Activision again took action against 'Call of Duty: Warzone' cheaters and blocked tens of thousands of accounts.
Without a doubt, the integration of Call of Duty: Warzone with Black Ops Cold War has not turned out as many expected. From the moment both games merged some of their content, the battle royale has been surrounded by controversy due to countless bugs and poorly balanced weapons. In addition, the number of cheating players taking advantage of the battlefield has also increased in recent months.
Of course, Activision is aware of the situation, and they have again taken steps to try to combat it. This week, the company announced the banning of 60,000 players for cheating. This is a brutal figure; it is sure to be among the biggest ban waves in the history of online video games. Following this move, the total number of players banned from Call of Duty: Warzone reached 300,000.
We have zero-tolerance for cheaters in Call of Duty: Warzone. Our goal is to combat both cheats and cheat providers. Today we banned 60,000 accounts for confirmed cases of cheating software use at Warzone, bringing our total to date to more than 300,000 permanent bans worldwide.
The extraordinary figures are the best indication that the problem is quite serious. However, the only downside to kicking out cheaters is that they often come back later with new accounts. And they are users who, being used to playing only with cheats, hardly get rid of them. This is a common behavior among cheaters in Call of Duty: Warzone and other multiplayer titles that suffer from the same problem.
Fortunately, Activision claims to be tackling the root problem. That is, by tracking people who sell cheating software and devices. "We continue our efforts to identify and address cheat vendors, who distribute unauthorized third-party software to modify games or hack. We are committed to providing a fair and fun experience for all players. This is the focus for our teams of security and technology, "they mentioned.
Warzone will also pay attention to your vulnerabilities
Beyond kicking out cheaters and identifying cheat providers, Activision will also address vulnerabilities in Warzone that have opened the door for hackers. Only then can they guarantee that the community is free from these situations. "We know that cheaters are constantly looking for vulnerabilities, and we continue to dedicate resources 24/7 to identify and combat cheats. Including aimbots, wallhacks, trainers, stats hacks, texture hacks, table hacks sorters, injectors, hex editors, and any third-party software used to alter memory or game data, "they concluded.
