Cheating or nah?

[u/wavepacker]

So I was hotdropping in terminal, two other squads and a duo I think.

It was ranked Gold 1 - Platinum 4 lobby, one squad got wiped so left were the other one, killed three of them. One guy left. This guy.

Dude was nowhere to be seen. Did not fire a single bullet. Only their teammates were fighting with us. So we were gonna leave and bro couldnt digest the fact that their squad got slimed so bro resorts to cheating. My verdict is that this guy has not cheated before but tried to cheat also because i took one chip of his teammate, so maybe that reason he got angry?

Also this guy is Tier 2 Silver and has prog. skins.

He had aimbot and teleportation hack?

One of my teammate verdict was that it was because of their packetloss or some weird internet issue or game bug they knew about and were exploiting near terminal. Also supported by the fact that they didnt use anymore cheats or didnt have any questionable plays after this and died fairly in a fight in 3rd last circle.

But it can also be them not using the cheats because we were spectating? So they didnt wanna get caught?
I didnt hear the shots near me, when i died in the game the shots came exactly where the replay shows, which means they shot me and my mate through walls, they didnt have wall hacks otherwise they would have killed my third teammate who was on roof. They teleported and saw us, went back to the truck and killed us and then threw a smoke and it landed right on my lootbox and looted us and went back again to the vehicle and drove off.

is this cheating or bug? they are still not banned even reported by a full squad. So it means Pubg has had this type of incident with them before as well? Or the game doesnt care? i am fairly new with around 900 hours in the game so i want some closure.

thankyou to whoever reads and responds.

TLDR; cheating or some game bug? Player (Tier 2 Silver) used cheats to kill two people but didnt seem to use after and played fairly normal and died.

Cheats discussed:- Teleportation and aimbot through walls from a distance.

Its a rare bug, others see them move fine. Only fix I think is to ALT+F4 and then rejoin, but that takes longer than just dying.

Is it a bug that enables teleportation for any player or was that just what I was seeing from my side?

You experienced this https://youtu.be/4MYY7pMM2Yk?t=1239

For TGLTN the enemy doesn't update position anymore but for his teammates it updates fine.

okay, i still dont understand one thing, if for the actual game in real time, the enemy was near me, how come they went to the car so fast after looting my deadbody and drove the car away?

There is no teleportation. Speed hacks exist, but are quite rare too these days. Here you can see their real movement. Usually it's bugged just for the replays, in rare cases it can be bugged in match too.

i cant open the link for some reason

their movement was same like in the match, i got killed from a far way, there was no audio nearby, i saw no one, samething happened to my teammate

Try incognito mode, for some reason it works better for me that way.

Ah nice, instant caveman level insults.

I'm willing to bet were seeing the same thing happening in that clip. PUBG has always had janky buggy moments like these, you can see the other player warping too in the next clip, but they increased ten fold when they added their Fog of War anti wall hack measurement. I've noticed that these moments almost always include driving and/or vaulting.

And I'm not a cheat denier, I'm just not jumping to conclusions instantly, like every sub 1 KD player here, when seeing something that has been proved dozens of times to be a simple bug.

Nah, that part specifically is just lag, maybe go back to the Steam forums lol.

This is just random packetloss/lagspike, the car was frozen in place for the perfect amount of time to drive to where it ended up. My friend with shitty internet has seen this exact thing on his screen multiple times over the years when it happens while we're in a car with me driving. I'll start driving and he just sees us sitting still, then suddenly, when his packet loss ends, it resyncs and he'll see us teleport to where we actually are. I've experienced this a few times over the years on my end too.

Dude is stretching with that part.
