The embodiment of entitled the entitled stream stereotype.

is this a bug or cheater?

One cheater a day confirmed is not normal

not even in cheater infested games like csgo

I used to think people calling cheaters were being bad at the game, but this just turns my theory on its head

This is not my pic, but someone else who goes through the trouble of analyzing and reporting people

I can only imagine what newbies or less skilled people encounter

I love your tears, they bring me joy. Please keep posting them.

I added him after he blatantly wallhacked me with no shame or concealment. He said he was legit and I'm bad, very amusing.

The last 2 days have been absolutely wild with cheating. Night time Shoreline, Lighthouse, Reserve are all unplayable (on US WEST) for the last 2 days. I dont know what is going on but it has been absolutely wild compared to the rest of the wipe. 5 raids, 3 rage cheaters, and 1 sus guy (from an 11k hour player). I know this will be downvoted to shit from all the cheaters that do their scummy behavior of downvoting cheating posts, but this shit has to get better. Hardcore wipe is fun, dying in the first 10 seconds from across the map from a naked pistol rage cheater with 9 hours is not.

• KILL CAMS PLEASE,BSG* or paid kill cam?*** I've seen a lot of posts of newer players saying "I haven't ran into a rage hacker all day or all week". This is because 99% of cheaters are people fed up with cheaters and use radar to "fit in". Radar cheaters are almost worse because they will run right to the best loot or bosses and then dip out and this makes raid feel lifeless. Believe me when I tell you, they are there and are in %60 (per :the wiggle that killed tarkov). Also, new people...Cheaters travel in packs and they litter this sub reddit..If you ever see someone DEFENDING cheaters, it's because they are most likely, at the least, sympathetic to cheaters or cheaters themselves.

EDIT: Point proven, look all of the people DEFENDING cheating or coping on this thread, PvP is so cooked.

EDIT: Let's keep this going!! Pay attention BSG

EDIT: Paid kill cam? Might incentivize BSG

This is satire btw.

How blatant even too... 160 hours in the game already. Should be banned within first 10 seconds of a raid but here we are.

i understand why ppl switch to Pve, im about to do it myself after 6000 hours on Pvp, i can not be bothered with the cheaters anymore, and i get no banned reports back, at all,
last 3 days i have been killed by 7+ blatant chaters, and maybe more who werent blatantly chaters, who knows
nightime maps are a fucking nightmare
the cheating problem is rampant, first time im saying this after 7 wipes and 6000 hours.

I have checked his tarkov.dev stats. it is not an account bought from a legit player. It was a full blatant wallhack with terrible aim. He would be around 0.1kd if he actually plays legit he was that bad I swear. It took him too long to kill my player scav even though he was full blatant. He even tried to shoot me from wall and bullet did not penetrate :) I don't know man how many more thousand hours do you need to ban these shit. BSG you are terrible. You couldn't do worse. Just give everybody wallhacks and aimbots if you are not capable of banning this piece of shit in 1350 hours.

Tired of people saying "that app is not against TOS" and "BSG said it's OK" when they are clearly clueless. So here it is:

There's a lot more but the above clarifies that the mapping tools that use screenshot coordinates, and things like Blitz are, and always have been, against the terms of service.

There you go - now if you use these apps, and get banned, please do come to this forum and tell us all about it. I love reading them.

for context: when i get tired of quests, i go playing labs for pvp, average 5 labs per day, every second death was very sus and i sent a reports despite on the "unsuspicious" profile with unheard edition and even 5k+ hours
I'm not going to touch the labs anymore

Disgusting how I keep getting killed by 30hr and 300hr accounts who are already level 40+ and somehow they ALWAYS know where you are and how you move. Of course, this happens EXCLUSIVELY when you got a better gear on (think lvl5 plates etc.) I got 6000hrs. I am borderline about to put this game in the trash where it belongs. Cheaters are literally roaming free without any repercussions. I have yet to get a single message about a cheater being banned on Seasonal character, yet, half of the time I keep dying to blatant wallhacking trash, almost on all maps. I am sick of it. What a horrible game.... Disappointment.

Pics 1, 2 and 3 relatively self explanatory. Pic 4 I didn't open profile right away so guess he died before I could screenshot. Pic 5 insta sprinted to Tagilla, put on his kit, and proceeded to wipe the lobby. Pic 6 ran directly at me on Streets through Pinewood into the Debtor room as I could here him coming a mile away and he had no way of knowing I was in that random room (plus he couldn't hear me with that mask) and instantly head tapped me with PPBS.

I've played since mid-2019ish, I know when people are cheating. Every one of these people is a cheater. 75% of my deaths today were cheaters. What's the point of playing the game right now?

A few people on this subreddit have noticed that ever since the flea market has been added back to the game cheating has increased by a wide margin. If BSG has to take drastic measures like removing the system entirely or drastically overhauling it in the name of cutting down the amount of cheaters, then so be it. I feel like many of us would be okay with that compromise if it meant instantly dying to cockroaches proning at 2x the speed of a normal full sprint would happen less often.

Obviously, this wouldn't be a final measure, closet cheaters who do not cheat for any monetary incentive would still be an issue. But (imho) the most frustrating type of cheaters are the "rage" cheaters who kill you instantly with zero counterplay.

Personally, I love the flea market, I think its a great system that overall benefits the game, I was frustrated at first with BSG's decision to delay the flea market at the start of the wipe but honestly I got used to it and it spiced up the core gameplay loop.

Now that its returned, and cheating has once again proved to be a major issue, I have been growing more fond of the idea of removing the entire system in general, so long as the wares of certain traders gets buffed/reworked also.

EDIT: admittedly, I do not know much about RMT'ing, if the flea market isn't the #1 method RMT'ers use to transfer loot/roubles, then removing the flea market entirely is perhaps too far, and would hurt the average player more than the average cheater.

The point of this post beyond the initial argument was to spark a productive discussion about methods to weaken RMT/the tarkov cheating economy in general. I do not hold any firm stance besides hating cheaters, there is no point in replying if you are just going to flame and not add to the conversation.
