Warzone dev says Ricochet anti-cheat will get better with future updates ActivisionThe Call of Duty: Warzone devs say that the Ricochet anti-cheat is going to \u201cget better and better\u201d as they continue their fight against cheaters, but they\u2019ve got to remain coy on what exactly might change. Warzone\u2019s cheating epidemic has been well-documented to this point, with many players turning their back on the Call of Duty battle royale after coming across one too many hackers. Raven Software and Activision have tried to stamp the cheating problem out with regular ban waves and the arrival of the Ricochet anti-cheat. The kernel-level anti-cheat has struck down many players already, but some fans want it to go much further as the battle royale keeps evolving \u2013 with some hoping that they\u2019ll never see cheaters again. Following the Season 2 Reloaded update, streamer Tyler \u2018Teep\u2019 Polchow spoke with Warzone creative lead Josh Bridge about the possibility of rotating between Verdansk and Caldera, a future ranked mode, as well as some other changes that may appear down the line \u2013 which included improvements to the Ricochet system. The former Call of Duty pro asked Bridge about his thoughts on Ricochet\u2019s performance so far, and whether or not the developers have plans to keep expanding it as they move forward. \u201cOverall, we\u2019re absolutely happy with it,\u201d Bridge said, noting that previously the developers would have to \u201cscramble and plug holes\u201d when a cheat arose, but that\u2019s changed with a dedicated team. \u201cAnd, it keeps getting better because we find new ways that cheaters are finding a different sort of loophole or a hack and we plug it up, and we move forward. \u201cWe can\u2019t be fully transparent on it because we\u2019re also trying to protect the players without actually disclosing what we\u2019re doing, and it\u2019s not to be nefarious, it\u2019s to literally protect fair play. So, it\u2019s going to keep growing and get better and better, I\u2019m excited about it.\u201d Timestamp of 32:25 As Bridge notes, the devs do have to keep their cards close to their chest as to not rip off cheat creators on what they might be targeting next. While some players hope that cheaters would never pop up in matches, it is difficult to completely wipe them out, but the number of them should drastically reduce over time.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
