    Region lock China.

    50% of my matches today had blatant cheaters that were advertising a chinese cheating website in chat. This game is going to die if china isn't region locked. IW legit doesn't give a fuck.

    Literally half the posts on here are about hackers.. I've got nothing against PC players but the majority of hackers are on PC. Literally 50% of posts on this reddit are about hacking and it's really discouraging. Give us our options back for those that would like to avoid it.

    [TIP] Blocking H A C K E R S gives a warning when they’re in your lobby

    Posted: 13 Apr 2020 04:55 AM PDT

    Infinity Ward now issued over 70,000 bans worldwide to protect Warzone from cheaters.

    Posted: 13 Apr 2020 01:55 PM PDT

    The front page is being constantly overrun with hacker videos and pleas. Here's what Infinity Ward can do to make it as difficult as possible to hack.

    Posted: 13 Apr 2020 05:53 AM PDT

    Unfortunately, you can never make it impossible to cheat. If a private developer makes a hack for themselves, which gives them an invisible aim-assist they won't look suspicious enough for reporting and they are unlikely to have any anti-cheat match their code to a database.

    But there are things that are totally doable to prevent the vast majority of cheaters, who are the real problem here.

    *Before you read any one of these and immediately scroll to bottom to scoff, none of these methods are bulletproof and they should be used in conjunction with other methods.

    STEP ONE

    Implement a phone-verification system for PC gamers only. I am a PC gamer. So don't take this as an attack on PC gamers from angry console players. But it's no big deal for us to need a phone verification system to play ranked modes online.

    What this means is that you tie your Activision / Battle.net account to a phone number. If you are caught cheating, your Battle.net account is banned and your phone number blacklisted. This method works with reasonable success in both Counter Strike and DOTA 2. If you are banned, you not only need to make a new account, but get a new phone number and in some cases, even a new phone. This adds one extra step for would-be cheaters to climb in order to cheat.

    To increase the efficiency, every week players must text a free-text number to refresh the status of their phone. No more using a cheap phone plan to cheat.

    STEP TWO

    Statistics-based banning. Anyone above 20KDR after x games should be immediately permanently banned with a review pending. Anyone above 15KDR after x games should be temporarily banned with an urgent review to allow the possibility of a very good player. Players above 10KDR need to be regularly reviewed and look into stats like accuracy over long-ranges, headshot percentage etc.

    This means cheaters will have to tone down how blatant they are being, which results in a greater possibility of them being killed naturally instead of getting to the top 10.

    STEP THREE

    Add a simple "report" button when spectating, and give the report an option checklist, similar to PUBG. The options should be:

    • Player knows where enemies are (wallhack)
    • Player's aim automatically snaps to target (aimbot)
    • Player's health or movement is abnormally high

    And so on.

    Again, this means cheaters will have to tone down their obvious hacking.

    STEP FOUR

    Implement a strict ping-lock. Region locking won't do shit and it will just make players utilize VPN's to spoof their location, which is exactly what is happening in PUBG. To all the players who play with friends across the world. I'm sorry, really, but the cheaters have ruined this connectivity for all of us.

    STEP FIVE

    Step up Hardware ID banning. A Hardware ID spoofer is not cheap - they are $149.99 for a lifetime HWID spoofer. Make this expensive for the cheaters. Continually adjust what HWID is looked for and banned. Add in Registry Entries in random places upon receiving a ban. Keep the cheat-makers on their toes and increase the amount of downtime while the cheat-makers adjust their program.

    STEP SIX

    A big one - Implement an "Overwatch" system, similar to counter strike. No Publisher will green-light hundreds of staff to sit and watch replays of cheaters. This will mean increasing the server tickrates and capacity to record "demo's" of each game (FYI, a "demo" recording is every characters position, movement, etc)

    So the players will take up the mantle of detecting cheaters. In Counter Strike, you must have a set number of hours played and a minimum rank achieved to participate in Overwatch. You then have ten demos to watch and judge. These demos include false positives and real cheaters. If you flag accounts correctly, then you can judge players who have received high reports. You spectate the demo and work out if they are cheating. Do they have ESP, is their aim unnatural or superhuman? Then you decide whether they are guilty or innocent. If a case receives too many "guilty" votes, they are permanently banned.

