343 is having a hard time with Halo Infinite cheaters
Halo Infinite’s multiplayer got a surprise launch last week, which meant that cheaters weren’t able to fully prepare for the game’s release. Unfortunately, it hasn’t taken cheaters long to find out how to break into what is effectively the game’s multiplayer beta. Already, Halo Infinite is being swarmed by cheaters playing Halo Infinite on the PC. It’s gotten so bad that players are asking to disable cross-play if only because the majority of cheaters are coming from the PC platform. In the past, 343 has promised that it will implement state-of-the-art anti-cheat technology for Halo Infinite. So far, this isn’t the case. Of course, Halo Infinite is still in its beta with the full launch expected to arrive on December 8. At the moment, the cheating in Halo Infinite involves unnaturally good aim and wallhacks. To make matters worse, it appears that 343 is not doing anything to mitigate the complaints in the interim. All players can do right now is to report the person suspected of cheating, but 343 doesn’t really take action yet, so reporting doesn’t exactly do much if anything at all. We can only hope that 343 pulls through with its earlier promise and unleashes a powerful anti-cheat program for Halo Infinite in December. If not, then Halo Infinite could quickly squander all the goodwill that it’s built from gamers who are absolutely loving nearly everything about Halo Infinite except the cheaters and its battle pass.
