PC Players are cheating through exploit.

In the last week I have encountered many players exploiting a clear bug. Survivors who have the UNBREAKABLE perk can recover from the dying state more than once. and within a few seconds. Some players can also be recovered to full health in a few seconds if they have a partially charged med kit. High rank players are using this exploit to cheat. So much for fair play by high ranking players.

    I understand those combos, but not instantly recovering 10 times in a match by one survivor. This has happened on many games now.

    In near 5 years of playing way, way more than the average player I've seen less than a handful of hackers, probably like 3.

    This makes me highly skeptical. We get a lot of players that came to these forums complaining of hackers when most of the time it's just a lack of knowledge in the game, ping related, or simply the killer getting lucky in his guesses.

    Like someone said already. It was a hacker.

    I wish that were true, but I've been playing this game since within the first month of the release on PC. It is clear when someone gets up within seconds of being downed, and it happens 10 times in a single chase something is a miss. Also when the same player gets to the gates that are open and purposely gets downed in front of the gates another 4 times after getting straight back up - I think I know what is realistic in the game and what is not. Nothing to do with lag, ping or occasional blip.

    2k hrs in the last year approx and I've seen one ragehacker and suspected one killer had ESP, I swear this isn't just a DBD thing though, every game I play people complain about cheaters pretty frequently and I just... don't get them