    STEP SEVEN

    Implement an agile screen-capture utility to detect the use of ESP etc. Flagged accounts will have random screenshots taken intermittently and sent for analysis. Anything contraband gets permanently banned. This will need to be regularly amended as there exist screenshot spoofers just as there exists HWID spoofers.

    STEP EIGHT

    Go after the cheat-makers. These guys have their cheats on e-commerce websites where you can pay either through Paypal or CryptoCurrency. I was looking at one today and did a spoof purchase to obtain their Paypal ID, I then reported it to Paypal, who said:

    Yes, I totally get it [my name] and I cannot agree more on this. I assure you that, this will be taken up on priority and necessary actions will be taken. Once again, I appreciate your effort in bringing this to our attention.

    Similarly, I reported their Coinbase account to Coinbase, who do not allow the sale of illegal goods or services.

    All of these steps work to do the following:

    • Introducing more steps for cheaters to play the game. For every step added, you subtract significant amounts of cheaters who can't be bothered.
    • Make the cheats harder to develop, and thus more expensive. The more expensive they are, the fewer cheaters can afford them.
    • Add only small inconveniences to legitimate players and create a fairer and funner environment for all involved.
    • Make cheaters tone down their behaviour, which as mentioned, increases the chances of them being eliminated from the game before they can ruin it.

    Just to note, these cheats aren't cheap. They currently cost between $89.99 - $149.99 for Warzone cheats, and $149.99 for a lifetime HWID spoofer. Otherwise, they are available for just 24 hours or on a weekly recurring license. I think it's pathetic people will pay $300 to cheat on an online-only game but here we are.

    What's the point of having a developer supported sub if they never really reply in the threads about cheaters?

    Posted: 13 Apr 2020 08:41 AM PDT

    Serious thread time.

    I'll see all these threads that say "developer reply inside!" And it's always about fluff. Just some encouragement that generally works out as a good PR moment.

    But I noticed these devs rarely if ever post in the threads about cheaters. And they have never head-on addressed any changes or work they're doing to address these problems.

    It makes no sense that in every single call of duty that the top of the leaderboards are filled with cheaters.

    Every year people ask why these players are not banned and every year in these Dev supported subs, we get absolutely no answer.

    I've seen 1000000 different videos showing that wall hack with the truck and not a single developer announcing anything about it.

    What's the point of there being a developer supported sub if it's all about PR with no way to address cheaters?

    I could care less about your content road map or interesting new ways for us to give you money. Tell me how you were going to fix the cheaters and give me a road map for that.

    since this is a critical post referencing developers I'm sure there's a chance it will be deleted but hey I had to try.

    And as always I hope everyone stay safe.

    They sure didn't expect that

    What exactly are you doing to help with the cheating problem Infinity Ward?

    Posted: 13 Apr 2020 04:41 AM PDT

    Please, someone from Infinity Ward give us some feedback. What is the current plan? Cheaters are running rampant with no repercussions and it honestly feels like nothing is being done to stop them. I feel like I speak for everyone here on this subreddit that the cheaters are ruining everyone's experience in higher skill brackets and at lower skill brackets. It seems like everyone is in the dark and is expected to just roll over and accept the problem until it's eventually fixed, if it ever will get fixed. It's frustrating that when someone has a funny post or a creative picture they drew, the devs come out of the wood work like "how awesome" but when they are criticized for a problem that is absolutely abhorrent and unacceptable, not a fuckin word. You can't just tell us "we banned 50,000 people from our 50 million player base" and expect us to pat you on the back and just think everything is okay. Those 50,000 you banned, returned the next day because it's a F2P game and nothing was done to prevent them from entering again. So, once again, what is actually being done?

    IW Please add the option for “Console Crossplay” atleast until you resolve this cheating issue..

    Posted: 13 Apr 2020 03:55 AM PDT

    Not all pc players are cheaters but all cheaters are pc players. Would love to see an option for console only crossplay as playing on the PS4 I run into a blatant cheater every 10 or so matches (wallhacks/Aimbot/40+kills in BR mode,etc)

    Yes I know I can enable ps4 only but would like to play with my Xbox friends without also allowing the cheaters.
