Cheating issue

Sooooooo "It's been a while since I last made a post on here, but I feel like this one is needed. Today, I was only playing as the killer and got matched with 6 cheaters in one day. Now, I'm wondering if there are more cheaters, or if I'm the only one getting matched up with them, because I can't be the only one getting matched up with them."

    I also had some questionable encounters in the last 3 weeks. A lot of survivors that just seemed to be a little bit faster than they should be and with a yellow FL with no addons that was used to blind me like 15 times. But the thing with these super subtle things is that it might just be a you thing and people aren't cheating.

    But I also had like 3 blatant cheaters in these 3 weeks. One was a claudette that was just fishy af and where I was sure that she was subtle cheating. So I refused to unhook her which then made her Port around the entire map and point out every surv while the killer was working with her to kill us. Then in the end she just ported herself out.

    A Ripley with her SWF that I endgame camped and that then just flew out while still on hook, then crashed the Server so I didnt get any points and then added me on steam to boast about it.

    And another SWF member that got so mad that they lost that he crashed the Server and posted on my Profile how I like my 0 BP.

    Thing is I reported these 3 that were obvious but from what I can tell they are still normally playing DBD. Got the hacker that added me to boast still in my friendslist and he's still online every evening. The other 2 I checked after a while and they are also still playing normally. Just find it so weird that these things apparently dont get picked up by anticheat and that these people have to be reported so much that BHV manually looks into them. That also means that these Hackers are still in circulation so to say and that new ones will also start playing and that leads to encountering more and more of them.

    So yeah your not alone. Happens more and more again unfortunately now that the big crackdown on Hackers that the devs did has slowly worn off.

    Imagine a dead by daylight where cheaters have a hard time, kappa :D

    Will never happen though.

    There has been no proper server validation for 7 years, nothing happens, the topic is avoided as much as possible.

    What is important are 45 different Feng skins and with this community there is also a lot of revenue on this.

    In summary, you have to accept it or change the game, I can assure you if nothing has changed in 7 years nothing will change in the future.

    Sadly, that's true. But of course you also need people who will buy everything and get ripped off.

    Diablo Immortal and overall p2w mobile games in China are not too successful for nothing. It takes the right understanding of today's gamer persona for this to work.
