DICE will soon be rolling out some changes to the graphically enhanced shooter. First off, the banhammer comes down hard for hundreds of cheaters exploiting an invincibility glitch that allowed massive amounts of points to be accumulated in a single game:
Stat-wipes are also being handed out for other exploits.
In possible tweak news, flashlights will be receiving a distance nerf; its blinding ability however, will still be powerful, but at shorter ranges. DICE may also introduce a form of repair ability for jets and helicopters as it is currently believed that AA forces are too strong.

they need to make it where you cant blind your own teammates!!!!!!!!!!!
I don’t think they should ban people who exploit bugs in their game. Hacks sure, but a bug is their fault really.
Agreed. Bug exploits, they should fix those, not ban people. Stat wipe for them as a punishment is acceptable though.
As for flashlights…am I the only one who likes them? It’s like… “OOH SHOOT AT THE LIGHT! +1 kill”.
I agree with Atrum…they shouldn’t be banned for the exploit, but stat wiping sounds like a fair punishment. I like the flashlights, but I think it’s good to reduce the distance…it’s pretty ridiculous how far it can be and still blind people.
