Cheaters in Call of Duty have become such a topic of debate, the subject has now reached certain celebrities. Recently, the conversation made it to The Joe Rogan Experience, a podcast hosted by American comedian and UFC color commentator Joe Rogan.
Over the years, the show has become immensely popular, with millions of monthly listeners on Spotify.
Recent patches in MW3 and Warzone were supposed to get rid of these cheaters, however, the issue persists and they continue to plague the game. Players have urged the devs to take strict actions against hackers, but all a user is left with is a feeling of being unheard.
Gamers Might Be Interested In This Episode of The Joe Rogan Experience
In a recent episode of The Joe Rogan Experience, the podcaster was joined by another comedian, Dan Soder, who discussed several things alongside gaming.
The CoD conversation picks up the pace in the middle of the discussion, which began with some players complaining about snipers or campers being cheaters in the game.
They also discussed how fast the game is. “Almost Quake like,” Joe compared CoD with another first-person shooter series developed by id Software.
Soder mentioned playing Shipment, a small map where players need real skills (unless they are hackers) to conquer the game. He said, “it’s like non-stop like you just like turn a corner dead shoot dead like that fast“.
Apart from Shipment, maps including Rust, Nuketown, Dome, and more, are among the smallest in CoD, which many believe requires additional skill for non-hackers. On the brighter side, it sometimes becomes a bit easier for players amid the mess given the area stuffed by players from both teams.
Joe Rogan Has Personally Experienced Cheaters in CoD
Rogan also revealed instances of hackers he has encountered while playing the game. He said, “There were different bots and one of them was aimbot.” What’s shocking is that there are companies selling these cheats in the form of subscriptions, as was shown in the video.
And it appears the Ricochet Anti-Cheat system that has been integrated into recent CoD games has been bypassed, given that these cheaters keep popping up despite larger numbers of bans across the title.
Although the game has come a long way and conquered the first-person shooter arena, it has also become a topic of criticism after incorporating open-combat missions.
Players of MW3 and Warzone have expressed frustration over the technical glitches that persist. Hopefully, the devs will take care of all the things making a mess out of the franchise.
What do you think about the state of the game today? Should something be done about the number of hackers that are infiltrating CoD? Tell us in the comments.
