Creative Solutions to Address Cheating in FIFA 25 While Retaining Revenue

I am giving you some ideas to address cheating issue in FIFA 25, what do you think 😀 

1. Adaptive AI "Anti-Cheat Referee"
   Deploy machine learning to detect unnatural gameplay patterns (e.g., perfect shots every time). When cheating is suspected, subtly nerf the cheater’s advantages (e.g., slow their players, reduce shot accuracy) while buffing the victim’s team—framed as “momentum shifts” to avoid suspicion. Cheaters stay engaged but lose unfair advantages.
2. Elite "Clean Player" Subscription Tier
   Offer a premium, cheat-free competitive league with stricter anti-cheat protocols (e.g., hardware scans, replay audits). Charge extra for access, monetizing fairness. Include exclusive rewards (e.g., rare player cards) to incentivize upgrades.
3. Hardware Fingerprinting & Device Blacklists
   Partner with console/pc manufacturers to detect unauthorized devices (e.g., Cronus Zen). Block access to online modes if detected, but offer a “grace period” with warnings and upsell EA-approved peripherals (e.g., branded controllers).
4. Dynamic Script Nullification
   Introduce randomized in-game variables (e.g., slight ball trajectory changes, goalkeeper reflex buffs) that break cheat scripts. Market this as “realistic gameplay improvements” to avoid backlash.
5. Shadowban Cheater Pools
   Quietly funnel suspected cheaters into matches with each other. Let them keep playing (and paying) while protecting honest players. Sell them cosmetic items that only display in their “shadow realm” to retain monetization.
6. Community Vigilante Program
   Let players report suspicious behavior mid-match for EA review. Reward valid reports with FIFA Points or exclusive kits. Gamify anti-cheating efforts to turn the community into allies.
7. AI-Powered "Replay Analysis" Service
   Sell a premium add-on where players can submit replays for “Pro Analysis” (marketed as coaching). Use the data to crowdsource cheat detection while monetizing the service.
8. Cheat-Driven Dynamic Difficulty
   For suspected cheaters, secretly ramp up AI difficulty to extreme levels. Let them win but force grueling matches (e.g., 120-minute games, constant pressure). Frustrate cheaters into playing fairly while retaining engagement.
9. Legacy Mode Nostalgia Trap
   Launch a “Retro FIFA” mode with pared-down mechanics (no sliders, simpler controls) where cheats are ineffective. Sell it as DLC to isolate cheaters and nostalgia-seeking players into a paid silo.
10. Ethical Hacker Bounty Program
    Invite players to submit cheat tools for “beta testing” rewards (e.g., FIFA Points, early access). Use submissions to patch exploits, then publicly shame offenders via in-game messages (e.g., “98% of players reject cheats—be like them!”).

Monetization Safeguards

• Frame solutions as “player choice” (e.g., paid secure leagues, optional anti-cheat scans).
• Keep cheat-detection subtle to avoid driving cheaters to competitors.
• Profit from both sides: sell anti-cheat services to honest players and keep cheaters engaged in shadow modes where they still spend.

This balances fairness, retention, and revenue—turning the crisis into a monetizable feature.
