It\u2019s been pretty well documented that Call of Duty has faced a difficult battle against cheaters over the last few years, as they\u2019ve sprung up all over the place. For a lot of players, hackers and cheats ruined the end of the original Warzone battle royale, but the updates to the Ricochet anti-cheat for Warzone 2 appear to have curbed the damage that cheaters could do. There have been fewer reports of players complaining about cheats following the upgrades, however, with Season 2 on the horizon, a few are just starting to creep back in and players aren\u2019t too pleased. Warzone 2 players claim cheaters are back in a big way That\u2019s right, with the Season 2 update only a week or so away, players have had to tackle an increase in cheaters springing up across Al Mazrah. One Redditor highlighted a clip of them being eliminated from a game, where the enemy\u2019s accuracy was somewhat suspect. They put it to other players to weigh in, and the verdict was overwhelming: they\u2019d been deleted from the match by an aimbot. \u201cMy friend and I have been dying to people using this aimbot fairly often the past few days. Becoming a big issue,\u201d one player said. \u201cCheaters are running rampant again. The last two days have been miserable,\u201d added another. Some players noted that, while they\u2019ve not come up against cheaters themselves, they\u2019ve seen an influx in hacks being advertised and put on display. \u201cTheir streams are all over my TikTok feed,\u201d said another player. As noted, Ricochet has done a solid job in Warzone 2 when it comes to stopping cheaters, but it may require a little tweak heading into Season 2, especially so they don\u2019t ruin the new Ashika Island map.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Warzone 2 players claim cheaters are \u201crampant\u201d again ahead of Season 2 update ActivisionWarzone 2 players say that cheaters are running \u201crampant\u201d ahead of the highly-anticipated Season 2 update, and things are \u201cmiserable\u201d as a result.
