DICE posted on the Battlefield 3 blog earlier today that they “have raised the anti-cheating measures”; so it states here. They are claiming that they have banned a fist full of  ”confirmed” cheaters based on the community reports that have been submitted to DICE. This is huge news for Battlefield 3 because the uprising of people cheating has been tremendous since it’s release back in October, 2o11. I, personally myself, have come across a few in game, but not as much as other players have experienced, which I’m grateful for. DICE states in their post that they have “always taken cheating seriously” and that starting today they will further increase their efforts to stop this matter that’s on hand. They also state that if you think you are a victim to this “cheating”, that you should report their profile under their renowned battlelog. By doing this, it will decrease the amount of players that are actually cheating and increase the overall quality of the game/experience you have in a game.

I hope this really does reduce the number of people cheating in Battlefield 3. It’s not very fun when you join a game and you have to deal with people that are “god-like”. It personally ruins my game experience, which I’m sure it does the same for others. I’m glad DICE is actually taking actions to this though… you don’t see many companies do something this large scale. I mean, Xbox live itself isn’t even that great at cracking down on people for cheating, or anything of the such. I guess we will just have to see where this goes from here.

What do you think on this? Do you actually think that DICE is going to be cracking down super-hard on this, or is it all talk? Let me know what you think by adding a comment to this post!
