Yes
I’ve played with hackers on three separate occasions before as survivor (all of them were me playing as Jonathan, except for the third time which I played as Steve) one was against a hacking pig who used the video tape add on and had something where we couldn’t get the traps off our head, the gens were at 99 and as soon as one of us touched a gen to finish it all our heads popped and me and my teammates died, second time was against another hacking pig which I used scoops ahoy Jonathan Byers, the pig pretty much killed us all at the start of the game and left me on the ground while she hooked my teammates, when my teammates were dead she went back to me being downed and did… something questionable to me while she was crouched until I bled out while I was downed (these two encounters were pre-patch before the dh rework and all that), The third encounter was recent and was a hacking yui on my team that held me and the killer (huntress) hostage, I dc’d and got a five minute penalty of course.

I’m a hacker
I don't know. If I did, not with obvious ones.

I've played against the infamous ghostface with hatchets hacker and against a survivor who died on hook but teleported to the gates and escaped

Question is a bit ambiguous. Played with, as in just been in the game with one? Or queued up with a hacker friend? I have been in lobbies with hackers but I don't know any personally. I have played with and against at least double digit hackers that were blatant. I am sure the list of subtle hackers would be much much longer.

Yes
There's nothing ambiguous about it. Very simple yes or no.

No
A question having only yes or no answers doesn't immediately make it unambiguous. Is there anything I can help you understand about the paragraph I typed.

Welp, may as well leave my first hacker.

Ever since a few weeks prior the anniversary, the number of hackers have increased drastically. Everything from subtle hackers (survivors who heal/repair/cleanse way faster, run faster, etc), to shameless hackers (tap to instantly repair a gen, or disconnecting the killer when the hacker is about to die, for example) to obvious hackers (pop all gens at once, open the doors immediately, and escape instantly all within 3 seconds of the game)...
I play only killer most of the time, so that's why I mostly see only survivors hacking. Even tho I've also played against killer hackers.
All I can say is that easy anticheat is a joke

I just had one yesterday when I was playing survivor, it was another survivor. Didn't realize it because gens weren't getting done quickly and when he healed me it was normal speed. I run Kindred and noticed his aura zoom across the map to make the save. Then after last gen popped I was being chased, I saw his player icon switch to the escape icon before the doors were opened. Killer ended up carrying me to the exit instead of killing me, which he could've easily done since the other two survivors had opened the exit and left while I was being chased.
I've had alot of killers and survivors using the subtle hacks like they're moving way faster than they should without using any perks/add ons to increase their speed. Honestly the subtle hackers bug me way more than the ones that are blatant flying around or escaping before doors open.

- First encounter was on midwitch. Two hackers were hooking themselves.
- Didn't know the next person was a hacker until we left her on second hook just to see that she had escaped on the results screen
- This hacker was a few months ago. They had a quad boon and gave us every passive buff. They crashed my game when I spectated them.
- Didn't know this person was a hacker until my game crashed during spec
- About a week ago I had two matches with this guy called solo queue gen rush. Did all the gens in less than 10 secs, hooked himself in front of the killer for a little while and then left each time.

There are some peopke i really can't tell if matchmaking messed up completely and put me a game with a god ir if they are cheaters. But there is one match in particular i remember very vividly. I played as pinhead, and they did some stuff that's obviously cheating. Like, 3 people were around me, and only 1 person not in my sight, suddenly 3 gens pop at once. Or i downed somebody, and suddenly every hook on the map is destroyed. Then they flashlight saved someone by blinding me trought the wall. They healed themselves in like half a second, i think they even had wall hacks, because it was impossible to mindgame them at a gym or so etc. etc. All things considered, it was the most horrible match i ever had.

To clarify I have never played against a blatant obvious hacker. I might have been against a subtle hacker or two but I have no way of knowing that. 🤷♂️

Played with and against around 5 survivor cheaters, all of them got banned on their respective accounts due to my (maybe not only my) tickets.
The only cheater-killer I versed was a Spirit. But she threw the game, let us farm and escape, and also took me to the moon. Literally.
So yeah, haven't met malicious cheating killers myself yet, only survivors.

Fighting survivors on RPD with torches that had the filaments made from the core of the sun was an experience.

while i do not support hacking at all. One hacker i had was really funny. And everyone else died if i remembered correctly.
but basically, there was this Nea running FOUR URBAN EVASIONs and had a faster crouch speed, than killers own base speed. Kind off hilarious to watch, ended letting killer kill us out of pity.

My answer used to be "I can't be sure," but lately it's been more common for people to load into a match and auto-complete it (all gens done and they teleport out the door as soon as the match loads). So, now I can say, yes, I'm sure I've been in a match with a hacker.
