Subtle speedhacks?

I just came from a game where a soldier had increased run speed and fire rate.
it was subtle, but noticeable, there was no ana there to nano him. so its not that,

has anyone noticed anything like this lately?

Are you sure you’re not lagging?

Replay code or didn’t happen.

IDK, I’ve been noticing quite a few weird things lately, like ~

We had a game start where I swear to god our Tracer was already about 30m from spawn. Like the doors opened and she was already out there! And then she blinked forward even further, so I was like wtf - and I know I wasn’t lagging since everyone else on the team was still with me, walking out of spawn like normal.

I think I did see a Hanzo with the speed boost you’re talking about, it felt like he was firing much faster than usual and landing shots really regularly - but I know they tinkered with his speed so it’s hard for me to say honestly.

I also recently had a kill feed where I watched a Hanzo inside Hollywood at the popcorn counter shoot an arrow and hit me, through walls and everything right at the beginning of the game. It was absurd.

give us the replay code, then we’ll see

I don’t think I’ve seen any kind of speed hack lately.

Something weird did start happening about 2 weeks ago, though. Every now and then I’ll suddenly get “pushed” up and to one side by about 5m, as though Ball just whacked me or I narrowly missed a Rein charge. Except there’s no one near me. Sometimes it’ll happen twice in a row. I doubt it’s a connection issue because nothing’s changed and I don’t have any strange problems in other games, and my ping is the same as it’s always been.

Also seen some magic bullets lately.

WN5V70 around the 4 minute 15-20 second mark, soldier on the opposing team . keep watching. its subtle hit n to get the first person spectate options.

There’s literally a Lucio in speed stance running near him.

pay attention to his rate of fire, it looked to me like his rate of fire went up a tad

Mmm not really seeing it (could be wrong). Dunno if Lucio affects this, but are you sure his faster weapon woble doesn’t make it look like he has faster fire rate?

it could be a placebo of that iguess

the speed obviously comes from the lucio, and soldier’s fire rate is 9 shots per second and nowhere it looks like its more than that.

i dont even think a speed/fire rate hack is possible really, never heard of that happening on overwatch

Its impossible due to the fact that you would have to physically change the heroes attack rate and that is not possible in public lobbies created by Blizzard.

Custom lobbies however
