Forum Discussion
So 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?

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.

It may take time but accounts reported will be studied.
I hope this helps answer your question or at the very least let you know others have had this same issue and EA is trying to work on a solution.

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.

Thanks Real_Noobalishus. I have reported them, along with the other players...mostly so I can feel like I tried. EA said they were working on a solution back in the days of BF2. Clearly not their focus but this new craze is going to hurt their bottom line. From what I've read EA can't sell the game in China, China has no multi-player servers there - yet they are clearly pirating the software and using hacks to inundate US servers. I'm sure everyone being stuck indoors due to he CoronaVirus doesn't help any but unless EA blocks China, perhaps high-pings, and spots suspicious activity a lot faster for homegrown hackers they won't need to worry about a BF6. This will end it, it's not enjoyable/playable in its current state. Hopefully this and other feedback will trickle up to EA, and hopefully they actually listen.
