Call of Duty: Vanguardis now in its second beta weekend, with PC and Xbox players finally having the chance to see Sledgehammer’s latest take on World War 2. Unfortunately, it seems like some cheaters are already managing to use their hacks inCall of Duty: Vanguard.

This is particularly frustrating, as players already have regular beta issues to worry about as is. Spawns in Patrol are still troublesome, audio and visibility are still flawed, and there are new problems withtheCall of Duty: Vanguardbeta on Xbox. While issues are to be expected in a beta, and finding them early will make for a smoother launch experience, players should not need to deal with any more than the expected problems. Unfortunately, hackers are making the beta experience worse for those unlucky enough to be matched up with them.

Reddit user ukjoel333 pointed out their own experience with a cheater. Playing on theCall of Duty: VanguardmapEagle’s Nest, which was added during the second beta weekend, the final killcam shows the cheater in action. While they are using the StG 44, an Assault Rifle that is strong in any hands with the right attachments, their aim is completely unnatural. In the killcam, they can be seen snapping to targets, rapidly aiming down sights to lock onto people they do not even see.

Despite not actually hitting anything, as the player shoots off into the distance, hit markers can be seen on their screen. Some of these hit markers change to red, confirming that an enemy has been killed. Plenty of harsh language is thrown the hacker’s way, with the entireCall of Dutylobbyshaming the player for their actions. Unfortunately, these criticisms are unlikely to stop a cheater like this, and all players can do is report them.

Given that the player does not even need to see the people they are killing, this frustrating cheat is even worse than the basic aimbots and wallhacks that are usually seen inCall of Duty. While many are shocked to see thatCall of Duty: Vanguardalready has a hacking problem that is this severe, it makes sense considering that the game was built on thesame engine asCall of Duty: Modern WarfareandCall of Duty: Warzone. Because of this, players like marpasa believe the same hacks from those games likely work just as well onCall of Duty: Vanguard.

WhileCall of Duty: Warzonebans will carry over toCall of Duty: Vanguard, hopefully the opposite is true. Sadly, it seems likeCall of Duty: Vanguardcould have some of the same issues thatCall of Duty: Warzonehas been dealing with.

Call of Duty: Vanguardlaunches November 5 on PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
