I don't know what console you're playing on, but I've been playing since the release and I haven't met any hackers. Rarely some weird things would be happen like someone killing me while they're facing their back towards me, but that might have been just lag or something. Other than that, the only hacker I see are the ones that this "Fairfight" bans. Plus it's just stats, play a new game and show them who's the boss 😉
I've never encountered a hacker in the PC version of this game. Could you post footage of these hackers?

This is my first foray into online gaming, and I don't know how to "catch" hackers. All I know is that I've played 60+ hours on this game, and it seems like there are some players who are benefiting from something. I'm loathe to call anyone a cheater, but, as I've posted on another thread, I consistently come up against players who seem to have mystical abilities. For example, I snuck up on one player, unloaded 3 shots to the back and he/she suffered no damage, turned around (while I continued to fire) and shot me once with a weaker blaster and I was dead. When the death screen showed, player had zero damage and no power up star cards that would have rendered his blasters stronger than mine. If this happened once, I would chalk it up to accident or me sucking, but it happens ALL THE TIME, IN EVERY GAME. Also, there are some players who seem to have magnets or trackers attached to me or something; same player shows up within 5 seconds of me spawning, not matter where I spawn and kills me 8 times in a row. Seems fishy. All I know is that I've muddled my way up to level 28, 2000 points at a time, and I still seem to consistently die from one blaster shot while my opponents live after 10.

There are plenty of hackers in this game. Just Youtube "Star Wars Battlefront Aiming Hack". There are so many pages it will blow your mind. My wifer pre-ordered this for me in May as a birthday present for my PS4. I normally don't play FPS games but thought I would give them another try. I won't buy another one. This is the same Battlefront issue I ran into 6 or 7 years ago. Nothing has changed.
I have seen several hackers with the worst being a guy that had 35 kills and 1 death. The death was from him jumping off the map with a jet pack. He ran into several groups and killed 4 or 5 guys without getting below 50% health. I have slowly been getting more and more angry about the hacks and today called EA and asked for a refund. I was told there would be no refunds and the EA customer service person hung up on me. So get use to guys shooting you from off the screen or through the walls or best of all sprinting, jumping off an object and 1 shoting you in the head without breaking stride..
There have been plenty of times I have come up on 4 or 5 guys and killed every one of them. There probably is a few hackers out there, but there will always be hackers in every game. Its just part of life. People suck. That being said, just because you're not as good as other people doesn't make them a cheater. Keep playing until you get as good. If what you're doing isn't working, switch tactics. Go snipe, try different loadouts, everyone plays differently. Find what works for you. Try to have fun and STOP calling people cheaters/hackers, just makes you look like a wimpy little school-age baby girl Barbie lover lol
t could be your ping Briozzy. I assume from your name that your an Aussie in Queensland??
I'm in Australia as well and have exactly the same problem.
I assume that it's all because of a high ping to the overseas servers - I can unload a full blaster at an enemy, have them turn and kill me with one shot and zero damage.
I don't think there's a solution unless they establish some servers over here

I'm surprised at the number of forum admins who deny knowledge of hackers/cheats. As suggested, if one does a simple search on "Star Wars Battlefront Wall Hack," there are lovely companies out there who are proudly boasting their cheating prowess. Heck, for a small monthly fee, we can all become dirtbag cheaters too!
I'm not sure if it violates forum conduct, but I took a screenshot of the first hit I got; note the bit where the company boasts, "Undetected by FairFight." How hard would it be for the folks at EA to purchase this software and tear it apart? Or is our integrity as a society so low that we resort to "Well, everyone does it..." logic and accept that there will always be losers in bathrobes and basements looking to "pretend" that they are absolute bad a$$es.
You don't have to look that hard, and by turning a stubbornly blind eye to the problem, EA is perpetuating it.
I'm sure there are skilled players out there who are legit. I'm also sure that in a game like Blast, where it is a veritable killing frenzy that to amass 40 kills to 5 deaths is sketchy.
What I don't get is why people resort to cheating to begin with. Just so you can get great stats and claim that you "won?" If you resort to hacking the game, all you proved is that you're not capable of winning without help, and that you lack the wherewithal to improve you game like the rest of us who DON'T cheat and play the game as designed. Seriously, I'd love someone to explain it to me...is there money in cheating at online games? I'm totally new at this; 40+ years old and resisted all of the other FPS games. Now I can see I should have never started.
I am a jaded rookie gamer who still feels like it is not ok to cheat.

Which admins deny it?
They don't deny. Maybe because they play the game on XboxOne/PS4. Cause if they played the game under PC, they would know what we are talking about. Or maybe because, like us, can't find a match to play under PC: servers are "empty".
Hero......wake and smell the roses.....this game is going to be killed by the hackers....been on a few where the guys are using aimbot 110 kills for 1 death. Lots of guys complaining about the hackers....whats EA going to do about it maybe they should have admins on the server to fix this *....
