Abandon all hope, ye who banned here.
Posting this partly to put it on record and partly to find out whether anyone else has been through the same thing, because the more I dig into it the worse it looks. The short version is that my account was permanently banned from Battlefield 6 on 16 May 2026, with a customer-facing reason of "Gameplay Enhancement" and an internal reason code on the disclosure of COMPETITIVE_ADVANTAGE. My recorded K/D in BF6 was 0.79 (I enjoy attacking on Breakthrough, ok?). Whatever the statistical profile of an account running unauthorised software is supposed to look like, that is not it. The appeals process went nowhere. I submitted two appeals, and the first came back quickly with nothing of substance, while the second sat in a queue, produced a "we will update you as soon as possible" holding message, and was then denied on 3 June with no evidence, no explanation, and no sign that a human had actually reviewed it. At no point across either appeal did EA tell me what I was supposed to have done, when I had done it, or in which match it was meant to have happened. That is what eventually pushed me into filing a Subject Access Request, and this is the part that matters most. In order to find out the basis on which I had been branded a cheater, I had to invoke UK GDPR and formally compel EA to disclose the data they hold on me. What came back does not hold together. The anti-cheat section of the disclosure runs to 234 rows, and every single one contains the same five fields: session start, session end, date, IP address, and a title ID, with nothing else attached. There are no detection events, no flags, no anomaly scores, and nothing whatsoever identifying which session is meant to contain a violation. The narrative that accompanies it lists three reasons for the sanction. Unauthorised software, boosting, and excessive teamkilling and points to "the sessions identified in the attached file," except that there are no identified sessions in the attached file and nothing in it capable of supporting any of the three reasons. They handed me a log of the times I logged in and presented it as the evidence against me. I don't even play Hardcore modes where teamkilling is enabled so somewhat confused by this statement. My own match reports were included in the same disclosure, around nineteen matches with full per-match stats, seemingly as proof of my alleged conduct, and they do me no harm at all (apart from being embarrassed I am so bad at this despite playing for 20 years). Kill counts run from single figures into the low teens, accuracy sits at something like thirty-odd hits from two hundred or more shots fired, and a couple of headshots in a match counts on a good day. Steam is a dead end as well. I asked them to refund the purchase or intervene, and they confirmed in writing that they will not act on a publisher ban, which leaves me having paid £59.99 for a game I cannot launch, sanctioned for reasons the publisher cannot substantiate, with the storefront declining to get involved. I am not asking EA to take my word for anything. I am not asking you to take my word for anything. I am asking them to produce the basis for a permanent sanction they have already imposed, and after exhausting their appeals process and forcing a statutory disclosure out of them, they still have not done it. The data they were legally obliged to provide contains no evidence of cheating at all. So a couple of questions for the forum: Has anyone else been banned for "Gameplay Enhancement" and never received a shred of evidence for it? Has anyone actually had a false-positive ban overturned, and if so, what was the route that genuinely worked? I have every case reference, the full SAR disclosure, and the correspondence on file, and I am happy to compare notes. If there is a pattern here, it would be worth establishing it properly.Solved1.7KViews5likes51CommentsFaith and religion expansion pank
My idea for a Faith & Religion Expansion Pack for The Sims 4 ❤️ I would absolutely love to see an expansion pack about faith, religion and spirituality in The Sims 4. I really think this would be a meaningful addition to The Sims 4. Both Christian and Muslim players could benefit from being able to represent their faith in the game, because religion is an important part of many people’s everyday lives, culture and identity. giving players the freedom to create Sims and families that reflect real life. ❤️ Faith is a big part of many people’s lives, so I think it deserves a place in The Sims 4 too. I think it could be something really special because religious Sims could finally have activities that allow them to express their faith in the game. Players could choose in Create-a-Sim whether their Sim is Christian, Muslim, or another faith, and decide how much their Sim wants to participate in religious activities. For Christian Sims, I would love things like: - Going to church on Sunday and attending a church service - Praying with folded hands or praying on their knees - Reading the Bible - Singing Christian worship music - Making their own Christian music - Having moments where Sims feel peaceful, joyful and connected