A new hack is drawing attention as Call of Duty: Warzone players are plagued by the "Silent Aim." This is a unique version of an aimbot that causes a strange interaction between the game and the cheat system. Call of Duty: Warzone has increased its anti-cheat measures, but naturally, the hackers are growing more persistent in their attempts.
For the Call of Duty: Warzone developers fighting hacks is a losing battle. As the developers continue to generate new defenses, the hackers update their cheats in response. This creates a never-ending cycle between the game company the hack developers, with the game's community stuck in the middle of both sides.
The new hack was documented by a user on Reddit who showcased the cheat for community attention. The player is seen in the video loading the Call of Duty: Warzone hack in an attempt to alert developers and players without revealing their true identity. In the cheat, blue lines are seen highlighting targets, and the player doesn't even have to aim to hit their target. Call of Duty: Warzone hacks are usually easy to spot, but this one could become trouble due to its subtle nature. While the player is trying to highlight the problem, many fans are disturbed that this is possible at all.
Silent Aim is now a thing - get ready to have the game destroyed even harder by cheaters in the next couple of days from CODWarzone
Silent Aim means that a player can kill an enemy without actually aiming at them. Call of Duty: Warzone hacks that use this system must have a direct line between the gun and the enemy, but otherwise, the gun will impact any target it is looking towards. Call of Duty: Warzone aimbots are built with a similar system, but this means that the player's movements remain natural while their bullets are anything but.
Fans in the comments are frustrated that Call of Duty: Warzone is continuing to be plagued by hackers. With this hack present, some fans are hoping that the developers will step up their efforts and counter this annoying cheat. Meanwhile, many fans believe the game is moving towards an unplayable state once again despite Activision implementing multiple ban waves.
So far, Activision has banned thousands of accounts for hacking, exploits, and other cheating methods. Call of Duty: Warzone continues to hold a zero-tolerance policy on anything that could unbalance the game in a cheater's favor. Once an account is banned, it is hard to have the ban reversed, so players' best defense at this moment is to report any ongoing problems.
Call of Duty: Warzone is available on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S.
