  • ReWASD causing bans in Battlefield 6 even with Compatibility mode turned on.

    Title is the post, using the most recent version of ReWASD with compatibility mode turned on and I received an email from EA earlier today stating that my account has been suspended from online access for cheating. This is mainly a warning to anyone who uses this software to turn it off and uninstall before you get banned yourself.

        I got a permaban notice today for "using unauthorized methods to enhance in-game performance by removing gameplay constraints or improving in-game abilities". To be fair, they haven't said what I did wrong exactly, but seeing these reports (also on Reddit), I suspect it's because I've Rewasd installed (latest version, compatibility mode on). I wasn't even using it with BF6.

        I've lodged an appeal with them and see how it goes. Will update here. To the others: Have you tried appealing and what did they say?

        rewasd team: is there any kind of support or advice you can offer in such a case?

          I can't recommend anything other than contacting EA support.
          We're currently trying to determine the exact reason for the ban.​

            I also got perma banned, while I had rewasd installed but didn't use it in BF6 since it didn't work right for me.

              Good afternoon, I was also banned as of last night around 11pm (UK time). I have submitted an appeal, but the only thing I can thing of that may have triggered the ban is rewasd. I followed all the recommended steps and had mappings turned off when playing Battlefield (I mostly only use it for game pass games with a ps4 controller), but I currently have a permanent ban for cheating. I have filed an appeal and also have requested my data to see if anything is in there, but there has been no progress yet.

                I got banned too. I received an email last night and I was like, huh? I have had ReWASD installed for a few months, and nearly 100hrs in BF6 and this happened. Nightmare. Hopefully this can all be resolved. Crap thing for me, is I am a playtester for EA, so I am unsure how this affects me in that aspect.

                  Just happened to me as well, not cool I thought this compatibility mode was legit. So effin sad right now. I was so into BF6. I use reWASD to map PS move controller as the keyboard. FML

                    From what I understand about permabans with EA, its permanent and appeals don;t work. I also appealed it but don't expect them to reverse it.

                      I've also been banned, using rewasd in compatibility mode (I use the PS move controller for work)

                        I noticed that there is quite a few people that it seems to be happening to, even looking at reddit, steam and the EA official forums. Hope this gets all sorted.
