10 Most Creative Traps For Video Game Cheaters
4. An Even Worse Mexican Standoff - Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II
In terms of cheater-dedicated servers, there is another brilliant example of it in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II (the game has a few good ideas, due to how much it has had to deal with cheaters over the years).
Just like Titanfall, Modern Warfare II hosts servers exclusively dedicated to matches for confirmed cheaters. However, since some may rightfully say the cheaters could still have fun duking it out between themselves, the game's developers are a little bit more spiteful about how the matches proceed.
The servers are specifically run to be as laggy and poorly connected as possible, making each match an absolute nightmare of ridiculously low frame rates and memory hiccups.
The system is a more advanced version of Titanfall's approach, removing cheaters from legitimate servers but also severely punishing them for their misconduct.
Best of all, the punishment is subtle enough to where the cheaters are none the wiser to it and will not think of making a new account.
As far as they know, the game simply has a terrible lag. What they don't realize is that it's like this on purpose.
