Today, Call of Duty Mobile Vietnam (Call of Duty: Mobile VN) officially enters a two-day Alpha Test phase. Only the fastest 50,000 players will receive an invitation code to experience this version. In recent days, knowing that Vietnamese gamers would be somewhat anxious, the Call of Duty: Mobile VN fanpage has reassured players with images of measures to prevent cheating that may occur in the game.
Although this is just a translated image from international versions, it still shows how the anti-hack system that Call of Duty: Mobile VN is equipped with, compared to other markets. However, what players are concerned about is how this system will operate in practice when Call of Duty Mobile goes live, not how it is “shown” theoretically, because in the past, the anti-hack systems of leading shooter games have also failed one after another succumbing to hackers.
Before witnessing how this system works, Call of Duty: Mobile VN gamers have already seen the most worried and haunted thing has appeared, right before this game conducts its alpha test today. Yesterday, in some unofficial groups, some “corrupted” players posted images of hacking software for Call of Duty Mobile. Moreover, this person even went on to spam the group to showcase their achievements and is ready to operate when this game launches today.
That’s not all, Vietnamese gamers also feel more terrifying and pathetic when seeing other players supporting and “requesting” this hacker’s hacking software. The game hasn’t even launched, yet the mindset of some gamers has already become so “rotten” like this, it’s completely understandable that Vietnamese players are worried and haunted.
It is necessary to acknowledge the issue; the appearance of hacks depends a lot on the player awareness. Because if Call of Duty Mobile Vietnam “brings” the exact anti-hack system from the international version, it can be seen that the “defensive” capabilities of both versions are equivalent. The only difference is how the publisher will handle when they detect hacked accounts.
Returning to player awareness, if gamers genuinely want a fair shooting game, they must create a clean community. Otherwise, if they want to “break” it, any defensive system will ultimately fail. And as for the mindset of some Vietnamese players, we have become quite familiar with it over the years.
