"EA announced yesterday via its Battlefield 3 Twitter account, that they have successfully caught and banned “hundreds of offending accounts” and have also wiped many of those accounts which have been caught “boosting”. Boosting basically involves using an exploit in the game to artificially level up your account instead of doing it through genuine gameplay.Boosting was present throughout the BF3 beta, although obviously with it being a beta was not of great concern. Unfortunately the same exploit was found with the current retail version of the game allowing users to gain tens of thousands of points during a single match.EA have said that they will continue to monitor account activity and actively ban those who are found to be breaching the game’s terms of service."
Ho ho! It seems EA removing some damn hackers. But sadly, their method is not effective at eradicating every hacker in BF3. It seems that they found a loophole for their hacking tools!
