Hey @TheGunSelena1,
Hmm, that sounds odd.
Is it maybe possible for you to record a video of this happening and DM me a link (YT maybe?) to that video with some details of what exactly is happening? I can then pass it on to the teams to take a look into it.
I would also recommend reporting any suspicious behaviour that you're seeing on the Battlefield: https://help.ea.com/help/faq/report-players-for-cheating-abuse-and-harassment/.

Yes, a reply was removed as it was violating the forum rules for naming and shaming. Please use the in game reporting features to report players you suspect are cheating or using exploits to servers.
Please read the forum rules here:

@EA_Blueberry @EA_QueenBee @EA_Atic @Straatford87 EA do something about this issue please!
Reporting the hacker won't change anything, I do NOT mean that he won't get banned or the reporting is useless. If his account get banned, he can easily create new account and continue crashing servers like he didn't get banned at all.
The hacker is still crashing operations servers till this day EVERY * NIGHT!!!! We can NOT find any active operations server, but we only see empty servers. This is getting out of control, it is LITERALLY so hard to farm operations battlepack nowadays.
Please please please fix what allows the hacker to crash servers in the first place, that way he will not be able to crash servers in the future.
(I'm sorry for the bad audio quality, I don't know what caused it to be this bad. I edited the video to make sure it follows AHQ rules & guidelines.)
In the game chat, the hacker said "FINAL FLASHHHHHH" indicating that he is going to crash the server and he actually did it, after the error message pops up, you can see that there were 4 operations servers. That means that he already started crashing operations servers and he is going to crash the last few remaining servers until there are no servers left.

What I think is the much bigger problem, that he can literally do anything with YOUR soldier, as I have experienced yesterday (he started my soldier to automatically spot enemies without me pressing "Q") - what else can he do with this severe security flaw? Delete my Account? Get ME banned for cheating? Read my credit card details?

yeah and it was me whose post you took down cos of naming n shaming , well what you gonna do about the hackers and the idiots that crash servers , 3 months this has been going on and by the looks of since last may as you was all messaged by somebody else to do with same problem , i can only surmise that you are trying to force players into buying battlefield 5 when some of us dont want to , EAs inaction on sorting the problem only raises suspicions that you no longer offer support for BF1 in terms of cheaters and banning their IPs , bf5 is garbage !!!

I mentioned his user names and was promptly given 24 h ban, today he was again servers crashing and I have screenshot where he is literally trying to sell his hack program to anyone who is interested and giving his discord name. Its absolutely disgusting now how he does this on every day basis. I wanted to give video proofs with screenshots if needed and no one wants to listen.
The person is taking away ability to play a game we fairly paid for. He is lauging in our faces, insulting us calling us different names when he is playing for few minutes using every hack imaginable from speed, invisibility, aimbot etc. But every single day he is online in late evening and he is crashing all servers in every region from EU, USA to Japan. Its very easy to see.
I can only play late evenings and that person is making it impossible. Its gotten to a point where his actions are criminal, he has free reign over playerbase, he has more power than EA itself now. I just cannot understand how can no one already help us. And yes we all regular players know his user names, we have reported him thru game and app over 1000 times most likely if not more, I get it game is not supported any more, but come on, this is getting rediculous now, ONE single person makes Operations servers unusable for 6-8 hours every day.
And I love bf1 cause of community, maps, gameplay, I dont want to be forced to play newest game, I will gladly support EA buying other games if they support us - players. As Battlefield goes, 1 is the best BF game to date for me. Modern warfare setting is just not my cup of tea.

Hey @lefiath-cz,
Public posts with links that contain stuff like this will indeed be removed because they are in violation of the AHQ forum rules, and the posters will be sent a message as to why their post(s) have been removed.
I specifically asked in the thread to send me a DM (Direct Message), no public post, with more information and a possible video(s) of what exactly is happening, to avoid this situation of having to remove posts.- 4 years ago
He is still crashing the servers, Every day.
I reported him several times, in EA Help with screenshots where he is saying in chat that he will "nuke" the server.
I guess he was banned sometimes, but as he said in game-chat, he then just buys a new account for some cents.
Tonight (15minutes ago) he even started to crash the conquest servers.

You have to wonder what is wrong with someone like that. I know we shouldn’t make light of those with mental illness, so you can only pity someone who does this and be thankful you’re not suffering with the same unfortunate affliction.

I have issues with Operations Servers crashing every day since 4-5 days ago, I remember the name of person who is doing it and I just leave the match and close the game cause I know whenever person is there Im wasting time. It happens from 1 am to 3 am in EU and USA East servers. He uses aimbot, speed hack every evening, crashes servers later. During day in EU ones is thankfully fine.
Just to update the situation - yesterday between 11 pm to 4 am ALL EU and USA Operations servers were force crashed by known person. I also couldnt find any Japan or Hong Kong/Australia server that had players, all were 0 players so its possible that person did that to other regions also. Because of force crash we didnt have a single server to play on cause it takes time for crashed ones to be used again. Person was also boasting in chat before crash what he is doing. This is becoming a serious issue and I hope EA can make some fix that at least server crashes dont happen.
Btw that person was boasting in chat also how he is developing his hack to be even better. He is doing it for many many months, we all reported him to no avail.
And can we as players get a refund on Squad boost XP? Because I see lot of people activating it (and they are timed) and when server crasher force disconnects a server we lose all that progress and Boost XP. Not to mention Operations pack are impossible to earn, we do first round on operations and all progress is gone when server crashes on second round. At least please fix that, that we dont lose a progress because of disconnet that its not our fault.
And today again, different user name same person, I dont get that person and why is DICE allowing this. We paid our money for this game and we get threated like this, by not being able to play the game the game at all and nothing is being done. We are all not allowed to play the game we love by one single person.
