Now, people are wondering what that means for other high-K\/D accounts. There have been a lot of rumors about Warzone\u2019s in-game mechanics to counter hackers. While people know that hackers are supposed to be banned, there have also been questions about how they\u2019re countered in the game itself. In the past, some have thought that \u2018bullet reg\u2019 (when bullets that hit an enemy actually register as hitting them in-game) was influenced by player skill. Now, an extreme version of that seems to have been confirmed. While streaming, JoeWo got into a gunfight with a hacker. Despite the game suggesting bullets were hitting him, though, he was surprised to find out that the hacker did literally zero damage. Warzone anti-cheat makes hacker do zero damage Ricochet Anti-Cheat W. Ran across a cheater that couldn&#8217;t kill me because his bullets weren&#8217;t registering. Watch my health while I&#8217;m fighting it made it seem like I was getting FRIED. pic.twitter.com\/3hfvkFXIzG \u2014 JoeWo (@AverageJoeWo) January 17, 2022 In the clip, you can see JoeWo fighting someone and his screen being splattered with red markers \u2013 showing that bullets are hitting him. Despite that, he\u2019s able to push through the shots and down the enemy. Afterward, Joe sits there shocked for a second, before reacting with \u201cthat guy\u2019s cheating.\u201d Going further, he explains \u201che hit me like 50 times and my health didn\u2019t go down \u2026 that is proof that cheaters are getting silent aim where their bullets aren\u2019t reg\u2019ing.\u201d While some hackers are already upset that their cheats aren\u2019t working so well, JoeWo posted this clip on Twitter, calling it a \u201cRicochet Anti-Cheat W.\u201d Warzone punishing high-K\/D players? For those of you that think skill based hit reg isn\u2019t a thing look at what the anti cheat does.. lmao It\u2019s implemented into the game and is 100% a thing https:\/\/t.co\/q2C8RFjfcg \u2014 Gavin (@xUnrational) January 17, 2022 Other Warzone streamers have used this video to dive into further speculation, though. If the game is able to make it so that hackers\u2019 bullets don\u2019t actually register, UnRationaL says that is proof of \u201cskill-based hit reg.\u201d It\u2019s good that the game is able to nerf hackers, but there\u2019s a question of what this means for legitimate high-K\/D players. The concern is that, if you have a monstrous K\/D just because you\u2019re good at the game, you could falsely be nerfed with worse hit reg.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Warzone anti-cheat shown in action as hacker does zero damage during fight ActivisionCall of Duty: Warzone\u2019s anti-cheat was demonstrated live as streamer JoeWo fought a hacker and discovered he was taking zero damage.
