• Not recommended Posted July 21, 2025 on Steam Operations are literally unplayable with this amount of obvious cheaters. Nearly everyone on the scoreboard is cheating. People can aim at your head through walls and still play games. Bans are just an imagination. No one is getting them. And all of this with KERNEL LEVEL ANTICHEAT. If ur spying on us, atleast make it worth it.
• Not recommended Posted September 24, 2025 on Steam DISCLAIMER: THIS REVIEW IS LONG AS A MF BUT I AM TRYING TO GIVE PEOPLE A REALISTIC IDEA OF THE GAME OVERALL AND ESPECIALLY IN ITS CURRENT STATE. This is a Chinese developed game. They do not care about their North American players at all. This game is full of cheaters. They push out numbers of cheaters "banned" every month or so, but it is a lie. Some cheaters get banned and are back on the game 3 days later. Their battle passes are capped so that you can only progress on THEIR timeline. So you pay 5-10 bucks, and they control how you are able to use what you purchased. Servers are a joke. My team and I are all east coast and we constantly get thrown into west coast lobbies with 100+ latency. It is not because the game spent too much time searching for an east coast lobby, it is just because they don't have it optimized at all to prioritize the servers nearest to you. The newest season has shown enough that they should have disabled the new operator "Raptor" and reworked his abilities immediately, but again, they do not care (that point cannot be emphasized enough). This game's Operations mode is impossible to play solo unless you are one of those people that can't talk to other humans because of the covid days. 3 stacking is the only way to make money, collect good gear/guns, and be confident enough to explore all of the maps, but then when you want to explore the more difficult maps, you will run in to a chinese gamertag that is blatantly cheating, and they will not get banned. Streamers also have a different "folder" for lack of better word where reports against them go, they are given all the grace in the world so that they can keep marketing this game to viewers. I have played this game since it launched in December of last year and it has only gotten worse. I have done everything in this game, I have enough money on hand that I would never have to worry about running out for as long as I play but it just is not worth the frustration of dying to someone that pays money for cheats while you lose what you actually worked for. It is really bad, and this current season is the worst I have seen at a season launch since the game came out. I want it to be known that I have taken videos of blatant cheating and sent them to the Delta Force "security" team, and those reports came back saying the player was not cheating. The only players I have gotten banned were North American names. I have NEVER gotten a Chinese named player banned. I know that it not the case across the board, that is just MY experience with them. I will say, when you do get into a lobby that does not have a hacker in it, this game is awesome, but those raids are few and far in between. Last thing I will touch on is the World chat. It is the most disgusting chat out there. You can call me soft or whatever you want. I am an adult that does not care to read comments made by degenerates. There is no way to turn off the World chat, all you can do is toggle to your "private chat" section and leave it there, but it does not stay on that filter for very long and you are right back to reading about femboys, fent lovers, racists, insane social/political preferences, etc. They don't filter this because.....yep you guessed it, THEY DO NOT CARE. I genuinely hope this review helps people in their decision to play. Sorry for the Harry Potter Novel but I feel like most reviews don't quite capture the magnitude of the sh*t show that is Delta Force. ARC Raiders comes out soon, so there is hope for us extraction shooter enjoyers yet. For those that stuck thru this, I appreciate your time. For those that read this and proceed to play the game with high hopes, may god have mercy on your soul, I will pray for you.
• Not recommended Posted October 14, 2025 on Steam After 1.000 hours of playing Delta Force i can talk to you about my experience. I have never in my life experienced a game with such an amount of cheaters running and destroying games freely while no one cares about it. No matter the reports no one bothers and no actions taken (trust me it's more than obvious when someone is tracking you behind a wall or aimboting you). Being completely honest, i can't remember A SINGLE day i didn't run into a cheater, it's just absurd. And wanna know what the best part is? There are no HDW bans and out of all the hundreds of reports, only 2 of the cheaters got banned but came back after a week. There is literaly no reason to not cheat in this ♥♥♥♥ when the worst you can get is a 7 week ban, it's just insane how ♥♥♥♥ it is. Please don't bother wasting your time and money on this, it's more than NOT worth it.
• Not recommended Posted August 12, 2025 on Steam The game installs kernel level anticheat without telling you (you just click yes for admin rights). After game uninstall, the game DOES NOT remove the kernel level anticheat. I can see all the files in C:\Program Files\AntiCheatExpert and all the services (AnticheatExpert Protection, AnticheatExpert Service) still in my pc. DO NOT INSTALL THIS GAME. I've seen the devs responded to other reviews, would love to see them respond to this and see them make excuses for why they're leaving kernel level services active in my pc. Anticheat expert was installed on my pc with this game, I don't play any other game that has this, the uninstall should have removed everything it installed, especially kernel level stuff.
• Not recommended Posted December 1, 2025 on Steam [h1] Save your SSD and your Sanity. [/h1] I really wanted to like this game. Visually, it’s fine. Gunplay is decent. But I cannot in good conscience recommend Delta Force to anyone who values their PC's health or their mental peace. [h2] The "ACE" Anti-Cheat is Malware. [/h2] This game forces you to install Tencent's "Anti-Cheat Expert" (ACE). This isn't your standard anti-cheat. It is a kernel-level driver that buries itself deep into your system. It runs in the background, scans your SSD content repeatedly until it breaks. It is nearly impossible to uninstall. Uninstalling the game leaves ACE behind. You have to manually edit the registry and run CMD commands just to scrub it off your drive. Hardware Damage: The constant, aggressive scanning and read/write operations punish your SSD unnecessarily. I've noticed significant performance degradation and drive health issues since installing this, even when I am playing other games. It feels less like game security and more like spyware. [b] And worst thing of all... It doesn't even stop cheaters. [/b] You sacrifice your system's security for absolutely nothing. The game is infested. Wallhacks and aimbots are ubiquitous. You are handing over kernel access to a company that can't even stop a script kiddy with a free trial hack. [h2] The Gameplay Loop is Broken [/h2] The developers have completely destroyed the "Search, Fight, Extract" core of the genre. If you are a decent player, the hidden matchmaking punishes you. You get thrown into "High Pressure" lobbies where every opponent is either a cheater or is just has better technique, but—and here is the kicker—the searching part feel WORSE. You risk expensive gear for literally nothing. Meanwhile, lower-skilled players get protected, low-pressure lobbies where high-value loot seems to spawn more frequently to "hook" them in. It leads to the ultimate Extraction Shooter paradox: [b] You can't Search: Because the loot density for skilled players is nerfed. [/b] [b] You can't Fight: Because you are fighting Rage-hackers or ACE-bypassing aimbots. [/b] [b] You can't Extract: Because the game design ensures you lose the attrition war. [/b] To make matters worse, the dev team is arrogant and dismissive. They do not care about the legit player base, only engagement metrics. [b]Do not install. The gameplay isn't worth the hardware risk or the frustration.[/b]
