This won't affect their popularity in the long run. Many gamers with millions of subscribers like NickMercs and TimTheTatman are clearly not cheating, in fact they look like dog shit compared to other top streamers. Well that depends on one's definition of successful. People often naively ask "why would these people risk a successful career?". To see how prominent cheating is, we should first look at cheating at the highest level - streamers. Players who are already good at the game without cheats are the ones that benefit the most from soft hacking and can hide it more easily, either by toggling or by using various settings discussed below.

They are just as hard to detect by watching - hence the term soft hacking.

Hacking has become easier than ever and there is virtually no way to detect it with anti-cheat when myriad of different companies exist and patch their hardware/ software after each 'anti-cheat' update by Activision. Aim bot not only gives the advantage of zero recoil (which can also be achieved through macros and recoil scripts) but also gives the advantage of perfect tracking. But far less are aware of how prominent soft hacking is - aim bot settings catered to look legit. It's hypothesized that the hack could spread from player to player, which would result in matches where opponents are invincible, completely ruining the balance of the game.Many people are aware of Cronus max/zen as methods of cheating, producing zero recoil on guns. Just a few days ago, a hack that targeted numerous accounts - including those belonging to streamers - boosted them to level 1000 and unlocked all camos. This is far from the only cheating story from the Warzone community in recent weeks. It's possible that the mechanisms used by Raven Software to ban cheaters cannot pick this up just yet. In short, it's an aimbot that removes the "snapping" character animation, so you don't get caught by other players. Unlike a traditional aimbot, a "soft aimbot" doesn't result in the gun "snapping" in place to meet the target (thus making it obvious to all players that you're cheating), rather it's the bullets that gravitate to the enemy, regardless of where you point your weapon. from CODWarzoneĪs seen in the clip, the streamer is able to take out other players despite most of the shots missing. And streamer plays on Twitch with silent aim, shoots into the air and all bullets hit.
