When will dbd receive a better form of anti cheat?
Currently modders/script kiddies run a muck in the game, ruining the fun for both streamers and normal players. In fact, there's a twitch streamer who currently plays with cheaters.

the most embarrassing thing for BHVR and definitely most concerning is that these people who are obviously scripting and messing up with jconfig to gain true advantage (and are even recording themselves doing that) are literally not even hiding their names in many cases. That truly shows how terrible anti cheat system in this game is and how easily accessible and edible core game files are.

There are games that do a good job of keeping cheaters at bay.
A massive problem is that there is virtually no server side validation in Dead by Daylight. And this in a PvP game for 7 years. Nobody can tell me that this couldn't have been implemented in that time.
Skins, DLC's generate money. Good cheat protection software doesn't do that.
As long as players spend thousands of dollars on skins, this will continue to be the main priority.As simple as that.

The video is 5 months old, so I dont know how much "currently" means.
However, cheating is, has always been and will always be an arms race. Currently there are more cheaters than usual, most likely they found another way to cheat (or to be more precise the creators of the cheating software found another way) and BHVR will fix this at some point. And then they will look for the next thing to cheat.
And this is not only a DBD-thing, this happens in every game. Every game, regardless how big it is, has cheaters. Switchting to another form of Anti-Cheat will not change that.

Is annoying how the mere existence of these people eats up so much dev time that could be so much better used elsewhere.

Server-side validation would indeed solve the vast majority of issues.
