For those who want further proof check the Discord screenshot in this thread - twitter.com/GhostGamingG/status/1783535228604068202 I wasn't able to include it in the video because I'd already rendered/uploaded at that point.

The absence of a proper killcam in battlefield games also makes it much easier to get away with cheating.

Lmao ... "The attention that i deserve" "We run 2042" ... what a fucking waste of oxygen

Gemini899 has been cheating for ages now,

The cheaters exposed videos were always comedy gold to me

they should Ban them by Hardware so its not so easy to make new Account.

Skyfarmer and his platoon in BF5 used to stream snipe a guy we knew !! total trash !

UPDATE: LukeSkyfarmer has closed his account.

It was proven LukeSkyfarmer was cheating back in bf4, no doubt that loser is cheating now

This is great. Thank you for exposing these cheaters. As a casual BF2042 players I've been noticing that more and more, I'm being insta-headshot by people and being shot through dense smoke.. seeing people in the scoreboard with 100kills per match while the players below has around 40kills total.. I once reported a video of people cheating on the Apex Legends EA Forum and they removed it, with the excuse of "we do not support public shaming". Well, if they stand beside the cheaters.. what the hell we're gonna do?

I've seen a LOT of cheaters lately...

In Battlefield 2042, cheating is widespread among players in the East Asian region, with many openly engaging in it. Fake IDs and conspicuous cheating tactics are utilized to masquerade as top players and club teams from the region. My team has even experienced instances where a group of hackers actively stream-sniped us during our gameplay Cheating in the East Asian region is quite severe, which is why when I play solo, I'd rather endure latency 180ms and play in the US West But EA simply doesn't care how dire the situation is outside the Pacific. EA would say, "That's managed by another EA division," and that division is located in, you guessed it, Shanghai

I'll tell you exactly how to handle it. Allow communities/clans to rent servers and admin them and give them proper spectating and admin tools.

I feel like at times the enemy can see me before I see them.

The amount of aim bots i come across in 2042 is ridiculous

I used to look up to Luke. Thought his gameplays were always impressive and mind blowing. I knew his stream sniping shenanigans and always suspected there was more at play, and Ashe confirmed it for me. All my respect for him has been lost.

why bother cheating in BF? go cheat in CoD where cheating streamers are celebrated. Edit: cheats for air vehicles eh... that explains how some jet pilots can consistently out turn and land every single bullet on me and how they spot ground targets so easily.

DICE ffs... We need a proper spectator mode (basically that one you could join any server with not occupied spectator slots) with free flying camera, 3rd person and first person camera, option to record gameplay with game engine data of suspected player like in CS GO.

This CPTDADDYHIND guy has been cheating for a long time while flying the Apache. I run into him frequently and its blatant as hell. Reported him every time and hes still around.

EA has repeatedly tried to pretend cheating was not an issue in 2042. I was banned from the EA Help forums for pointing out the issue (right before they conveniently decided to swap to a new anti-cheat). Feels nice to be vindicated that the incredibly suspect stuff that happens in matches is very likely to be hack related. 2042 is the one game out of the entire series where I have encountered more cheating than any other, and I think most dismissed it because its not the type of cheating they're used to, where one player just stands and nukes everyone with a machine gun like they did previously. I've had two instances of that in game (one just a few weeks ago). 2042 seems to suffer significantly more from stealth cheating. People pretending they're legit, but they're not. You'll often see these players dominate for a few rounds, get called out, and suddenly be somewhere around the middle or bottom of the board, before jumping back to the top again. Other times they'll immediately leave the server as the round ends, and won't be seen again (given the rather tiny pool of players I regularly encounter, you'd expect to see them reappear). The worst offender for this was a player who ended up rage cheating at the end after being called out, and single-handedly ran from one end of Spearhead to the other on Breakthrough killing every single person instantly with their PP-29. I actually started running an experiment to confirm they were able to see everyone at all times, and they fell right into that trap by instantly finding me every single time. Found, shot three times, dead. To make it more obvious, they were playing as Falck, and too far ahead of their own team for any of them to spot us for them. After that, never saw that player again, and per the tracker they don't appear to have advanced very much at all since. Player had an 80% win rate, which in itself is sus. My win rate is 54% because the teams in the games generally don't perform well. So when I see someone getting 80% wins despite having the same pool of players to fill their team, its a red flag that their cheating is swinging the match hard in their favour. Typically, those players will know your exact position at all times. Sometimes they'll play Paik as a cover, but forget that someone has visual and audio cues they're being scanned. Same for scanning gadgets because of the noise. The wall hacking is always accompanied by an aimbot that puts every shot into the head. Single digit rank players jumping across a gap to instantly beam you with two pistol shots to the head, for instance. They also have a habit of tanking more damage. Recently I was able to hit a player at some distance with a red dot sight on the AK5C. Ended in a headshot, took them down much quicker than expected, but still took 10 rounds. You then encounter one of the players being suspect up close, and hit them with just about the full 40 rounds, and they're still alive.

