I’ve noticed there are a lot of cheaters on PC

recently, I started to notice a lot of cheaters popping multiple generators-at once with an eight seconds I’m not talking about not even a minute into the game I just recently switched back to Xbox and have not been encountering the same kind of lobbies for real think survivors need nerfed on top of everything else too and don’t get me wrong. I do play survivor too. Also, why are my teammates always so bad I think MMR is also an issue in this game I don’t want a sweat fest every five seconds

    there were a lot of cheaters after a free giveaway on one well-known platform (big mistake). but personally, most of the cheaters came to me from Microsoft accounts, so they can be on Xbox too

    Got a fresh clip from yesterday — a Nea phasing through the ground like she bought the Phasewalker DLC.

    But honestly, the cheat isn’t even the wild part.
    What’s truly absurd is that Dead by Daylight still treats the game client like a trusted eyewitness… despite the fact it’s the prime suspect.

    While other games enforce movement server-side, DBD’s anti-cheat is more of a dreamcatcher: it filters nothing but still hangs around for comfort.
    And when cheaters start flying? BHVR just politely asks for video evidence — as if physics bugs now require film permits.

    At this point, the only thing getting punished consistently… is player optimism.

    Another day, another interdimensional tourist. This time it was Bill…. same phasing cheat, same physics-defying nonsense, different beard.

    I’ve played maybe 10 hours in the past two weeks and already matched with multiple blatant cheaters.

    And honestly? That might actually be a good thing.
    Because like a toddler ignoring bedtime, sometimes the chaos has to get loud enough that the grown-ups are finally forced to step in.

    If the anti-cheat is a discipline system, then congratulations BHVR: you’ve just hit the phase where the furniture gets drawn on in marker.
    Let’s see how many walls need repainting before someone remembers that "trust the client" was never a parental strategy.

    Yeah sometimes I wish they'd put PC queue back to its own thing, I'd move back to console so quickly if there was a console only queue.
