Call of Duty Community Reacts to Major Overhaul Announcements
Activision has unveiled a series of updates for Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 and Warzone, addressing concerns about anticheat measures, server improvements, and voice moderation. These updates mark a significant step in enhancing player experience for both games.
Anticheat Improvements
RICOCHET Anticheat is receiving critical updates in Seasons 2 and 3, targeting cheaters across Black Ops 6 and Warzone. Recent measures include enhanced detection of aimbots and an expedited ban process for serial offenders. Over 136,000 accounts have been banned this month alone.
Server and Connectivity Fixes
- Server Stability: Demonware has implemented improvements to reduce rubber banding and packet loss.
- Lobby Crashing: Activision has identified and mitigated causes of frequent crashes.
- Regional Optimization: Specific regions experiencing persistent connectivity issues will see tailored fixes.
Voice Moderation Policies
A new voice moderation tool is being rolled out to address disruptive behavior. While trash talking is still allowed, the system will penalize targeted harassment and abusive language. Progress reports on its effectiveness are expected later this year.
Upcoming Quality of Life Changes
Activision confirmed the addition of community-requested features, such as:
- Crossplay Disable: Console players can now disable crossplay in Ranked Play.
- Enhanced Reporting Tools: Streamlined processes to report cheaters effectively.
- Bug Fixes: Long-standing issues in both games are being resolved.
These updates aim to restore confidence in the Call of Duty community, ensuring a fair and enjoyable gaming experience.
