EA Anticheat Does Not Work (A Callout To EA)

I understand that you’re unhappy with the level of public communication around anti-cheat. At the same time, I wouldn’t equate limited public communication with inaction.

Anti-cheat work is one of those areas where sharing less publicly does not necessarily mean less is being done behind the scenes, as there is always a balance between reassuring players and avoiding details that could be useful to those trying to exploit the game.

We’ve also shared that anti-cheat effectiveness is measured in several ways, including Match Infection Rate, which measures how often regular players encounter confirmed cheaters over time and helps assess whether enforcement actions are improving fair play. However, there will always be a difference between the total number of players we think could be cheating, and the amount we actually take enforcement against with high confidence. We take player disputes very seriously as we never want to impact a legitimate player’s ability to play one of our games.

I can refer you to the information that has already been shared publicly. You can also keep an eye on updates from the official channels for the title you play, or if you’d like, I can direct you to those as well.
