Has anyone else noticed a rise in hackers?Over the past few days i have been noticing a few more hackers in the game.Mostly aimbots as their kills are hugeAs soon as they become a huge problem this game is going to die off fast, crossplay players will just block pc playersESP is going to be a problem to notice due to paiks wallhackOn 3 or 4 games the past few days ive noticed players with huge kills,Players on server have less than 10 kills but hackers have 30-40 within a few minutes of the game startingThere are cheat sites offering hacks but not sure if they are active as a lot of them stopped supporting hacks when the game died off for a whileAre hackers actively being banned still?Also i have noticed sites are telling others how to Disable EAC ingame now so that wont help

yep there plenty of them am afraid And please don’t say” I haven’t seen any” because you only see the rage hackers and they are absolutely the minority!

@emerson1975 Exactly, no one cheats like that anymore.The consistency of the absurd shots people have landed on me makes me wonder at times. The networking feels off too though. Until that’s rock solid it’ll be hard to know for sure who’s hacking, unless they’re being very blatant.

Yup, i think cheats (aimbot/WH/ESP/Damagehack) has increased alot, itsvery notable on the new map (season 2), were cheaters are drawn to the tight inhouse closecombat maps (same as in BF4/BF3 Metro, and Op Locker) were no vehicles can interupt their goal... (K/D). The large amount of lowranks/newbies in the ranks of 10-70 (who dont even use Paik!) and often already have 2-3 "redplates" often dominates the field of battle.I think the coders couldnt sell their 2042 cheats (2042 is not that popular) and just let it go freely for everyone to download (anyone can check this fact, i dont wanna link).EAC which is BF 2042s defense dosent seems to work or is very slow to spot and eliminate obvious cheaters, why ? i dunno, EA/Dice dont provide us anything toshow community how many bans (or lack of bans) it provides. Does it even work at all? is it just a "placebo" protection? Maby im a bit conspirathoric, but this is my thoughts.

At least with the previous games. You could server hop. Here? You can't even do that. You'll always end up in the same games, with the same perpetrators.They clearly learned nothing from their Battlefront releases. Persistent servers and a browser should have been implemented months ago!This is just another example of how poorly they're handling this product. Nothing else.

@emerson1975Where did I write something about a K/D < 1 (I guess this is what you mean by negative?).I wrote that "K/D is a bad indicator to detect cheaters -- if taken on its own".Of course the K/D of cheaters is better than it would be if they were not cheating. But I have seem clear cheaters (wallhackers) in older titles that I have spectated and that were obviously cheating and still ended with an average K/D of 2 or 3. And I myself have rounds where I have a K/D of 10 (not many, but sometimes it happens) and I am not cheating (not even with the official Paik cheats).

@sirusvirus1 if they people was using aimbot or other hacks the ani-cheat system would pick it up straight away the only device's which are undectable are the Cronus zen and the new modded controller they are both undectable from any ani-cheat system on any game but saying that most people who play now days use the Cronus zen or a modded controller as look at all these YouTubers getting no recoil because they are using a Cronus zen or a modded controller so it's just a thing which most players use now days as they are undectable

@sirusvirus1 I have noticed being killed with one shot from across the map along with knowing where you are when killing you. I was in a corner in a corridor on the new map, the guy ran in and immediately killed me, he knew where I was. Others would have run down the corridor without checking. This happened several times in the same game.

I'm in europe and on pc, i havent seen lots but 3 or 4 in the past few days seems like someone is actively selling cheats again
Its not a huge problem just now but it may be soon which as i said will ruin the game completely
before any game is made there should be more done to combat hackers as EAC is no use now
Cod has changed the way it bans by using the kdr for lobbys
@JRVoltsyou may not have read my post completely but i did mention you can disable the anti cheat ingame and still play
I wish the anti cheat was that good that it would catch every hacker but that will never happen, there will always be hacks in game
Also there are HWID spoofers so even though you get caught the hw ban will not apply to your pc

Seen a few too...
Also had the "pleasure" of encountering -SAGA- players, obvious hackers.
2 players with this tag, nr. 1 and 2 on the score board miles ahead from anyone else. And this was on Stranded Breakthrough so it wasn't a stealth heli streak

I believe Easy Anti-cheat helps protect the game code from software injection, but all the cheat reports we fill out are sent to EA personnel for review, not Easy Anti-cheat personnel.
