Subtle speed hack use?
As a survivor / killer player I wonder if some players do use some form of speed hack just enough to gain an unfair advantage but without being detected.
As a survivor, I dont feel that my looping attempts last that long as I see some survivors do. Looping around good pallets usually last 2-3 rounds but some survivors do manage to run around without dropping the pallet for 5 - 6 rounds.
I also just played against a fast Myers, without using perks that affects movement speed. It was fast but not absurdly fast.
Therefore I wonder how many players do use a speed hack in a way that avoids detection but enough to unbalance the game.
Other use of speed hacks is when a survivor is downed. Rarely, some of them craw at abnormal speeds, making it hard to grab them.

That’s what a lot do. They try to hide it. You can normally tell when something is off though, or eventually if you manage a few hits the hackers will go turbo.
I’d imagine its only going to be rare circumstances you see a hacker. For the most part those are either likely good loopers or maybe latency plays a part too.

Yeah, there are a lot of hackers nowadays in this game.
I sometimes see Trappers with a little Speedhack so they can say that Trapper is just super fast.
My friend and I have just played against a Trapper with a little bit of Speedhack and then we tried in a custom game to check if the Trapper was as fast as that other one or if he was hacking and my friend's Trapper was slower.
That Trapper wasn't running Play with your Food or stuff like that.

Make sure to check for perks and attaching video evidence including the post-match chat to the report if you find it suspicous.

I've seen it before. A Myers I didn't suspect was up to anything until I tried unhooking a friend-- dude was in tier 3, with no speed perks. I heard his terror radius for about 3 seconds before he was right on top of us-- and looking at his perks and addons, there was no way he could have possibly closed the distance that fast.
And then at the end, I confirmed it by seeing him #########' zip up a staircase to get me at a way too fast speed.
