Its starting to get just laughable how many Cheaters are on PC Platform. Just tried to play 2 Drafts and wasted 30k on that. I always tried to avoid the Cheaters in Draft but obvioulsy its becoming so many now its not possible anymore. Obviously now they got a new Method disconnecting the Games instantly and you get the loss. Last WL i had like 8 Games with People using timed finishing Hacks and Legacy Defending. I dont try to report them cause we all know EA dont care about it. I mean EA seriously, even the smallest Gaming Companys use cheating Protections like Easy Anti Cheat or others. Its not hard to implement that. Im a Programmer myself. Why are you not doing that ? it doesnt cost you much. You just have no Programmer to do this ? Send me a Mail, i can implement it for you in a matter of Days.

People are using Cheat Engine on your Game !!!



You should be ashamed really.
I know theres not many players on PC but still we are paying Customers. I just dont understand why you act like this, is it just lazyness or pure Greed ? I dont get it. Just close the Game down on PC or implement a cheating Protection. Its not that hard...
If i buy another FIFA it wont be on PC again, i mean if i ever going to buy another Game by EA. i probably wont.

Don't play draft, it's basic rule. Other than that, you just have to deal with the cheaters. Next year PES is the way to go. They are listening to the community and the current version is really nice.
I really hope a mass migration from Fifa to PES.
Implement a anti-cheater for fifa on PC is extremely easy! 90%+ of actual cheaters use 15 years old techies due ALL game data is exposed in Memory if you run game! a simple Memory data monitoring and protect ban 90% of these!
the main problem is to implement a anti-cheat technology EA need give acess to base code to a 3rd part company, if look whats have in code and made/integrate anti-cheater.
Others EA games on PC have anti-cheater, Sport's game only category if dint have.
i don't know exact reason, however for some reason EA does not want to give access to the game code for anyone to integrate this tool! what will be in the game code that nobody can see?
Any comment on this? We have been waiting years for some sort of information on what action is going to be taken. Even if EA say that you have no plans to do anything about it at least thats something.
Alt+tab block is first thing if Cheaters as burled! cheater's using alt-tab free without any penalty!
Cheater's lock a memory region if report windows focus, if these change main window memory stay same and these wont get lost focus disconnect... and game run normal in background!
actual alt-tab/lost focus disconnect only prejudice clean players! cheater's as bypass it!
i repeat: these guys using 15 years old cheater's techniques... it is so easy to stop and block!
1- No, i wont go pay $ 2k on a console to play only one game!
no any of actual consoles support 144/240 hz/fps and extreme low input latency like PC.
2- Support game and clean community is an obligation of EA.
3- in console have cheater's exploit's, etc... only in low scale, but you facing guys with Perfect shoot scripit , No loss glitch , etc...
Conclusion it's a game security fault! EA need FIX it! Bring security and competitive modes for PC!
Don't get me wrong, implement an anti-cheat is not that complicated. But that's not the point here, right? The point is all the variables around, one of them that you have already mentioned.
- How much of the code they would have to give it away for that? Imagine other companies seen all the shady malicious code behind the game? That
- Fifa PC is probably a port from the console. Would they be able to put the game on PS Store and Xbox Store with an AC layer or they would have to fork their code and then for every update, they would have to do it 2 times, 1 for console and other for PC?
If it was that "half day work" as @KingSimon said, I'm sure they would EA would have it done already. People that say "I'm a software developer, it's easy, it's 1 day work" they really have no clue about software development or working in a complex application.
I'm not defending EA, far from that. I really would like to see this company sink, but a lot of opinions here are beyond clueless.
Besides, nobody here can say that it's easy to implement an anti-cheat on FIFA PC simply because nobody have seen the code and how messy is it. And I honestly believe that is a ❤️❤️❤️❤️ mess, since every year the game is basically the same just with a few adjustments.
There is just no reason to fix the game for them. First, there is barely a competitor for Fifa, second, their business model is not based on a fun game, but in exploring people's addiction created by FUT where they make shitloads of money with every pack promo.
The game is utterly broken, but as long as people are still addicted in this shady scam of packs and fifa points, their business model is working.
I have knowledge and have played reverse engineering enough with FIFA from 2010 to say that the software leaves the data exposed and raise security in fifa today is simple, basically you have 2 ways:
1º(Complex solution) - improve the way data is executed, encrypt and protect the data in memory, at least in "critical" areas.
Currently this data is easily located, accessed and modified. (including in consoles)
2º(simple solution)- add a tool with routine verification of this data (Exp: punkbuster, battleeye, EAC, etc) , which should look for signature of malicious software running and/or unauthorized modifications to data running the game.
As for the PC version, very unlikely to be a "port" of the consoles?
The game is developed on the PC and its engine was created with focus on the PC, I was alpha test of the "big update" of frostbite in BF4 and reported a series of flaws that EA gave of shoulders, I was suspended of the Forum of Battlefield for excess of details in a bugreport.
Just to Remember Xbox One and windows 10 are much closer than they seem, just a hardware controlled and provided by Microsoft.
Currently both PS4 and Xbox are PC's with AMD hardware with a different and controlled system.
I can say that the implementation of security tools is very simple for FIFA not because I see or not the source code of FIFA, but I see the code of the software that attack it! and these codes are old and can be easily blocked!
if EA want there are options where it wouldn't even need to change the game, just add the proper monitoring tools.
And not EA wouldn't have to make big changes to the distribution system, production, etc.
In addition EA was working on a new security system of its own, which would be already in test on some games, why not include it in FIFA?
But if you complain about the cheating and still buy the game year after year and complain about cheating year after year , Then i see an issue there
i agree, I play on pc and console , i would like to just play on pc, as it looks sexy on ultra wide hi res monitor , But had to accept the cheating on pc after years of complaining about it . So just play some pro clubs on pc now with mates and accept the pro club stat boost cheats, and i play other modes on console . It is bad i have to do this , but it works for me after accepting that the cheats wil never go away , and in fact pc getting worse
Of course it wont help mate. You deal with People at EA, who havnt got any kind if knowledge about what they are doing. See Youtube.
GOOD JOB EA ; VERY GOOD JOB , U ARE THE HEROS
Thats the way how it goes mate!
It will be always deleten what is against the Gameplay, the Company and the Gamemechanics.
the Main problem not is PC platform, is EA security fault! PC is easy platform to FIX IT: add some like BattlEye to PC end this problem on PC.
I dont know if they cant do it because of their lack of skills and knowledge about any Programming or they just dont care about cheating at all?
I mean, we are talking about EA. We are not supposed to expect anything good.
