Activision's Latest Measures Against Cheating in Call of Duty.
TL;DR Summary
Activision's Call of Duty Ricochet anti-cheat team has introduced new measures to reduce unfair play, including a system to detect third-party XIM-type devices and a replay investigation tool. Cheaters will face measures ranging from mitigations up to permabans across all Call of Duty titles. The company has also revealed new in-game mitigations, such as Damage Shield, Disarm, and Cloak. Activision's anti-cheat measures implemented in 2021 led to a "significant" drop in cheaters, but the company expects players to create new ways to get around existing measures.
