Call of Duty fights hacking by giving true gamers invisibility
Team Ricochet, developer of Recochet anti-hack/cheat software for games Call of Duty, has just released some notable updates. Ricochet emphasizes on a rather innovative anti-hacking method and can make hackers/cheats extremely uncomfortable.
Accordingly, the new anti-hack/cheat method will help true gamers become invisible to game hackers. Thanks to that, no matter what hacking software is used, game hackers cannot win against genuine gamers.
“Game hacks won’t see characters, projectiles and even hear the sounds coming from real players”Team Ricochet shared. “Of course, genuine players can see the game hacks and punish them appropriately.”
For genuine players is the latest anti-hacking measure that Call of Duty applies. Previously, this game implemented an anti-hack method called Damage Shield to make the bullets fired by the game hacker do not cause any damage to normal players.
Although Team Ricochet has just revealed information about the stealth feature, it seems to have been implemented in some form in Call of Duty: Warzone since mid-February. A video shows how this anti-hack method works. was posted on Twitter.
The Call of Duty developer says it has banned tens of thousands of game hacks in recent months. However, they still let some game hackers continue their behavior to collect the necessary data to identify and prevent hacking/cheat behavior.

Genuine players are also encouraged to continue to report game hacks manually. This will help developers improve their automated hack/cheat detection features.
Ricochet’s kernel-level anti-hack driver running locally on the computer previously only supported Call of Duty: Warzone, but now also supports the Vanguard version. According to Eurogamer, Ricochet’s anti-hacking system has long had server-side components for both versions of Call of Duty.
In the blog post, Ricochet also confirmed that it has banned an additional 54,000 accounts since the last major update. During that update, more than 90,000 accounts were banned. Banned players will automatically be removed from the leaderboard.
As technology develops, the methods of hacking/cheat games are also becoming more and more sophisticated. That’s why it’s always up to game companies to come up with new, innovative ways to fight cheaters, and the methods Call of Duty is adopting is expected to become the industry standard in the future.
