This game has an intrusive, but ineffective anti-cheat. Cronus, soft-aimbot, walls, etc. are in almost every match at this point. As the playerbase drops, it will get even worse. Why doesn't EA stop this? Is it because cheaters buy skins?
Community ManagerSorry to hear that you feel cheating has become so widespread.
As Carbonic shared, the team continues to work on this, and our anti-cheat teams are expanding.
If you encounter players you suspect are cheating, please don’t hesitate to report them so the team can review those cases. Thanks for playing.
Really? I report people I KNOW are cheating because of my years playing cod. And you guys always yell me they arent cheating. You drop new weapons into the game that claim to have the same amount of damage but can easily beat anyone. Dump a mag into someone and they turn around and 3 shot me. Or people using shotguns from 100+meters away and insta killing. People tossing frag grenades and they dont show up until they go off and the grenade insta kills. But when i throw a frag I get 20 damage. Okay ea. This is why your game is on my external hard drive now. Your anti cheat doesnt work. You made promises during launch that havent been done. You have tried to permanently ban me over text chat. Its2026 stop catering to the snowflakes of the world and look at the people who are actually playing. You tried to perma ban me for using the word "**bleep**" and "**bleep**" to describe the way my team was playing. Yet someone calls me a "**bleep**" or "**bleep**" and that's fine. People say nasty things in chat all the time and nothing happens. I report it and you guys tell me there was nothing wrong with what the player was doing.
Let me know when you are ready to actually Crack down on cheating and have fair gameplay and ill move bf6 back to my internal. If you cant do this and arent willing to do whats right then let me know in an email and ill get a refund for your game. Im very disappointed ea. You claimed to be better than activision and trey arch. But you are making the same mistakes. :/ i trusted you guys and pre ordered your game and have been loyal and playing since season 1. Ive put at least 147$ into your game for the pre-order and to buy season pass for season 2 and 3.
Hate to break it to you, but until EA hardware bans, the cheating will only continue. I just finished a match where at least 4 people on the other side were cheating (low player rank, laser accuracy, no thermal sights yet deleting anyone through smoke with the lowest powered SMG) and my personal favorite: private profiles so no one can see the absurdly inflated stats from hacking/using cronus. And all they do is laugh in the face of anyone that calls them out.
