CoD Vanguard players frustrated as cheaters are already ruining matches ActivisionCheaters are already running rampant in Vanguard multiplayer and players are desperate for the implementation of Activision\u2019s new anti-cheat system, Ricochet. In recent years, the use of third-party software has become a serious issue in Call of Duty, with hackers taking over Warzone and ruining matches in Black Ops Cold War. Now Vanguard has finally released, the issue has been passed onto the next game in the franchise, and players becoming more and more frustrated as each day goes by. While Activision\u2019s brand new anti-cheat is partly installed into the game, the full version has not been rolled out yet, and it\u2019s certainly showing with the number of aimbots being used in multiplayer. Cheaters already taking over Vanguard multiplayer While Ricochet\u2019s server-side anti-cheat is on at the release of Vanguard, the kernel-level driver for PC is scheduled to come out later in the year. Players are hoping when this system is fully implemented into the game, Activision will be able to clear out multiplayer and prevent third-party software from ruining matches. However, for the time being, hackers are running rampant in Vanguard, as showcased by MrQuackerton on the COD Vanguard subreddit. After peeking a corner, they\u2019re seemingly eliminated out of nowhere, but after a look at the killcam, it\u2019s obvious the other player is using cheats. Despite there being a lot of excitement for the full release of Ricochet, a lot of players are still convinced the full system won\u2019t resolve Vanguard\u2019s cheating issue completely: \u201cI mean, ricochet won\u2019t be proactive either. you\u2019ll still run into cheaters that play a bit before they\u2019re banned.\u201d Others are disappointed that Activision has opted for kernel-level and have even claimed they won\u2019t be buying the game because of it: \u201cIt\u2019s literally why I\u2019m not buying the game. I can\u2019t in good conscience support kernel-level stuff as an IT guy.\u201d Either way, for the majority of players, they just want to play an online match on Vanguard and not get beamed from across the map by a cheater. Hopefully, the full roll-out of Ricochet will achieve this, and keep multiplayer competitive and fair.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
