Like pretty much every other multiplayer game around, Warzone has had quite a fair few issues with cheating and hacking since it launched. Everything from god mode to aimbots have been seen in games on Verdansk, and players have demanded that Activision and Raven Software get their house in order and make changes. The developers have been clamping down on hackers and cheats, going after cheat sellers and sending out multiple ban waves across the different in-game seasons. They\u2019ll also be ramping up their security in the future. Speaking following the launch of Verdansk 1984 and the Warzone nuke event, Activision president Rob Kostich confirmed that the Warzone devs have banned nearly 500,000 players for using cheats, but they\u2019re not stopping there. The team is going to ramp up security and also communicate clearer with players too, given that has been one major frustration that has lingered for quite some time. \u201cWe have a dedicated security team. We\u2019re investing more resources there to make sure we provide the best possible experience for our fans,\u201d Kostich told GamesBeat. \u201cWe have to take action, and also communicate about that, which we\u2019re going to do.\u201d Communication was a point Kostich harped on too, as it\u2019s not just in regards to cheating where players criticize the devs, but also in regards to leaks and also surprise weapon changes. He again reiterated that changes are coming. However, in terms of what exact changes are coming for anti-cheat, nobody knows. It could just be Activision hiring more members to work on their security team to process reports, or even coders to come up with better anti-cheat software. We\u2019ll just have to wait and see.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Activision confirm new plans to clamp down on Warzone cheaters ActivisionActivision have confirmed that they\u2019ll be devoting more resources to rooting out cheaters in Warzone and also opening up better lines of communication with frustrated players.
