The star-studded trio dropped into one of Warzone\u2019s more popular drop-zones, Airport. They were wiped out moments later. With pinpoint headshots and wall-bangs leaving them no chance, they had clearly fallen victim to hackers. After sitting in stunned silence for nearly a minute, Nadeshot launched into an impassioned tirade aimed at Infinity Ward. In particular, he said he \u201ccouldn\u2019t believe\u201d the triple-A devs had skipped adding anti-cheat measures to Warzone. \u201cI just can\u2019t believe that you create a free battle royale game, and don\u2019t come to the market, when you release the game, with an anti-cheat software. Their solution is having a security team manually review hackers\u2019 accounts,\u201d Nadeshot said. The 100T founder was referencing Infinity Ward\u2019s March 31 blog on the topic, which revealed how they were combating hackers. Apparently, the devs have security teams watching 24\/7, and then manually banning hacking offenders. Nadeshot wasn\u2019t impressed, at all. There are already more than 30 million players registered to the game, he said, which means they need to do more. It\u2019s a \u201cgreat achievement,\u201d but they\u2019re going to let it slip away if they do nothing.

Those five guys over there in that corner of this office on the third floor, they\u2019re gonna be in charge of fending off hackers worldwide,\u201d he continued. \u201cIt\u2019s Call of Duty\u2026 [they\u2019re] a triple-A publisher. You know what? We don\u2019t need software that can stop players from logging on with hacking abilities, with aimbots, with wall radar\u2026 It\u2019s going to ruin the entire experience.\u201d Nadeshot added one final barb for the MW devs too: he invoked Riot\u2019s much-praised decision to build upcoming FPS release Valorant with anti-cheat designs from the beginning. Infinity Ward could learn a lot from them, he said. \u201cI love this game, and I don\u2019t want it to die out because of people hacking,\u201d he said, and pointed to the League devs\u2019 first steps into the genre as a highwater mark the Call of Duty franchise should learn from in regards to hacking. \u201cRiot has literally developed their game from the ground up with anti-cheats,\u201d the 100T star explained. \u201cThey understand the amount of integrity involved in games where people want to be competitive in the game.\u201d This isn\u2019t the first time the former OpTic superstar has sounded off on how Infinity Ward are managing Call of Duty\u2019s new battle royale either. On March 25, Nadeshot took a swipe at the decision to put skill-based matching in Warzone. For now, the devs haven\u2019t responded, and likely won\u2019t. Season 3 is now on the horizon for the title, along with plenty of changes. Keep your fingers crossed Infinity Ward will roll out some kind of anti-cheat measure during the new season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nadeshot urges Infinity Ward to fix Warzone hacking before it\u2019s too late YouTube: 100 Thieves \/ Infinity WardMatthew \u2018Nadeshot\u2019 Haag has begged Infinity Ward to do something about the overload of hacking in Warzone, and warned if they don\u2019t implement \u201csome kind of anti-cheat software\u201d soon, the battle royale would \u201cdie out.\u201d The 100 Thieves [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-29779","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29779","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=29779"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29779\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29779"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=29779"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dejan.au\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=29779"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
