Electronic Arts banned several accounts this weekend for exploiting an experience loophole in Battlefield 3.

"This week we've banned hundreds of offending accounts and have stats-wiped accounts for exploiting (such as boosting)," EA wrote on Twitter. "We are working on banning as many people as we can as quickly as we can. We have a zero tolerance policy for cheating."

The exploit in question lets friends team up to infinitely repair a friendly bot while playing as Engineers in a hardcore match. EA confirmed that a patch to eliminate the exploit is currently being worked on and will be "coming soon."
