One of the cooler, and funnier, measures being taken by Infinity Ward is that suspected cheaters will be matched together. It will be a clash of the auto-aiming titans in some lobbies and cheaters will get a taste of their own medicine.<\/p>
The developer also said that it’s deploying “additional dedicated security updates” and “increased resources across backend tech, studio, and enforcement teams.”<\/p>
Arguably the biggest and most helpful addition, however, is report-a-player functionality being added to killcams and spectate modes. Infinity Ward says that feature is “coming soon.”<\/p>
Cheating has run rampant in Warzone<\/em> since its release last month, with many top players running into aimbotters, wall-hackers, and more. Hackers will always be an issue, especially in a free-to-play game, but it’s good to see that the minds behind Call of Duty<\/em> are taking the problem seriously.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
