A new video shows cheaters using a flying vehicle. The scenes are causing anger and amusement among fans.
The anti-cheat for Call of Duty: Warzone is getting closer and closer. But the cheaters’ methods are apparently becoming more brazen – now they are even flying across the map on a motorbike and killing fellow players. This is shown in a recent video clip, which is currently being discussed on Reddit with a lot of indignation, but also humour.
The flying cheater motorbike
While many popular cheats are quite difficult to detect – such as auto-aim, wallhacking or faster racing – the two cheaters from the video don’t care about secrecy at all. Instead, the two of them fly around on a motorbike. Thanks to the hitbox, they effortlessly kill a player on a roof. He saw the whole thing on the killcam:
When you thought you’ve seen it all. Now hackers have flying guided motorbikes. Activision can you WAKE UP from CODWarzone
Apparently the motorbike can be steered and also the height of the flight can be adjusted. It is possible that the hack makes use of the characteristics of helicopters, which have often caused problems in Warzone.
Players’ reactions are mixed. While some are extremely frustrated at how brazen cheaters have become, others can’t help but laugh.
User MikeV27 writes what many are probably thinking:
“It’s just hilarious by now.”
CarlosG0619 responds:
“Might as well laugh it off, no point in letting it ruin your day. ”
A user who has since deleted his profile garnered a lot of approval with this post:
“Good! I hope cheating gets worse and worse until they are forced to do something about it or until everyone who doesn’t cheat stops playing. I mean, you people all celebrate these streamers who cheat, but act outraged when it’s so obvious. Actually, these streamers are the reason why nothing is being done.”
In fact, there are some streamers who quite openly show that they cheat. Especially on TikTok, a kind of subculture has formed that virtually celebrates cheating. In addition, honest professionals are also regularly accused of cheating and resort to sometimes absurd measures.
The anti-cheat is coming soon
After almost two years, Warzone will soon get the anti-cheat system that many fans have been clamouring for. This comes along with the new Pacific map, which replaces Verdansk and is scheduled to be released before the end of 2021. How effective it is in the fight against hacks and cheats remains to be seen, of course, but many players have high hopes for the announced changes.
There is no concrete release date yet, but we expect it to be at the start of the first joint season with Vanguard – probably around mid-November.
