動視（Activision）在打擊《決勝時刻》作弊行為的法律戰中再次取得重大勝利。近日，在動視對知名外掛開發商Zenith和Devware提起訴訟後，這兩家作弊軟體開發商正式向《決勝時刻》玩家社區公開道歉，並確認其作弊服務將永久關停。
Build and sell cheats, get shut down. Yesterday, following our lawsuit against the cheat devs behind Zenith and Devware, they apologized to the Call of Duty community, confirmed their cheat services are permanently shut down and had some advice for other cheat makers: 「If you’re making cheats, I strongly recommend that you stop now, or Activision will catch you too.」 This is what taking the fight to cheat sellers looks like. They aren't the only cheat maker we’ve put on notice: we’ve been busy going after illicit vendors to protect fair play. https://twitter.com/CallofDuty/status/2095904740437840074
更令人矚目的是，這兩位外掛開發者在道歉聲明中，竟對其他還在製作或售賣作弊軟體的人發出了「血淚警告」：「如果你還在製作外掛，我強烈建議你立刻收手，否則動視遲早也會找上你。」這番言論無疑為動視的強硬反作弊態度做了最生動的「背書」。
We’re going after the people and businesses building and selling cheats - disrupting their operations, cutting into their profits and making it harder for those tools to reach your matches. There are consequences for building and selling cheats. Legal action is one of them. https://twitter.com/CallofDuty/status/2095904742568587583
動視官方也藉此機會重申了打擊作弊的決心：「這就是我們將矛頭直指作弊賣家的成果。」事實上，Zenith和Devware並非個例，動視法務部一直在全天候出擊，致力於從源頭上取締非法外掛供應商，為全球玩家守護一個公平、純粹的遊戲環境。
