A lot of things are going to happen call-of-duty This week in the world; whether you are excited about the huge Warzone Pacific update that brings new maps, the large number of weapons added in Battle Royale, or the new battle pass, you are sure to gain something.
Most importantly, the arrival of the highly anticipated Ricochet anti-cheat tool, Activision Blizzard’s own anti-cheat tool should make the “Call of Duty” experience less toxic.
Ricochet is already used in the newly launched Call of Duty: Pioneer, although there is no kernel-level driver. However, this week, the kernel-level driver came to Warzone-arguably the “final form” of showing off the system.
However, Ricochet will not spread throughout the world at once. It may launch sometime today (Wednesday, December 8) To coincide with the launch of the new Caldera map in Warzone. Only the Asia-Pacific region will get it first, followed by wider and more international promotion.
This layered release is to allow publishers to “monitor stability, collect feedback and make any necessary updates.” You will know if it is in your game, because you will see it on the loading screen when the title starts.
The developers are obviously confident in its new tools; the company even knows that the new anti-cheat system of Call of Duty will eventually fall into the hands of cheaters, and hopes to expose it to test the effectiveness of the system.
Ricochet will debut in Warzone first, then Vanguard. If you have m ore questions about this anti-cheat technique, what it is, how it works, or what it actually means, you can find plenty of answers on the official Call of Duty blog.
