Hey Soldier,
Another month, another beat on how the fight is going with regards to cheaters in Battlefield 6.
February: Results & Impact
Match Infection Rate: The percentage of matches across the title that were negatively impacted by at least one cheater. This includes all suspected cheaters, even those we might not have enough evidence to enforce against.
In February, MIR started at 3.72%. This continued to increase until it peaked at 5.01% on the 15th. At which point we had new detections and accelerations start to make headway and cause significant impacts to the cheater populations over the weeks to follow. This saw a floor of 2.30% on the 25th, before seeing some gradual increases again as cheat devs began their efforts in response to our work.
Through February, EA Javelin Anti-Cheat prevented 256,263 attempts to cheat or tamper with the game before they could impact matches. We are still tracking 226 cheat-related programs, hardware solutions, vendors, resellers, and their associated communities. Of those, now 217 of them (96.01%) are reporting related feature failures, detection notices, downtime, or fully taking their cheats offline.
We’ll continue reviewing your questions and feedback and will be sharing February’s metrics in roughly another month’s time.
Keep it fair out there - see you on the Battlefield.
