Escape from Tarkov is a hardcore FPS game that revolves around a battle between two private military companies. While it is filled with complex mechanics, nothing justifies and compares to getting killed by a hacker. And that too in a competitive match. Even with all of your skills summed up, you cannot defeat a cheater with invincible hacks. But you can spot one to report him. So, here’s our guide on how to spot cheaters in Escape from Tarkov.
How to Spot Cheaters in Escape from Tarkov
The hackers or cheaters plague the gameplay with their unfair cheating tactics. We have compiled some of the hacks or cheats that these cheaters use during raid matches. Mentioned below are all the hacks used by the cheaters and how to spot them:
Speed Hack
You can never see this hack coming as they travel at such supersonic speed. Popular Twitch streamer, Shroud, confirmed that the hackers can do anything in Escape from Tarkov. One of the hackers used a speed hack to walk extremely fast in a match. So, when you see an enemy moving at an unbelievable and suspicious speed, they are using this hack.
Radar Hack in Escape from Tarkov
This particular hack has been used by numerous cheaters during competitive raids. The hackers that use this cheat have the advantage to access every stat of the players. This stat includes the ammunition, present health, equipped weapons, current level, and more. There is a simple way to spot such hackers. If you see an unknown enemy rushing toward you when you are in low health, they might have used this hack. Also, these players using the hack usually don’t have any backup around them.
Aim Botting
You may have heard of these games while playing several FPS games (might have even used them). Aim botting allows cheaters to shoot and kill players with 100% accuracy. All they need to do is shoot and the aim will automatically kill the targeted players. We know it’s unfair but it is perhaps the most used cheat or hack in any game. The only way to spot them is to check their accuracy. If it’s consistently accurate and the player’s killing all of their targets, it might be an Aim bot user.
For example, one of the hackers used a single bullet to kill the entire squad. This is not a skillful play but a hack.
Invincibility or God Mode
As the name already suggests, it grants the cheaters in the game all the advantages. Players can fly over to places with their infinite health or ammo. One way to spot these cheaters will be to keep on hitting the suspicious players. If the bullets fail to damage the player, they are using the invincibility hack.
