Great a player with nearly 2 full days of play time and clearly cheating every single one of them.

How can DICE pretend this game has ANY anti cheat in it?

Oh and lol at Westie. Must have been short of views so thought he better criticise his employers game (I bet he was pre-approved). Must drive those clicks!

Between crashes and their servers crashing this game is beyond a joke

Is the reason why I get MASSIVE frame drops in this game (we are taking total pauses) because of my CPU?

Is a 2700x just not up to the task?

Hard to say without tracking your hardware (eg w/ hwinfo). Did you install it on the ssd? My immediate thought is that it's a data streaming issue.

It's installed on an 970 Evo M.2

No, I have a 2600 and it runs fine (well, last time I played it).

It's DX12 that's the problem. Switching to DX11 is much better. Maybe it's my GPU.

It's just BFV

Try:

• Repairing install
• Latest chipset and graphics drivers
• Switching DX versions within game

Edit:

Nope, its just BF V

To be fair to the inflatable shill, I think he's worried he'll get no viewers if no one is interested in playing BF anymore. Most of the other tubers cover some other games on the side.

Came across these scummer cheaters the other night! Ran for each and every one of us, taking us out with pinpoint accuracy.. Bang bang dead, one after the other without any miss



Check out the Firestorm wins! And that's each player, nearly 300

Cheating is out of control and EA/DICE are doing bugger all about it!

 

[delvey]

Wow, fired this up today for the first time in months. Running like a pile of crap. Frame drops galore. It is running worse with my Vega 64 than 290x
Typical DICE/EA

Yep it’s a dog atm and not improving.. player base has to be shrinking with all the issues, does not bode well for the game.

Been playing Star Wars BF2 again recently and it’s so good now they have added content and fixed all the bugs. There’s hope that Dice can do the same with BFV but getting tired of alpha testing AAA games for 2 years..

Not gonna happen - BF1 and 5 came out with all the old bugs they'd finally fixed in BF4, etc. it is a joke and they have no motivation to improve while people buy the games on release. Dice do pretty graphics and some amazing attention to graphic detail but their main studio's attention to detail in coding and gameplay mechanics is incompetent at best.

 

[Scooter72]

Dice do pretty graphics

yeah the Frostbite Engine is dam good. I am sure the problems with the game mechanics are not trivial to fix but agree there seems to be no willingness to get it done. They push out cosmetic crap pretty quick though

I dunno albeit I've not done any serious games coding since the days of DX7-8 and mostly modding since but a lot seem to be shoddy half-arsed work in "glue" code/utility functions that have only been worked on enough that they are "mostly working" with a distinct laziness in approach. A lot of the longer standing bugs in BF4 I'm pretty such I could fix in in an "afternoon" (not literally because it would take longer than that to familiarise myself with their game architecture and make sure changes didn't have potential unintended outcomes) which is why I'm so scathing about them.

 

[Scooter72]

@Rroff interesting perspective thanks.. so have you got a couple of spare days to fix this bag of crap ??

 

[scubes]

Mines gets far and then hinge and then crashes .and it’s like that on every lvl.

Cheating is out of control in this game now sadly Even with a number of well known youtubbers mentioning it, you'd think Dice/EA would actually care!

 

[opethdisciple]

This year I might give COD another go when the new on launches. BF1 and V haven't cut the mustard.

I truly think the only chance of any anti-cheat measure is going to be when (if) the RSP is rolled out giving control of the game to people who actually give a fig, the players.
