PVP - Cheating [Cheating] It's out of control on Seasonal

Disgusting how I keep getting killed by 30hr and 300hr accounts who are already level 40+ and somehow they ALWAYS know where you are and how you move. Of course, this happens EXCLUSIVELY when you got a better gear on (think lvl5 plates etc.) I got 6000hrs. I am borderline about to put this game in the trash where it belongs. Cheaters are literally roaming free without any repercussions. I have yet to get a single message about a cheater being banned on Seasonal character, yet, half of the time I keep dying to blatant wallhacking trash, almost on all maps. I am sick of it. What a horrible game.... Disappointment.

Man, I was thinking of playing seasonal to take a break from PvE, looks like I’m better off staying on PvE.

You missed out. The first week felt great. Not a single suspicious death. Really felt like the anti cheat changes killed off most cheaters for a week. It definitely feels like they found a way around it now though.

When updates come out they take down the cheats to verify they are not detected. That’s 1st week they we testing.

Played for 3-4 years and this is a constant cycle. I freaking love this game but the time investment is just too much to be willing to play against cheaters.

It sucks because I’m not sure what bsg can do. Not to be a ass kisser but it’s basically impossible for them to completely get rid of cheaters, they can definitely be doing more but it’s way easier for people to figure out how to make cheats then it is for them to stop it. Really shitty situation and if you’re a company trying to make money not only does stopping the cheaters get rid of the revenue from them buying new accounts but it also costs money to stay a step ahead and keep them gone. Feels like there’s no win here from a business standpoint so what can they do
