Wildcard... again

I'm completely serious – please limit this mode to at least level 50 or 100.

The number of low-level players, 5, 10, or 20, where they're clearly cheating, is unimaginably high (EU server).

You can't play this mode during off-peak hours. In the morning or at night, you're constantly playing with these people or a 3-stack of Preds.

It's insane that I see at least 5 such low-level cheaters every hour.

Will you do something about this?

    What, should I send you a video that EA will delete after a few minutes? I have over 70,000 kills, over 5,000 hours in this game and I know when someone is cheating... Stop treating us like idiots. The accounts I sent have already stopped playing (probably banned), but such accounts are created en masse. Just play in the hardest lobbies in the morning or at night and I won't have to prove anything to you.

  • I don't have issues in the morning or night. I only have 22k kills and a couple thousand hours. I can spot cheaters too. They do need to stop the cheaters. They don't care though cause it's free to play game and they are just money hungry. They could easily stop the cheaters. Just require MFA auth with a phone number. Limit people to one account. You do that and all of the sudden there are no cheaters. They won't do that though because that will mean less people playing the game and their numbers for participation won't look as good.

    You clearly don't play in the same lobbies as me (masters/preds legend card badges, and no, no s17) on pubs and wildcards, or you play on a different server.

    Such solutions have been proposed many times, but for some reason, they're always rejected.

    Probably, as many people have said, cheaters are people too, and there are quite a few of them, and they also spend money on the game. Fewer cheaters = fewer players = less money. Then streamers would also have difficulty posting content from new accounts titled "The Road from Bronze to Master" XD.

    I do, probably same lobbies. Same relative levels. Really doesn't matter. They don't care. That's the real message everyone needs to take away from convos like this. Technically, it's easy to prevent. They don't do it because of the reasons I mentioned.

    I play wildcard in the EU and it's fine.  I get the occsional game where I'm outclassed but I'm winning 15-20% of the games.  And I'm not a great player.  I think it's a mode that is mostly casuals.  But I'm on console.  If you are on PC maybe that's different.

    But again, show evidence of 3 stack preds.  I've seen none.
