@srash0810 I for one don’t care who thinks I was cheating, I was unjustly banned I don’t cheat or hack ! There is something wrong with easy anti cheat!!! There is no hope kiss your money and entertainment goodbye
I bought this game on release and have played it for about 3 weeks when I dropped out the game. I instantly received an email from EA stating my BF2042 now had been permanently banned stating cheating.
I am 62 and have played EA games for many years including the whole Battlefield series and have never cheated in my life and do not condone cheating. EA refuse to provide me with any further details on the ban for me to investigate whether my account has been hacked or whether I have rogue software on my PC. Many forums suggest that the Easy Anti Cheat software used by BF2042 does not like the Corsair ICue software and the ASUS RGB software and will see it as cheating software. The EA customer service support is quite happy to ban my account and just leave it at that. I am not willing to do this for a £45 game that I have hardly played.
I would not recommend any EA game based on this shocking service to a once loyal customer
It has happened to me too- @knockoutuk Nothing to do with rgb software.
Are you using autohotkey or Logitech g hub?i use Logitech g hub
- @fidstang Most if not all of us are banned for no reason. Or at least nothing we know of. They won't tell us anything what so ever... so it all we can do is sit here a speculate on what it might have been.
I've never once used a macro and never once used any form of cheat. Have a farmed bots... sure... not like almost everyone has at one time or another. Have I used 3rd party software to fix a keybinding issue that's broke in the game... yes... is that why I was banned? No clue as they won't tell me.- @-NME-M0710NM4N Best not to feed the troll. The more you feed the more they stay
@fidstangYou caught me. I'll give it up now, righteous Champion of Truth. I will tell the whole story...
I woke up, eager to ruin peoples' day. I brushed the snack debris from the night prior out of my beard, and turned on the computer. Before launching the game, I rubbed my hands together and threw in a few fuefuefue's, then promptly flipped the turbo-bot switch on my tower. Upon launching the game, I was thrusted into - you guessed it - Kaleidoscope, and ran for the tallest tower of the lowest pits in Hell. Once there, I looked to the sky, then gazed back down at the battle below me; "Don't be sad... This is just how it works out sometimes," I said, just before I unloaded the full capacity of my PKP-BP onto the helpless below. This has all been a ruse, and it took you to break me. You've done well this day.- @SpookieSkeleton See... this is what happens when going into BF withdrawal
I woke up one day and jumped into BF with one thing on my mind... I'm going to get more than 2 or 3 kills this round! I did better than usual and had 8 kills... then I was banned for being too good. The End!
- @fidstang There were zero cheats or macros on my computer I got falsely accused of hacking the only thing running g hub, GeForce experience that’s it
I'm curious, how many of you were NOT running Geforce Experience IE you have an AMD card so there is no uncertainty. If we are going off the theory that something injected/modified/touched the games nono square, The only true common program I seem to see is Geforce Experience.
Personally I used it to see my in game FPS with ALT+R and performance metrics like power draw etc with alt+p as well as used it to record clips of the game.
Curious if anyone who has been false banned is running an AMD GPU. Since we still don't know what is going on here.
