New Year, so many cheaters

@BlackhawkEDOthat is also way easier to get proof of that - it is the chat logs. The cheating is most likely not so easy to tell if a person cheats or not. I do understand your frustration - though I will admit yes we have many cheaters here - but still think #1 problem is the delay of things - the fact that servers runs on cloud servers. The fact that there is no region control nor ping limits on servers. A high ping gives you advantage compared to a low pinger because of the way game servers work.
In this game there is dozens of ways to get you spotted. But report is all we can do. BF 2042 is no where near the problem we have in e.g. BF 5. I play BF 2042 a lot and if I suspect a cheater wrecking the game then I leave. But be carefull not to see cheaters all over - most likely the delay thing is the reason. If you have below 20 ms ping then most likely you will have problems and get punished on the server !

I mean, of course the servers are cloud servers, though. I hate player-hosted-matchmaking, where if the "host" leaves then the game freezes and everyone else has to wait for a new host to be appointed before the game restarts (if it doesn't break entirely). The servers should be running in a datacenter somewhere, whether they are ran by EA or by a 3rd party like in BF4 and previous games [which would be my preference].
