Star Wars battlefront hackers

I'm new to asking questions on these types of places but I'll try my best. About 5 days ago I was in a match and there were 2 players who had over 100 kills which is almost impossible to get, next match as soon as I spawn the 2 guys somehow got to our spawn point as soon as the match started and were 1 hitting everyone, I reported them and left the match, again that was 5 days ago. Now about 2 hours ago I saw the 2 of them in another match doing the same thing and I know half my team reported them, so I'm wondering what do the devs do about these types of people?

    Unfortunately, because DICE did the game and it  was done with the same Frostbyte engine as Battlefield 4, many of the same hacks that worked for Battlefield 4 worked for Battlefront with very little tweaking needed by the developers of said hacks. I've run into the same thing as you. Guys with 70+ to 1 kill counts that headshot everything as soon as it moved and that was before I quit in disgust.

    I also believe that much of the issues are coming from the battlefield 4 game as well. EA representatives say that they are using a system called FairFight bans (FFBANS.org) to eliminate hackers based on their scoring statistics, but I am very skeptical that it is working for this game since I have not ever seen the names of Battlefront hackers or Youtube posters on the list. There are sites out there that clearly explain how people can beat the FFbans systems pretty easily. If you Google it, you will get a big list of sites to come up, which apparently, EA developers do not seem to have the time to Google it themselves and see what they need to do. Or maybe they just don't care. Or some of their own employees are actually handing out the code to some of these people. We will never know since their seems to be a lot of secrets about the whole issue that the people paying for the game should not know.

    Either way, I have significantly cut down on playing the game since the servers are either empty or somebody is scoring over 150 kills on a regular basis. Wee...good fun for everybody else. I am working on a different game, from a different developer altogether with a better system of catching cheaters.

    It seems this game, along with most other PC games nowadays are built for the cheats and exploits. The servers are filled with them. It's unfortunate for us clean players. EA doesn't care, so c'mon. Lets all get the cheats, they are free, and lets see who can utilize their hacks the best, I mean, at least it would level out the playing field. If not, then you might as well find another game, because that's the road it is on. Untill a new hacking game  comes out, we are going to have to put up with the hackers, because EA just doesn't care. So get to the cheat sites, dl your cheats, and hack your * off. Obviously nothing will happen to you. :/
