Ricochet anti-cheat bans over 6000 accounts in MW3 and Warzone as instances of cheaters increase

Team Ricochet, the team behind the anti-cheat system in MW3 and Warzone, today (February 22, 2024) reported that they have issued bans to over 6000 accounts in the game within a span of just four days i.e., between February 16 and 20, 2024. This was in response to the recent surge in the number of cheaters in the two titles. The report elaborated further on some issues.

For instance, there have been increased cases of players using speed hacks by taking advantage of the Super Speed Perk from The Boys Event. Hence, Team Ricochet has disabled the system completely to prevent players from abusing this glitch.

Furthermore, Team Ricochet addressed the recent allegations of their anti-cheat system going offline. They mentioned that only a single telemetry was disabled to upgrade it, and the anti-cheat system as a whole was online the entire time. They are constantly on the lookout for and monitor player activity to maintain a safe and competitive environment for all players in the games.
