Is there a stupid third party program that lets survivors see which killer I'm playing?
I see 4 survivors entering my lobby, where I have 32 ping as killer
They're a swf, because they all entered the same time.
They get out, then since there is no other killer they re-enter my lobby, and they quit the lobby again, 2/3 or a lot more times.
Then the lobby suddenly closes, with a message of an "unexpected situation", like if the anti cheat found a third party software or something else (bug?)
WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON WITH SURVIVORS DODGING LOBBIES AND "KNOWING" THAT IT'S YOU PLAYING TWINS, SPIRIT OR WHATEVER?

Nothing that I have heard of atleast.

I think there used to be something like this. People would often use it to dodge Spirit lobbies. I'm unsure if that's still a thing though.

I think I remember something like this a long time ago...but that had been patched out I believe. My memory is not that great so take this with a grain of salt.

Yeah, there's a program that does that. It hasn't worked in over half a year though.

I've heard of different methods in the past, but Idk what's going on with those presently. I doubt most people would be using something like that though. Unless they're super sweaty, in which case you never know.

But they magically "know" that it's me, so it can't be just magic intuition

I would guess that they're getting connected to a "bad" server (i.e.: high ping), which is why they're dodging, and has nothing to do with you.

Like orion said, they are probably getting connected to a high ping server and they just dodge. There was a program that did that, but it doesn't work anymore

Might just be the "bot" accounts from brazil, check the accounts before they leave the lobby

That's just oddly specific. What would Brazilian bot accounts be doing in Italy anyway?

I know it was possible but i dont know if it still works.

They are already in regions that isn't brazil, I see them on U.S. servers so its not impossible for them to be in more places, as far as I know they either go between joining lobbies as swfs then 3 leave and 1 waits until 3 more survivors join then leave, or just as solo queue wait for the timer to go down to like ~10 seconds then leave, they are just here to clog up the queue

USA is relatively close and, at least, is in the western hemisphere. Italy isn't on either hemisphere as Brazil. There's really no comparison here.
My guess is, what you call "bots" are just suffering from the same problem as these survivors: they're connected to servers that are too far away, so they leave and rejoin the queue.

Brazil has a lot of DbD player and the server is used by all of South America, so it gets full sometimes and player are redirected to other servers in that case. I swf with friends from Brazil often (I'm in the US) and I always join their lobbies so we go to their server since I'm the only one not in the region and I'm used to the high ping. However, there have been some occasions when I join their lobbies and we still end up in the NA server (I can tell it from my more regular ping and usually all players in those matches are SA players redirected to a a different region).

yea but there is a difference between getting matched with players from brazil and consistently seeming them queued as a 4 man swf with a clan tag join the lobby wait 50 seconds, 3 people leave, 3 new players join, wait 50 seconds, the last guy leaves
0 -
Its very possible they were trying to snipe some ones lobby as well
1 -
This is unrelated, but I thought all survivors entered the lobby at the same time now, when they made some sort of matchmaking change. I thought that had been a thing for a long while.

If you're playing brown ranks it still reveals who the killer is each game in the hints until you reach yellow rank. Lot of swfs use a brown rank just for this. Why you complaining, killer knows what survivors and items are being brought in, only fair that survivors know who the killer is, and should be a permanent option honestly.
