COD Warzone Cheat That Touts Can Work on “Any Console” Forced to Stop Due to Activision Notice

The COD Warzone cheat tool that touts it can work on "any console" has been forced to stop development thanks to Activision's notice.

Jin_Sakai1050d ago

Good. The sooner the cheat sites end the better.

excaliburps1049d ago

Yes. I hope Acti sues everyone of them. They were quick on this one since it was for consoles and we all know that's where the $$$ is.

sourOG1049d ago

Now you fight AI in single player and multiplayer lol.

JEECE1049d ago

I don't understand why you want to cheat in a game without tangible prizes. People will know you are cheating, so no one will respect you, and you won't enjoy the game, because you'll know you aren't playing the real game. It just makes no sense.

sourOG1049d ago (Edited 1049d ago )

Kids bro. It’s like prank phone calls back in the day. Now kids use aim bots and ddos servers for years at a time.

JEECE1049d ago

Yeah I guess I could see kids about 14 and under finding it funny.

Axel-Foley1049d ago

I don't think the majority of the people using these cheats are young kids. It costs money. Sometimes, lots of it too.

sourOG1049d ago

Costing money doesn’t stop them from buying other dumb shit that’s ruining the industry like lootboxes and fortnite formulas lol. How much could the cheat things be? Is it expensive?

Taero1049d ago

Some people just enjoy winning, they can also view it as 'normal' depending on where they're from. I remember a reddit post with a number of people from Brazil talking about how it's just expected and how the game is played (in regards to cheat software etc.) and this seems to back it up https://www.rubyfortune.com...

If everyone around you cheats are you going to continue dying all the time or are you going to cheat as well?

JEECE1049d ago

If a game is taken over by cheaters, I just wouldn't play that game. I mean that isn't even a hypothetical, I have avoided games (or specific servers of games) for this specific reason.

Some people are such losers IRL that the only way they can get the endorphin rush of achievement is by cheating in a video game. They aren't playing for fun. They're playing for a feeling they are otherwise incapable of acquiring. Because they suck.

Zeref1049d ago

That's where you're wrong, they definitely enjoy ruining the game for others

But I thought cheats and hacks were just a PC thing. :^)

Christopher1049d ago

Snark aside, it's predominantly PC and mobile. Mobile is almost as big for cheats as PC and people ignore it because it's not what "typical" gamers play.

With consoles becoming more and more mainstream and opening support for more input devices, it's only going to result in parallel cheat creation between PC and consoles.

ActualWhiteMan1049d ago

Someone in Russia or China will take the concept and continue production of said cheat. A country that doesn’t comply with American legal threats.

Monetization in Gaming Is Getting Insane

Trevor Walker said: Well, here we are again. Every time I think I’ve said all I have to say about this topic, another studio falls into the same cycle. Monetization in video games seems to be getting more and more out of hand. If you’ve played any AAA title in the last 6 years, you’ve surely seen it. Battle passes, exclusive skins, and sometimes pay to win features have spread throughout the gaming industry like a plague, and we need a cure. Badly. I never thought I’d see the day, but the first game that comes to mind is one that holds a special place in my heart.

You need a cure. Here it is:

1. Don’t buy the game.
2. Don’t just not buy the game, announce it!

Announce on every social media/chat/discourse/streaming … platform available & imaginable that you will not buy the game that is coming out & state the reason that we all know. Then advise others to do the same.

Once you’ve announced it, announce it again for the next game by the same dev that you will not buy their future product either, because of their past dealings with consumers.

3. See 1.

I don't sub to anything digital, games, movies, TV shows, etc. I just take what I want for PC for the unbeatable price of $0.00 🤣 But I sometimes buy the occasional game, but as for the others I mentioned yeah ok, haha paying for a streaming service to watch shows, movies, etc man GTFO lol

jznrpg45d ago (Edited 45d ago )

I know many people who don’t buy MTs or support gaas. But unfortunately there are just as many people that I know who do and they don’t care about it. Companies won’t stop doing it until the vast majority don’t buy anything. Some GaaS do it better than others but most are looking to make as much MT money as they can get away with and there’s too many who don’t mind it at all

Reviewers can prioritize monetization schemes in their reviews and give companies low scores based on severity.

Chocoburger44d ago

This is one of the reasons why I've been focusing more on older games from PS3 & X360 all the way back to the NES.
Rarely can a modern big budget game garner my attention, because its just the same stale concept over and over again. Open world, busy work, grinding, where your job is literally to be a trash collector (constantly picking up endless resources off the ground), the entire industry has been copying Ubi-junk, and I'm just not interested.

Add in the fact that games are clearly releasing in beta form (sometimes very early beta form!), then there's randomized gear you have to pick up and upgrade, then all those boring skill trees to fill in, which is the laziest form of fake game progression imaginable.

Then there's the nasty business model of paying an extra $20 just to play an unfinished game 3 days early. Disgusting behavior, and anyone who supports those companies are actively making our industry worse.

The game industry has never been perfect, but its also never been this bad either.
