We have had the same issue. Made it to top 10 and fought 3 straight wars with hackers. Good news: EA recently deleted the #1 worldwide team for cheating (they were our first hack experience). We have been able to win 1 of the other 2, but have reported every player we see utilizing that cheat. 12 magnetism attacks in first 2 hours of war just doesn’t add up.
Great to hear EA addressed the cheating issue with one team (I saw the posts) - thanks for sharing. Wouldn’t it make a huge difference in perception if EA would make a formal announcement in the forum of what happened without using names? Best of luck to you and your team.

Indeed it would. This is a fantastic suggestion. It would be greatly appreciated if EA would routinely post news of a variety of actions they have taken. And more information about game mechanics would also be appreciated, instead of just introducing new elements with the most minimal of instruction and letting the gaming community figure out all the finer details (such as how scoring works).

Cheating g still goes on, we haven't even made the top 100 yet and we are fighting cheaters Almost every game, they all attack with endless magnetism, reporting them seems to have zero noticeable effect. It hardly seems worth the effort any more.

I understand your frustration and hope it gets resolved soon. I’ve heard 4th hand information that EA has made headway on the replication issue, it’s really sad they won’t share some insight on how their campaign is coming. It isn’t like anyone that has played this game for 30 days doesn’t already know what’s going on...it’s real easy to use vague privacy laws as a reason not to share, but from a commercial and PR perspective it’s not beneficial.
