Cheating is out of hand Season 21

So 50 games into season 21 and it seems the anti cheat upgrade was a complete bust. It seems every single game of pubs there is someone clearly aimbot and walling. I play at 120fps, wired connection ...

I'm not saying there's no cheating going on in this game, but take early-season experiences with a grain of salt. Every season starts with an mmr reset and the first two weeks or so end up being a matchmaking s**tshow. It's entirely possible that those "all head shot" deaths are legitimate. Or thereabouts. Not to mention that a significant number of good players who left long ago are back now because of the solo mode. That's a lot of talent to wade through before you even get to the cheaters.

It’s not just MMR though, the new anti cheat system is non existent. I’m spectating players who are just locking onto people from 300 yds through walls. I had a teammate who just kept pinging everywhere and knew where every team was when we had zero line of sight. I have players beating a Shelia 1v1 and the death recap is 5 bullets all head shots.

It seemed with the old anti-cheat, after an update or new season it would take the hackers a week or so to update their cheats to the new season, this new anti cheat is just plain nonexistent. You can go on YouTube and get scripts for the new season that were uploaded on launch day. And yes I’m sure the MMR has put me with some good players, sure I’ve been outplayed many times, I’m decent but nothing special at this game, but when people keep knowing exactly where im at without any line of sight, or beaming me with all headshots from 300+ yds, and then you spectate and can clearly see them locking onto people through walls, it’s sad. Cheating has been a problem for the past 2 years, but it seems this season, people seem to understand there is zero repercussions for using blatant hacks and cheats, and this new and improved anti-cheat seems nonexistent. There was a Reddit post I read earlier that showed that the top 5 preds were under level 40……cheating is taking over this game and it’s sad that there seems to be no fix on the horizon.
