Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare / Warzone (Battlenet ID's in OP)

scamartist · 13 Oct 2021 at 15:57

Pretty much the only PC game I play currently that I actually enjoy even though I'm not in any way good.
That and the principle of the thing that Activision are quite literally taking the ****.

Its unbelievable pretty much every time I played you would run into blatant hackers who apparently never get banned and I then get banned for spending money in the game and playing normally.

Was looking forward to BF2042 as my diversion from this but didn't think much of the beta.

ANNOUNCING RICOCHET ANTI-CHEAT™: A NEW INITIATIVE FOR CALL OF DUTY
https://www.callofduty.com/blog/2021/10/ricochet-anti-cheat-initiative-for-call-of-duty

Until people like Biffle and Zlaner get the kick, I remain unconvinced!

I really hope it works,Gotta admit though past couple of games i played of Plunder Quads (this morning & this afternoon) had a really good time, Only seemed like one guy was walling from his kill cam.

Would you guys say Battlepass is worth it?

For some reason cheating gets much much worse towards 9.30-10.30pm, during the day doesn't seem so bad actually

Its weird that, I found that too. :confused:

So hang on, Maybe I'm reading this wrong but the The anti cheat will only run on PC players? What about the console players who are also cheating with third party devices?

It is. I normally play during the day but you do notice a difference at night too. I had heard SBMM was stronger at peak times too though.

'Kernel-level driver' **** right off.

Is Armoury broken for anyone else? Selecting it just returns me to the main screen

Why not that's what cheats use. How else would you expect it to compete ? You have to fight fire with fire.

That will come later. From what I saw and read they will need MS for windows and Xbox and Sony to step up hardware detect it just as much as seeing patterns which these makers will be able to change on the fly... iE you miss first 3 bullets then land 7 head shots, next time you shoot it changes that ect ect

Yup, broken for me.

Terrible games tonight, I know I'm not great, but I'm shooting people, ping ping ping hits, then they turn around and I'm dead. Guess all headshots.
Had about 5 games and 0 kills, last week, 3/4 kills per round ave and in top 10 on some.
Perhaps all players in the lobby were super good!

I paid for it once then make certain I get the coins back to pay for the next one

we met some obvious hackers last night but only in plunder

by the time I got to the battle royal was to tired to even focus on the ground loot so played one game and went to bed

Server side algorithms will analyse controller inputs apparently and shadow ban anyone suspected

From the tech presentation, they seemed confident that Cronus and similar were easy to detect because inputs are not human like (too consistent, linear, not random/chaotic enough)

How is this guy not banned I dont know? This is blatant a f aimbotting..

Despite deliberately using potato resolution for their "He's hacking !!111" videos, biffle's aim bot doesn't seem very good does it?

Misses all the time

The crosshair is where he's aiming, ignore that it's off centre in the scope. Scope bounce is visual recoil and part of the game mechanics

Biffle is great at using pre-fire before ADS to win gun fights and jumping to get headshots

Have you ever watched a CDL match? Most of those guys play on controller (COD is a controller game..) and you'll see exactly the same thing from them

It's almost impossible to cheat at a CDL LAN event because you play on tournament hardware with people standing over your shoulder. People try and then get walked off stage.

Warzone tournaments will eventually be LAN events, but given the expense of running them vs doing it online I can understand why no one bothers atm. Bet the kill highlights for big streamers will still be the same though...

Yeah good reminder to uninstall Warzone especially for people like me that don't play anymore.
