Speed hacking killers?

Has anyone noticed an increase lately? I've had quite a few matches where the killer has gained a bit to much ground after a stun or vault that they had to walk a decent distance around. I can't say for sure but I'm a killer main and have a decent idea of how much ground a killer with no movement power can gain. I could be wrong but there's just been a few to many times lately where they seem to be a little to fast or right on top of me sooner then normal.

    Been going on for a while, just no one really talks about it.

    I think because it's harder to notices because the killer is already faster then the survivor

    For some time now, I've noticed that sometimes you can't run certain loops successfully. the killers aren't that much faster that it's obvious though.

    5% faster killer is enough to get a big advantage. if you compare that to noed's 4%, it takes a lot of experience to tell the difference and even more if you are in chase with the killer.

    but how can you prove it? even if you have a video, it's hard to tell if the speed is right or not. BHVR should finally give the servers a minimum of basic checks.

    Been like this after the Knight was released I think. Killers with no speed related perks catching up between loops after breaking a pallet with no brutal strength and hitting you. Meanwhile you can mindgame the pallet to zone survivors away from the nearest loop, break it with brutal and they still have so much time they can run around once or twice before they drop the next pallet. VERY noticeable.

    Idk, sometimes I do get weirded out but I don't have the experience to tell for sure. Also doesn't help that my controller does weird things and I run slower many times (button is probably malfunctioning).

    Had a Nurse moving faster than I would think the other day. Thought she was running double Iri due to her having 2 blinks but turn out just basic addons. Wish I had OBS up and recorded it.

    There was a Trapper with agitation and iron grasp and unnerving, and an artist with corrupt,pr,dms,and bbq. Those are the only to I remember.

    I've noticed it at times, but since I have no proof of wrongdoing on their side I just conclude they're better than me and leave it at that.
