The Twitch streamer Charlie “MuTeX” Saouma has set a special record in Call of Duty: Warzone. He achieved 61 kills in a match. However, he is accused of cheating in the stream. Therefore, he is taking special measures and filming himself directly with 5 cameras.
What’s going on? Cheaters are a big problem in Warzone. Therefore, doubts often arise about whether such records are truly legitimate. This is currently happening with the streamer MuTeX, who achieved 61 kills in a match.
The accusations come from YouTuber BadBoy Beamen, who specializes in finding cheaters. He claims to have found several pieces of evidence of cheating, which MuTeX denies.
To ensure that such accusations do not arise in the future, MuTeX has taken a very interesting step. He has recently streamed only with 5 active cameras:
- One shows his face
- One shows the controller
- One shows his screens
- One shows his lap from the side
- One shows the entire setup from the back
You can see how the setup looks in the game in this short clip on Twitter:
Streamer is said to use a tool for controller modification
What exactly is MuTeX being accused of? The Twitch streamer is accused of having used the tool “Cronus.” This software makes it easier for players to integrate scripts into the controller, behind which cheats might also be present. Therefore, the tool has already been banned in competitive CoD tournaments.
MuTeX explained that the tool was a remnant of an old LAN tournament (via Twitter) and showed in a video how he deleted Cronus from his hard drive. However, the installation date of the file was displayed, which surprisingly showed March 2021.
This contradicts the statement that the tool is an old remnant, as even an update does not change the installation date. BadBoy Beaman explained this in a second video on the subject:
Cheaters are a problem in Warzone: Since the launch of Warzone in March 2020, there have been cheaters in the game. In April, Activision reported that they have already banned over 475,000 cheaters. However, the problems have become rather larger than smaller since then.
Meanwhile, hackers even stream live on Twitch or deliberately ruin a $100,000 tournament in Warzone, making even the professionals ashamed of their gameplay.
Is MuTeX a cheater? This cannot be definitively answered. Both sides are sticking to their position and not admitting any wrongdoing. It is obvious, however, that MuTeX is not using a wallhack, flyhack, or a classic aimbot.
Some of MuTeX’s fans also criticize that YouTuber BadBoy Beaman now sees cheaters everywhere to gain more attention for himself and his videos.
With his new setup, however, MuTeX is likely preventing others from accusing him of cheating in the future.
