Kill Switch update: We have temporarily Kill Switched the Forgotten Ruins Map due to an issue that causes players to become stuck in place. The Map will remain out of rotation until this is resolved.

    It's easy to say that nobody should lobby dodge because of (suspected) SWF, but new killers soon realise the correlation between 4 survivors dropping into the lobby at the same time and the likelyhood of a near-impossible game.

    SWFs using comms to relay information is cheating. If a killer was hacking or lag switching, nobody would be telling the survivors to Git Gud.

    Your comment is amazing. You think using comms is cheating. LOL. Well, according to your logic, which completely ignores the fact that using comms is not against the rules, then surely nodding your head is cheating? Is pointing cheating?

    Tell me.

    Can we look at this from a objective standpoint.
    Cheating is when you use a non-whitelisted 3rd party program to gain an ingame advantage. This implies that several programs are ok to use, for example the built in playstation voice chat or a similar thing on steam (even though noone uses it). Also Curse is a whitelisted program.
    However the usage of discord or teamspeak is THEORETICALLY bannable.

    In reality you cant get banned for it since the devs have no tools to detect such software (or no intent), but that applies to MLGA too.......

    If it was bannable, the devs would have done something about Ochido but the only times he got banned, was something for being too toxic. I don't think it should be bannable and I don't even TRY to use them.
