Cheaters have no place here! New defense in Call of Duty: Warzone

Блог
Scammers using illegal software to win matches is a serious problem for any online shooter. Not only do these people act unsportsmanlike, but they also spoil the fun for honest players. But the progress of protection against cheaters does not stand still. And in the popular "Battle Royale" Call of Duty: Warzone there is a new Ricochet technology that prevents cheaters from achieving their goals easily.

How the Ricochet anticheat works

The share of cheaters in the game is usually estimated by the number of complaints from users. After the introduction of Ricochet in Call of Duty: Warzone, according to Activision employees, such appeals became record-breakingly few. After all, bypassing the new protection is extremely difficult. To detect pirated software, it analyzes the data coming from different systems. It uses the Damage Shield mitigation method when the cheater is not disconnected from the firefight immediately, but cuts the damage to his weapon. It is possible to understand that the enemy with the illegal software opened fire at you by the health scale - the bullets will decrease it by insignificant number of points.
While the cheater is wondering what's wrong with his gun and why he can't put a headshot, Ricochet examines his computer and the software used to hack the shooter. The account is blocked only after this procedure is completed. The developers assure that their system monitors only those who connect third-party applications during the match, and it will not react to users with high shooting skills. The new protection Call of Duty: Warzone is already active - everyone can see its effectiveness.
