"EA has announced (via Twitter) that over the past week, they’ve banned “hundreds of offending accounts” in regards to Battlefield 3, and added that they’ve also stats wiped the accounts of those who were “boosting”, e.g. using in-game glitches to boost their score. EA will continue to monitor players and “take action” against players who don’t respect the game. The bans happened across all platforms.

Over the past week, there have been revelations of a new boosting technique where players could rake in tens of thousands of points during a match by misusing the repair tool. We won’t go into details of the technique for obvious reasons, but it’s good to see EA and DICE taking quick and decisive action against cheaters and boosters."

This is great news

Impressive, bout time a company was proactive about removing the cheaters. Of course I figured it would be EA if anyone did. Another reason they are climbing back to the top provider.

"Do or do not there is no try!"

i do like it when developers actually listen to the community, and what would be nice is if they now release games with no bug or glitches, but i realise that this will be virtually impossible and congratulate all developers on there work, its kept me sane. and on that note i may have to crack open a game of minesweeper

Very nice. Everyone please take the time to report the suspected cheaters and boosters . THere is a sticky in the BF3 forums of where to report the players. It is the only offical area to report players

Good to see them being bought down!

You cannot talk yourself out of trouble you walked right into![color=green][/color]

Now if they would fix the console and game modes to avoid boosting it would be nice.  I won't go into detail but In BF2 there were certain server/gameplay settings that were fixed as soon as you set Ranked.  That does not appear to be the case on BF3 and they can be easily abused.
