Newest EA anti cheat Javelin causing more headache than EAC EA Anti Cheat

Previously with EAC EA Anti cheat, you could just manually update, allowing Windows Defender to exclude file checking and turning Power Plan to Balanced, in-game problem usually gone or kept at minimum. 

Now with their latest toy, Battlefield V is almost unplayable, constantly crashing every minute, causing micro stutter and spawning bugs. Oh and not to mention breaking any other device driver. I wonder if this is their way of turning people away from the old games as new installment launch is imminent.

There's old adage, A chain is only as strong as its weakest link, and There is no such thing as perfect security, only varying levels of insecurity.  To sum it up, making anti cheat more hostile is only driving your fan base away, fast response and tough firm decision to ban all cheater are still best way.

  • Agree 100%, I cannot play BFV or BF1 because it says that I need to uninstall Daemon Tools, a software that is not related to the game or any kind of cheat.

    Having same issue with EA WRC since they added javelin anticheat.

    As of 6/10/25 EA WRC continues to crash during stages, single player, never used multiplayer, will be driving a stage and suddenly crashes to desktop and MOZA WHEELBASE LOCKS/DISCONNECTS. NOT RECIEVING ANY ERROR MESSAGE FOR CTD(CRASH TO DESKTOP). In investigating using task manager if I END TASK ON EA JAVELIN ANTICHEAT it duplicates what has been HAPPENING during gameplay and exits to desktop, NO ERROR CODE. Have uninstalled EA APP, EA WRC, AND ALL FILES RELATING and reinstalled with no benefit. STILL CRASHING. 99.9 % SURE ISSUE IS EA JAVELIN ANTICHEAT THAT WAS RECENTLY ADDED IN UPDATE.

    Yeah. I feel that, EA made a new toy and forcing everyone down to their throat. 

    After 2 month still no fix for this abomination, Steam review already got bombed, knowing EA, they will not doubling down.

  • As  of today, 9 July 2025, EA updated Javelin to version 1.0.9543 or so.

    They've made progress, the game now just crash every 10 minutes.
