It really makes sense since when eventually all cheats get broken by an update (cheats are just mods after all) then the player count drops about 200K-250K and you can play one game after another without seeing a single cheater even in TPP. Until the cheats are fixed, off course and then all is back to normal.

It is so funny seeing how all those PROS that claim "there are no cheaters - git gut" suddently they stop playing until cheats are fixed.

Thats not very specific, you could play 10 games and have 50% ruined by cheaters and that would still only equate to a small percentage of the player base, if your saying 50% of the playerbase is cheating then thats ludicrous.

I haven´t seen a cheater in a really long time. How do i know this? Because a few months ago i wouldn't even dream of eating chicken and now i do every once in a while, so either i'm playing much better or there are no cheaters, at least that i've seen XD Haven't spotted any suspicious death either. But on reddit someone posted a video about a cheater getting pwned recently, so there are still some out there.

Yeah i agree. I guess some people will always be salty about getting killed. I have a friend that accuses others of cheating every time he's killed lol

I dont think 50% of all players, but at least a few teams worth of people per game on average, some with less, some more. I think the OP has a point though, there was a short period of time not long ago around an update when it was extremely easy to get dinners, at least 1 or 2 per session every day for about a week. Didn't last long but it was glorious.

trust me man some people are just freaks, lvl 500... lmao

i was playing with some chins and this one dude was like on CRACK BRO... he was moving like a machine, so skilled... but couldnt carry us

LOL, ROTFLMAO! With over 6K hours in PUBG I can say with some authority Cheating is ~50% worst than it was only a few seasons ago.

i think the cheaters are just in some of your guys' heads because you don't want to be sent back to the lobby

i even think these guys know they aren't hacking but are saying so because they didn't want to be sent back to the lobby

which is why i think they just report everyone who killed them -- whether they think they were hacking or not -- in hopes to somehow get them permabanned so they won't have to encounter them again.
it won't work like that

i'm sorry, but with the kind of pettiness that goes on here, this is the only conclusion i can come to

Nice assumptions there. Unreal.

No-one knows exactly how many cheaters are in each game, so it's pointless discussing it - this only leads to post/reporting and more division in this "community" (I use that term loosely now as it isn't a community anymore).

I rarely encounter cheaters. Level 500s that wreck you are not cheating. I report everyone who kills me that is under level 200. A level 17 who headshots you straight way is an obvious cheater and they get banned.

To answer your question, I'd say 5%

Ofc you can know how many there are in one game... Just watch the replay... When in competitive TPP you have 4 guys that kill 10 players at the beginning of the game so in 2 mins only 8 guys left... You know they are cheating in some ways xD I'm just watching a game where one guy with a single pistol is killing everyone... Stop denying.

Nobodies gives a ♥♥♥♥ about that anyway... They are fully geared with 100 bucks of skins at lvl 150 but no one dare to kick them of the game because they just say "they are good and all proplayers lelelelelel"

I'm pretty sure people play with bots and call out for no cheaters xD Obviously if you do not play competitive at a good level you won't see any of them playing... It's the same way if you die like a random newbie after 3 mins...

Just try to play on a real level and you will see you just cannot play this game fairly... 3 years ago it was already like that but they were no reason for them to cheat... Now there is one, competitive games. That's all. I did one game in competitive, i need like 15 minutes to report every cheater in the game after on the replay... One guy in my team was kicked out from the game, on guy at the beginning, another one just one taped 4 guys in a car at 100y dist, another just shot everyone with P1911, one last had a WH and was avoiding everyone (4 teams in a corner but still he walks away from their sight). And the best of the best, at the end when we were only 11 guys remaining and the circle was down, one guy popped out of a roof and killed every buddy in 15 secs... (and i did not mention people who were here just to spawnkill bots and get a better rank then die (like 20 peps)...

So what the hell do you call that a non cheating game... Stop spreading fake news on the internet. I have video on proof but i'll not link it here because i'll get a ban for naming and shaming like usual.

You don't have enough experience to play this game like a pro...so you can't judge what you're judging, that's why you see cheaters everywhere... by the way, you haven't put any proof of what you say...and bla bla bla bla

Who's denying? I'm one of the more vocal in calling out the cheaters - but like you say in your next post, you run a risk of being banned/silenced in this forum if you are an honest gamer highlighting the scourge of cheating. Has happened to me - perma-banned from this forum for showing one of my own videos showing a blatant cheater multiple times over multiple games.

In reality - you cannot know how many are cheating - even by the methods you state as you only can see a number of players within your area of influence/replay camera range - usually around 1/5th or a 1/4 of the players at best - until you get to late stage game....then, you can get a better idea if you watch them all via replay - but sorry, I'm not wasting my time watching every individual player to report them in game if I feel they're cheating - that's pretty sad thing to do - especially as I know that it actually does nothing in stopping the problem as if they are banned, it's F2P so they just loadup another smurf and crack on.....
