The elliit danks sex videosBlack Ops 6 and Warzone devs have revealed how they’re cracking down on cheaters in both games, including a new KillCam feature that lets players identify them more clearly.
Cheating is an issue that affects virtually every online multiplayer title, as players look to gain an advantage by using prohibited software. Call of Duty is no exception, and hackers have been a recurring problem throughout the lifecycle of Black Ops 6 and Warzone.
Activision have been fighting back, though, as they’ve previously shut down major cheat providers and even introduced features that make them easier to detect. Now, in Season 3 Reloaded, there’s another useful system to help you decide if the enemy who killed you is playing fair.

Since the Season 3 Reloaded update went live in Warzone, KillCams have provided players with extra information on how they died. In the Death Widget, on top of the number of enemies that shot you and how much damage was done, you’ll now see if your location was revealed by Perks and Equipment.

- A Heartbeat Sensor
- A teammate being used as a Body Shield
- A Resurgence Mark
- Prox Alarm
- Most Wanted Contract
ActivisionWith this extra information, players have a better understanding of how they were tracked down and whether the enemy is legit. If none of these appear on the KillCam, but the rival player still knew exactly where you were from an impossible instance, it’s possible they were using wallhacks or another form of cheat.

The same blog also gave an update on how the hacking issue is being clamped down on. More than 150 cheat sellers have been shut down thanks to RICOCHET, including over 20 during Black Ops 6’s lifespan and five since the start of Season 3 alone.
They’ve also looked to tackle cheaters who make new accounts after being banned, a common issue in free-to-play games like Warzone. Since the start of Season 2, RICOCHET has managed to ban ‘new’ profiles within four matches on average if they’re found to be cheating.

While it’s almost impossible to completely solve the issue, these are all undoubtedly steps in the right direction. It couldn’t have come at a better time, either, as Ranked Play has finally returned to Warzone.
