Warzone players demand RICOCHET changes with cheaters back in \u201cevery match\u201d ActivisionWarzone players have hit out at Activision and RICOCHET anti-cheat over the number of hackers in Warzone Pacific matches, with many saying there\u2019s as many in Caldera as there were prior to Vanguard\u2019s release. Warzone\u2019s popularity and growth since its March 2020 release has been marred to some extent by the prominence of cheaters. Any Warzone player with a few matches under their belt will have undoubtedly encountered an enemy using wallhacks, aimbot or both. For those reasons, the announcement and implementation of RICOCHET anti-cheat back in December was universally welcomed. However, it has not been the resounding success many hoped and recent reports suggest cheating is just as prevalent as it was prior to the anti-cheat\u2019s launch. One player \u2013 u\/Htowng8r \u2013 said that the number of cheaters they\u2019ve been encountering appeared to be back to their pre-Vanguard levels. They commented: \u201cRebirth is infested again almost every other match has one \u201crage\u201d hackers (i.e. instant target switching kill everyone on the screen) and every match has someone else walling or aimlocking (not blatant crazy target switching). \u201cIt was this bad right before VG launched and Ricochet went live a month later. Now maybe a month after Ricochet it\u2019s back to being insane \u2014 every match has someone cheating. Rebirth is just the easy example, but Caldera definitely has quite a few judging from streamers who run into them every single match.\u201d Other posts echoed similar sentiments, with Redditor Character-Brief-2194 saying that half their matches had noticeable cheaters in them. They said: \u201cI don\u2019t want to hear the fanboys with the \u201cjust cause you lost a gunfight doesn\u2019t mean they hack\u201d. I had 3 games almost back to back with people with names like \u201cyouhackingbro\u201d just dropping piles of kills \u2026walls and aimbot\u2026straight rage hacking. It\u2019s getting pretty bad out there again.\u201d Plenty of other Warzone fans commented to say they had similar experiences. Here\u2019s hoping RICOCHET and Activision can get a grip on the situation moving forwards.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
