During my gameplay of BF I have only run into a hacker once to which he was reported multiple times with EA emailing me into letting me know they took action (which hardly any other client does). The number count is so low because it's a very casual shooter without a server browser, gun balance is pretty borked and more people are sporting jump jets with bow casters, DL-44's with the bounty trait card. Did I forget to mention just how important a server browser is for a MP PC game?, because it really is regardless of thinking it's not.
However that doesn't mean PC gaming sucks with shooters, it just sucks with that one shooter due to a company not putting all that effort into making it decent. The game looks and sounds decent but the gameplay is lacking along with the balance and lack of features related to PC, when you lack those features you lack enough followers, same thing is happening with MKX now WB/NRS have decided to drop their mess.
Also CS:GO is more popular than BF is ever likely to be in that market, same with TF2 and Planetside 2. THe fact EA wants me to drop another £40 for DLC that's not even out yet with no server browser fills me with no confidence and just makes me want to go back to Planetside 2 insetad, at least in that game the world is persistent, battles are huge, weapons and vehicles are plenty with no need for star card crap.
Step right up come on in, feel the buzz in your veins, I'm like an chemical electrical right into your brain and I'm the one who killed the Radio, soon you'll all see
So pay up motherfuckers you belong to "V"
