Re: I was just banned in BF6

I'm making this post in case other people got hit by this too.

I have already filed a claim and no, I wasn't cheating.

Frankly I'm not even sure what could cause this. I know DS4Windows is blocked by anti cheat, but I always disable it before playing, it also wouldn't let me in the game with it running anyway. The only program that could even interact with the game that I can think of is Rivatuner for measuring FPS.

I've heard some people who got falsely suspended getting a response in a week, and others not getting anything after 2 weeks. Let's hope for the best.

I would hope that others didn't get hit by it, but I actually kinda hope more people did, because then there's a bigger chance they'll roll it back sooner.

    Unfortunately there's a large sum of us that are facing this. I submitted an appeal on the 13th and haven't heard anything

    Something installed on your device must have triggered the anti cheat, do you play CoD by any chance and would you have SBMMoff installed on your device, that's a big one. Well they should unban you, looking at your stats it's obvious you don't cheat.

    Same here. I am beyond frustrated. I will wait for a few days if my appeal will work, then I am refunding the game on Steam.

    Hopped on to check out the battlepass and played quick game of conquest then got off to wait for my group to get on to do redsec but got message about the ban.

    i took a break from the game for 4-5 days to play other games with my friends and returned today for the season update, i've had the same programs running in background such as MSi afterburner/G-hub/Streamdeck/GoXLR/Malwarebytes/Fan Control open pretty much since  release day and whenever I play, so unless something changed with today’s update, I’m confused as to why having n any of those programs running/open would trigger a ban after today's update and playing almost daily.

    False Positives from Kernal-Level-Anti-Cheat

    The new kernel-level anti-cheat system, Javelin, may flag legitimate software as a cheating tool. Some players have been banned for using common applications while playing, including:

    OBS (Streaming software)

    Performance monitoring tools, such as MSI Afterburner

    RGB Lighting control programs

    Drivers or hardware overlays, including logitech G-Hub

    Some players have reported being banned simply for being in a squad with a teammate who was caught cheating

     Abusing bugs and glitches is against the rules and can lead to a ban. This includes "stat padding," or intentionally manipulating game features to boost scores.

    welcome to the club bro. I've been watiting for these for more than 16 days. Appealed for six times, got automated response and with no heads up, they just close the case. What a game~. Been on a live chat 3times and all they say is appeal once again and wait for the TOS team to contact you. I've waited and guess what? They just closed the case :). LOL 
    Fed up by the action of the customer service and will never ever play EA nor DICE made games. God bless them.

    I just got unbanned, although in a weird way.

    I first got a reply to my case that they actually won't unban me and denied my case.

    But then I got a different email that they removed the ban, and I can play now.

    One issue I do have remaining is that I do not know what cause the ban, if someone just spam reported me or it was something on my PC triggering it. Hopefully it won't happen again.

    Don't use anything while playing it, no OBS, no overlays etc. A lot of stuff can trigger a ban

    This is insane ! Got a new power supply in the pc as my set up was crashing due to power . Computer works fine no issues .  I said now I can play with no issues . Windows updated , restarted pc . Optimized the game with nvidea app , launched the game via nvidea app. Game launched like always and got a ban due to game enhancement!!!!  I’m super frustrated .  The only thing I can think of is that I’ve tried 3 different controllers , Xbox elite controller, dual sense and dual sense edge . To see which one felt best . 
    Programs running in the background, nvdia app, malwarebytes , and proton VPN which I disconnect when gaming always . I’m not sure what else could be . I had never owned a Cronus , neither have money for it .  The reason why I decided to get  into battlefield 6 .  Call of duty is a joke . But now thinking this is a real joke ! I hope they can fix this issue. It’s very very disappointing.

    Also received a ban on Oct. 30, 2025 which im thinking is due to face it AC. Flagged as Game play enhancement. Shame I only got to play for Appeal is sitting at Waiting on Studio. So fingers crossed.

    Got banned today for the same reason, absolute cinema. I have a 9800x3d processor and I have heard that there is a problem with processors marked x3d. I hope I will be unbanned soon, I have filed an appeal.

    I was just banned yesterday for :Gameplay Enhancements". I have played 2042, Apex Legends since 2020 without and issue and suddenly got this. I have an appeal out. EA is on some BS right now.

    Here is a active petition for all the false ban if y'all want to sight it. Spread the word about all this with the petition
