Call of Duty: Vanguard second-best Ranked player caught cheating; Call of Duty 2022 leak indicates big reveal
Call of Duty: Vanguard hacker admitted to cheating and posted details about his method. Check out the leak about the upcoming Call of Duty 2022 game below.
Call of Duty: Vanguard gaming community has just exposed another cheater in the game. While cheaters are found in most online multiplayer games, this is quite a revelation that the game’s #2 ranked player was found to be hacking.
Pplehx, the second-highest player on the Ranked Play leaderboard, was streaming his gameplay on Monday. His game glitched for a brief moment and revealed that he was using wallhacks that mark enemies that are behind walls. Those watching the stream quickly spotted the hack used by the player to get to rank #2.

Pplehx took to Twitter to confess and admitted he used cheats for the Call of Duty game’s ranked play. He tried to justify the use of the hack by saying he was using them to earn and unlock camos (weapon skins).
He also said that he reached the top of the rankings without using the hacks by posting screenshots of his registration and payments to a website called ArtificialAiming. He bought the cheats from the website and posted the time and date of the cheats to show they were bought after he reached his #2 rank. However, there was no evidence provided that he subscribed to cheats for the first time.
Hacking Situation.

The use of hacks and cheats by a well-known and second ‘best’ player of Vanguard Ranked Play shows the deep-rooted problems in the game. The developer team continues to struggle to keep the game fair for its players despite the introduction of the Ricochet Anti-Cheat system in October last year.
The COD: Vanguard gaming community is asking for a ban or suspension for Pplehx and it is not known yet whether an action has been taken against the streamer.

The tweet from RaphsValve was mistaken to be a reveal date for the game itself by some users. He clarified in the tweet thread that the game reveal is still slated for May. The leak suggests a different announcement regarding the developing stage of the game. He added to the thread on Tuesday and said that the information could actually get shared with the public before April 30.
