As the topic says, it really is out of control! I've played on eight servers today and on four of them there were cheaters that had speedhack, aimbot etc with 80+ kills and 0-3 deaths, on three of the servers i left and went in to spectator and there was no doubt about it. There actually hasn't been a single day when i have played that i haven't encountered obvious cheaters (bought it in nov -22). I've played Battlefield since the release of 1942 and i have NEVER seen so many cheaters in a BF game, it's worse than what Counter Strike 1.6 was back in the day. So why the heck isn't EA doing anything about this? With this amount of cheating the game should be free to pay.

Hey Battlefield Fans, Thanks for sharing your feedback and experience with the community. If you come across someone who may be violating our Terms of Service and breaking our Fair Play rules, you will want to report them to the correct team. For more information on how to report a player, please see our EA Help guide: Report players for cheating, abuse, or harassment.

The cheating in BFV is out of control

I've been playing Battlefield since 1942 and have enjoyed them until now.

Battlefield V is so riddled with hackers/cheaters now that it is no longer enjoyable. I've been thinking of buying 2042 as I hear it is better than at launch but I'm not giving EA another penny until they prove to me they can control cheating better. Guess I'll look at other competitors games for the first time in 20 years. And yes, I will tell everyone I know who games (I'm a veteran and we don't like cheaters) to go elsewhere with me. I'm so tired of being hacked and reporting hackers. Worst I have ever seen in Battlefield by far.

Yeah idk whats going on but yesterday was a total mess atleast on the PC eu servers! One guy constantly killed the whole server.. everyone respawned by his command. it was the same guy all the time, probably 1000's of people have reported him, nothing happened he was doing it for hours.. i probably crossed paths with him like atleast 10 times. He was just speedhacking around headshotting everyone trough walls and whatnot. And when too many people called him out, guess what he did? He used some kill command... he even came in at 500-70 on conquest which we were clearly winning. at the end they won 0-17 (!) with his "honorable" help.. he had well over 400 kills in 5 mins it was just pathetic to watch! in 1000h of playing against the usual "cheater" with 200 ping who sure can be played out sometimes, this one had 30 ping. i haven't seen this hack a single time before. it felt like he had total control over the server he was on!
Edit: You can have a look at this video i found on youtube a min ago. it's not mine but very recent. Right in the beginning when he runs down the stairs the server kill happens. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dp77isCA2_0

Same here mate! It's a shame, i'm not giving them another dime! As said, i've played since 1942 as well, and when i think of it, i have only encountered around 6-8 obvious cheaters in total over all these years, were in BFV, i do it at a daily basis, it's like there's no anti-cheat software at all.

This is one of my FAV games , i have alot of time in, would like to put more in but the cheating has really REALLY gotten out of hand , does ANYONE at EA/Dice even care?????
