There are still gamers that manage to evade detection despite the ricochet anti-cheat engine's success in reducing the number of hackers in Warzone. Sadly, because there are so many cheaters in the game, it is frequently difficult to tell if a player is actually good or utilizing cheats to gain skills that win the game. This has definitely become a major issue in the CoD streaming community, as many gamers frequently call out Warzone content producers for employing hacks. Due to this, there are now numerous hackusation channels that try to expose CoD content producers that use in-game cheats. 

Nick 'NICKMERCS' Kolcheff, a well-known content maker, thinks there is only one straightforward way to identify whether streamers are employing Warzone hacks. Call of Duty LAN tournaments give players fantastic chances to show off their prowess in real-world competitions that are conducted over a local area network. When players don't have access to their own gear and software, installing and using hacks becomes far more difficult. 

"If you go to a LAN and you see this completely different player, that’s a problem, in my opinion, "Listen, not everyone’s going to be able to perform every time, but you realize at Call of Duty LAN, we play for like a whole day – like an eight-hour stream." the speaker said. 

Nick continued by pointing out that at the most recent Call of Duty LAN event, streamers had the opportunity to play Warzone 2 and a number of Modern Warfare 2 multiplayer modes. "I’m not talking about nerves, you see this guy or girl and they’re performing incredibly online, then they get to LAN, and they’re just awful. That’s a problem, that’s an issue." 

We'll have to wait and see if cheating will be a major issue in Warzone 2 and Modern Warfare 2, but for now, Nick thinks LAN performances are still the best way to identify possible hackers.
