I get some matches latly where the killer seems to cheat, like wallhack, because he knows where survivors are, even though they should not be able to (no perks, person has keept out of side, and stuff).

However, i just get out of the game and into the next, i dont even bother reporting them anymore, because i dont have a video anyway.

Do you still report without evidence, even though you know nothing will happen?

    I don't report either way

    Reporting without doing the big report sheet (including needing video evidence) takes so GD long that I just don't bother (and reporting without filling out the big report sheet we know goes right into the trash can so why even bother clicking the THUMBS DOWN Button?). I've got far better things to do than be a cop to a video game and I have no desire to spend 10+ minutes filling out paperwork. If I hit a cheater or whatever, GGEZ next game.

    As a killer main get accused of cheating all the time, I'm trying to p100 nurse with no add-ons or perks. There's a lot that gives survivor position away from sounds to scratch marks to just the environment moving a certain way. After a certain amount of time you also gain surv awareness, so you know where survs will be for the most part out of sheer matches played and what they tend to do what gens they'll spawn on, what loops they'll run to, places they'll heal etc consistently on certain maps. Not saying that they aren't cheating but wall hack cheaters are harder to prove than the speed, flying, teleporting, etc hackers. That being said i don't report cheaters anymore I used to religiously with vod and everything but nothing ever happened so i just stopped wasting my time, I just go to the next match, i really don't understand the need to cheat in this game at all but hell people will cheat in anything given the opportunity.

    I only report if I can definitively say they're using a wall hack (it's easy with Distortion - they'll make a beeline for you after hooking, to make you think they have BBQ, but obviously Distortion doesn't lose a token. Next time go to some dead end corner of the map near a completed gen and watch them again come straight to you, despite having no reason to be there. Check perks after game and they usually have that killer's basic perks or nothing).

    If I can't say for sure, only suspect, then I don't bother reporting. I was sus on an Oni yesterday but couldn't say for sure as I didn't have Distortion.

    Oh i get that, i got such accusations as a killer too, but after 6k+ hours, i think you can spot the difference.

    Absolutely not. The report system is too much work for something they might not even look at.

    I tried to report someone once and midway through the process I said "this just isn't worth the work" and closed the window and went back to the game

    BHVR doesn't have a good process on reporting. I don't get paid to do their job.
