Cheaters on battlefield 2042
Great job updating the game but please make a better anticheat. You guys don't care about it because your numbers are up. Unacceptable. Fix it or I'm completely done. I been playing since bad company...
Laying down, behind a boulder. Got head shot.
Cheating will kill this game. It is getting far more frequent. The amount of suspect events have quadrupled since last season.
Do something other then sitting on your thumbs and moaning please
I played all most of the previous Battlefield titles and I think 2042 has some major gameplay decisions I would criticize. But EAC has improved the cheater problem significantly, mich more than I would have every expected.
In BF1 and 5, I saw so many rage hackers (I know, only a small amount of cheaters are rage hacking) and saw really suspect players... You could tell, many players used some type of cheat (it feels like many, but probably 5% or so).
But in BF2042, not even one rage hacker, not a single one. And beside that, not that much player, I would say, were cheating. Sure, the game feels a little bit strange (getting shot behind cover, people looking in one direction and shooting in another one, invisible player!), but that is not cheating, that are the bugs of the game.
I would not say, there are no cheaters... But it became so much better, than in previous titles, there is no comparison. And if you look into hacker forums, you see, that EAC is giving some people a hard time.
Thank you for this effort DICE.
As a skilled player and admin of BF servers for years,
I can say this is by far the most cheat-free BF. But it's not perfect.
I've encountered 3 people who are 100% cheating (other admins and top-tier players sentence them likewise)
They seem to go entirely unpunished.
There's 3 types of BF players:
-Clueless ones calling everyone a hacker, unable to conceive that their head extends above their camera.
-The general population who can't distinguish a hacker but comprehend that ping and weird stuff happens.
-The seemingly 1% who can actually discern a hacker......
Here's a scoreboard example.
For reference, I'm a 4-5KD player, and LIFEB on the enemy team has been a 10KDR gamer in prior titles, as one of the peak BF players (He's not a hacker).
This was a short match, usually I'd get 60-80 kills.

@0_KatsuiSo you can see and shoot through walls and other obstructions?
No, this just means that you can see enemies outlines through walls; you know where they are at all times if you're looking in their direction.
Like a red-outline around their character.
So, no surprise, they're always looking at you and shoot before you register they're even there (immediately)
