VPN Killers

[AthenasWingGrrrl]

Is there anything that can be done about the upsurge of VPN killers from around the other side of the globe? They're laggy and it seems that they have an unfair advantage (which makes me think that's why they're doing it.)

nope, only if they add hit validation on everything, windows and distance especially, but it will raise killer queue since killers with +100ms couldnt play normally

Nothing can be done about that most player use a vpn for varius reason some will say bhvr security is not the best so its to protect themself other its for an advantage and finally maybe in there area the queue are too long so the go to another server.

Nothing will be done with that. They're even hiding killer ping on purpose in the lobby.

I use vpn as a killer just because i dont want a salty survivor to swat me just because they lost. Yes this has happened to people in the past. You can not blame people for protecting themselves from unhinged people who can not take a loss.

While there are bad actors I firmly believe that vpn should be allowed especially for streamers who may be targeted.

I don't mind VPNs really due to hackers who can steal information. VPN you can use your own region, its when someone uses a VPN and intentionally puts themselves in other regions for advantage with ping is annoying.

i feel the same way about VPN survivors but using a VPN is almost a must for this game

They can limit the ping for killers or at least, show the ping like two years ago.

They'll never do that, becasue of regions like Russia or South Africa.

Blocking does not stop swatting or stealing information. Blocking someone after the fact is like locking the door after you got robbed.

no fix so we will have to settle for the ancient art of git gud and deal with it
