EA please don't listen to them and keep doing your work against this plague fest that are the cheaters who kill the funny to everyone else. And from my part, you can add 3 kernel anti cheat programs in your games. Also, most of the time those who will complain on internet about anti cheat kernel level programs, are usually exactly the cheaters and cheat developers!

Guess what guys, in 2024, most of anti cheat programs, if not all of them, are KERNEL LEVEL!

You could search for this title and you will find there all of your games you probably just played, and it's so since Battlefield 2!

    The game hangs at the splash screen now and is not even starting after this "great" 1.9 patch

    Unfortunately you seem do not to understand the problem.
    I am one of the ppl which complain about this anticheat and i am definitely not an cheater.
    Never was one and never be.
    If this shady procedure of implementing it would be announced BEFORE the release so poeple like me wouldnt buy it.
    So this implementation afterwards is lets say...not nice.

    Short after release it was already visible that the leaderbords are infested with the cheaters and lot of us shown that to EA.
    This behavior was also visible in DR2.0 so no lessons learnt.

    Look in the steam forums about posts about starting problems after the anticheat implementation and then rethink the practics with kernel anticheat.

    As for me ive stopped to play the "online part" and played only the singleplayer part.
    So in my case i dont need a anticheat and i dont wanted to be forced to use that stuff.

    And any critics here about it seems to be deleted like my last two posts.
    Got two bans (24h and 48h) for nothing.
    So you think is this is the right way to threat the customers like that?
    Anyway. This game was uninstalled long ago and that was it.
    There will be no EA game for me in the future.
