Re: HACKERS are killing this wonderful game.

This to do their job, I do not like.

Because I have to pass a bad moment and wasting time reporting.

And I never really found out if that player is banned.

There really isn't much that EA or any other game company can do about cheaters/hackers. They can, with stuff like Fairfight, usually catch the most obvious stuff, like the insta-kill and aimbot folks, but there will always be cheaters in every single online game. There are a lot of people out there that use cheats but act like they're not so they aren't as obvious. That's just the reality of this kind of thing.

Reporting does help, so do that when you can, but this kind of stuff is just an endless cat and mouse game between developers and hackers, and has been for a very long time.

It's the reason why I've preferred to do most of my competitive online gaming on console now. The closed systems that consoles run on make them very hard to reverse engineer, which means very few cheaters.

Fairfight doesn't seem to be doing its job then, especially if instant kill people can stay in the whole session...

More importantly, does reporting actually do anything ?  I've come across a serial hacker (level 233 which I've mentioned before), and he/she/it is still playing...

EA and Popcap could do a lot about hackers if they wanted to but it seems most publishers don't really care as long as the hacker has paid for the game.

SOE shut down hackers as soon as they are detected as they have a zero tolerance policy. Planetside 2 is pretty much hacker free on PC.

Oh well it's their game they are flushing down the toilet due to the hackers and their lack of caring about them 🙂
