One of the things that happened when Ricochet, the anticheat in-house built for Call Of Duty Vanguard and Warzone, did not live to the expectations as hackers have been able to keep up with all the advantages and much to the dismay of gamers playing nicely and legitimately.
Today, Activision announced a new feature for Ricochet and it is a new “cloaking” measure that makes legitimate players invisible to cheaters. It effectively makes it impossible for cheaters to be competitive during a match, regardless of any illicit software they might be using.
With this, characters, bullets, even sound from legitimate players will be undetectable to cheaters.
Along with the above, there is also a new anti-cheat measure called Damage Shield, which means a cheater’s bullets won’t do any damage to other players.
Finally, Activision acknowledges that the hunt for cheaters continues and since day one, they have been beyond the promise that Ricochet was the eternal solution for cheaters just that Ricochet is trickable unfortunately.
Also, there are still studying new ways that hackers are preparing to cheat to preemptively avoid the cheat to be functional and only we hope that they keep up the race.
