No naming and shaming? Seriously, what does it matter; these cheating dirtbags obviously have NO SHAME for what they do. For them, its about waving the largest E-peen that they can and get, what? So they can say they're better than everyone else? Online? I'd name every single one of them if I thought EA would give a tinker's damn and do something about them, but they could care less; they're paying customers, they're giving the company money, the execs and other other 'important people' in the company could care less if they're contributing to the eventual FAILURE of would could've been a great game. What do they care that the cheats, botters, aimhackers and whatnot are dragging Pop-Cap's beloved IP through the mud with every match? Matches are unplayable now, barely a week after PC launch; now every lobby has between three to five "i can one-shot you" cheats MINIMUM.
I love this game; I really do. I love multiplayer shooters in general. But if EA or someone from Popcap or whoever's in charge of monitoring the game doesn't get on the stick soon and do something about these cheaters I can promise you this game will not grow much, if at all, in the year(s) to come. You'll be cranking out content for a legion of empty servers. VALVE probably has some of the best anti-cheat protection in the industry; not once during the years of playing games like TF2 or HL2DM have I run into such a wave of blatant cheating. You can't tell me that it can't be done; someone in the chain of command either didn't think of it or just doesn't give a flip about it.
P.S. Game needs push-to-talk option. Seriously. Like freakin' YESTERDAY. G'damn.
P.P.S. if this post gets blocked/banned/erased, I'll just move on and repost it again and again until someone freakin' listens.
