I had a fairly lengthy back and forth with EA Support regarding a ban in 2042 after 2 weeks of not even playing the game.
In the end their 'reason' for the ban turned out to be that I was using something that had "the potential to use macros".
This was in the first few weeks of release, when people were even reporting that they were being banned for using RGB keyboards etc, due to the software allowing for customization of certain key functions, etc.
So according to their own people, I wasn't banned for cheating (duh!), I was banned because either my mouse (an MMO mouse with side buttons) or my keyboard (RGB software), were flagged by their system.
I suspect they still haven't properly tuned their AC to void false flags/bans.
It's why I still haven't bought the game, since I was afraid I'd have the same issue.
For anyone thinking that this doesn't happen, please go look it up.
Some Anti-cheats flag people just for using G Hub or iCue, for managing their peripherals.
