Re: Hardware cheating on consoles need to be dealt with when BF2042 comes out

Your worried about no recoil on a platform that offers aimbot/wallhacks/ESP... Yeah I think you got it backwards there. BTW in BF with a mouse is like having no recoil vs a pad.

@GRiPSViGiL  You can outplay a £100 no recoil device how do you out play the above.

    @DeathRaven_1983  BF 4 had two anti-cheats and didn't stop them... You think EA is going to pour money into an inhouse Anti-cheat and keep it updated and ahead of the hackers coding lol. Sorry to say its a battle PC will lose over and over as its an open platform.

    @1Hairy-Gorilla Don't know whether it has been officially announced for the official game release, but a 3rd Party anti-cheat (Easy Anti-Cheat) was used for the technical pre-test.

    This is gonna sound a little crazy, but I have to wonder if anti-cheating development is stopped at the end of a game's business life cycle, which basically has the effect of getting people frustrated and ready to move on to the next version. I'm not saying this is the case, I am not singling any game out in particular, and I am not making any accusations of any kind. This is just something that popped into my head and made me go, "Hmmm...."

    @Lancelot_du_Lac  That's good not seen a cheat in Fortnite. As they use and own Easy Anti-cheat but then might be down to how Fortnite works with bloom hehe.

    @ChugKendall Don't know how 3rd Party anti-cheat is renumerated. Maybe the game designer signs up for a specific period, paying an up-front fee for regular updates. Makes sense that companies like EA will not commit to unending support for older games.

    @Lancelot_du_Lac Of course, "unending support" isn't a good business move. I'm talking about conveniently stopping support a few months before the next version comes out.
