. So maybe DICE should integrate an ESP and an Aimbot by themselves into the game. EA then can advertise it and sell it in the BF5-Store for 9,99 up to 25 a month. Why leaving the business with 3rd party developers if they can use this as another option for generating income. So all players then will have the chance to even the odds. Win-Win. Ok… The downside will be that all players then will stay within the spawn zone to simply fire into the air to hit the enemies. But therefore EA/Dice don’t need to invest that much budget and development-time into map-design. Therefore they could use those ressources to create more skins and customizations for cash. EA, think about it and if you like my idea give me a 5% provision for helping you out to generate max possible revenue. PM me for my bank details.

As someone who started playing online in '99 with Quake 3 Arena and later Quake Live this here still blows my mind.
I mean the process to catch a cheater. You have to write down the server number, disconnect, look for the server number in an ocean of servernumbers, reconnect - I mean this can’t be real or?
Then we have to record a movie, which can easily reach some gigabytes and stresses the cpu. And then you have to upload this crap or cut it in your “homestudio” to accelerate the process of uploading.
Is this Comedey Central?

In Quake it was like this:
You can hop from player to spectator in a second.
There was a demo tool in the game and even autorecord - client and serverside. So both parties have the demo.

A match of lets say 30 Minutes is about a megabyte. You could rewatch it later within the game or external tools or capture to avi.

This was 1999.

cheating everywhere… this is BF now… and the next franchise… BFBC aka Battlefield Bad Cheater… right now the server inside apac region are cheater.. soon will the cheater fill all the 64 player… and the battle for No1 aimboter,wallhack,etc… is begun so BFBC confirm?

well i was doing research in the to the technology they use to hack and cheat …
it turns out fairfight does work(the cheat device i looked at got detected instantly and banned me) and to boot did not even look like it did not even work

so take heeed fairfight does exist and to a extent does work

dont be a zeroexdeadbeef

If anyone is reading this still…
I reported a Cheat with the github code about 8 months ago at least over @EAGaming Discord.
So with source code and all you still couldn’t find a way to ban them.

The cheat was updated 14 days ago, in line with update 5.0.
Sooooo may the gods be with you and the AC currently in development for Frostbyte 2022.

Ran into a hacker tonight that said he bought 100 accounts for 10 cents each lol

I do not understand why the hell there is no vote kick option. Last week I quit playing BF v. As there is a cheater in every single server.I left go to another and there is a cheater I left and go to another server and there is a cheater. What the hell is going on

didn’t see any official response on this topic, what is going on? although it’s raised form a moderator, no any response after that… or it just…

Pretty hypocritical coming from a guy formerly known as bran0001.

That is the real slap in the face right there. It is so obvious to the other players playing and the stats on the cheater’s tracker page are so obvious, yet the cheaters just keep on ruining the game for legit players. Absolutely pathetic.

thanks dice: every day the system works better and better

You mean from the cheaters point of view ???

Because a votekick will most likely hit legit players. If you play with experienced players in a solid squad you can easiely go 60-0 in a game. with a votekick thats 100% of the times a kick coming your way. votekick is an option that will be abused. If you have played CS:GO you know that the natural response of teh cheaters is to use a namechanger so noone knows what the name actally is. votekick does not work against cheaters.

Did they ban anyone in this game yet? I keep checking back to see if there is ANY evidence that ANYONE has been banned. I still haven’t seen any evidence of it. Where’s all the crying “I got banned, but didn’t do anything wrong” posts? There should be some on Reddit? We should see some here before the mods get to them, right? I have NEVER seen a single thread like this. Even the new Call of Duty game already has threads like this. Check the Steam VAC forums, there are massive amounts of these threads. THAT is evidence that a company is actually banning cheaters. You NEVER see that with this game.

This is the main reason I switched from PC to PS4.

This, and the cost of constantly updating hardware (SSD, video cards, adding more/faster memory/etc.).

Downside is that controllers have a steep learning curve. This will be fixed with next gen consoles which will allow k&m.

I see a significant shift from PC to console when this happens.

And before everyone starts to lose their minds about k&m for consoles, there are plenty of threads on this topic already.

Just saying…

Just ran into the same cheater i and many on the server reported…almost a MONTH ago. Clearly this isnt an issue to these devs so why bother

There’s so much more to PC gaming then just mouse and keyboards. Let’s just start with 144-240 Hz and obviously better graphics. If anything, I would just stop buying EA games before I turn to a console.

You weren’t supposed to tell :cry:

welp at least my reflexes will get quicker playing against aimbots lmao
