ive played a nurse game yesterday and experienced annoying cheats where they popped a gen as the game just started the cheater spawn next to gen popped it then ran to the gen with speed hacks on top of that there teammates were also hacking so maybe is was group i checked there perks they had no tool boxes no gen perks and they were toxic in end game chat and last night i got swatted im not safe because of dbd i grind that game every day
LMAO dude stop acting like you're the truth speaker or saint of the Dbd community, this level of conspiricy theorising that the Fog Whisperers have their hands tied in this issue is insane. Its embarrassing at this point.
the one thing i dont understand is in rust they have fly hack violation that kicks when someone flys and the same for when people speed hack and its a auto kick and tbh it works well its not 100% but it keeps logs for server owners to check but dbd has non of these auto kick triggers like oh this person moved really fast but his a surviour and then kicks them
You are aware that in the UK, to change your IP address, you simply have to turn off your router, and then turn it back on??
Okay now im less anooyed at this game becusae its clear ive been going against some subtle cheaters with flashlights at the very least. Those blinds from the side look familiar af.
Seeing spooky loopz stream the other day was my firat good look at the obvious cheaters in dbd. Mind blowing that they would sit on the roof pf the map for 2 hours just becuse. I would have left but the spooky was too proud i guess.
In the grand scheme of things, the lack of a replay system and very simple cheat detection through using simple things like making sure speeds match with what it should be or positioning matches where they should be. It's extremely disappointing when you consider its on a dedicated server. They actually have the information but the people with the decision making powers, just don't care. They just want your money. These are such unbelievably simple things they could do that it's actually malicious of them to not make these incredibly necessary changes. Clearly, dealing with the cheaters seriously, costs them more than the damage they cause. As in, damage to their profits. Because they don't care about you. Never forget, companies want your money at any cost to themselves really. The person at the top always wins. Company goes down, well CEO made millions anyways.
Games with more things going on have replay systems. They've had them for at least a decade. World of Tanks has 30 players in each game and they've had a reliable replay system for over 10 years.
Your content just gets greater and greater man.
the easy anticheat doesnt ban u but if it finds something it tells u somethings wrong and to validate ur files, after that u play normally, my source is a hacker dev
You're not a programmer, but you're on the right track.
The issue is that the servers aren't running an actual simulation of the game, which results in them being effectively blind. They are less like dedicated servers for a game and more like a dedicated proxy for messages – they receive messages from the players ("I hit X", "I dropped pallet and stunned Y") and simply… sends them to the other players.
Their "validation" is bound to be some sort of if/else around timings (if player A says they got a pallet stun and player B says they got a hit, favor player A, etc). The fact that video evidence is required for reports means that the servers are unable to tell the fuck is going on and there are no logs.
Honestly, it's very comfortable to code like that. Because they can probably get away by adding a lot of perks/killers with little to no changes server-side, since the client-side can handle everything. But doing so kind of opens up the door to hackers to do anything they want. They can bring all perks at the same time, because the server doesn't really know what a "Perk" is. They can pick themselves up instantly because the server will accept "I got up" as a valid action, since the server doesn't know when it isn't a valid action. They can fly and throw hatchets as a Ghostface because the server lacks the concept of what is a killer and what are killer powers. They can blow up all gens because the servers have no idea what gens are and simply passes along the "I blew up all these gens despite them being very far from each other; I'm a special Kate who flies very fast" to everyone else.
The dedicated servers are proxies with occasional checks. And imo even the checks aren't good, we'd really benefit from better syncing of positions. At this point it'd be better for them to give up on the server validation and just make all clients judges of their own game state. The clients are far better equipped to make decisions (given that they're running a full simulation of the game), and it's not like the game has a ranking ladder that is sacred. They could just let cheaters desync themselves from everyone else and get a win on their screen (but a loss on everyone else's). That'd be the cheapest option to fix cheating.
More expensive option would be to teach the servers about this thing called "Dead by Daylight" and how it works. Given that they didn't bother to even teach their MMR what "Dead by Daylight" is, I sincerely doubt their capacity to ever do this right. At most we'll get some if/else that sort of bandaid the situation.
BHVR: Glares angrily at Otz's special cosmetic shirts
Man the little kids that are doing all this nonsense really don't have lives
This cheating plague is exactly why im currently boycotting the pc version of the game and strictly playing on console with cross play off id rather take long ques than play with a cheater
While I am glad to see a lot of people speaking out about this, it’s really frustrating that only once the Fog Whisperers made a public complaint about it, do BHVR actually have any sort of noticeable reaction at all.
This isn’t meant for self-promo, but I’m a streamer with <400 followers, more or less always single digit viewers, but just last Saturday I tried to do a special stream for having hit sub goals for the month. Across the span of 8 hours, I had three cheaters, two of which held me hostage, one of which for the full 2 hours. It was miserable, and ultimately due to my own time constraints and fear of being held hostage a third time, I ended up having to cut the stream, originally penned to be 12 hours, early and call it for a day, leaving me in a pretty paranoid position for when I’m doing the second half of it (I say half to make up for the two hours lost to the first hostage). My first game of the day was a cheater, acting as a second killer. I then got held hostage on Ormond for 2 hours, followed by another hostage on Rancid for significantly less time, but it was still annoying nonetheless.
BHVR are shamefully bad when it comes to the urgency of dealing with things like this. I’ve seen more cheaters (the ones I mention above were just one day) in a single week than in the remaining full 6 years I’ve played the game. They’re so oblivious to problems within their own game and the thing is, some of these things *are not hard to fix*, being from a coding background. They’re just too incompetent, lazy, or have their priorities severely wrong, to not have already done it.
Sorry for both the self promo and if this sounded ranty, but I needed to vent this somewhere.
I ran into two cheaters, one where I was in a survivor match with two of my friends and the random survivor was a hacker and their actions force the poor Trapper to DC, and in a killer match where a survivor pop all 5 gens and escape the moment the match started, so I couldn't do anything but let the 3 normal survivors escape….
Dowsey looking svelte these days
you'd be surprised how far cheats and even bots can go these days. it's entirely possible to set up an automated system to lobby snipe a streamer and then automatically run a bot to play against that streamer with subtle cheats and human like actions. MMOs have been fighting this very battle for a long time and cheat devs are only getting better while dbd devs fail to meet expectations time and time again. bhvr will likely fix the impossible cheats at some point in the future but the subtle cheaters will likely be here to stay for a long long time.
Hats off to Dowsey. Keeping truth to his word. Subbing again.
It's so unfortunate to see DBD get like this, I myself couldn't take how bad the game had got and deleted it about 3 or 4 months ago, I miss it from time to time but I think I miss the old dbd, which is sad cause old dbd (2018-2019) wasn't that great either, but was my favorite time to play it
I don't get how they can't force 4 perks and 2 addons max.
Cheaters can stack more than these, a cheating survivor can even add killer perks too if they want, potentially making the killer look like a cheater.
This should be the easiest part to fix. How it is possible to have more than 4 perks and more than 2 addons? Why is it possible? It shouldn't. It should automatically trigger the anti-cheat.
bro. you're so good at thumbnails. would LOVE a tutorial on how you did this one! I know it's probably not gonna happen but one can hope lol
Love the outfit! Looks sharp and festive 🍁
