I've been checking the Reddit too and the hacker problem is awful right now since we got a flood of new players from the game going up on Steam. It's been a problem since pretty much launch, but it's gotten much, much worse since the Steam release and it's driving people away just as we get a bunch of new folks. Something must be done about this situation. Getting an instant pop on ops last night for a specific one due to a quest last night was nice to see, and seeing Zack Scott getting full lobbies for modes other than TT was fantastic, but these hackers have got to go.

Exactly. It's saddening to see this since it really feels like EA just doesn't care right now. BFN has anticheat so why not GW2?

@Iron_Guard8 Strange. Since the Steam release I haven't encountered any cheating or hacking in TT and I've played many games at different times on different servers. I"ve seen two instances in OPs where players were playing characters from the opposite side but it was almost benign. I must be lucky because I can't believe EA actually addressed the issue after ignoring us and it for so many years.
- 3 years ago@lookinin I have just downloaded the game (with steam) and I think that for the most part online is pretty good now there were a couple people using the damage cheat. Which is very frustrating because I save imp's 2 for however long it takes only to get one shot by a mob cob with bad aim and damage cheats. I honestly don't mind the people playing as bosses because they tend to more mess around and less ruin the game. Being a troll is one thing, but when it starts ruining the game it stops being funny.

@Badfish14 Yes, it's been OK lately. Whether through lack of interest on the part of the hackers or EA actually doing something is unkown at this point.
If you want to see a couple of the outrageous hacks I've encountered take a look at these:

The stopped clock really makes me crazy.
