More Hackers lately?

I have had two games in the past two games with Hackers. Anyone else starting to see this more than usual? Like more out in the open and not even hiding?

    I met maybe 4 hackers in 4.2k hrs (2 of them lagswitchers, 1 speedhacker and 1 invincible Nea) over the past 3 years, although I think I missed some subtle ones. Maybe I'm just lucky, but I see that many content creators face a lot more hackers recently.

    I have legit had a Dave and a Steve. Steve today and Dave yesterday. Just didn't even try to hide it. Dave started the game normally. When he failed the blind, I went a different route and ZOOM! There he went crouching like Sonic. The Steve just didn't even hide it. Got knocked down and boom was back up and unhook the person before my chainsaw finished its animation cool down. XD. Needless to say I just sat in the basement and watched TV until they got bored.

    Luckily my experience was a bit weirder but shorter. The hacking Nea had a David accomplice, both were from Windows Store back when WS was the only other platform you could crossplay with and both had the crossplay icon. That Nea hat Legacy 3 (which is impossible on WS), had no collision, could fly, had infinite flashlight, could insta heal and prevent hooks. They also ddos'ed the server (it was so laggy at the offering screen), started EGC at 5 gens left and escaped before instantly ending EGC so me and my teammate just died. They instantly changed their names so you couldn't find them anymore. The match maybe lasted 3min and 1 of them was me realising that they were cheating.

    Looking back to it, i think they were steam players who had a cheat to appear as WS players, so you couldn't report them properly via support ticket.
