I could be entirely wrong, but I’ve been experiencing more hackers in every game mode.
I can’t even go one game without there being a hacker. I didn’t know what’s been going on but it’s impossible to play overwatch now. I can’t even load into a game without having a hacker in the lobby.

Same, 2/3 of my games are always cheaters, I don’t know if Blizzard anticheat has taking a holiday or what but im getting people rage hacking in ANY gamemode, Arcade isn’t safe, Quick Play, Competitive, you name it!
I just had a game where someone was rage hacking on Junkrat and from the VERY start of the game you could tell they were cheating, another time it was venture.

Link some codes of these cheaters in every game.
Cheaters exist, but ppl pretending it’s nearly every game……
i think blizzard is using ai bots to inflate numbers.

I’ve played since the beta and I’ve never seen more cheaters than I have the last month. For anyone who thinks people in this thread are paranoid, here are some stats for you:
If 2% of players are cheating 18.29% of matches will have at least one cheater.
If 5% of players are cheating 40.13% of matches will have at least one cheater.
If 10% of players are cheating 65.13% of matches will have at least one cheater.
if 15% of players are cheating 80.31% of matches will have at least one cheater.
There are 10 players in a match. Even if aimbots are “rare” you are going to run into them frequently.

Honestly only looked at this one. Orisa looked normal, maybe small packet loss. But for that rat it just looks like he is having a lot of packet loss, so it looks like snapping since it’s missing the movement in between. He is missing shots non stop and I assume they are not above a gold player. If they were actually aimbotting they would hit some shots….
I have a video of a sojourn with strange aim at times but dont have a clue and it isnt rage hacking if it is hacks
I found 3 in about 20 games in this week alone.
As in, 3 that i reported and got a thank you for reporting.
Could be more for all I know.
Out of curiosity - what rank are you in? (not trying to judge, just trying to math out)

and they can talk, have discord, have profiles that are old, have skins and all that?
Lets just stick to some reality here.

why not?
also you cant even see a profile rank or hours let alone their discord id
Lets just stick to some reality here unless you have a special version of overwatch with all profile details,
All the normies went to marvel rivals
There have been cheaters most games for at least a year at this point, but the fact that the player count is so low means there’s more chance of coming across them, I suspect.

It’s been a long time since I’ve seen a genuine headlocking bot. If there are this many cheaters, they’re pretty subtle.
It is common I’ll see people say stuff like “widow is cheating” when they stand out in the open against a 0 ttk hero
I seen a junkrat today where I was dealing damage and their health bar wasn’t even there and it wasn’t even going down. I was doing plenty of damage to them.
Person was playing crossplay and on a Push map.
Absolutely someone that was using hacks.
its too bad this great game is ruined by the free 2 play aspect. Maybe blizzard should actually go after cheaters directly like they use to go after WoW boxers and HB by suing the players directly for using said software.

just had a crossplay genji 1hp backed into a corner. im on dva and i melee them 3 times and all the melee noregs. they literally stay 1hp and don’t move and don’t die. can’t sync the io or they are rigging for some kind of thumbstick inclusion. enough with the DDA rigging or xplay protect or lag switching or w/e that was.
hurts to be a gamer with current game direction.

Couldn’t agree more.

This is a bug where the healthbar just doesnt show shortly after he uses tire. He’s not cheating, and you’re still doing damage to him.
It is absolutely not someone using hacks. There is no such thing as an invulnerability hack in OW.
i just faced against a widow with walls and soft lock? in quickplay… dont know how he lost the game… probably team difference
the player was widow vs me as widow… its like he had infravision most of the time. he even switched genji to counter me but switched back to widow
game replay is TJWWTF
am i right that he was hacking? kind of sucks since it gives widows a bad name…
looking more at the replay i dont think he was hacking… had clues where i was. did seem like it a bit… maybe thats why i only report OBVIOUS HACKERS or rage hackers… you know the ones that truly LOCK ON and LOCK ON BEHIND WALLS lol
