Speed Hacks

Apparently a speed hack will also affect the Lobby timer. Just had a match where the guy was speedhacking, a Wraith, and our Lobby timer ticked down instantly. All 4 of us loaded in, I asked if MacMillan was okay since I was burning an offering for it, we didn't even have time to talk about it before the timer ticked down and the match started.

If you have a timer do this in the Lobby, just D/C. It's a speedhacker. No clue why noone is doing anything about this since it's a damn obvious issue, but apparently this is acceptable behavior. There is nowhere to report this, even if you have video evidence. 2nd match today that I have encountered a speedhacker, both times a Wraith, different names though and different loadouts. This is actually only the 4th time I've encountered a hacker, so apparently the new lack of being able to report them is causing an issue.

    They should focus on banning Zekeo first. He literally posts hacking tutorials on YouTube but the devs don't do anything

    I wouldn't post a video here. It should be sent to the Developers with a report form, but there's nowhere to do that anymore. Have no options anymore but the in-game report which does nothing anyway.

    I just had a game where the timer started counting down SUPER fast. I got out before it started though, so I can't confirm if a speed-hacker was involved.

    Makes sense the hacks would do this because it requires time in the lobby (I believe around 40 seconds) to detect a hack being used and boot someone. Faster lobby means no detection.

    If this is a real thing, I'm going to be watching my lobby timers from now on.
