[Megathread] BFV and Cheating Discussion

" bombs" isnt in reference to planes in his quote. Hes referencing insane rounds

Yeah I know, He clarified afterwards

Glad I did not purchase the game and only subscribed for the Basic access. Joined 3 days ago to play BFV and there were so many hackers in the servers. I cancelled my access right away lol.

Hey all,

We do understand encountering cheaters causes a negative impact on your gaming experience. We want to give you an opportunity to share your thoughts about cheating and what can be done to combat it. Any feedback you may have can be posted in this thread. When posting your comments, please remember:

  • Familiarize yourself with the forum rules & guidelines, here
  • Don’t name & shame other players
  • Be constructive

@pvtJohnTowle Transparently is an issue for sure. For the people who what to have a better scope or understanding of the how bad the cheating issue is, there is a simple formula to follow. Note, I am not calling anyone one a cheater on this list. per say; but it’s something notice. This method really only pertains to the more blatant players.

  • Go on to battlefield tracker and check out the Damage per min leader board. (using this as an example since this is what FF looks in to apparently)
  • Next, pay attention to the amount of rounds played, only focus on the lower numbers; anything below 300.
  • Now just select a few random players, and lets see if we can find some things in common. (you might find players that you may have played against)
  • First look at their kills and deaths. chances are the ratio is 10,000 kills for every 1,000 deaths.
  • Next thing is to check is their Lifetime playtime. It’s probably under a few days.
  • You will see a “weapons” tab click that. Which gun is it…probably a Lewis gun right.
  • Copy that user name and post it in to Youtube. Chances are a community member uploaded game play footage of them, pay attention of when the video was uploaded. Watch the video and see what you find.
  • Lastly if you go back on to the BF tracker and now select “Game reports”. You can see how recently they have played, how long they have been using their cheats and how many games they have ruined.

In conclusion. These new players coming in to the game are absolutely amazing and the Lewis gun is OP and needs a nerf.

Pretty upsetting right. This was just an example for the blatant players out there. Now Imagine the number of “Legit Hackers” out there?

I did the survey and I was not kind. I let them know how I felt about the cheating and how they are doing nothing.

lol i dont know if the moderator is stupid aswell

PLS BAN THEM ALL , FULL ACCOUNT BAN - this game is not playable any more. I got in every game cheaters with 82 to 0 KD . This is not possible by playing assault on this maps. That destroys Battlefield.

I was going to report this post for advertising cheats. But none of the reasons for reporting cover cheating. Why isn’t that website taken down yet anyway? It’s been around for years now. How can EA seriously claim to be on the side of the people who play its games when it allows that to exist?

That’s exactly why I posted it. Cheating is starting to be a big money business, dignified to the point where websites actively sell and proclaim their cheating technology as a great solution to ruin games. And the main problem is that fools that seek out cheats, actually buy this software that God-knows-what maybe carries malware and other malicious software on to their computers. Pure idiocy!

Why do I never see cheats in Fortnite, hardly ever see them in CSGO either (I’m not global mind you)? They aren’t prevalent in Apex legends in the US, or PUBG in the US. The only game where I consistently see rage hacking is battlefield. What is the problem here? Why not install Easy Anti-Cheat?

Nope nope nope not allowed.

In fact linking to cheat websites has earned you some time away.

The logic in complaining about cheating and then literally linking a cheat website in your complaint is astounding.

Let’s do this Dice , cheat implemented for everyone

so, is this possible on ps4? i’ve been seeing some strange sh

Wallhacking and aimbotting isn’t possible on PS4.

what about seeming to take no damage nor run out of ammo as assault ,lol

i dunno how a guy can take out 5 guys , i mean, one or two plugs from each should do him in, then steal one of our lvt tanks and go 35-1

i get in an lvt and 4 shots i’m dead

then you go to battlefield tracker and his nick is no where to be found

There are lots of simple explanations for everything you’ve mentioned. For example:

  1. Some people are good and know what they’re doing, or the player in question simply got lucky.

  2. APCR is a thing.

  3. Not everyone is on BFT.

not a seasoned forum vet so, what is bft and apcr

oh bf tracker? i thought it was automatic

what is apcr?

APCR are armour piercing rounds. Also people can choose not to share their stats with third-party sites from their game settings.

There is no realtime anti-cheat based on stats anymore. It can’t even detect a player going 1300+ kills in a single round. They are still playing today. Search reddit or youtube if you wanna see it. They brag about new records in chat.

Anyone who continues to buy EA/DICE games is just enabling them to not spend the real money and effort on functional anti-cheat.
