Less than a week after its beta launch, Battlefield 2042 from EA and DICE is currently one of the most popular games. With that being said, DICE is already strengthening its anti-cheat program to prevent cheaters from loitering on the platform, banning them as soon as they are reported. Users have already started getting their accounts banned because they violated Battlefield 2042’s user agreement by cheating in any shape or form. This includes users who got banned for no apparent reason, which is a call for concern for many.

Users are reporting Battlefield 2042 account is getting banned
A fellow user reported that his account was banned after signing up for Origin for the first time and buying the game from Steam.
According to an official post by DICE, it has strengthened its walls against cheaters and abusers. It uses an Easy Anti-Cheat (EAC) program to capture cheaters and abusers and permanently ban them from the platform. This means that you could play Battlefield 2042 (or other EA games in severe cases) if your account is banned permanently.
The post further reads that the EAC program is active in the beta version as well as the upcoming stable version as well. Since Battlefield 2042 supports cross-play functionality, banned users won’t be able to play on other devices. For example, if they were originally on PC, they won’t be able to play Battlefield 2042 on Xbox One or other consoles as well. Plus, bans could be initiated all of a sudden and without any prior notice thanks to the excellent zero-tolerance policy from EA.
