Battlefield 3 dev hiring 'anti-cheat administrator' to stop the evildoers

4.3
Are you one of those guys in a helicopter hovering near spawn points in Battlefield 3 (say, an aircraft carrier), wantonly exploiting the game and infuriating players? You may not actually be cheating, but we still think you're the worst.

That aside, Battlefield 3 developer DICE is apparently looking to address all cheaters, and not just that guy who ruins the game for everyone with his stupid, stupid helicopter, as the company has posted an ad for an "anti-cheat administrator." The move follows a recent redoubling of DICE's efforts to combat cheating in its latest game release.

Said administrator will be tasked with a variety of responsibilities, many of which you'd expect a community liaison to handle, though the list is oddly missing "put up with staggering levels of infantile behavior from legal adults." Can you tell we don't like cheaters?

You, and people like you, are why I hate this forums community. Think before you post something stupid like this.


Lol, +1; I completely agree.

The fact that they are using them isn't the problem, it's how they're using them.. Being cheap, getting easy, no-skill kills by hovering around in the spawns and picking off people.. That's against the spirit of the game.. the helicopter was planned to be a support unit, to go out into the center of the battlefield and assist in the destruction of a pesty tank, or aid in escorting your friend in a Humvee from one base to another.

Killing everyone as they spawn / crippling one teams Jet(s) and helicopter(s) for a game is cheating.

If they didn't fix things like this, DICE wouldn't have the great name that they have.

Spawn trapping = Call of Duty.


IT IS PART OF THE GAME!!! Do you think in real life they would stop and say, hmmm, should I shoot those guys tanks that are just sitting there. NO! adress there thugs before the game comes out, just because people complain does not make it cheating!! SPAWN TRAPPING=not cheating, and in cod it was so easy to get out of a spawn trap: QUIT, find a new game.
Did you respawn in real life too?

I will spawn kill in the Jet frequently, I'm that ass. It's not my fault you can't liftoff/extinguisher quickly, but I can honestly say it's not fun it be in the opposite position.

They need to make the jet spawns farther away and make them unable to return after take off.

I wonder if this will come to console? They have Sever Admins on PC, that can kick still. I would like to see this on console.
