In an official update released on February 21 , Activision admitted that the team manning the RICOCHET Anti-Cheat system had received over 6,000 reports of cheating incidents from February 16 to 20. This was because someone had mistakenly claimed that RICOCHET was offline, spurring cheaters to attempt using exploits. As a result, the developer not only tracked and banned these thousands of players, but it's also now testing new security updates. So far, the team's only concrete update was to disable game code for limited-time perks, but it's also said players should expect more announcements on the

Besides the Anti-Cheat update, the February 21 patch for Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone included changes to various gameplay abilities. In Warzone , the size of the effective area for the popular Advanced UAV ability was increased, putting the entire map in view for the player using it. Shock Sticks were also made into effective counters for more equipment-based Field Upgrades, increasing their utility. The Warzone changes also included adjustments to Skill Rating (SR) gain, changing who can receive Kill & Assist Credit when eliminating other players. The change was made to ensure the "competitive integrity" of Skill Rating gain and prevent players from inflating their SR gains by "tapping" downed enem

There are a few ways players can increase their XP earn rate. Instead of using a standard Operator, fans can equip the Cyber Cat, Kabuto, Miryou, or Mikan Endo skins from the Call of Duty store (costing $20 per bundle ). Equipping one of the skins grants players an XP boost, which will allow them to earn the Cat-Girl Smile camo as fast as possi

Gamers can play through multiplayer or battle royale matches and earn XP by maintaining control of an objective, completing contracts, or achieving outright victory. Another advantage of the Cat-Girl Smile camo being part of an in-game event is that Call of Duty players don't need to spend any COD Points on unlocking the des

Following the Emblem Editor is the Paint Shop , a mechanic that made its debut in the widely beloved Call of Duty: Black Ops 3 . The Paint Shop functioned similarly to the Emblem Editor from Black Ops 2 , but this time, it allowed players to create custom paint jobs for their weapons. While the feature was somewhat niche in Black Ops 3 , and players couldn't apply paint jobs to the entirety of their weapons, it was still a nice addition that allowed players deeper control over their weapon personalizat

For many, Black Ops 3’s Multiplayer is the best of Call of Duty’s short-lived futuristic era, featuring fluid advanced movement mechanics , a diverse roster of Specialists with powerful and fun-to-use abilities, and excellent map designs that worked seamlessly with the SLG Game Units’s movement system. Black Ops 3 is also one of the most beloved titles when it comes to Zombies content , boasting a large selection of expertly crafted maps. Though the Zombies mode still maintains a niche playerbase over on Steam thanks to its dedicated community of modders continuously adding new content, a full Black Ops 3 remaster—if done justice—could be an incredible addition to the franch

Last but not least is DMZ , a unique game mode that debuted during the Modern Warfare 2 era of Warzone , also known as Warzone 2.0 . DMZ is an extraction-shooter experience where players can drop into various large-scale exclusion zones, either as a team or solo. The mode offers a great deal of freedom regarding how players can play, emphasizing objectives, securing better loot, and extracting safely to secure their acquired gear. Players can then stash their earned loot for future deployments, but if eliminated during a mission, they lose everything they had equip

The notes from Ricochet Anti-Cheat acknowledged a recent surge in reports of cheating. It said that additional updates are undergoing testing, but as of February 21, limited-time perks such as Super Speed are temporarily disabled. Additionally, the team said it identified and banned over 6,000 accounts confirmed to be cheating or hacking between February 16 and 20, 2024. Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 cheating is a major concern among players, with numerous actions by the Richochet Anti-Cheat team aimed at addressing the prevalence of hacks, cheats, and explo

Unlike the Reflect 115 camo and other designs available to unlock, players have to earn 290,000 XP during the Echo Endo Live! event in either Modern Warfare 3 or Warzone . As a result, the unlock method for the Cat-Girl Smile camo is extremely straightforw

Like many other games in the multiplayer franchise, as well as other FPS titles in gaming history, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone have a long history of players going to great lengths to cheat to win. Less-skilled players would rather use exploits and cheating software to get an advantage over more competitive gamers, a phenomenon that always ends up ruining the experience for many people. For its part, Activision has tried over the years to implement anti-cheating measures, but enterprising cheaters have always found ways to get thro
