Community Concerns About Anti-Cheat Effectiveness

The updates only made cheating hardware devices deadlier as they do everything for you including abusing tapfire automatically.  Also, come on DICE, recoil is how you balance full auto IRL and in game.  Not some random "deviation".  If you want old school BF, go BF2 and earlier, not BF3/BF4.  All of the updates benefit cheat device users 10x more than anyone aiming on their own.  You have to wonder if that's the point.......  

Now that accurate burst/tap fire is more important, DICE needs to say and do more about hardware cheats (Cronus/Xim/Titan) on Console. I feel that all the attention has been on PC cheats. Please prove me wrong.

But that one round tonight was just unplayable. I couldn't hit a thing, and I was getting deleted instantly in a flash. There was zero reaction time; it felt like receiving 5 bullets all at the exact same time

That has nothing to do with cheating, that’s a netcode issue. As someone based in the ME and having to play on EU servers, I see that a lot, and the issue has been often reported on the netcode threads. I usually describe it as being one-shot by every weapon out there, even the sound is somewhat wrong, as if several hits got compressed into one long bang. When it happens 3-4 times at the beginning of a match, I know I’m in for a bad time and just leave and find another one. 

free week bro

So I played a few rounds after today's update. A couple of them were decent, but one in particular was an absolute nightmare. For context, I’m a slightly above-average player with a K/D usually sitting between 1.0 and 2.0.

But that one round tonight was just unplayable. I couldn't hit a thing, and I was getting deleted instantly in a flash. There was zero reaction time; it felt like receiving 5 bullets all at the exact same time.

I ended up with a miserable 2/15 K/D. I’ve had bad rounds before, but never this horrible. And it wasn't just me; more than 50% of my team went heavily negative. One guy even finished with 0 kills and 32 deaths, and another player around my skill level ended at 3/19. Are you kidding me?

Like every game update the cheaters are back in force.  Why no javelin update?  This would be a good time to ban a few thousand cheaters.  

you must really love this game, every time i see you reply to a topic its always trying to brush off everyone else's comment. in your eyes there is really nothing wrong with this game..........like theres no way people cheat, and its not issues with the game but its really everyone elses lack of skill lol

We lack a global anticheat law in which people can get tickets for cheating in games like these because there is competitions and tournaments with financial gains in game like these.
But yeah the sad part is the people that make cheats and those that is using them are winning the battle.

Still losing 90% of it's playerbase on steam is a clear indicator that something is not working,it has nothing to do with trend but generally that people are fed up by the slow respond from DICE/EA in trying to make the game worth playing,properly because they are already focusing on BF 7.

Losing 90% of its community is a lot for a game that is not even a year old and it is not people that quit to return, no it is people that never returns.

No, I'm genuinely asking, have you all never looked at trends before? Did you know this happens for every multiplayer game that releases? Are you aware this trend has existed for years now? Only very few games in the past 10 years or so keep a very high player base, and they still inevitably lose them, stuff like Fortnite, League of Legends, etc.

Are you also aware that Steam is not the only place to play Bf6? 50k on Steam is not the whole player base, it's not even the entire PC player base.
