DICE TeamSo I am from Singapore and been playing bf5 since beta (as well as bf 3 4 and 1).
BFV has got to be the worst case of hacking in battlefield history.
Game is awesome fun without any hackers. good gun play.
But every single game in SEA servers are filled with minimum 2. note 'minimum'
usually would consist of 4-6 in a game.
Hackers has even banded together to form hacking clans. I believe that says alot about what they think of EA's anti cheat.
On the constructive end. We like to understand more what exactly is being done to salvage the situation of these hackers. It has made playing bf5 a chore when dealing with hackers. Reporting hackers has become part of the game (reported countless times already).
The hacking situation is killing off the playerbase. Once hackers appear on enemy team. my team starts to quit, and becomes a feedback effect, losing the game in a landslide defeat, both by hackers and the disappointment from my team players.
The community feels neglected and disappointed by EA/DICE effort and lack of communication in the effort against these hackers.
Do clarify in detail what is being done or looking to be done in the near future.
Thank you.
Can we get a reply by an official dice/EA employee?
@EA_Atic u started a tread without any feedback. we all feel baited to even say anything here. EA doesnt care
First time I was so irritated by someone hacking (because it is such a regular occurrence) that I videoed it. Submitted it in the report text as well. I read your forum post about reporting via origin. Since there is no followup that something "happened" because of the report - I wanted to also post it here.

It sucks when you come across people ruining the game for others but I'm afraid you're gonna have to make some edits to your post as it's considered Naming and Shaming and will probably get deleted/edited in it's current state.
For at least the last 30 days I can barely find a non-cheating server. BF-any version has always been easy to hack based on the fact cheating continued to exist...but it was not as prevalent a year ago and I could simply switch servers. Not any more! I can't find a clean server. I'm not talking about the really good players...there are plenty. I'm not talking about the tanks or planes that have 50 kills & no deaths. I mean the blatant, obvious hackers! This appears to be mostly from China VPNing into Western servers based on names, squad voip language and 150+ pings. What's the deal?
- Are they using hacks to rank-up and grab gear, then resell the accounts full of weapons?
- Is it because everyone there hacks and no one can play without equivalent hacks?
I have never seen anything like this before. No one should even consider buying this game until EA/Dice can figure out how to get this under control.
Struggling to find servers with no cheaters in Oceania region. I understand its not easy to fix but at lest bring back vote to kick/ban in the meantime because right now its next to unplayable...
20:33 CEST - So many cheaters on servers that I started combined arms. Though that one is bugged. (could not fetch report https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/PATCH-5-2-UNABLE-TO-FETCH-YOUR-REPORT/m-p/8772366/highlight/false#M25213) .
Cheater reporting bugged: (https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/When-viewing-player-profile-in-game-opens-blank-window/td-p/8112191/jump-to/first-unread-message)
Sometimes just a sign to call it an even and turn off the pc.
As this is text: No I'm not emotional salty or angry. Just provide feedback that cheating is getting worse. Hoping on a statement, or change in the way dealt for.
When a player is just good perhaps give him an icon. Crown or something. This guy is good and no cheater, just as a sign for players.
