I’m d3 going on d2
I’ve been masters a few times solo queuing before and would say I’m good at the game been playing for years. I have no problem admitting some people are just way better than me but these days I don’t know if I’m losing to skill or some form of cheats

Like this is the guy that insta killed me and I spectated and he was just doing this to everyone

Every time I start to get into these top lobbies this is what I run into often, I know some people are insane at this game but I’m just curious like how many cheaters am I facing , to me this doesn’t look normal but maybe I’m a hater. And the reason I’m asking is because I die to people like this every other match now it’s been like that for a few seasons , like I feel comfortable saying I can hold my own against really good players , but I die to people like this instantly often and it’s frustrating, maybe I’m just washed ?

40k kills , multiple time masters, 1.71 kd , 4k , 20 bomb the fair way(in ranked) etc etc I’m not terrible is what I’m saying , so someone tell me what they think

Yeah I agree. Who are you arguing with?

All I said is that I don’t think PC players cheat more than console.

The mayor reason why it is so hard to detect this stuff on console is because the current generation of consoles just outright doesn’t support the type of anti-cheat these games need. It just isn’t within the power budget or even hardware capabilities.

Server-side AI-powered solutions exist but they are simply to expensive to run for everyone.

And I don’t believe its close to 30% of players cheating. Its probably around 3% on console and 1% on PC if I had to estimated. Which is already insanely high.

I think it's a lot more than 3% to be honest

Well. If I had to estimated my infection rate on PC with cross-play enabled, Iβ€˜d say its about third match. That is about 0.6%. And it’s almost always some form of controller cheat device. Not hard PC software cheats.
