Absolute Cheat Solutions
I'm 1000+ hours of playtime and i've come across too many cheaters over time. It is obvious how unsuccessful the "Easy Anti Cheat" system has been. There is no theoretical solution to cheating, no ma...

@l_mRGogo Yes I understand it can be a cheat but the majority that do it are legitimate. You are basically punishing those people. The sbmm already tries to kill premades by using the better players info. We dont need another thing doing it.
Let's skip the Boost cheating. The main problem is that cheaters constantly open new accounts and continue to cheat. The topic we are talking about is going to different topics.
During the space race, Americans spent thousands of dollars on a ballpoint pen that could write in space. At that time, the Russians used pencils. What I want to say is, use the systems you have instead of spending thousands of dollars on the systems you are trying to develop. What I said can be done easily and you can develop any technology you want at that time. While you spend months developing a new technology, players are dealing with cheaters.
- @l_mRGogo Payment verification may work, but I don't know if companies are allowed to request/require that information for making an account in every country where Apex is present.
Phone verification is another option that already exists at present, but again, requiring it something that would mean every player would need to install an app, and Apex would have to develop their own phone app. Otherwise, 2fA is only tied to simple PC programs that you can have a million of.@LaughingSharko I disagree with your first statement. It is already possible to shop with a credit card through the origin store.
As for the mobile app, you might be right. SMS can be easily faked. However, cheaters will not want to use this method if they connect to it in double-step verification.
- @l_mRGogo There's a difference in accepting credit card/payment solutions and requiring them to open an account.
Also, EA likely doesn't store any payment information from customers. If they did, they would be responsible for PCI DSS compliance. Companies can't just pass your credit card information between departments and employees as you seem to think. The billing department can block transactions, and they can ban your account for chargebacks, but I'm not sure they can tie a specific credit card number to your account. In other words, the same person could probably simply use the same credit card to open a new account as many times as needed, to say nothing of simply using a different credit card/debit card/PayPal account/savings account/supported payment method.
Unless you plan on EA requesting a SSN to play, lol.