Why I hate cross-platform. I don't trust any PC player. Thanks for making this video

Still waiting for the scoreboard to show ping for everyone. It does help to spot cheaters versus players with really low ping.

Ya, Hind has been playing with another cheater this past week. They drive around in the LATV4, every shot is a one shot kill. Bunch of cowards.

It’s no surprise cheating is rampant when if you succeed and go under the radar you can create revenue for yourself as a “content” creator so there is a massive incentive in a way to cheat and test your luck with getting away with it

This is why console players never ever wanted cross play. PC hacker will never go away they will always be there. Even if you ban it's just making new accounts maybe start banning ip address

Thank you for the exposure to this, it comes down to integrity. If someone can compromise their integrity in a game, what keeps them from maintaining integrity in every part of their life?

The reason there is no spectator mode is because they know what is going on. There aren't tons of cheaters because our player base is not that big

that is why i want console only crossplay...

Back in BF4, 3, BC2, 2 and 1942, we rented our own servers. These guys didn't stand a chance. They were simply kicked from the servers, using spectator mode and we didn't care if DICE would ban them or not. We were called "Banadmins" and lots of people were mad at us. The fact is that our servers had excellent reputation, they were full 24/7 and nobody complained about cheating. DICE (and most publishers/developers) took the servers to the cloud, which I have to admit has a lot of benefits, but they removed the ability to hire our own server and administer it. Now they develop invasive anti-cheats, some cannot even get uninstalled!!!, that spy on us when the computer is on, even without playing anything, and cheaters still roam in every f*** game. Banwaves are just profit for them, as the cost of cheats is multiple times the cost of the game, and many providers give you a free game if you get banned. So DICE and others make profit for every ban, since most cheaters will buy (direct or indirect) another code.

Ghost, you should make a video on AnekBF. He is currently experiencing the same treatment Ashe went through and it's by the same people including these two dorks in the video.

Becoming? Buddy its been a BIG problem for months! Part of the reasons why crossplay with pc is a big mistake.

I haven't been on for a couple of months but I have noticed on the new game mode low level people with 200 kills

I've run into skyhumper a few times, and on the receiving end of it. no one could take him down. super annoying

Ghost your videos get better and better. Good job! 👍

Oceania is terrible.

Recently, like the last month. More and more cheaters in game. Getting shot through walls. Impossible shots.. one shot kills.. it's sad. Seems like E.A. gave up on the game😢

The main irritating issue is here, that EA let them cheat... And then cry why the community is angry with the Dice devs... 🤢🤮

This Lukeskyfarmer is hacking and probably use Silent Aim. Thats were you have a hit bubble and everybody in this bubble dies if you shoot, your crosshair dont have to be on the enemy. Silent Aim is perfect for air vehicles.

Cross-play = One of the worst ideas ever.

