Hunt: Showdown 1896

How vastly is the esp/radar and wallhacks in this game?
How vastly is the esp/radar and wallhacks in this game? I have not come across many people I know for certain is using third party software. However there are times I play against people that looks to have legit accounts with no really good stats, but they just have the best "knowledge". For instance I just played a game I held a window for a really long time. I turn around boom headshot. My teammates tries to help me they hold the window for a few minutes then he goes to ress and he gets shot. This happens to the last guy as well. During these times we are aiming at the window. No one is peaking to check if we are reviving.

I know there's a big chance people are lucky, but sometimes I really scratch my head and suspect some does use third party software to get info.

What are your experiences and opinions?

Go on youtube and search for Hunt wallhack and put the filter to last week/ last month and you will find a lot of cheat providers. Or google will show you a lot of options. One forum even claims to have a simple ESP/walls that are undetected since years. Also some Discords with around 300+ members with premium cheats are around.

If you report that to crytek nothing happens. I even got silcened once for naming and shaming a cheat provider with his video cheating. So in other words: They do not care

i have 2k hours, seen about 200 obvious cheaters only, much better than csgo

Desync is bad too, so they probably are at the window shooting but hasnt registered on your side. I had a guy the other night run past a window on my screen and i died 1 sec later from his crossbow shot. Went and watched recording and the sound of the shot didnt even register until he was past the window.

Yeah rage hackers are very rare to be honest. The trick is legit cheating anyway. The unlucky situation they shoot your back in the worst timing, the 4th wallbang that is your head, the perfect positioning no matter where you peak. All of this can happen and it is impossible to call cheats on these things in hunt. If you are a smart Wallhacker you will never get banned

So you think there are a lot of cheaters around that tries to hide their cheats?

You have to pay to play this game. You have to pay for the cheats. Of course cheaters are operating on the notion that they are being spectated and they want to create plausible denial by missing shots and sometimes even losing. Also, just using wallhacks doesn't guarantee winning; it is just an advantage. This is a game where anyone can one-shot you in the face and win. Even cheaters lose here. But why wouldn't a cheater play smarter and hide their cheating in order to protect their investment in the game and the hacks they are using?

There are enough discords i know with people who use cheats and are not getting banned (One server with around 300 active players and one with around 200). All of them do not bang people from 200 meters through the wall but are players that will just have that random moment of luck to peek you from behind, throw a perfect frag bomb or just peek the right window of your building. So nothing that makes them in anyway obvious. If you play with them they will only do callouts to tell you where enemy is coming from and going to but not do anything strange.

Mostly in 5-6 MMR btw. So i do not think that there is any significant amount of cheating in MMR below 5. And even in 5 impossible to tell as sometimes you are really just unlucky and it is impossible to tell the difference

Also look at how many people dump $$$ money in to the battle pass and buy event levels and every skin Crytek can crank out. You think some of those people aren't afraid to dump money on ESP hacks so they can finally win a match? Hacks are a huge industry that no one tracks the amount of money being poured in to. I've never sold hacks but I wrote a program for WoW that fished for you and people gave me a lot of their money so they didn't have to fish themselves. I wrote another for Black Desert Online. Okay. Maybe NO ONE EVER HACKS and they just hate fishing in a game themselves. But I suspect the number of hackers is a lot higher than people suspect meaning a lot of gamers are just naive. But if you enjoy the game and you don't think anyone is cheating, more power to ya. Go have fun.

Well from experience i would say that people play less "sketchy" during the non-sale periods.

add a sale and suddenly you have new proplayers who appears to headclick enemies thru walls more frequent.

but thats just my take on it

There are enough cheaters in 3-4 stars also, while they are climbing up the ladder. On US i find more cheaters at 3-4 mmr than in any 5-6 star lobby on eu.
Just now, i got abused by a dual wield troll cheater, 7k bounty so fresh account... he knew where i was even if i came slowly with no sounds making from far... he started hitting me consecutive at over 100m... he killed me twice at distance and close when i tried to revive... and somehow the 3rd time, i managed to hs him right after my revive, he had his back on me.

This is annoying, that we have to lose kd and time fighting people who do beta-testing for cheat makers...

I do believe this is one of the game that has one of the biggest cheaters problem. I don't have any evidence and I don't care enough to do some researches, but from guts feelings it's kind of crazy.

1.33 KD 100k Bounty hunters 1 tapping the whole server happens way too often.

I do believe that anyone above 2.5 Kd is a cheater. There's too many RNG factors in this game for someone to be this consistent on kills.

When the leaderboard is up, it's so obvious that the top players are hackers, they aren't even trying to hide it anymore.

2.5 KD also includes KD farmer.

You don't need to use cheats to know where the guy you just killed is laying and where his body will be when he stands up. You also don't need cheats to have a teamate sitting under their building and hear them rez.

So one guy sits close to you, your killer has a rifle and waits for their team to say "He's reviving", they wait 2 seconds and shoot through the wall and kill you, its really not hard to farm 3-4 kills like this on people that "Hold windows for really long time"

And be scamed for money. Real dealers do not AD such blatantly.

With good headphones and hear you can be like cheat engine yourself. Sounds in this game is everything.

Cheating is an art. You need to use your hacks to win more matches but not draw too much attention. Again i did play with a lot of cheaters in different games (CS, R6 Siege, Battlefield and Hunt). They are not what the forum loves to talk about the guys with 5+ KD and shooting through walls like there is no tomorrow. These people move around the map and teams in a way that "suddenly" brings them in the best fighting position. If a team goes to the same clue as yours they will just call to go from the side and suddenly you see one guy picking up the clue so you 1 tap him and it is 2v3. They aim at a window of a compound see a guy cross it and wallbang him. This looks legit and like good tracking even though they walled the guy. Or they preaim the wrong window knowing the enemy will peek the other one and make a nice flick shot. Nothing strange in MMR 5 or 6. They miss a dynamite and throw a frag bomb on you afterwards. Nothing strange, just 2 nades in two different directions and one managed to kill you.

If you have a premium hack and you are not dumb you can use it to just give your team an edge and while some people might suspect you, nothing will be clear evidence and things will look like pure luck :)
