Cheating Parties
So tonight I encountered something for the first time. An entire little group of cheaters working together. One of them I've seen before, last year, actually. Player auto spawns into a helicopter and...

I wonder if cheaters are much more prevalent in certain regions.
I think I've only encountered 3 obvious cheaters since the release of BF2042, and two of those times were during the steam weekend a couple months ago.
I may have seen more but its so uncommon in the servers I've been playing that I can't think of other times.
Two of the cheaters I have seen are people spinning on top of hills with a LMG getting headshots in all directions against players hundreds of metres away.
I think the other was doing something funky in a nightbird.
Either way, these were really obvious cheaters and they were probably banned because I never saw them again after those games.
A lot of the time in the text chat when people claim their are cheaters on the enemy team, the enemy is skilled and the player making the claim is having a bad run.
@Ga-Knomboe_Boy I've long noticed suspicious play starts picking up the later at night it gets. Its not completely absent during the day, but its much more prevalent at night. My working hypothesis is because that is when certain timezones are waking up and logging in.
Really sucks when you come across cheaters - especially ones that cooperate with others. Like, I enjoy playing against bots from time to time for an easier experience, but I don't see how having scripts and stuff that do everything is at all enjoyable.
Unfortunately there isn't a whole lot we can do on these forums other than request you send as much video/screenshot proof as you can to one of the mods/devs/EA Game Advisors so they can review it@TTZ_Dipsy I feel ego is a big part of it. Trolling also seems to be an aspect of cheaters, especially if you have them on your team and you call them out. I've heard even some prominent Youtubers have been caught and banned for cheating in other titles before, and when you watch their gameplay in things like 2042, there is something questionable about how easy they seem to walk through any match they play. Like spotting people who really aren't even visible on their screen and taking them out with one or two shots. On that note, I've seen my fair share of suspicious players running TTV in their gamer tag, and I really do wonder if they're trying to fly under the radar with cheats just to gain more clout.
