Cheat developers are discontinuing hacks for the franchise\u2019s latest release because the game\u2019s performance is too bad, and no one is playing the game. While Battlefield 2042 came out swinging with big promises to stop cheaters in their tracks (failing before the game even launched), they\u2019ve managed to complete the task \u2014 somewhat. However, it\u2019s not the best news for DICE and EA. Apparently Battlefield 2042\u2019s in-game performance is so bad and riddled with bugs and glitches not even cheat developers can crack the code. Cheating sites are canceling hacks for the game for now \u2014 not just because of the scuffed code, but because no one is playing the game. \u201cThe reason for this decision is the ongoing performance issue of the game which affects the cheat, and that most people don\u2019t use their subscription anymore since the game is dying,\u201d one cheat developer told players on Discord. A #Battlefield2042 Cheat provider is suspending it&#8217;s services to the game\u2026 And no\u2026 It&#8217;s not because of Anti-cheat. It&#8217;s because the games performance makes the cheats not work properly \ud83d\ude02 pic.twitter.com\/IuHMNSWMfe \u2014 Tom Henderson (@_Tom_Henderson_) January 12, 2022 This comes after a terrible couple of months for DICE following Battlefield 2042\u2019s flop. The game was overtaken by its predecessor, Battlefield V, on Steam in terms of player count. Numerous developers have left the studio to pursue other projects after shipping the game, with the bugs racking up and few fixes in sight. Since the start of 2022, Battlefield 2042 is yet to crack 20,000 concurrent players on Steam. It is averaging around 9,000 a day with the player base dwindling. While DICE are continuously shipping updates to try and stem the bleeding, whether players will ever return to Battlefield 2042 remains to be seen. Steam has gone as far to offer players refunds no matter how much they\u2019ve played the game. One thing is for sure though: if players do come back to the title, so will the cheats.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Battlefield 2042\u2019s performance is so bad cheating sites are discontinuing hacks for it DICEBattlefield 2042\u2019s cheating problem is being solved \u2014 but not in the way DICE would be hoping for.
