The game is going to get hacked regardless of the anti-cheat used. If you want to play these games on PC, then accept the fact that cheaters will always be a problem. The small nimble groups who create the cheats can move much faster than behemoths like EA who take forever to counter the changes cheat providers make to circumvent EA's latest efforts.
lol not true...they just need to throw a little talent and $$$ at anti-cheat. Sounds like you might cheat or develop cheats? Now I always hear excuse like EA doesn't have the money to put towards AC. That is completely and utterly not true. I wonder how much the higher ups make per year as a salary and stock options etc.
Hmm lets see:
The estimated Net Worth of Andrew Wilson is at least $167 Million dollars as of 21 September 2021. Mr. Wilson owns over 10,000 units of Electronic Arts stock worth over $27,978,388 and over the last 9 years he sold EA stock worth over $118,103,666. In addition, he makes $21,365,800 as Chief Executive Officer and Director at Electronic Arts.
Over $100, 000, 000 in stock sold. LOL yup folks that's 8 zeros and makes OVER 20 million a year. But can afford to hire a talented anticheat team...lmfao
Oh I should elaborate on my comment around companies not wanting an effective AC. I am sure these large publishers are well aware that an actually effective AC kills a game because the culture is to cheat. I recently had this discussion with a 19 year old female aspiring streamer. She admitted she cheats and so does most of her friends. You could actually tell she thought I was "old" and basically "stupid" not to be. Its just the cool thing to do. There is a few titles out there that are prime examples of this..but only a handful mind, and by effective I'm being generous.

Yeah there 1xxxx ways to protect a game and detect cheaters better than the past or actual programs do.
Let me throw in some words:
SandboxingHardcoding
Game Engine integrated Anti Cheat
Matchmaking System
Overwatch System
Server sided checks
preventing of performance impacts ( latency check, ping check and kick, packetloss checks)
overall the good old brain system to create algorythm that compare noobs vs pro and pro vs pro and noob vs noob gameplay to detect abnormal behaviourm
general olgorythm with automatic ban for stuff like Battlefield 3/4 cheaters do 100 kills in 5 minutes to 1 death.
and so on .. my thread is gone where i explained
there are many ways .. but it seems none of the developers/programmers is willed to do (or want to use their brains ??)
I mean take a look onto bad jokes like FaceIT or ESL they called and named "professional" all whats pro in there is their unique way to fail.
Gimme a Team of programmers 1 year of time and let me lead them to success (oh but none of you have the eggs to do so or ? @ EA )

If they was really serious about cheaters they would of made it windows 11 only and use tpm rs keys to permanently ban cheaters.
I guarantee you they aren’t serious about cheaters it’s all lip service!
