If you’re like me, you’re getting a little frustrated with EA’s most recent mega-shooter, Battlefield 3. The game is rife with glitches, and although it’s still an incredible online gaming experience, there’s enough cheating, clipping, and interface problems to make me want to hang up my assault rifle for good (or, god forbid, go over to that other mega-shooter…). My frustration, however, abated a bit when I read the recent news that  BF3 developed DICE has hired an anti-cheating expert specifically to address its cheating issues with online play.

Reported on Gamespot yesterday, Dice has recently creted a position in their studio that is wholly concerned with counter-cheater measures in both current and future titles. If you’ve recently picked up the Multiplayer game, you will notice that many players on XBLA use clipping to crawl beneath the actual level, use modded consoles or trigger switches to “lag out”. Cheating is even more prevalent in the PC version of the game (which is always the case). There’s nothing more frustrating than spawning with your team and immediately being killed by some douchebag spawn camping beneath the floor. Bullets pour out of a rock and you sit, staring at your screen, and watching the spawn counter tick down so it can happen all over again.
