BHVR, you guys have a SERIOUS cheater problem.

in Feedback and Suggestions

It is getting more common every single day. People with speedhacks, people that can't get grabbed even in the open, people with 5 second heals, and the worst thing is when they know, and they start teabagging like they're someone in life hacking in a casual game.

It's getting on my nerves lately and reporting seems to not do anything

    I have over 1k hours and I have met 2 cheaters. If you want to see serious cheater problem, then play Warzone.

    If you see cheater, you can just leave. At least now, when there is no DC penalty.

    The fact that you did encounter less than me doesn't invalidate my point. Because it's not just me, my friends also are finding tons. Right now i'm talking to a friend in discord. He's getting guys with insta-heals (and not talking about the medkit with the addon). The speedhackers are not stupid. They just do some subtle increments to not let it be that obvious, but when with bloodlust 3 you can't catch up with a guy in a small loop, something is wrong. Not to mention the ones that literally touch a gen that was at 0% and then it is done. Or the people that teleport outside of the gates when they're not open so they can escape.

    I wonder how many survivors you thought cheat, but they were just better than you...

    btw it works both ways, if my different experience doesn't invalidate your point, then just because you think you encounter lot of cheaters, it doesn't validate your point, because it doesn't reflect any actual numbers.

    When you encounter a hacker or if you think someone is hacking, record your match, report in game and open a ticket on the Support website (https://support.deadbydaylight.com/hc/en-us/requests/new) giving all the required information.

    If you are not sure how to record your match, this thread may be useful:

    Hello, people of the fog!

    When reporting a player, many offences require video evidence to help us investigate your report. Below is a list of bannable offences which may require video evidence:

    • Working with the opposite team to gain an advantage or grief teammates
    • Targeting specific users repeatedly in order to ruin their game experience
    • Holding the game hostage
    • Botting
    • Lag switching
    • Exploit bugs, errors in design, or undocumented features to gain access to what otherwise would not be available or to obtain a competitive advantage

    HOW TO RECORD YOUR MATCH:

    XBOX:

    • Press the XBOX  button to open the guide.
    • Press the VIEW button, and then select "Record from now" . Depending on your clip's resolution, you can record anywhere from 10 minutes with internal storage and up to 1 hour with external storage.
    • To end the clip, open the guide and press the X button . You'll get a notification when it's been saved.

    PS4:

    • Press the "Share" Button on your controller to begin recording gameplay.
    • When you've recorded your match, save your clip, and trim as needed.
    • After that you can upload the video directly to your linked YouTube account.
    • Length, quality and etc. can be changed depending on your console settings for Video sharing

    PC:

    • For players using an NVIDIA graphics card, you can enable Shadowplay which will automatically record any gameplay while running in the background.
    • To use Shadowplay ensure you have the GeForce Experience program installed.
    • Open the in-game overlay settings found in the top right corner. From there, you can turn on "Instant Replay" and adjust settings such as clip length, quality, and audio levels.
    • Alternatively, you can use OBS to manually record the incidents.

    INFORMATION THAT WILL AID US IN REVIEWING CASES:

    Opening your escape menu and viewing the match details tab.

    This will allow us to see all of the Survivor characters in the match and usernames of who is playing them.

    Visiting the tally menu once a match has ended.

    This will allow us to examine player loadouts including perks, items and offerings.

    UPLOADING YOUR EVIDENCE

    Due to the small file size limit on ZenDesk, we suggest uploading your evidence to YouTube and "Unlisting" it. This will prevent anyone without the link from seeing it, and will allow you to upload without needing to compress the quality to meet the size limit.

    For XBOX players,

    • Open the Youtube App, and sign in.
    • Navigate to the Upload tab. You may need to turn on "Enable Sharing on Social Networks" for your clips to be visible.
    • Select your recorded match
    • Enter a title and then select upload.

    For PC players

    • If you wish to cut down your clip, you can do so in the editing software of your choice. Otherwise you can upload the raw footage straight to youtube by navigating to your shadowplay recording folder.

    Please keep in mind that even with video evidence, an in-game report is still required.

    Screenshots are not considered valid evidence.

    If the video sent does not follow our criteria or the quality of the video is low, it is possible that nothing will be done against the player reported.

    And please keep the discussion civil, no need to attack one another.

    I doubt you are actually encountering cheaters on the level you think you are.

    You can get some pretty insane heals with med-kits and/or perks.

    Grabs are not reliable with dedicated servers.

    And as far as speedhacks go, unless you can prove that someone is moving faster you might be thinking they are moving faster than they are. I remember checking a ttv start streamer after a game once and someone in their chat was claiming that I was moving too fast. But it was just the fact I breaking los constantly that made them think I was going faster than normal.

    It's also important to say, that you need to copy steam player ID of that cheater and include that in your report.

    I didn't know about it and had only record, which is kinda useless, when it can't be connected with any player for 100% (same names, change name).