Former Bf3-bf4 pilot here. The rampant cheating is a result of the game dying soo early from the franchise being semi frozen by EA. As a result the skeleton dice team maintaining the game is probably stretched thin to deal with the issue properly. Its unfortunate but many gaming communities with lack of hard dev support slowly decay. This is my best explanation of whats happening on the game these days.

I don't play cross play for this reason keep PCs on their own thing let PS and XB players cross play...This is just my opnion.

One thing that has always been a constant in BF in the 20+ years I have been playing it, is EA's anti-cheats/punkbusters have done very little to end cheating in the game.

The best tell I've seen recently is running the in game Network Monitor there are instances of three headshots in a row from an fully automatic weapon at distance.

I can't believe somebody had been seeing this other than me! I had beef with this guy LukeSkyfarmer that was always in my lobby's hacking/cheating with his helicopters constantly & he would never run on foot! I have reported this guy left & right. He disappeared & reappeared after numerous reports but never banned! He's not good & he thinks he's bad. You can't be good with recoil mechanics & wall hacks. EA/Dice says no body wall hacks they're games or cheats in they're games. I asked dice/ea on Reddit why are people cheating in 2042 after I got fed up with this guy here that you talk about. But that's what they told me...people don't cheat/hack in our games. This guy needs to be permanently banned. So funny thank you for this video. This made my day!

I have seen people using Nightbird getting kills all the time with almost no break, and also people shooting through ground and walls. Also. Redacted have a glitch that were never fixed where i seen people warp through the wall around the center of the map.

I personally think it is a big problem ,im no mug ive played FPS games for 30yers plus and im no pro player either but im decent but the times ive been suspicious of a number of players and checked them out on BF2042 stats only to find their headshot percentages with AR and SMG's all above 95%. You bring it to light and get met with the usual get good comments but I certainly wouldn't call anyone out without checking their accuracy stats first and its fair to say their are a lot with ridiculous numbers.

9:45 you can see the rocket route bending lol

I've encountered maybe 2 or 3 legit cheaters the entire time of 2042, only reason I know they are real cheaters is cause they were spin botting when they killed people, basically blatant rage hacking. Also find it interesting that most of the cheaters I see getting exposed are vehicle players, I don't see infantry cheaters all too often, which I honestly thought it would be the other way round. And on a side topic, I don't watch streamers, I don't care for streamers but what is happening to Ashe is sad af, that guy who is stalking/stream sniping him has to be mentally ill or something, I genuinely don't understand how people find doing that shit funny on a daily bases, like ok maybe stream snipe once as a piss take I can understand but the guy has been doing it for year/s at this point, it's honestly sad. DICE need to do something about that asap.

It never ceases to amaze me how so many streamers are so surprised/ignorant that cheating is rampant in ALL fps games. Smart PC cheaters go out of their way to keep a low profile (a good but not crazy KD), and BF2042 is absolutely LOADED with them!! One ego driven idiot making it obvious doesn't mean they're the only one. Wake up!

"The best bf pilot ever " That's a bold statement dude, like I ve been dogfighting insane pilots across 20 years of battlefield. I'm quite sure he hasn't even got in touch with the all-time top tiers

Probably would’ve guess Hind cheating. I’ve had them in a squad and asked them directly before if they use anything. Basically seeing what set up they use, but now looking at this, I feel guilty for even being in a squad with them.

That makes sense the few I been killed by lately I noticed they didn’t have the best stats in the few games played but how they killed me multiple times miles away & behind walls

I played Redacted Breakthrough with this guy on the team. He went 206-2 with an MP9 in a 10-minute game. How the f is that possible with a 40-bullet SMG? I personally went 90+ with an LMG in a server with an almost equal skill level team, and the game went on for a very long time.

Is it true that PlayStation users can avoid cheaters by just cutting off the cross play?

Even if lukeskyfarmer isn't cheating, that discord message is enough for me to stop watching him. What a POS!

