Plot twist: Theres still hackers in multiplayer even with all that crap plus rootkit they bundle with.
Black Ops 7. Its got plenty of shaming going on for other reasons already but this is the first time ive seen this message.
Why am I not surprised. More of Microsoft trying to enforce this bullshit now that they own CoD.
EA does the same thing with Battlefield 6. It's for the anti-cheat.
Secure boot. TPM2.0. And a kernel level anticheat on top.
Yet, still hackers in game.
I've been no-lifing the game since launch and have yet to see any hackers..
It's odd that I've only seen complaints about there being hackers in the game in the context of the anti-cheat. Nobody that I've played with or any of the people in my games have complained about hackers, yet every conversation involving the TPM/ secure boot bullshit (which I agree is ridiculous and invasive) involves multiple claims of hackers.
I almost begin to wonder if anecdotal experiences are being fabricated to push a narrative, but then I remember it's impossible to lie on the internet.
While I agree people’s experiences vary wildly, there’s plenty recorded gameplay video that shows it happening.
That aside, they can take their invasive measures and shove it up their cloud where it can and should operate, not on my goddamn machine.
Do you have any links to these videos?
Havent experienced a single hacker in BF6 and ive played since launch. Maybe you're mistaking skilled players for cheaters?
Maybe anecdotal evidence from any single person isn’t enough to go on either way, but the topic at hand that video games need access to secure encryption hardware to run probably isn’t super cool should be the discussion
Does it? Other than the campaign being kinda ass and a bunch of assets being AI I don't think there's much to complain about this game. The matchmaking is old school, lobbies don't disband, and the gameplay on MP is solid.
Also, the fact you're complaining about hackers on it is funny, considering I have literally seen none in the 25 hours I played the Beta and the 5 hours I've played the live version so far. All that happened is the aim assist got nerfed so people who are actually cracked on KBM can actually kill people before getting aimbotted by the thumbless controller players.
Not personal, just venting.
As someone who arrrr'd CoD4, MW2, a couple others I don't remember, and then a friend bought me BO3 for the co-op zombies last year (and my god that menu system is a massive piece of shit), I tried the public beta of 7 like a month ago...
I had to make an account, agree to... 5, I think, different bullshit terms of fuck-you-pay-me, enable SB, figure out the awful menu system again (I'm noticing a trend here), and while the zombies mode was... tolerable, it's basically the same thing as prior games, just with a new price tag. And, what particularly grinds my gears (assuming the list thus far isn't bad enough), you cannot download the entire game? Like it requires you to stream it. I have a 4TB raid0 PCIe (add-on style) nvme card, unless the game is a literal terabyte+, I want a full copy. That drive was literally $999 when I got it a few years ago, "I paid for the entire thing and I want to use the entire thing". Let the console players use their bandwidth to temporarily cache shit, but I have the fucking space, piss off.
Fast forward 10 years when the servers shutter and the game you paid for is missing fucking necessary assets and is thus bricked in a new moronic way. Oh, you wanted to play single player? Hook up for some LAN fun? Nah fuck you, content not available. Retry?
And this shit is $80 base? "I remember when" angry grandpa but they can get fucked. You want $80 for a game that will die in a decade, and I should be grateful for the privilege? Thank you sir, may I 'ave some more?
Maybe I'll fire up CoD4 again, me and a friend against aimbotting bots. Fun, all local, and Activision can't nuke it at the flick of a switch.
grumble grumble
Other than a bad campaign, unapologetic AI slop, kernel-level anticheat, a $70 price tag, and being yet another uninspired formulaic installation of a franchise that peaked during the Bush administration, what's not to like?
Yeah, and then you go back to Steam with your smug-ass smile and boots up Counter-Strike 2 to play the exact same maps with the exact same strategies you were doing in 1999, except now the smoke dissipates with gunfire. So fucking original!
At least they dont release a new counter strike every year with negative new features and a $80 entry fee, in the process leaving your game from last year to die.
Plus CS is an actual good game, cod is just yearly slop
Funny how you say "So fucking original!" as if you aren't still booting up COD (the thing that stays the same or gets worse, rather than better).
Never played a Counter Strike game, actually!
I haven't played in yeeeears, but this still hurts my heart a little. So many memories.
