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.
Unfortunately all we can do on this player community forum is give you the below link:
If you are in game and suspect another user of cheating then please report them using the steps in this help article: https://help.ea.com/en/help/faq/report-players-for-cheating-abuse-and-harassment/
You can find info here:

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.

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.
