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.

Activision has announced new security updates coming to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 and Call of Duty: Warzone after banning more than 6,000 cheaters across both games earlier this month.

Though the Call of Duty series has moved beyond its inclusion of split-screen, which most of the earlier installments had in some capacity, it is worthwhile to take a look back at how valuable the feature was in bringing friends together to a local gathering. Here are some of the best Call of Duty games that players can still boot up for some local split-screen co-op

Of all the features that could make a return in Call of Duty , the Pick 10 System is arguably the most requested. The Pick 10 System was an integral part of the Create-a-Class feature in games like Black Ops 2 and Black Ops 3 , giving players the ability to select ten individual components for their loadout. Everything from weapons, Perks, Wildcards, and both Lethal and Tactical Equipment took up a slot, contributing to the ten total available selecti

The new Call of Duty update also made a major change to Modern Warfare 3 's Ranked Play by restricting all sniper rifles, which can be quite overpowered in the right hands on certain maps and modes.

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 SLG game resource management code for limited-time perks, but it's also said players should expect more announcements on the
