I might have played against them before if its possible I've seen some iffy stuff but this is dbd but this last match this survivors w power seemed a little much. I'm not sure if you can even run into them on console.

    They will face hacker only of they play with crossplay on. Anyway console player get ######### enough by bhvr they dont need the hacker to enter the mix as well XD

    Yes, I ran into a super blatant one (or 2). Not sure if the person in his group was actively hacking or if he was just healing them up too. It can happen, though.

    Yes. Before crossplay was even a thing there were videos of players with legacy skin on console - can only be there if hacked.

    Ok because I couldn't catch this player at all even hit BL1 and didn't help thats when I left the chase. It wasn't SB fast but they seemed a bit faster than normal

    Yes we do, I played with someone who walked through the exit gates & left 2 minutes into the game.

    There are a LOT of PC cheaters, and you will run into them if you have cross play off. All PC players need to be on their own servers cause there are a lot of cheats, cause it's easy to do on PC and there's no such thing as anti cheat. The game is in a bad state cause if this.

    PS4 player here. I had a hacker on Ormond who kept himself alive past the Endgame Collapse, holding the Killer hostage and forcing them to quit since they wouldn’t die.

    I also was conveniently spectating a hacker who insta-healed himself while nobody was looking. It’s crazy that some people can literally cheat and no one will even know.

    The amount of streamers that record people doing it is actually insane. I don't know to many games were its so blatant

    Otherwise, potentially, but it's less likely i think

    I had someone just vanish shortly after being unhooked. Only 1 generator had been done and all 4 survivors were still alive.

    I saw the survivor moving really fast across the map and started recording the match. I grabbed them off a generator the survivor was working on. I doubt I would have been able to hook them if I hadn't hooked them.

    Almost immediately after the survivor was unhooked the status info on the lower right showed they had escaped through either the exit gates or the hatch. The survivor however could be seen running really fast from me for several seconds before they disappeared right in front of me. I have never seen anything like it before.

    Below is the video. Curious if you or anyone else have seen anything like this before.

    3 cases:

    • Lagswitcher: yes, both from console and PC
    • Glitch: Lithe caused unlimited speed boost
    • Other platform may not mean console, it's also from Windows Store
