ANYONE KNOW IF THIS IS ACTUALLY POSSIBLE

Just finished a killer game on fractured cowshed. The survivors managed to get all 5 gens done in exactly 3 minutes and 12 seconds.

Game started and 3 were on a gen, instantly went over to defend and they dispersed. Got in chase with a dwight and after wasting a few pallets i dropped chase to go defend the gen which 1 survivor was working on.

After chasing them off and kicking the gen i was then in chase with a survivor at nearly all time with multiple times having eyes on 2 survivors at a time.

At 3 mins and 12 seconds into the match the last generator popped and thats when I got super suspicious about it as given that I nearly always had eyes on 1 or 2 survivors at a time.

These are the perks that the survivors were running and as you can see the only gen perk was a single proove thyself.

Looking for input from anyone who could shed some light on if given the situation it would have been possible to crank out all 5 gens in 3 mins and 12 seconds.

    without perks, a single gen takes 90 seconds. 3 survivors working in parallel can finish 3 gens and then migrate to another batch of gens for another 90 seconds. That is not the optimal setup but by no means far from ideal when considering the time wasted moving around. And that is really tight.

    That looks like an acute case of Cheatitis Subtletis IMO.

    Not saying that it definitely didn't happen, but the points achieved from both sides doesn't match up with the length of the game at all.

    The first three gens could pop in 90 seconds, with the next 2 popping in 90 more seconds. That's 3 minutes. You could shave off a few seconds if we assume that they only hit great skill checks, but then you also need to add in some travel time in between gens. Also, if you were kicking gens, that means they have to stop progress, lose a little for the kick and regression, and then get back on, so that should add time.

    Out of curiosity I checked the dbd speed runs, and the fastest a swf got gens done and a door open was 2m 47s. That was with all 4 brining stacked toolboxes with bnps. I have a hard time believing a group with no toolboxes & only one gen perk (that is actually less time efficient than just doing gens alone) was only 25 seconds slower. The fast time someone has for a solo escape has the gens getting done in 3m 46s (and at least one person had a stacked toolbox with a bnp).

    They didnt say the game lasted 3 min 12 sec just that thats when the gens got done.

    As to OPs question is it possible?

    The answer is yes it is possible, but the efficiently level required makes it highly improbable, but would need to review a recording of the match to really know for sure.

    It's definitely possible. Sounds to me like 2 gens popped in 90. The gen you kicked was almost done and someone got on and finished as soon as you left it. Resulting in popping not long later. Then the prove thyself was used to pop the last 2 gens quickly.

    Side note:

    As a tip give you don't have any gen kicking perks, you shouldn't stop to kick gens if you don't have any equipped. In the time that you path to the gen and kick it the survivor can get enough distance hold W to basically wherever they want unless you got them stuck in a corner. All for what, to regress the gen 2% + .27%/second its regressing?

    Even if it regresses for 30 seconds thats 9-10 seconds of regression. Youll lose way more than that in chase time.

    I'm more than aware that OP never mentioned how long the game is overall, my point is if that if the game went into endgame that quickly I doubt all four of the survivors got that much points. There would've had to have been one or two with a very low amount of points for me to believe it.

    The game its self went on for an aditional 5 min because i wanted at least some points for the game. Given that i was gen rushed into oblivion i decided to do the killer equivilant and camp out the hook XD resulted in a nice 2k and points for me.

    I'm not really upset or angry that this happened more concerned. As you see I don't run gen regression perks (beacause i find them boring to use) so i really only stop to kick gens if 1. i'm next to it when i down a survivor, 2. i'm already at the gen when i have nothing else going on (i.e no survivors near by) or 3. in a 3 gen situation.

    I've never had this issue in the past to this extreme before as usually I can control the match by applying massive pressure on constant downs or chases.

    So for clarification the Gen i kicked was at about 75% and it was was the 4th gen to pop overall as the survivors left it so likely it regressed to 25% or lower.

    Now it could be that 3 of them split on gens whilst 1 got chased. The team was very good in chase and clearly knew what they were doing so not doubting the skill of the survivors in that respect but what triggered alarm bells was how fast the last 4 gens popped.

    I looked at the timings and this is the times the gens popped

    Gen 1 - 1 min 59 seconds

    Gen 2 - 14 seconds after Gen 1

    Gen 3 - 32 seconds after Gen 2

    Gen 4 - 22 seconds after Gen 3

    Gen 5 - 5 seconds after Gen 4

    Looking back over the game there was a period of 58 seconds where I didn't have eyes on any survivor. It was during this time I kicked the gen at 75%. This could account for all 4 survivors being on seperate gens i guess which could lead to some clarity as to how this happened.

    I mean if nothing else this game alone just goes to show that even with the gens taking 90 seconds now its still kinda survivor sided if the killer loses track of survivors.

    100% agree because you can't ever proove it. but as i said in a past reply not saying these were cheaters just super sus.

    Crazy good efficiency on the survivors team part for sure if it's legit

    If I saw the video, I could definitely make a more definitive answer about whether it's humanly possible

    but if for most or the entirety of that 58 seconds you weren't chasing anyone, all 4 were doing gens I can see it happening for sure.


    It's unfortunate that cheating is so common that what might be a pretty incredible feat on the survivors part we have to overanalyze and think about whether it was legit.

    Yeah cheaters have ruined this game for sure in terms of recognising skilled players.

    If i can get the video uploaded tonight ill post if on here but ill edit it down to start of game to final gen popping because who wants to watch me camp for 5 mins getting a 2k XD

    And yeah i camped hard because of the gen rush i had nothing better to do lol.
