The former CoD pro and current streamer Matthew “Nadeshot” Haag had a terrible encounter with an even worse hacker in Call of Duty: Warzone. The meeting left him speechless, as he had no chance against the aimbot not once, but twice.
What exactly happened? The former CoD pro “Nadeshot” was in a squad during a 4-player BR match. Shortly after they had equipped their loadout, his team took out another 4-man squad that was roaming in the field between the Superstore and Storage Town.
With a red keycard in his pocket, the guys were about to head towards the bunker in a Rover when they took a few shots from the Superstore. “Nade” rushed right in and wanted to take the guy out. He even heard his footsteps just before he took a glance into the side entrance of the store. But he had no chance. The loaded white Uzi of the hacker became a top weapon thanks to an aimbot and took the streamer down in an instant.
But “Nadeshot” didn’t give up and wanted to take revenge on the hacker. After a quick and successful visit to the Gulag, he landed at the Superstore and was determined to catch the nasty cheater from behind. He moved up on the hacker from the back and probably wanted to eliminate him with a skilled execution.
But instead of a heroic kill, the aimboter showcased the power of his tool. He spun around at record speed and took the streamer down once again. He was left almost speechless, managing to utter nothing more than a few “OMG” remarks.
How does the clip look? We have embedded the clip of the streamer’s second action right here for you:
In the kill cam of the cheater, you can see how close the action was. The hacker continues firing at the automatically aimed team members of “Nadeshot” while he approaches the aimboter from behind.
With an ammo count of 5 bullets, the hacker spins around at lightning speed and catches “Nade” with most of the bullets in the head. This allows the remaining bullets in the M4, which the hacker had even previously picked up from the streamer, to suffice.
According to the weapon DPS table, the M4 requires 8 body shots with 2 armor plates. However, thanks to the headshots, the cheater can barely finish off “Nadeshot” with the last bullet.
How is IW dealing with hackers? Such scenes are unfortunately not rare in Call of Duty: Warzone. Even in the regular multiplayer, there were hardly any players before the release of Warzone who hadn’t been taken out by a wall glitcher.
With the release of the Battle Royale, the problem took on a whole new dimension. CoD even introduced a two-factor authentication for the free PC version, which requires a unique phone number when players want to create a new account.
In addition, the developers at Infinity Ward rely on a security team that reviews player data 24/7 and bans suspicious players or puts them in dedicated hacker servers. In a separate article, you can find out how the security team operates and for what reasons players are banned in CoD.
