False positive bans
I just got a false positive banned from BF2042 this morning, while I was not even home... how is this even possible? I guess its rip my ultimate edition. I believe another user @Gryphonv got the sa...

@ElliotLHTypically I would agree, because 99% of the time the bans are perfectly fine and it's usually a underage child worried about getting his moms money back.
But the worrying thing is I notice a lot of these players seem to be old guard players and quite mature adults. For the most part I do not see anyone saying irrational things like children here.
This game is also out about 1 month now and for a FALSE bans topic to be 70 pages long? Usually when a company CHAMPIONS for the community and removes dirty cheats like us they make a big noise about it for PR. Yet everything is silent.
This is a legitimate issue, I would not go on and on if I felt in any way guilty. If I had a reason to lose $70 I would just have moved on by now.
But this is more of just complete injustice at this point.
Even if they gave me a fake reason like yes we think you used aim bot least I could laugh about it and carry on, but they refuse to say why they remove access I'm just supposed to know? Is EA my wife? lol
Yep, same here. I'm kinda "old", I've been playing Battlefield for almost 17 years, and I've had my account for 13 (!!) years. And still, I was banned for no apparent reason (link to my post below).
As I wrote it in my other thread:
Last night I got banned, during the time I wasn't even playing BF2042. Needless to say, I certainly was *NOT* cheating. For christ sake, I only played the game for like 12 hours or so. I got it like 3 days ago.
Furthermore I didn't use any exploits (not that I'm aware of), I wasn't playing on bot farming servers, heck, I barely even played Portal as I just wanted to try the 128-player modes first. I don't have Razer whatever keyboard or mouse with macros, I'm using just a regular old "feature-less" mouse and keyboard. I got the game through Steam, but besides that I barely had anything else running in the background. Certainly no "fishy" 3rd party apps.
I even told support that if I decided to cheat anyway, why would I do it on my proper account that's over a decade old, with tons of games in it?!?! Yet, the automated message was "we determined that we took the correct action". End of story. Goodbye.
Screw EA. I'm done.
