Battlefield 3: DICE banned this week a 'significant number of BF3 cheaters'

DSOGaming writes: "Cheaters. We’ve played against them, we hate them. These people are the main reason we’ve stopped playing BF3 and thankfully, DICE has already started taking care of them. We knew that the company has been banning some of them and we are happy to report that this week, DICE has banned a significant number of BF3 cheaters."

Are there cheaters on the PS3 version? Put 200 hours into BF3 on PS3 and didnt come across 1 cheater. Maybe if you consider players killing you with MAWs as cheater?

to be hinest i dont understand what the point is to cheating, since your cheating your not actually playing the game the way it was intended so i dont see the fun in that, in all honesty it ruins the game for me, if i cheat to play then im not really playing, its like a waste of my money.

like buying a game, then going home and cheating so i never die, but then im not really playing the game, i just dont get cheaters. i dont understand the thought process behind it, its not like they are good at the game becuase they have to cheat in order to do good so whats the point, i dont see gratification in that , instead i would feel like a loser becuase im not actually playing the game becuase im CHEATING to win.

That's one of the reasons I loved the GRAW2 PC community. The game didn't take off but we were plenty of gamers to play. And since the amount of players was small, there weren't cheaters

yeh just had a bad day of cheaters today myself reported 1 guy icetea100.
killed by a claymoor when the round just started both teams both sides the map after kill cam showed him stood there with claymoor.
another was a sniper killed me from way off kill cam showed him looking at the sky behind a rock.
whats the point really i enjoy soo much when no cheating.

That's not cheating. Just wonky graphics. When someone is peeking over rocks everyone else will see them staring at the sky or directly at the ground.

"because you deserve a fair game."

Good for DICE. This is exactly the attitude a AAA FPS developer should have toward its customers and its product.

[nitrogav]

Is this just on pc or consoles aswell ? .

[BraveToaster]

Yeah? Then why did I see 3 hackers within 1 hour last night? One of them had 30 kills before the beginning of round timer even ended.
