Warzone player frustrated by PS5 cheaters entering games despite turning crossplay off ActivisionA Warzone player has shared footage of a team running down opponents and killing them with riot shields while using cheats and playing on PlayStation 5. The problem with cheating in Call of Duty titles like Warzone and Modern Warfare has been well documented by this point. Some cheaters have even found ways to avoid discovery by RICOCHET, Call of Duty\u2019s proprietary anti-cheat software. As the ways hackers deploy their cheats get more sophisticated, RICOCHET is having a hard time keeping up. Generally, PC players get the brunt of the blame for those using unethical methods to win matches. However, a player shared footage on Reddit of a group of players using cheats on PS5. The footage showed the cheaters running at impossible speeds holding riot shields. Then barreling straight into other players, killing them instantly. \u201cHow is this even possible?\u201d The OP asked. \u201cWait we dealt with this today. I was confused because I was full plated.\u201d Another player experiencing the same situation also replied to the thread. Most users were in accordance, the cheats were \u201cmore than likely\u201d achieved by using a dev kit for the PS5. One user, with the uncannily apt username Riot_Shielder, gave a detailed breakdown of how cheats can be implemented by console players. According to their explanation, these players first use a tool on their PCs allowing them to save cheats as one of the games perks. This lets them inject perks like speed or one hit kills to the game\u2019s classes. When they boot their console up again, the classes with the uploaded cheats are available for them. Players on consoles also \u201ccan\u2019t get shadowbanned\u201d. Apparently allowing them to play with the corrupted class for \u201cas long as they want\u201d. Regardless of the specific method these hackers are using, it seems that even turning off crossplay won\u2019t necessarily stop Warzone players from encountering cheaters.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
