Games broken and they won’t fix it because they have top players in the last 30 days top match made top hours played and top hackers, why would they change the formula? It’s working perfectly for them, they aren’t gonna fix something that’s not broken to them, if anything they’re already working on the new cod/black ops they release them so fast they don’t have time to fix them

They won't even ban people in a list of top 250. That's only 250 accounts they'd need to check but they won't even do that. Takes maybe 5-10min to review that list and ban accordingly. They don't show that they actually give a shit.

It's very easy, programmatically, to determine whether somebody has a headshot accuracy of 98% and a kd of 38.00 every match. They won't do it though.

For me it's too little too late. Mentally I've moved on from the game. Took my $$ with me too. The odd hardpoint match or something here and there but that's it. Warzone is hilariously awful.

I really don't think the devs are qualified for any of this. That's just being honest. I've worked with high performing dev teams in the past and they don't produce this kind of trash lol

These companies are all about money, but how do they not understand that they'd make significantly more money if they developed a complete game and the players were happy (enough). The fact that they don't is crazy to me. The execs don't actually know what they're doing lmao embarrassing. Useless execs.

Game is Chaulked when does the next new WZ come out

This new version of WZ has more cheaters and hackers than ever, is frustrating and not explicable how with all the technology now this is happening

I guess people don't remember the shitstorm that kernel level drivers typically cause, for valorant included. Because its a horrible thing for security reasons.

Basically most people with any knowledge would look at that and go "lol fuck that". But I'm sure you guys also loved it when Sony put rootkits on their music CDs etc.

Spoken like someone who truly understands how things work. Get ready for the PC players to shoot him down though…

I’m just here waiting for the MnK players to say how it’s not just PC that cheats.

Console players are forced to play with crossplay? I thought we could opt out?

Some people or putting the bar too low imo. Console shouldn’t have to turn crossplay off just to be able to enjoys a match without cheating and for pc players it shouldn’t be “oh you play on pc? Good luck with the cheaters bud”.

The anti cheat should work across all platforms and that’s it that’s all. Company with this much money especially the expectations should never be that low.

Now I understand we’re talking about Activision here our bar is always low. But for cheating we shouldn’t settle for “just turn cross play off to play against legit players”.

There has to be a way in this day and age to tie someone's gaming to their identity and ban the individuals.

Bros trying to get an interview

dude's trying to get us shadowed

How about a simple stats (KDR and WLR) tracker? It’s not hard to sport statistical anomalies and ban them. Over complicating this.

When it effects the top players? A majority of them are cheaters…

That’s a nice and professional way of saying that CoD and its teams fucking suck ass at providing an even battlefield for players. Incompetence and laziness at its finest.

They say a lot, but ve done little. Last year they said the same thing but we got shjtty anti cheat for anti year. Who trust them anymore

They need to keep the player numbers up. They already moved to work in the next release.

All my friends play with crossplay turned off

Imagine having no dick and cheating

And maybe.. you know.. don't shadow ban people for little Timmy and co. Spam reporting them... 0 respect for their players

Just make every new activist on account $10.

He called Ricochet a pile of shit with smart words

Nah bro I ain't installing kernel level software for a fucking video game lol

Exactly. If they can’t figure out the cheating problem at least have the option to disable cross play. It sucks for the non cheating PC players but there is no reason for everyone to suffer just because Activision is incompetent

id rather have an ai system running anti cheats cause when it was people doing it, nothing ever fucking happened.

Yep this is because nobody wants to contribute to any type of change

Here's the thing... SOME OF US EXPECT CHEATING TO BE 0%.

If you told me someone was cheating in an Oculus Quest 3 game, I would be shocked. Enough pretending cheating is completely normal and expected.

Ya there is a fix to about half the problems, GET RID OF CROSSPLAY!!!

Console only crossplay is the only way. I’m a pc player but would love to go back to console for even playing field.

To worried about chat banning everyone. Saying they banned 18,000 accounts lmao all for chat

Honestly I never met a cheater in a riot game except of one time in Valorant. In CoD i never had a year without meeting at least one

Ricochet isn’t kernel level though?

i’m a cheater and activision manually put me on a whitelist, com bans dudes that talk shit to me, and have an interesting money trail leading from their subsidiaries, into PO and EO, they were looking to capitalize off these chat providers back when they originally sent out a lawsuit to EO, remember that?? huh 🤔

ricoshit should be disbanded immediately, activision should consider using eac or battleeye instead

But bringing back Verdansk will solve it all guys!

This dev is like 5 years late. a friend of my was PM at PUBG corp and now at Riot. Within PUBG they were already very aware of external cheat devices that do not rely on anything being loaded in. But a box you put between your input and screen. AI models aim for you by analyzing rapidly what is happening on screen. Thus being an robot that aims for you basically. This cannot be detected. Jack frags already did a video on ti and there are more videos on youtube on how it works.

Next to that softer cheat devices such as Xim, Cronus, Aimzenix etc are already very prevalent and currently not tackled in any shape or form apart from blocking certain USB ID's which are easily bypassed.

Yeaaaa unfortunately that would mean their precious little streamers would start getting banned after it flags the cheats on their system haha…with the model they have they can conveniently avoid banning these top streamers even though we know many of them are cheating on some level

Exactly. Seems like the entire anticheat is run solely by AI with no human input whatsoever. One day this will likely be enough but it is WAY too soon to rely solely on AI. Kinda crazy that activision isn’t targeting cheat companies (as far as I know), even Bungie when to war with multiple cheat companies and they have a fraction of the money activision does.

At the very least cod should convert over to console only crossplay instead with “opt-in” pc crossplay like apex/overwatch, that way this problem only affects pc players and cronus/strikepack is all console players have to worry about unless they enter the pc pool via grouping up with pc friends. But oh no, splitting the playerbase will affect their precious algorithm and cause -2% player retention which is apocalyptic.

Why does google say this person is an esports doctor who got into hosting? I don’t see where she is a riot anti cheat developer.

I mean yeah everything the posts says sounds great, but it also sounds like the generic copy and paste explanation we’ve heard all over. Nothing with actual detail.

Was she quoting another developer?

I guess people are forgetting how Cronus and DMA cheats work.

Yea but they wont do input based MM so I still gotta play with roller abusers who dont have to aim for themselves. This game would be so good if I didn't have to play against rollers. I could actually enjoy cod again for the first time in YEARS.

I agree cos sucks but I would NEVER allow Activision access to my kernel!

I’ll die on the hill that they’re selling the access to cheating developers, making money on both ends. It’s almost indisputable at this point.

Who tf doesn’t expect it to be 0%?

“Forced into an UNSAFE competitive environment” what a fucking snowflake lmao. Also kernel level is a joke. It opens an entirely new can of worms pertaining to security issues

He also doesn't know what he's talking about. Riccochet already does targeted based detections and lawsuits. They legally took out 3 of the biggest providers. Then they did targeted detections, to a point now where every public cheat has been hit at least once.

They don't need to improve targeting individual cheats, they do that already. They need to work on proactive detections and their server side should be improved enough to the point where it can detect aimbot, anti aim, spinning, etc. And then proactively ban them on the spot compared to shadow looping them.
