Black Ops 6 Faces Growing Cheating Crisis in Ranked Play
Black Ops 6 currently faces significant challenges with cheating in its multiplayer environment. Like many online games in 2024, the title struggles with hackers using various cheating methods, particularly in Ranked Play where cross-play between console and PC is mandatory.
Activision has implemented the RICOCHET Anti-Cheat system to combat these issues. The system uses AI behavioral models to track and ban cheaters, with Activision aiming to remove cheaters within one hour of detection. Despite these efforts, players have reported numerous instances of aimbots and wallhacks within the first week of the game's launch.
Key issues include:
- Prevalent cheating in Ranked Play
- Forced cross-play between console and PC players
- Various hack types including aimbots and wallhacks
- Ongoing battle between cheat developers and anti-cheat measures
Activision's response has been proactive:
- Regular updates to RICOCHET Anti-Cheat
- Legal action against cheat developers
- Implementation of AI-based detection systems
- Commitment to developing new prevention measures
