Call of Duty's Ingenious Tactics Against Cheaters: Fake Enemies and Psychological Warfare

TL;DR Summary
Developers Infinity Ward and Raven Software have introduced a new anti-cheat tactic in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2.0 called hallucinations, which places decoy characters in the game that only cheaters can see. These fake characters are designed to disorient cheaters and reveal their presence, while remaining undetectable to legitimate players. The tactic aims to create a fairer gameplay experience by ejecting cheaters from the game.
