cheating happens in most popular multiplayer games, and with the surface area of Call of Duty being so large, cheaters were always going to find a way to do what they do. Now, Activision has shared some data points about cheating in the beta so far, led by the statistic that 97% of cheaters were stopped within 30 minutes of when they signed in for the early-access beta.

"They then promptly tell on themselves across social media, asking 'Why did this happen?'" "These are our mitigations at work, ramped up and powered by new detection systems that have been extremely effective at disrupting bad actors in real-time," continued the developer. "We don't hit every cheater with these mitigations; most are banned upon detection. But in August alone, over 55,000 cheaters were disrupted by Call of Duty's mitigations."