Yeah, Lukeskyfarmer is definitely cheating.

The map Redacted have the most cheaters on console. That player with a 165 - 21 or 125 - 11 type of score.

12:25 you can literally see the rockets bend... No wonder people think air vehicles are op. People like this make them seem overpowered!

Exactly why I’m done playing this game. Yesterday I ran into cheaters 3 games back to back. DICE don’t do anything about this. I’m playing on PS5 and whenever I try to play with crossplay off it’s impossible to get into lobbies.

Come On Ghost! Are you on really, really, good drugs? I have 2,400+ hours on 2042. It is OBVIOUS there are DBag cheaters in 2042. GREAT video. Captain Douchyhind's video illustrates what I knew was happening. Thank You!

Well one thing I learned from playing MGO2/3 is that cheaters would intentionally lower their KDR to hide the cheating. If anyone called them out they would point to the low KDR and troll the accusor.

Ayoooo I was mentioned! I'm that flex. All these dudes are complete trash!

Ghost experience with cheaters: It's not so bad. Asia server experience with cheaters: cHiNA nUmBAh oNe

It is possible to destroy full HP Wankcat with one rocketpod strafe but you have to attack it perpendiculary from side. This guy's rockets spread is impossibly tight assuming this footage is post rocket pod patch.

Nothing is more pathetic than cheating in multiplayer games... where's the fun in all that?

Why not require players to provide hardware info when we accept the terms and conditions of the game? If they're found to be cheating, then ban them from a hardware level? I figure they'd be less likely to do it if they run the risk of their pc being ban.

I believe there is an anti cheat that registers your PC parts.. Therefore if you are caught cheating, for example for your graphic card has a serial number, once it has been flagged as cheater account, no matter how many accounts you make the serial number on your pc parts has already been flagged and the pretty much your whole PC has been locked out of the game.. This goes for hard drives and motherboards.

When we from the Linux world say that “anti-cheat kernel” is something that doesn't add any security at all, at the expense of your privacy, we are the “doom days” ones. The worst is to hear, “I don't care if they can access everything on my PC, I just want no cheaters”, well, that just proves that there will always be cheaters, the way is how you fight against them. Dota 2 does a nice stuff where you can review replays and actually get cheaters while reporting them.

Shame on DICE for letting this happen to ASH. SHAME

Dude, I bought BF2042 a couple weeks ago and I noticed a lot of people doing insane stuff and shots out of this world... I was wondering why.

Why can't we have anything in peace?!

I remember that CPTDADDYYHIND guy, met him a years snd half ago on 2042 with his friend NYPDARMSTRONG or whatever, still in there discord tbh, don't even talk to them anymore since I moved back to bf4 with my older friend group

Cheating is an uphill battle now with DMA hardware out there, which for those uninitiated is Direct Memory Access. Basically it's a PCIe card that allows an external computer to do the hacking which gets directly injected into the second PC. The advantage is the cheat code is not on the computer that they're playing on, so it can't be seen even by kernel cheats. They also spoof the hardware identifiers so it shows up as something innocuous. Right now it's a pretty expensive way to cheat from what I've heard, but as technology advances the cost will come down. Sad really. We almost need to bring back LAN parties. Anyone cheating there is in for a public shaming.

I hate cheaters man

It’s hard to want to play after I’ve seen some of the hacks on X and KZfaq posted. I would like to know what ea and dice plan to do to address this.

Silk is a frickin beast and knows his vehicles, I would believe him even if there was no hard proof. He's quite possibly the real best vehicle player or at least close.

On Asian servers, we get cheaters every other game. Sometimes 2 in the same match battling it out against each other. And they're not trying to hide it either.

I was in that match in the clip with CPTDADDYYHIND. I knew for sure the guy was cheating. It's hard to tell on my phone but I even think I see my ign in the kill log (not from him) but I was killed quite a few times by him. He just seemed to know exactly when to peek and exactly where to start shooting. Im on PS5 and I know there is a huge discrepancy between PC and console movements but he just seemed to know exactly where everyone was and now I know why.

