@NOFXguy81In my nearly 500 hours I don't think I've seen an obvious cheater yet

Ive submitted a couple videos.   Things I have seen

1:  Shooting through the mountain.   Im on the downside of a hill.  He is at the bottom of the other side.   Head Shot through the hill

2:  Shooting through containers.  

3:  Running at a sprint in a direction (say east) and hip firing 1 head shot with a smg to the south.  

There are also many suspect things, but because I cannot validate it with video, I dont submit

I also face something i hate that i think is cheat related. In exposition i sometimes have to play with ugly dirt-like walls in all the best map's hotspots entry that totally block vision (like c and d spots). The wall even stops me for a second and cuts my sprint when i try charging to see what's on the other side. This looks way too tactical to be a bug, i'm convinced it's some kind of hack.

Remember everyone is not where you think they are.

1: Shooting through mountain. He actually shot you from the top of the mountain and ran down, the kill cam just took a snapshot later when he was down the hill already. Thats why the kill cam is useless to tell what happens in game most times.

2: Shooting through containers. You were dead already before getting behind container it just took a moment to register on your end. Usually server lag.

3: Running at sprint. I have never seen this but could also be server lag.

There have been many posts on this already. Not everything you see is a cheat.

I agree, with the myriad of problems concerning hit-reg, lag, latency, time nudge, TTK, TTD, de-sync, inconsistency etc. etc. it's pretty hard to determine if anyone is cheating or something else entirely.

Until EA/Dice acknowledge and ultimately fix these issues FIRST then these sorts of posts are going to continuously pop up.

There are so many dodgy deaths these days it really has become the norm, DICE need to sort this issue asap. 

The main problem is that there are so many issues with this game.

I see so many bizarre things while playing you don't know if it is the game or the player.

Just left a crappy server because I put 25 shots into a players back from 30 feet away only for them to turn around and drop me like a bag of rocks.

When I checked the player they were in 45th place on their team with 4 kills and 7 deaths, hardly a "cheater".

It is not a well rounded balanced game in any fashion.

Honestly this is why I feel like it's on EA/DICE's end. The really need to fix the Networking code.

That is the only solution and hopefully it gets addressed soon.

Lol so much this. This sums up the game really well, when you can’t tell of someone is cheating because the game is so borked you can’t be sure. I’ve also been bailing on servers where all my shots are behind anything I shoot at. I wish I could gove you more XP 😉

 I feel that it is an influx of cheaters because I have been playing the game since launch and yeah it has been a problem but as soon as they made the game more playable and had those free weekends the number of suspicious activities increased. The in-game hacks could be some of the problems but everyone is not using those players all of the time. Also if you are being spotted the game prompts you about that. The number of times I  get gunned down by the same player no matter where I spawn is an indicator of someone using cheats. They are not even camping, they are speed-strafing and hitting all their shots. There are many times I sat there sniping and they are standing still. I shoot at them and they just start strafing and turn and beam me 200 meters away with a scar hitting every shot with a holo sight. You can blame the game optimization but that ain't what is happening. To add to that controller players have an advantage with the auto-aim by default but if you pair that with the Cronus they are hitting crazy shots.      

I haven't seen them until today, pretty sure I saw two of them whose I reported. Low levels having 50:2 score as infantry on big map which is insane.

I agree, I have been playing this game for so long, the response/ reflex of some players when they shoot is insane and cant be human, it takes them less than a fraction of second to aim and shoot you while they jump and move, it tells me they are using an aiming bot, it’s ridiculous. Some of the players are using weapons that dont even have high magnification scopes and can shoot me from very large distances while they are moving, to me it’s apparently they know my location on the map without even seeing me.

from my experience, players who play this game on consoles are more likely to killed first if facing a player on pc, something is not right there for sure.

my suggestion is remove cross play feature from the game permanently , if you play this game on a pc where most cheaters likely do then let them play with pc cheaters like them, I am sure they will not enjoy it.