to God - Raising their hands during worship when Christian music is playing - Having a church that Sims can visit together with their family and friends For Muslim Sims, there could also be respectful activities based on Islamic traditions, such as: - Visiting a mosque - Prayer and different ways of praying - Wearing hijabs and other traditional clothing - Reading the Quran - Celebrating important Islamic holidays and traditions - Having a place where Muslim Sims can meet and worship together I would also LOVE a BIG Christian music and faith festival, similar to the real-life Opwekking Festival. It could be a huge event where hundreds of Sims come together with their friends and family. There could be a large stage with huge speakers playing Christian worship music, Christian singers and bands performing, and lots of Sims singing and worshipping together. Sims could raise their hands during the music, pray together, dance, spend time with each other and enjoy the festival. I would love the whole festival area to have an atmosphere of joy, happiness, freedom, love and togetherness — a place where Christian Sims can celebrate their faith and feel connected to God and to other people. There could also be camping, food stands, activities for families and different areas around the festival grounds, making it feel like a real multi-day Christian festival. I think the most important thing would be that the pack is made respectfully and together with people from different religions, so that Christian, Muslim and other religious players can recognize their faith in the game. It could also be optional. Players who don't want their Sims to participate in religion wouldn't have to. I would genuinely love an expansion like this because I think it could make The Sims feel even more diverse and meaningful. ❤️ EA, please consider making a Faith & Religion pack! 🙏28Views0likes0CommentsThings fcmobile need to add to make the game game more realistic Part 2

I honestly don’t understand how we’re having this exact same conversation again. Being forced to play on a controller against PC players (and anyone on mouse and keyboard) is completely draining all the fun out of this game. The gap in movement, flicking, and precision is insane. Half the time I drop before I can even pull the trigger, and even PC players in chat joke about how console players just feel like easy AI bots. And they're right. Every time a gunfight actually feels fair, balanced, and fun, it’s always against another controller. We literally went through this with BF 2042. So many of us ended up downloading the last-gen version just to get away from PC lobbies and actually enjoy console-only matchmaking. Did no one take any notes from how much that hurt the player base? What stings the most is that before launch, a dev told us console-only crossplay was on the table. Then out of nowhere, an EA executive shuts it down and basically gives us an ultimatum: either take full global crossplay or turn it off and enjoy empty lobbies. It feels like a slap in the face. Meanwhile, the game is full of glaring issues that keep getting pushed aside: Still no persistent server browser Broken matchmaking that disbands lobbies every single match Horrible desync and hitreg problems between platforms Blatant balance issues that just sit there for months Yet the store updates never miss a beat. New skins roll out without delay, but basic gameplay integrity is an afterthought. The player count is already bleeding, and feeding console players into an unfair meat grinder is just driving the rest of us away. I haven’t spent a single dime on microtransactions, and I won’t. If this is how EA and the devs are going to treat console players, I’m done buying your games, from this franchise or this publisher altogether. Give us console-only crossplay, fix the core game, and stop ignoring the people who actually want to love this game.331Views11likes38CommentsAbout Spot Battles
Please add random matchmaking for Spot Battles, similar to the previous skate games. I also strongly recommend standardizing the control settings in Spot Battles to the highest difficulty. Competitive battles should be based on player skill, not on assist settings that give certain players an advantage. Please also adjust the scoring for Finger Flips. Right now, players can get huge amounts of points simply by wiggling the right stick repeatedly after a Seatbelt. It feels extremely unnatural and has a negative impact on the competitive experience. There should also be a system to penalize or remove players who use glitch techniques during Spot Battles or future competitive battle modes. Battles should be fair and equal for everyone. At the moment, some players who rely on glitches are able to reach the top of the leaderboards. Finally, please address players leaving matches early or remaining AFK during battles. There should be appropriate penalties or systems to prevent this behavior and keep matches competitive. Spot Battles should reward actual skill, creativity, and consistency—not exploits, glitches, or advantageous settings. Competitive play needs to be fair for everyone.Are We Gonna Have Answers?
