I haven't bothered to know for sure how hackers hack games but I have programmed in languages that can take advantage of on screen colors, mouse movement ect.
My question to you is why cant EA create their own bot that goes in to spectator mode and see what everyone sees when they spectate a hacker and use tools hackers use but the to detect them instead of using them to cheat.
For eg: Cycle through each player for x amount of time and if in play on map. If true then temp ban x amount of times, then perm ban with ability to respond to the ban to get unbanned.
1. Are they invisible. That can be determined by looking at x.y from gun (gun is not invisible)
2. anything else that can be used to determine color, mouse movement accuracy between kills or whatever someone smarter than me can think of.

There is no name in the following pictures and have reported this player already according the process.
Just wanted to add them in this discussion as I think it's valuable proof of whats going on, So EA and Dice can understand in a better way.
Personally I gave up already... Report when it is so obvious, otherwise just gave up...
Enjoy the pictures.
Hello? Who are you?
Note the bullet and also keep in mind the time to just make printscreens.... (Alt F1 method)
Guess it's a zombie..
Took some resupply and different corner- Note the reload
1 shot done again.. Hello buddy? You are bullet proof? .45 gun, no damage taken
Nice shoes.. Let me build a wall for you..... We need to keep zombies away
Dropped an incendiary grenade .. then he noticed me and killed me with 2 shots.
I know who it was by getting killed. but as you can see nameless player .

I'm just getting so frustrated now. After playing 3 rounds tonight on BFV I had 2 cheaters EVERY round that I and most of the server could see, they were so blatant it was a crime.
Guys with 150+ pings top of the scoreboard SERIOUSLY ? On the last round I played I gave up as the cheaters were simply taunting everyone.
It's getting harder and the gaps between my logging on to play are longer each time. Anything there was good about this game gets trashed either because of the cheaters OR whatever DICE decides to change :/

G'day @Wolfhound223
While I understand your frustration, having a high ping doesn't mean anyone is cheating and those with a high ping also do have a disadvantage to having a delay in allowed reaction time.
For example, I'm from the Xbox Oceanic servers but due to low number of players after 8pm AWST, 9/10 have to leave and join American servers. Now there is no way I can play as infantry due to a 300+ ping but I can compensate the lag when in a dogfighter and usually go top of the board if not top 3 each and every round.
I'm reported all the time and get some of the most salt induced written messages/voicemail messages you can imagine. From "With that ping do you live in a mudhut" to "I hope your mother dies of stage 4 breast cancer".
I know it can be difficult to believe for some players but there are decent players in other servers around the world, that can compensate for lag in foreign servers. Had these players had the same low level ping you did, I imagine your reaction would be quite different.
