Can someone please explain to me, how a spirit downed a survivor, first hit in the beginning of the game, no gens done, match literally just started, so I don't know how any perks would've activated and also can someone explain how the survivor that got downed, was able to use ds

    It's impossible without video or at least screenshot of loadouts of all players and additional information about the situation. Could be new perk which makes you exposed after stun. Iron maden. Locker grab. Gen grab. Chest grab. Totem grab. Could be you missed first hit on the hud. Could be flashlight save, pallet save, pover struggle. Could be oni's perk which make you an obsession after stun so power struggle selfsave look like ds. Could be bugs, could be cheats. Could be smth else. Could be anything, actually. What did happen exactly and what did you see? Timings? Perks?

    There are so many explanations for this. The 2 above are already very plausible

    I know DbD has a cheater problem but you're going to lose your mind if you start to see cheaters everywhere.

    No that definitely wasn't it, the survivor we had on our team was definitely cheating

    So, two different people give you roughly 15 possible explanations for what you posed as a genuine question. You respond by dismissing 2 of the 15 suggestions and claiming the only explanation is cheats.

    It's far less believable that you're being sincere when you 'casually' toss in what sounds like a content creators name, but with zero screenshots, video, or actual evidence.

    If 'everyone in the lobby was cheating', this sounds like a self report that you did something with cheats yourself, since you are part of 'everyone' in that lobby and could clearly see everything going on.

    Pink Glyph? Flashlight save?

    Many options here.

    You said the killer was Spirit, it could have been his hex : haunted ground

    Then pallet save or flashlight save or else

    I mean, this game is full of cheaters, maybe this one was a cheater as well but there are plenty of valid reasons how this could happen
