A Name of Obligation exploit has surfaced on-line, revealing that the RICOCHET anti-cheat has falsely banned 1000’s of gamers.
How the exploit works was uploaded by X (previously Twitter) consumer @zebleerpo, which revealed how the RICOCHET anti-cheat was being abused by individuals who needed to get others banned. The TL;DR is that the phrases “Set off Bot” despatched to customers as messages and even as part of an internet ID in a Good friend Request will activate RICHOCHET and ban harmless gamers.
Activision apparently discovered of the exploit earlier than it was uploaded to X and introduced that it had “restored all accounts” to a “small variety of authentic participant accounts.” It’s at the moment unclear what number of accounts have been legitimately affected.
One such account was that of standard streamer BobbyPoff, who has now been unbanned and has been a punching bag of accusations and abuse for the previous a number of weeks.
One problem that the unique poster factors out is that authentic cheaters may also be unbanned relying on how RICOCHET is unbanning gamers. “Actual cheaters who have been caught by these signatures will get unbanned,” they stated.
RICOCHET has stated that it’s going to have a brand new weblog up later right now on the Highway to Launch ‘Progress Report’ of its anti-cheat system, so we’ll replace readers later right now.
