Why is BHVR not doing anything about the hacking problem in DBD?
The mods can come in here and say "oh we're actively looking for a solution" "oh we're trying our best". No you're not. Stop lying to us, and to yourselves. If people can stream live on Twitch hacking and not receive bans, then clearly they just DO NOT care about anything than the money they make from us.
IT'S INFURIATING!

At this speed through the years they're selling so many trainers that at one point they will be able to develop themselves a better game than DBD

Money.

Not enough time to do it maybe?

Because the hackers can unban themselves, or hide their steam ID/cloud ID and prevent themselves from getting banned in the first place. That's the consequence of a cheap anti-cheat system - it's easy to bypass, and so you get more hackers.

I Don't think defending hackers is exclusive to dbd. Tf2 is probably the only game i have ever played where everybody actively hates hackers and votekicks them anytime they're noticed. But most other games i've seen people take the free W hackers give them to boost their own ego, thats simply just how gamers are. BHVR likely isn't addressing the issue because they don't think its a problem yet, despite the fact its becoming bigger by the day. Not even mentioning the sheer volume of accounts on this game that are save edited would number in the thousands.

Believe it or not a LOT of people FALSELY report people which only weighs down how long it takes for legitimate concerns to actually be answered. They are doing their best but because of improperly done tickets, understaffed support, and more. They are taking action but I guarantee you as soon as they ban this guy there will be more posts of <why did they not ban this guy he cheats too>.
You will never be happy... and that is ok.

Saying "I will never be happy" is the strangest way of defending hacking. Of course I'm not going to be happy if they allow hackers into the game, nobody should. But, you're implying that I will never be happy because some people are just better than me and it feels like they're cheating which is wrong.

You are not looking for solutions you are looking for a fight with anyone or anything for any reason on a whim. I wish you luck and hope that you can get the answers you are looking for.
Also I like how you argue and hope you get the chance to argue against someone who will defend Hackers and not the other way around. By the way, it says hello

Given that they don't do the industry standard post match data points(Forget if it has a better name) is a large part of the issue.
What it let them see is the data of the match but not a video recording to let them detect hacks.
So they could see how fast everyone was going(Speed hacking), if an impossible XYZ coordinates(Flight hacking), impossible objects spawning(huntress hatchets without a huntress), if impossible status changes happen(Infinite status hacks/instant healing) and so so many more.
Effectively they lack what is the industry bare minimum for checking for hackers unless something has changed.

There is no hacking problem
There are as many hackers in this game as any other multiplayer game

Gonna have to disagree with that. About a year and a half ago, iirc, there was little to no cheating. The first 3 years I played this game, there were was 1 cheater I ran into. There have been two major surges in cheating, these past two weeks, and a few months ago.
This game used to have almost no cheaters in it, then there was suddenly cheaters everywhere.
It is frustrating to know that the anti-cheat for this game is not what it used to be.

Conversely - I have played just under 1,000 hours so far in 2021 and come across - 1 hacker. It's all anecdotal. In just over 4k hours total in DBD I have ran across 3 hackers - which is far fewer than I have in other online games.

Yet mods that change the music/sound effects or mods of skins are NOT ALLOWED Lol. Unfortunate because a well made mod could keep the game fresh. There was a mod I wanted to use that replaced the pallet stun with the taco bell ding. Like c'mon regardless of if Im winning or losing the match that would have been hilarious.

People were using those mods to cheat iir

Same here. I am currently somewhere around 1200 hours clocked on DbD and have come across hackers 2 times. I guy who teleported and another who could not be injured. Both situations were annoying af though lol

I ran into a dwight hacking about 2 minutes ago, faster than billy with engravings, good survivor buff if hacking does not exist.
1 -
I've seen 2 hackers in all my time on DBD, people are eager to throw out accusations when a lot of the time it's either lag or a perk that could be mistaken for cheating (like Second Wind)

The anti cheat is bad but take apex for example they have the same anti cheat but they ban a lot of hacker every day they even ban a hacker while he was in game.
At that point i think its mostly the compagnie not caring and leting them do as they please

I'm pretty sure a teleporting steve hooking himself in air is a cheating steve.

A dwight running faster than billy with engravings, yup must be a perk, another dwight perma blinding and having about 8 perks and dead hard twice back to back, a jake that insta healed everyone within 1-2 seconds, which perks are those? I want to try them myself.
