So, the other day while playing breakthrough on manifest on Hong Kong servers I found a cheater for the first time in BF2042. This cheater had wallhacks and aimbot. I actively tried to sneak up on hi...

Community ManagerHey @DanielRicciardo,
I've edited that post to remove the video link, as it does show both player names and the URL of a website. Please be aware of what's being shared to avoid accidentally driving more traffic to those sites, even if that wasn't the intention here.
If you encounter these types of individuals in your games, the best thing to do is what that YouTuber mentioned he'd already done and report them with these steps if you're unable to do so in-game. Thanks!
It boggles me why doesn't game perform small security change patch on a daily basis.
@EA_Mako Asia is not just the problem of cheating is very serious, Racial hatred and crimes from China in Asia are also very serious.
I want to report such a problem to you, would you like to discuss it with us?
I am speaking on behalf of i3D.net and Fragnet Networks AB, I know you may punish this, but we really need your help.
Because members of these criminal groups are enjoying the game in Battlefield 2042, But they also prevent Asian players from enjoying other games, such as Battlefield 4, Battlefield 3.Please help us!
- @EA_Mako Yeah, we don't want to know any names who are cheating so we can ban them?????? lmao OH no naming and shaming? but there just shaming your game and spitting all over it.

If you see a suspected cheater, please report them by using the appropriate tools. We can't take any action against such accounts on Answers HQ, so using the reporting options available gets those to the right teams.@EA_Mako Please trust me, we have tried many times to report on: https://help.ea.com
But these criminal group members from China have not been punished, On the contrary, we are harassed, bullied and attacked by fake messages on Facebook.
BF4's Asia servers have DDoS attacks every day or even every hour, My boss "Fragnet" is quite troubled by this.
Because each DDoS attack may cause a loss of 600 or 1200 US dollars.
This is not just affecting the game server software of Battlefield 4, This may also affect the operation of other game server software.
Because the Asia judicial environment is more complicated, This leads to no one who can really solve such criminal problems.
If you are from Japan, you should be very clear, I can also understand that this is not a problem we can solve.
So we need a higher level of dialogue, Regarding the behaviors of these criminal group members, can you provide confirmation of violations and necessary penalties?
If you can, please forward this request to EA staff who can help us.
Thank you!
@Huntnwabits The "no naming and shaming" rule is very common on many forums, for good reasons - it protects users against the false accusations (which are not uncommon) and also protects reporters, so they won't become a target just because they reported somebody. That's why it's better to use proper channels and ways for such reports. There is nothing wrong with that rule.
@EA_MakoYou do nothing about cheats so it's pointless to contact you.
You know that i know that!!
So why should we report it and do your work for you?
You sort it ea were paid monies for a game your problem to sort it.
Biggest and best step console only crossplay.
Why it's not being done is a mystery?
98% headshots from smg 100ft or more away to difficult for your cheap/worthless anti cheat(if you actually use one) to pick up?
This game is just broken trying to be cod and failed like the lastest actual cod game.

They were doing the invisible solider glitch on PS4, posted video as well referenced their YT channel where they bragged about it. It took about 2 months but they did get banned.
I think one reason why it takes so long is that people flood their email with hackusations, many that are not legit. Does take time to sort through all of them.
Key is if you have video proof and can share it, it makes it easier for them.
