Crikey, the problems never end, do they?
It's certainly no secret that Warzone has been in a weird spot for some time, with hackers and cheaters joining the game at such a rate that the infrequent ban waves offered by Raven Software simply can't see them off. It's been a problem for some time, turning many fans away from the game and making sure that the game has a sad reputation as a hacker's haven.
And it appears, it's only getting worse.
Call Of Duty Fans Report Surge In Cheaters
The hacking problem has been long-standing in Warzone, but according to some players, their experience hints that rather than getting better, cheaters are only increasing in numbers.
A conversation on Reddit has started as the result of a post from user Extension_Variety908, who has claimed that Raven hasn't done a good enough job in seeing cheaters off.
"Is it me or does it feel like there are still cheaters," the post asks. "Is it just me or is anyone else getting sus kills. Every time I play Rebirth I always get killed by a guy snapping onto my head or not looking at me and then turning around and quickscoping me in the head."
Fans Respond To Claims Of More Cheaters In Warzone
Players have rallied in the comments to express their frustrations about the cheating problem in Warzone, which seems more than ever to be causing players serious issues.
"I only play Rebirth now and I honestly think there are many people using walls," says one commenter. "Every few games I get level 1-50 players with killcams showing them ADSing me and team members through walls, ceilings, floors, etc."
"Definitely still lots of cheating," says another. "Fewer casual players… my lobbies are back to the 400-500 level accounts just beaming me or the level 20 accounts locking on to me and beaming me."
It looks like the cheating problem isn't any closer to being fixed, much to the disdain of Warzone fans. It's depressing, but maybe it's time to just let the game go to the hackers and cross our fingers for Warzone 2. Here's hoping that the soon-to-be Microsoft-owned Activision Blizzard can keep that game in check.
