Hackers and cheaters in games make it a bad experience for all of us. That is why companies like Blizzard have adopted a no-nonsense policy with its latest game, Overwatch, where cheaters are banned from the game when caught.
Now it looks like Sledgehammer Games is taking a similar stance with the upcoming Call of Duty: WWII game.
When the developer launched the PC open beta, the experience for gamers was ruined by cheaters and hackers, but the company has now confirmed that they will be addressing this problem by putting in anti-cheat and anti-hacking measures at the launch of the game, so hopefully players won’t have their games ruined when the game is live. I’m glad they are taking care of this.
The company says, “Sadly, there are always those who aim to spoil the fun, even in a beta. We have yet to deploy the suite of anti-cheat/hacking technology we will use when the full PC game is live. We take a level playing field extremely serious and will monitor and react to this as a top priority on an ongoing basis.”
Cheaters are lame. They won’t be tolerated any longer. Call of Duty: WWII will release on November 3rd for the PS4, the Xbox One, and the PC.
