Cheaters

I'm sure there are tricky way to sublty cheat, but couldn't the game check for something obvious like a killer teleporting or having too short of a cooldown considering the perks/addons or being faster than it's "legaly" possible ingame, and autoban the account?

Or like last match when the killer has hex:ruin, hex: haunted grounds, bamboozel, bbq in the end screen but during the match he also had scourge hook: pain resonance, dead mans switch, hex: blood favour, hex: thrill of the hunt, and possible more.

Shouldn't something that's that obvious be automatically detected, like someone using more the four perks or over 200% speed, swing cooldown below what's reasonable etc.

    When you report someone for cheating, they do not accept partial videos like this, and they tell you that the whole match must be submitted, from loading screen hashes to post game lobby screen.

    I understand that BHVR doesn't want to come down hard on cheaters because they'd lose a large portion of their player base but at the same time, come on... These unpunished hackers are getting out of hand again.

    I'm not recording every single game, but it's pretty obvious they cheated. Also both were off plattform so I can't really post an ID anyways.

    But I mean they shouldn't have to be reported in the first place. If a killer moves at 300% speed or anything beyond reasonable doubt that can only be done through hacking, there should be some automatic watchdog to just autoban the account before they can finish their first game
