On Friday, Call of Duty's official update account, @CODUpdates, announced the team's most recent account ban wave, aimed at players using hacks, cheats, and exploits that undermine...
Call of Duty bans more than 14,000 cheaters in 24 hours::undefined
Cheaters really need to just fuck off and do something else with their lives. They are just sad assholes who can’t accomplish anything without cheating. With that lack of integrity, they’d make great CEOs. But with the lack of morality and stick-to-it-ness, I guess they’d fit better as middle management.
Games should make hacker servers or hacker zones where it’s free for all to change your game however you want it. I understand the fin in changing the gameplay of a game to make it new.
I would love a sneaky anti cheating system, where if you are detected the game behind the scenes starts making everyone else’s shot at you 100% headshots 😂 so there you are, trying to cheat, but you can’t get a single shot off because stray bullets are just homing at your noggen!
I love the hilarousness of the idea, but unfortunately aimbots can just auto-fire at the first pixel, while humans won’t even register that you appeared for “long” milliseconds. However, if the game can force other people’s shots at you then I guess it can also force your shots to miss.
Problem is, players reporting other players puts them along with the cheaters in the shadow ban servers. I’ve been shadow banned a number of times and it’s not fun and I don’t cheat.
I recall warzone was exploring a few tricks to disable cheaters while not banning them. Things like them shooting blanks or not being able to see other players.
It’ll always be a game of cat and mouse though. News of a big ban wave just means the cheat makers are on the clock for a fix, and once they update, up goes their revenue.
On the flip side, I’ve been called a hacker and reported (to no avail, thankfully) about 20-40% of the time after I make a semi-decent killshot.
Its not a hack, I can just see you very clearly when you’re running straight from point A to B without using cover. I didn’t use an aimbot, you’ve been standing in that one spot scrolling through your menu so I’ve had plenty of time to aim properly. I also didn’t use an invisibility hack, I’ve been waiting at that corner because I knew you would come charging past.
Then you aren’t one of the people I’m talking about. Personally, I take accusations of hacking or cheating as a compliment, because I know I’m clean and must have had a good game. Although sometimes dipshits will level accusations like that because I got them. Then I tell them to look at the game stats because I wouldn’t be 17-23 if I were cheating. The people who actually do cheat though, double fuck them.

That’s been done before in Minecraft anarchy servers. The results are fascinating
What was the results?
Ever seen what a griefer can do to another players building? Imagine that but on a 100x larger scale
Look up fit-mc on YouTube, he has a ton of videos on the history of the oldest anarchy server in Minecraft.

Or even better, it forces a banana suit on you, so you can carry on playing but everyone knows who you are.
Some already do. You have what’s known as “cheater ques” or “cheater lobbies” where cheaters get shadowbanned to only play against other cheaters
Problem is, players reporting other players puts them along with the cheaters in the shadow ban servers. I’ve been shadow banned a number of times and it’s not fun and I don’t cheat.
Lmao. Sure. That’s the reason

Matchmaking works best when as many people as possible are in the pool to join your match.
Having everyone in the game on the official servers is the way to go and nobody should be modifying the game. It’s unfair.
I feel like the suggestion is more about harm reduction. If you can’t get the cheaters to behave, quarantine them.
I’d rather the freedom of dedicated servers, playing how we want and long after they abandoned the game or disabled matchmaking.
