New Year, so many cheaters
A month ago I started listing down every cheater and started reporting them. Most of them have a 95% headshot rate making the game terrible and one-sided. I notice that they do disappear, or at least...
Forum Discussion
In my region Southeast Asia, I encounter cheaters every day.
In the past 30 days, I was able to list down at least 15 blatant cheaters (Over 95% headshot rate), and a lot of them already got over 10,000 kills, which means they get away with it for too long
I also got like 40 on my list who I think are much more careful on their cheats.
My complaint is that why are there so many blatant cheaters getting away with it, some even got over 20,000 kills with a 98% headshot rate. why can't they ban them earlier and not wait for players to report them?
Welcome to the wonderful world of playing on the Oceanic Server :D
Covers Asia, China, Australia, New Zealand and the little countries in-between.
Played a game last night two players same game (friends) bragged about using "brought" cheats reported them, played tonight and guess what they still playing.
Literally had a good run of getting people reported and then seeing them disappear, recently absolutely zippo happens.
If dice had "Community Champions" in the game in which they could escalate a review of an account that would be awesome :D
In a similar way I started taking screenshots of when I report someone.
For example:
One guy had a swastika in his player picture in-game, so I reported that. You can add a comment when you report people, so I always write directly why it is I’m reporting someone.
Another guy had GET REKT written in his player photo.
Yet another had an image of a soldier urinating, clearly meant to be urinating on you as the person killed you.
Looking back over the screenshots of my reports I noticed that I’ve actually reported the same people twice with some months in between.
This tells me the following:
Either DICE/EA has not bothered to see the reports at all, or the person got told to switch to a non-offensive player picture, which might have happened, but then the person just switched back to the offensive picture.
I have a feeling it’s the first scenario that is correct, i.e. nobody cares if you report someone for their player picture. It doesn’t matter if it’s a swastika or whatever - DICE/EA does not have as priority to check who’s being reported and act on it. Despite their fine words about safe gaming environment and so on.
I'd like to bring something else to this topic.
Since redacted is here, it's a map you can "learn" and "master" easily if you know the good spots etc...
You add the VHX to it and for myself, i have a "good score" a lots of time (generally 7-10 k/d on this map)
That bring me to the fact that EVERY game i've been called a cheater, getting really sick of it, a lot of new player but also old player.
Do the playerbase doenst know how to do a simple research on battlefieldtracker / gametools to see the stats of a potential "good" player.
I know i should not answer to them in chat, but i do because i can't imagine letting them in their 200% ignorance, i want them to know they are just maybe bad at the game that's it
Doens't anyone encounter the same behaviour since xmas / NYE ?

WOW. Those are some extreme examples to report people
Lot's of low level players just beaming everyone and not taking damage. That could be partially due to this abysmal hit reg we have, but on the other hand, are they able to manipulate that too somehow? It's been consistently low level players with roughly 30 hours in the game. I'm sorry, but you don't get that good that fast.
The other day some streamer was doing the same thing to me, but they had a higher rank with more time in the game. I'd anticipate where he'd peek from, and I would die before I would even see their character, even when I was complete anticipating them while head glitching.
I then checked out their stream, and everything looked legit, but still I don't know. You can use cheats while streaming and not have them show. I don't think this particular streamer was cheating, but clearly had the better connection for that round. That's the biggest issue I'm noticing. If there's a way to manipulate the network to your favor, that can be a huge advantage. It was a huge problem in Destiny 2, and ultimately why it became unplayable.
To be clear D2 is Peer to Peer, but there's this distinct feeling when people were using VPN's and inducing huge amounts of lag while also being the host somehow. You'd barely see them, and if you did, you were for sure dead already. They wouldn't take the correct amounts of damage, they'd move in weird jerky like movements.
I'm not too too tech savvy, but are all cheats detectable? It seems sometimes the automatic anti- cheat system detection doesn't pick up the cheater. But, then once there is a manual look into it does become detectable.
One of the best assets is to just report the person you suspect of cheating and it gets looked into.

@D-Man3847 you know why manual report doesn't work anymore ? Because lot's of clueless / noobs call for cheat all the time for nothing.
I get called a cheater (so reported aswell i guess) in maybe 75% of my games in redacted, i can't imagine the number of useless report are sent to EA / DICE
=> and NO i don't cheat or use anything but people are CLUELESS, as soon as they see a big score
Therefore i can't imagine how they can manually check every report, it's only ea anti cheat that ban i guess
Funny thing, as soon as i propose them to come to official 2042 discord so i stream for them they say "i don't care"
=> yes only clueless people that can't accept to have sometimes better player than them
