Warzone continues to be ruined by the ongoing hacking issue, which has caused many players and Call of Duty content creators to stop playing the game altogether. One of those players is popular streamer Nick \u2018NICKMERCS\u2019 Kolcheff, who recently quit the game in favor of Apex Legends. Nick\u2019s departure from Warzone certainly came as a surprise to many of his fans, but it was a decision that was not taken lightly. TimTheTatman is another streamer who also shares Nick\u2019s concerns over the current state of the game. In fact, both Nick and Tim recently sat down to discuss everything from Warzone\u2019s cheating problem, pro tournaments, content creation, and the jump to Apex Legends. Nick and Tim on the state of Warzone Despite Activision shutting down various cheat websites, the number of hackers playing the game continues to rise. The problem has reached breaking point in Season 4 and with no signs of a fix in sight, Warzone content creators are voicing their concerns over the future of the battle royale title. \u201cI hate that I love this game, I really do. It looks like they don\u2019t care, right?\u201d explained Tim. However, Nick wasn\u2019t going to pull his punches on the subject matter. \u201cI don\u2019t think you can say that,\u201d replied Nick. \u201cIt looks like, no it is just is that. I\u2019m not trying to be too much of a d*ck about it, but at the end of the day, with the kind of bread they\u2019re bringing in \u2013 those issues shouldn\u2019t be a thing. Where\u2019s the Tweet? Where\u2019s the communication we talked about?\u201d While Raven Software and Activision have stepped up their communication regarding weapon balancing and wider bug fixes, the developers have remained eerily quiet on the hacking issue. This is in direct contrast to other BR titles like Apex Legends, which constantly has developers interacting with their playerbase. If things weren\u2019t bad enough, the hacking problem has also made its way into the tournament scene. \u201cEvery single tournament, I died to a f**king hacker and it just sucked it right out of me man. I got so mad, I was off-stream pacing. Like, I can\u2019t do it. I\u2019m too competitive, it f*cks with everything about me,\u201d said Nick. Casual games are also a no-go for Nick as every lobby is now filled with players using aimbots, wallhacks, and other game-breaking exploits. While both Nick and Tim have seen success switching over to Apex Legends, there are a lot of CoD only content creators that don\u2019t have that luxury. \u201cI really feel for people that make their earnings off of tournaments and stuff like that,\u201d says Tim. \u201cI\u2019m just like a content creator, right? I\u2019ll play in tournaments and I\u2019ll have fun, but ultimately, that\u2019s not the thing I\u2019m really counting on.\u201d Whether both Nick and Tim will stream the new Warzone Season 5 update remains to be seen, but for now, both players clearly aren\u2019t happy with the current state of the game. In the meantime, expect plenty of Apex streams until Activision improves Warzone\u2019s lackluster anti-cheat.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NICKMERCS claims Warzone devs \u201cdon\u2019t care\u201d because it makes so much money NICKMERCSThe cheating problem is Warzone continues to ruin every aspect of the game, so both NICKMERCS and TimTheTatman sat down to discuss the current state of the BR title.