First just want to say I was hoping NHL 27 was going to be the best game put out in years but noticed prior to release that there was little in depth promotion other than Franchise Connected and Presentation. Many of the issues from 4 games ago exist and were never resolved, I tried to play a game without it freezing or having errors and right off the hop I got an error code… I’m not the only one and EASHL still has the freezing intro issue along the jerseys and players not all being shown. Next I noticed BAP form score is still reliant on goals scored. An Enforcer can simply not play in that mode other than being stuck in the AHL. It would be also nice if multiple junior seasons were back from the era of NHL 20. Franchise mode had an increased salary but is. Pretty much the exact same, even the Stanley Cup presentation is still the bland version from NHL 21… Commentary: Well I was hoping for authentic but I guess it was AI generated. Players/Fan faces: They look like Fortnite characters with those graphics and fans in 160P as it’s so blurry. They are also very lifeless which I thought weren’t supposed to be. Gameplay: Same wrap around exploit is still there and Ai Defensive players don’t know how to position properly still, On the PP players dump the puck and on PK they do the opposite. The Ai logic is the worst it has been, Customization: This one has been mind boggling because some logos were removed, Some well known cities/towns are still not in game. PWHL mode removed? Why was this taken away? My oldest niece loved having it. I get controversial opinions but you simply don’t have to obligate yourself to play it. Drop in 6’s: A huge request that many in our community had was to have a better system as it takes us 2 que’s just to find a game that barely fills. Why. Iet us select position before we search and throw us in a dressing room so it doesn’t take forever when most of us don’t have that time to waste. Also indoor games with jersey selection instead of the same two jerseys and team names would be nice. There is more to go on about within bugs that weren’t fixed that were promised to be in this game. For $129.99 CDN for the Deluxe Edition is barbarically insane! It’s barely even worth $80 at this point when the games not working properly or is very similar to the last years game. My question is will any community managers other than Aljo who seems to be the only consistent one gonna speak up and respond to the consumers who pre-ordered or bought the game? I think it’s unfair to let everyone in the dark, The dev team is way bigger than before so that is why my curiosity is pondering whether this game is worth buying… Look at the ratings and you will see. Only seems like the percentage of people who enjoy this are the HUT or Goalie guys but offline it’s been a disappointing experience. Let’s hope Mike and team can figure something out and give us a game that doesn’t feel like it was made using AI.89Views1like4CommentsPlease Bring Back Superstar KO in Madden NFL 27
Hello EA Support, I’m writing because I’m disappointed that Superstar KO appears to be missing from Madden NFL 27. One of the main reasons my friends and I played Superstar KO was because it let us queue into 3v3 games using real NFL teams. That mode was unique and gave us a fun way to play together outside of regular H2H. If Superstar KO and the 3v3 NFL team mode were intentionally removed, could you please explain why? Also, are there any plans to bring them back in a future update? A lot of players enjoyed that mode, and we’d really like the option to play 3v3 with NFL teams again. Thank you for your time, and I hope you’ll consider bringing this feature back. Sincerely,1KViews24likes84CommentsPlease bring Need for Speed Carbon back to modern platforms
Dear EA and Need for Speed Team, I am a longtime Need for Speed fan, and I still consider Need for Speed Carbon (2006) one of the best games in the entire series. I recently bought an original PC copy again because I wanted to experience the game just as I remembered it. Unfortunately, running Carbon on modern systems has become increasingly difficult because of compatibility issues, old DRM and outdated technology. I would gladly purchase an official updated version or remaster featuring modern Windows compatibility, native macOS and Apple Silicon support, widescreen/4K resolutions, improved controller support, and above all the original gameplay, atmosphere and progression preserved. I believe there is still a passionate community that loves Carbon nearly 20 years after its release. I would also be happy to support and promote an official new version among other Need for Speed fans. Please consider bringing this amazing game back to modern platforms without changing what made it special. Thank you for your time.
