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.

Ok so minor bugs are being fixed, but

Is anything ever going to be about the hackers? There has been a lot for a long time. Some of which i've seen multiple times in different videos, and have come across myself.

I've seen people get banned for silly things like sitting on a rock or glitching into a building/tree/wall(Sometimes not even on purpose,) but yet speed hackers and crap still run rampant. I main death slinger so I know what his movement speed feels like, but last night played one who was on freaking steroids zooming across the map in seconds like he was a freaking hillbilly. Like when are we going to get an actual anti cheat system going? I mean a few weeks ago watching a few of tru's videos with people running no mither, and lagging him anytime he tried to pick them up or hook so they always got to get back up and ruin the game.

    Yeah, the no mither lagswitching survivors are really annoying. Cant slug, cant hook, someone times catn even hit, because they use their lag tactically to teleport during chase. I have also seen survivor finish generators or totems seconds after I already smacked them into the dieing state, because they lag so much.

    They really need to add more serverside validations for player action. The developers are in the process of doing it for killer hits, but meanwhile survivor can still go full rambo with their lagswitching.

    Yeah... Most those "Lag Switchers" aren't actually lag switching, its just the game's terrible frames.

    Dude go watch trutalents videos on the lagswitching no mither users. Never lags at all till tru downed him, and tried to pick up many times throughout the match, and only when knocked down. It's happened a few times in his videos. Sorry but no what happened in those videos was pure lagswitch.

    As for the other post above. I didn't say the game was running rampant with hackers. I said are they going to do anything about the ones in the game currently.

    I've had some suspected run-ins with hackers since the update. Unsure if some were actually hacking or just lagging awfully as i'd be hit after the killer was stunned by a pallet(not them swinging through it, the animation going through and halfway through a quick swipe and i get hit).

    Another was a match where a survivor got them self up twice off the ground and this could be due to lag/perks BUT the really suspicious thing was the game freezing for a good minute without crashing, then resuming like normal. Also one survivor was making the missed skillcheck noise of being stabbed while no one was around them.
