Yes, this game is hacker sided

Easy (to bypass) Anti-Cheat is an open invitation to all hackers, and they have taken up the offer. Our game stands low, trodden underfoot by the hoards of those who pay to modify the game so as to make their victories all the easier. Our allies, the streamers, are the victims of concerted attack as they hack themselves into their lobbies. Only our masters the developers could stop this assault on our very gaming lives, but they have been unable to return the fight to the hackers, and we remain consistently behind. How will we free ourselves?

    Its the spaghetti code.

    The simplest way I can explain to you that dbd almost entirely client sided, next to nothing on server side. What does it mean?

    It means that client is the king, there are no server validation for almost anything.

    As a client you can tell the game, "now I am flying or run at 500% speed, or do the gen with one tap", in every other game would be a server check, " is it possible, is it valid action" , and the game wouldn't let it happen. There are no such checks in dbd, dbd is the exception, whatever the hacker tell the game it will accept it without question. There you have it, this is how hatchet ghostface was possible and might be still.

    This is why dbd so weak to cheaters. No anti cheat can protect this spaghetti code.

    Sorry.

    to be fair, the game was designed to be a p2p-game, server were only used for matchmaking. Thats why people wanted dedicated servers, but what they got was...something different.
