Did BHVR delete the anticheat or something? I'm consistently getting cheaters all of a sudden. Yesterday I had someone saboing hooks remotely, now someone I caught blinding me through a wall and caught him using wallhacks, on top of a massive uptick in suspicious gameplay. The ######### going on with the anticheat BHVR?!

    Im starting to belive there isnt any anticheat considering what all things cheaters can do its pretty crazy like no other game I even played (except skyrim maybe bu thats up to you because its PvE not PvP) cheaters had so many options and could basicaly do everything from being unkillable to choosing who they play withand against etc. its pretty crazy and its getting annoying.

    It's only half of the problem, a lesser half. DbD has no server validation for simple client actions, so there are cheats that would be plainly impossible to implement in any other game. You don't need anti-cheat to detect that someone is using a perk they don't have, or running faster with no proper reason.

    Exactly this. Someone will always find a way around whatever anti-cheat or other system gets placed on client machines. BHVR has no control over these devices.

    Meanwhile, BHVR has total control over the servers and whether or not they accept whatever action a client is trying to take.

    Bad thing that some of them that cheat even on steam profile run in the game for months after being reported and i heard there are some that are still not banned after half the year which doesnt surprise me, it seems cheating in DBD is becoming way normal than it should.
