How many cheaters?

[Eren]

Hi, I am thinking of getting Tarkov or Hunt, but I dont want Tarkov because of a lot of cheaters. How is Hunt about this?

[Samb]

There aren't a lot of cheaters. People are just bad. I'm not even good at this game, but you can just spectate after you die and see that they aren't cheating.
I've noticed a lot of people seem to think they are invisible if they hide in a bush or behind a wall, so I imagine they call "hax" after getting domed.

I have over 1500 hours and am 6 star rank which is the highest in the game. You wont see hackers unless you play at late hours where server population is very low. You especially wont see hackers unless your high 6 star 5 star rank and evan then its the same cheaters from the same clan discords. if you dont take the game serious and stay a low rank you will almost never come across a cheater. Tarkov has so many cheaters cause alot of people are making big money off the loot. In hunt the loot doesnt really matter much. Tonight had 2 out of 7 games had cheaters in them at the highest rank. Which is a really good night.

Hunt is really awful, its buggy, poorly optimized, infested by chinese cheaters and poorly supported... also it has DLC and battlepasses you gotta pay for... I would pass on it.

too much do not recommend this game

As a 3-4 stars, you die some really, really weird deaths here. I can't affirm if it were a cheat or not, all I can do is report.

People who 100% know where you are behind a wall (without a bounty or holes or noise). Questionable headshots. 3 stars not missing a single shot and killing your entire squad.

This game is weird sometimes.

This is a bad take. Saying that a 3star is incapable of team wiping? Thats just silly

It is hard to detect cheaters in this game since the MMR system is a bit busted in that regard, players with MMR 3 could be top players but they messed around a lot so when you get killed in very weird ways it could just be skill, other times yeah it could have been a cheater, personally i pull one too many shots through walls that end up in headshots that it is scary, i usually apologize, still the forums tend to overblown the cheater issue, at least in the servers that i play at the obvious number of cheaters ive encountered could be counted by my hands, but it might not be the same case for your area

With so diverse opinions I have things less clear now XD

This video should suffice for Tarkov.

As for Hunt, take it from word of mouth from me with 4,100 hours. When it comes to cheaters, Tarkov has much, much, more. However Hunt has quite a lot as well. I've been playing since Alpha and I know hunt inside and out. I know the cracks in nearly every wall, what doors you can see out of, but not into due to lighting. The sounds you make and the sounds I make.

I can tell you that you'll run into at least 1 cheater every 10 games, at minimum. However, unlike Tarkov, Hunt is more "even playing field." You can kill a cheater much easier in Hunt, than you can kill a cheater in Tarkov. Those saying "low low" amount of cheaters, are talking just the most blatant of obvious cheaters. Not every cheater is going to headshot you through 3 buildings from 300 meters away. Most are much more subtle. Obvious cheaters are the cheat makers who sell cheats. Simply testing out their cheats to make sure it's undetected by EAC, making sure they actually work and such before sale.

It is EXTREMELY easy to hide ESP Wallhacks in Hunt, due to the amazing sound quality of the game. Most of all if you even have a inkling of common sense to try to hide it. Aimbots are unreliable in Hunt due to Muzzle Velocity messing with "head snapping" except at short ranges, plus it is much more risky and obvious. Most cheaters in Hunt use only ESP, but that is enough to really tip the scales. They are not immune to losing though.

In short, if you want LESS cheaters and ones you can somewhat still win against, go with Hunt. If you want MORE cheaters and ones you've got no chance against, Tarkov.

I play both games, tarkov has way more cheaters. at least obvious ones. running in to one every 2-3 matches in tarkov.

Hunt i can play hundreds of matches without anything suspicious happening, maybe there are way less cheaters (no monetary incentive because no real money trading possible in hunt) or they are less obvious therefore indistinguishable from a legit player. either way they are not an issue in Hunt you need to worry about.

In Tarkov as soon you get good loot, cheaters will often beeline to your position and talk to you and coerce you to drop the good item or they will aimbot you. Yes they blatantly aimbot you and admit it even.

In 2000+ hours of hunt i can count suspicious players on 2 hands, but nothing outside the realm of the human possible, or just dumb luck which can happen.

Other than cheaters, in Tarkov you have more looting less shooting.
in Hunt you have more shooting and barely any looting.
Also in Hunt fights often take at least 5-10 minutes with active shooting. in some cases fights can last way longer due to reviving, map design and most weapons having low RPM or if they have high RPM low damage and high spread.

In Tarkov fights are often over in seconds, sometimes minutes but without any active shooting.

Hunt is more fun and action oriented. that means the map are designed to create fun fights.

Tarkov is more realism oriented, that means the maps and the buildings are not game like and there are many unfair or unfun spots, the maps are not made to be fun but to be realistic.

Tarkov has more cheaters than Hunt. You will question a lot of times when you get shot because of certain angles or wall banging ridiculousness, but overall it has far less cheaters. The only reason you'd get Tarkov over this is if you love looter extraction milsim shooter over rootin' tootin' cowboy shootin'. I can't stand Tarkov because of the amount of Tetris you have to play with the inventory, then you have to have a LOT of knowledge of what you are picking up and what you're leaving behind. Tarkov is WAY more of an mental investment than Hunt where you can just jump in and have a good time.

I'm super biased against Tarkov as I love watching people play it or clip it but I absolutely detest playing it myself. It's too much of a chore and if they were to tune it down it'd be more enjoyable but knowing the audience they'd have a panic attack if Nikita made it even remotely casual.

I wouldn't say " hundreds" but you could play a solid amount before something happens that makes you question it... most hackers seem to just use a radar hack these days.. not many aimbots on hunt atm.. but they do exist.

[[Psycho] Lance]

Just check Dead by daylight that uses the same anti cheat as comparison, it has a billion cheaters, so much cheaters that the streamers are getting tired of it, now apply that to Hunt, to say hunt has no cheaters when the top 10 of the ladder that was removed was all chinese hackers with the same name so yeah it has alot of cheaters, its just how you cheat that is the problem are you hiding it well or are you not giving a ♥♥♥♥.

[BLOOD ELF]

Too many. Many of them use HDD hack, when game cant load walls and other objects on map. But it still a cheat.

[R4nk4sija]

there has only been 1 clear cheater who shot through trees and was wallbanging not even knowing some1 was there i have a 10minute clip of him just shooting people down from miles but no its really rare you would see a cheater in hunt in my opinion you should 100% give hunt a try its really the best shooter i have played
