My rant on cheaters and some of the matchmaking design choices

I love this game. That's why I'm angry.
EA is not keeping the cheaters out of the game.

They're all over both conquest and redsec. Redsec is a great idea, and executes like a mix between Blackout and Warzone, which is good, but it's pointless because either you're fighting sweats or cheaters and there's very little in between. I don't feel I get a fun experience being the fodder for other players.

Just had a sniper kill my teammate with no sniper glint, then I was shot full auto from 3 miles away. Oh yeah sure they're def not cheating I bet. Every single death in Redsec feels terrible, unfair, and one sided. I can shoot enemies for full mags with hit markers and they turn around and merely looking at me does my full bar of health and kills me. Ok, cool game. Will be avoiding it. I also hate the 12m it takes to load into a game.

At least in conquest I can leave cheater lobbies and rejoin a new one quickly. Had one guy teleporting around F on that mountain map that was in the beta, shooting me through walls, always behind me somehow. Was really fun.

But it's not all bad. Just played a game earlier today in the BMR and went 39 and 5, was incredible. Thanks ally engis!

 

Battlefront SORELY needs a you vs ai mode, but make the AI actually challenging and not stupid. In Redsec they sit in the ATV and are super easy to kill. In Conquest they are better but they have no edge, dying just means you were overrun or out of position. Battlefront back in the day was great even only vs AI. I don't understand why you game companies REFUSE to let me play the game how I want. Challenging, difficult AI that make you actually try. You could design it like the Rimworld Storyteller.

Love the game, just super frustrated at the cheaters and some of the matchmaking design choices.

  • it is a mixed bag of little things!

    Well, for the cheater problem is more accurate to say "big" thing.

    Cheaters yes it is a problem as EA are not getting rid of them in time. Not sure why they are allowing them to play or it is just that the javelin system is an absolutely crap one, or a cover up, a marketing thing if you know what I mean.

    Netcode, that's the biggest problem of all. Don't look at your ping!!, you may have a 12ms ping, but the netcode is not favouring you.

    In other words. Independently of the ping, if you enjoy a good netcode, what it is, is that all the opponents in front of you appear to be brain dead. It means you can kill them with easy. Their reaction time is so bad that you find it incredibly easy killing them making you believe you are so good at it. The problem here is that those brain dead players,  are us!!! 

    We getting killed every time, from every angle, every where, thanks to a perfect choreography of cheaters and netcode working against us.

    A cheater killing a brain dead player, a way to describe this game.
