An anti cheat system will never be able to catch all cases of gameplay related misbehavior, and tech evolves on both sides, never on a stand still. This makes player reports so important and valuable.
Yes, the process with server replay reports is cumbersome, but if you have a better idea, I’m sure they will be happy to hear the suggestion…

So since I play on PS5 tell me can you start Warthunder on PC without installing easy anti-cheat?
Hope you dont get offended, but cheating is Gajin problem not problem of players who dont cheat. Maybe in 12 years work on better anti cheat system since this easy anti cheat is not it, I had guy just standing on his spawn and shooting and killing everyone…If easy anticheat cant catch that then its not good…
Also Gaijin should be buying or at least have someone as a mole in these discords where they sell cheats so they can be one step ahaed…
But then again I just wanna play game fairly, I dont cheat I dont wanna waste my time going thru replays and this and that, hope you can understand that…
when I play fortnite I just play it, if I need to repeort someone I just use simple easy report system in game
same with COD and other games…
I just wanna play the game and not be a fodder for cheaters who are lvl 20-50 and have 1death and 10 kills average in their stats only on premium tanks…
Like I hope you van understand not all of us have time to play game, watch replay and report.

Yes, but you wont be able to play a lot of the game modes as EAC is required for most of them (i currently sadly can’t remember which game modes they are).
Yeah I googled it and just fact you can play Arcade battles without it but cant play Realistic and Sim is bad, since I can already see how they can exploit that…IMPO you would not be able to start game without EC being on…only way…or have anti cheat on servers so that preformance of the game is not compromised for people with not so powerful PCs…
IIRC Easy anti cheat is automatically updated every time you start the game. EAC does not publicly share when and how it is updated.
…and Fortnite uses the same EAC anti cheat system as WT, btw.
Personal note/assumption (so possibly false): One could argue though that Fortnite is a quite simpler game than WT if it comes to content, tactics, aspects, game modes, units, etc. and never reaches the complexity of WT. It thus lacks a lot of the gameplay-intrinsic possibilities WT has where a player could abuse the system to gain an unfair advantage.
In the case of WT, each case has to be looked at in detail to determine if a player indeed broke a rule or was just using his vehicle and the situation in an optimal way. For the “victim” this may often look similar. (Note: This doesn’t mean that there aren’t pretty obvious cases as well - but also those need to be found and sorted from the other cases…)

I agree but sitting at the spawn and shooting to toher side, one shotting everyone, when you cant see them in any way shape of form, since theres hills, buildings and trees in front should be sooo simple…
also anti cheat should be able to detect walling and aimbot without me going thru replay…like it should detect another program running and guy aiming and following people thru terrain…
I know its not same game and WT is much more complex, but rules of physics are simple…
I get you can aim over some hills, rocks with comander sight, and I get that, but following me thru terrain or shooting in air and hitting other side of map exactly at right spot while Im moving cant be undetected…12 years of data, 12 years… so many crazy things happen in game…you have all that data…and you still need to go thru every single report…
No way you can beat cheaters, like I completly understand…
lol . . . I am not . . . I am a player, that is all

Please use English.
why was my publication hidden? I want to know what I said wrong? It seems to me that I was fair and told the truth, I didn’t lie and I didn’t insult anyone. What should I write in the forum? It gives me the impression that free expression is prohibited in the forum by the human right to say what he feels, I cannot send flowers to the forum, by blocking my message I feel offended and condemned by the forum not to write what I feel. I’m sorry but it gives me the IMPRESSION that here in the forum people are very nice and sensitive, I DIDN’T SAY ANYTHING BAD, why don’t the people in the forum accept the truth of the players as what really happens in the game, I personally can’t say that in WT everything is perfect, I’ve been playing since 2013 and I’ve also suffered stress due to game problems and nerves due to those who use hacks, I’m fair and I don’t give flowers to anyone, I’m telling the TRUTH. THAT’S IT, MANY TIMES THE TRUTH ATTACKS THOSE WHO DON’T WANT TO BE ATTACKED. PLEASE TELL ME WHAT I SHOULD SAY IN THIS FORUM, I KNOW THEY ARE DISCUSSING PROBLEMS THAT HAPPEN IN THE GAME. SORRY. I am roman español and I don’t know English.
