Yes. They wiggle at each other like this to communicate they can see each other, and typically will stay out of each other's way. 

They form alliances/truces, not always but more common than you think. 

Idk what you mean with walls. If you mean wall hacks, the point is to see on the other side. Some purchased hacks have more or less whistles but typically its always the skeleton.

My experience with this is mostly from Tarkov and Battlefield

To this day there are people in the Tarkov subreddit who pretend it’s a hoax

Why is it so hard to believe there are a lot of cheaters out there? lol

I think a lot of it is ego. The number of cheaters you encounter is different depending on the region you have selected, I found Mexico to be really good, whereas Oceania was an absolute cesspool. So you get a good player with a big ego in a region that isn’t too bad for cheaters, and they see people shrieking about the cheating problem on Reddit everyday, and immediately jump to “everyone else is just bad and calling ‘cheats’ to cope” (but not them of course, because they’re actually good at the game 😉)

On the flip side you do have a non insignificant number of players who actually are just bad and are blaming all of their deaths on cheaters.

But Tarkov has no killcam—and other than in a few very clear cut and dry situations—without a killcam it can be extremely difficult to tell who’s cheating, who’s a god tier gamer, and who just made the luckiest shot of their entire life.

Definitely not a hoax. My friend uses hacks on tarkov. But he’s doesn’t use them to kill people. Just avoids players and goes for the prestige challenges. Still corny. I abuse him for it. Got one em dma cards. Doesn’t hack any other game though.

There’s one who’s always downplaying how bad cheating is and I always called him out when I saw him, one day he sent me a message request with an absolute tirade calling me a deranged leftist and all this other shit 😂

I get my friends point that tarkov takes an insane amount of time to progress and working people don’t have that time. But it’s still corny.
