What do you think? Is Battlefield 6 going to be ruined same as for ie. Bf5 was and BF2042 is today? Are they going to let cheat -creators again ruin their platform one more time harvesting money ?

Hello Kugel_FIN,
Every game has cheaters, but the "hacking" issue in Battlefield V is mostly overblown by the community. I've played almost every Battlefield title, and Battlefield V is the only one where you can join a lobby and immediately see players accusing others of hacking just because they went 25:0. Of course there are hackers, but they make up only a tiny fraction of the player base, contrary to what many players claim.
I believe the new game, just like previous releases, will not have a real hacking problem.

Well, a number of factors come into play.
-The greater age of the game encourages more hacking.
-Sales of the game make the cost of being caught minimal. This could be seen with the recent $2 price of BF5, as an example.
-Some global regions have a lesser stigma attached when it comes to hacking. Unfortunately, I am in one such region. Consider yourself lucky you aren't.

There is so much angst about hackers because there are always hackers in the game. Have you ever visited a hacker website? You should. It is very enlightening.

That is simply your opinion, and as I mentioned above, hacking frequency is dependent on a number of factors.
Also, consider that blatant aimbot usage is rare, and the people hiring out the hacks explicitly state that overuse equates to detection. (If you like, I can find and post the quote, but without the link) They actively advocate against using it.
As I said in a previous post, the most popular hacks are those that have plausible deniability. Wall hacks are difficult to detect if used intelligently. I read many years ago that something called ESP was the go-to back then.
I believe the new game, just like previous releases, will not have a real hacking problem.
As you said, it is your belief. Many of us have different beliefs as a result of personal experiences.
Regardless, I will be buying BF6 and will enjoy the honeymoon period while the hackers are intimidated by the large cost of replacing their banned account. 😎
