Its always good to see cheaters getting banned.

THANK GOD they're banning those engineer hackers. I've been kicked out of multiple lobbies for team killing these cheaters (and don't regret it at all) The patch on the flashlights is also much welcomed. According to a friend, who has done some research, the flashlight is actually brighter than THE SUN (scaled of course). Nevertheless, this desperately needed a patch.

EDIT: oops, didn't mean hackers, I meant cheaters.

Finally! That *** flashlight is so powerful even in daylight. My friend also mentioned that way of "boosting" with engineers. I'm playing MW3 mostly now but I enjoy both games and will probably return to BF3 later.

good, i'm tired of people like that. its good their also lowering the flash light power, it was a tad bit insane.

I dont see how using in game glitches as an advantage to your score, is considered cheating and ban necessary. Its not like if theyre modding the game to be like that. As far as i know there is no in game rules where you cant use your own equipment to your advantage. Just wanna point out that i dont do this, but it is a pretty stupid reason to be banning people. BTW who even has the chance to be doing sh*t like that while im showering the ground with my jet.

That's great, but It'll be awhile before I notice the differences. Skyrim has sucked up all my time.

AWESOME!! Hate those D Bags, wish more games would do the same!!

Niiice. Every time I tried to shoot a 'flashlighter', I was completely blinded by a light that shouldn't be that bright. They had too much of an advantage. Nice one EA.

I haven't noticed any cheating during my time playing. What kind of crazy hacks are people using?

Good. I've only ever come across one of these guys before who was exploiting the god mode glitch. Put 3 clips of assault rifle ammo into him while he was arming the objective and still had 100% health left when he killed me. Also, I am happy about the tac light patch.

BAN ALL THE THINGS!

Weaker flashlight... Thank God!

I think I've ran into one of those cheaters before.. Glad they're doing something about it.

On a related note(for me related by the fact I'm playing both for their unique aspects)- the hack lobby people just started popping up on MW3 like crazy in the last 24hrs. Oh joy...

Not as familiar with how to identify these people on BF3 (which is why I don't go snooping around poking my nose into the non-DICE servers), not that I imagine they're any 'less' there, by % if not #.
***Oh, if this is just about the Eng thing, yeah I know about that (and it's obvious enough to identify someone repairing an upside down tank endlessly)- that's lame, but I'm more put off/worried about people who are hacking or otherwise tampering (which again I haven't noticed a big problem there, but as EA mentioned that if you played on hack servers you would get banhammered, they're obviously out there).

WOOHOOO!!! I am so sick of everyone using a flashlight and me being blinded all the time.

nice

Now if they would only do the same for COD.

I actually have not seen any cheating on Battlefield. I've seen boosters, but they are hardly cheating as it is more of a legal exploitation with a like-minded buddy (I did it to in other games). I'm glad something was said, but I've breached 10,000 points in a game before, nothing too obscure about it either - unless it was double that score. As a matter of fact, it was when I set out to obtain as many ribbons I could when I first started, and I used the LMG 88 from the warfare pack that I received from Gamestop.

I understand for professional reasons why they are not revealing how these cheaters did it, but it'd be wonderful to know so I can put some well placed lead in these cheating smacktards.

Hacking isn't cheating! It makes the experience more fun! *sarcasm*

If they would do this for spawn campers, then we would have fun