Too much cheaters in Asia server....How can i change region on XBox ?

I bought 2042 after the free to play event for season 7.. at first I though oh I’m just a new player, that’s why I’m dying so much, need to learn the game, upgrade, etc etc. it wasn’t until I got a lil more experienced with the game that I could start to see those who cheat. It ticked me off and basically stopped playing. I wish with cross play we had ability to select with or without pc players…

Wow, that confirms so many of my suspicions over the past two years with both those guys. I've literally gotten into arguments with clan mates about how sus DH and LSF are. It wasn't that they were just good pilots -- they are -- it was how they seemed to be able to find you no matter where you were and this explains it. And it's funny, as I was watching the beginning of this, I kept saying "what about the guys he runs with" and, yep.

12:33 you definitely can still one-strafe AA if you hit the majority of rockets

Back early this year dozer was my anticheat. Back then the aimbot will not go through the riot shield, but then lately it’s not the case.

Hacking in gaming in general has become a hell of a lot worse, scamming people out of money

As a former BF2 admin, most players are ignorant or just plain lying when it comes to hackers. On PC UK servers for 2042 I witness usually 4 or more aimbotting every match, and its very obv , as in one hit kills from guns which do 35 dmg, or all Headshots in one frame. DICE didnt do a thing about hacking in BF1, BF4, BFV, BF 2042 - remember those nub hackers ARIZ for example? lmao. 2042 isnt a bad game when no hackers are on, it plays completely differently and hit reg is better. But, Every BF game is dead cos of aimbotters, and tbh Ive yet to see an actually BF streamer on YT have recoil or spread...

Cool thing about the free to play battleroyale mode, is that most cheaters are going to stay there and are going to leave multiplayer players alone.

Time to play the trash last gen version.

Didn't Luke used to play on Playstation? I seem to remember running into the name in BFV. If he's cheating on PC, I wouldn't be surprised if he was using Cronus and/or Xim on console.

Yeah, I'm a hacker in BF2042. I'm a Rao main, and not scared to share it!

Played against that luke guy on PlayStation a lot on bfv and he definitely used a Cronus when ever on the ground even though he also mained pilot a lot still. Really wouldn’t be surprised he uses other cheats now that he is on pc.

honestly what goes through peoples heads when they use cheats. like are you really having fun playing the game. Part of the fun when coming and playing new games is learning and training to make yourself a better player. SMH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For them to say they are the best while cheating is hilarious 😂😂😂😂 it's like beating up a man who has no arms and saying you're hard AF 😂

Met Skyfarmer twice with my brother and he had suspicions about him cheating. Despite the high kill count his side still lost twice.

It’s so hard to even report a player for cheating I call them pro hackers…

The cheater is actually all time high in the Asia server. It's absolutely unplayable right now

The cheaters started to appear on us servers about 1 month ago. Last weekend there were multiple in each game of frontlines. I think they were grinding the ribbons never seen it so bad.

And after all that you PC players still wonder why console players just want the ….option to play with console players ONLY ….really guys… 😩😅😂

Why is this guy getting any clout, being at 1.1k followers but I'm over here at 1.7k with legit and better content, makes me sick that a cheater with dogcrap content gets views, but I'm over here showing real skill getting literally bones. Hard being a legit content creator

Add enders and maxiq to the list...

Thats a sub. How sad that existence must be. Might have to show this to my son. Hear him getting upset sometimes about hackers and told him its pretty unlikely these days( I used to play a lot of bf3 and 4 and saw my fair share.) This makes me wonder if he is seeing a lot more than I did. Best part? He gets accused of cheating regularly and I guarantee he isn't (my pc and with my knowledge of ICT he can't hide anything like that from me even if he tried.) That's fricking hilarious. 🤣
