== Remastered Maps ==

Some maps from Call Of Duty are iconic and are being remastered in other (new or not from the same serie) Call Of Duty games such as:

=== Shipment ===

Shipment is a map that originally appeared in Call Of Duty 4 in 2007

In 2016 Raven Software made a remaster of Call Of Duty 4 called "Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Remastered", in this game they made 8 maps from the old COD 4 including Shipment but the map was extremelly similar to the original.

And finally in March 2018 in an update of Call Of Duty WWII Sledgehammer Games released Shipment 1944, the map style is different because it's obviously not in the same epoch.
Also, all the spawns of this new map are well known and some players are able to get more than 200 kills easily, a lot of players are upset about this map.

=== Nuketown ===

Nuketown, originally from Black Ops I, has been remastered 3 times throughout its lifespan. The original, in Black Ops I, was based upon a scene from Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. The scene in Indiana Jones was a nuclear test ground Indiana Jones stumbled upon.

==== Nuketown: Easter Eggs ====

The first Black Ops doesn't have many, if any, easter eggs, but it has some interesting facts. If you look north-east of the map, you should see a bomb. At the end of the game, that bomb will explode.

In Black Ops II, if you hit all the heads off of all of the manicans, it unlocks a mini sub-game on the TV near the bus.

In the third installment of the Black Ops series, you can turn all the manicans into zombies by knocking the heads of all of them within the first few minutes.

== Trivia ==

=== Game Engine ===
Call of duty 1 through 14 are all based off of the same game engine, Quake 3 Arena (Q3A). Q3A was developed back in 1999 by id Software. Since 1999 id Software have made the source code to Q3A publicly available [https://github.com/id-Software/Quake-III-Arena which can be found here].

== Introduction to Cheating ==

=== Injection ===

"Injection" hacks usually refers to DLL hacks, where the hack injects a dynamic link library (DLL) file into the game for tools such as aim-bot.


=== Internal Cheats ===

Internal cheats are cheats that are run within the game. You typically inject internal cheats, but there are other methods to make internal cheats without injecting a whole DLL (or any executable file).


=== External Cheats ===

Rather that it being within the games' process, it will be outside. External cheats are known for generally being slower, but quicker to make.

== Different type of bans ==

=== Valve Anti-Cheat ===
Valve Anti-Cheat (VAC) is an Anti-Cheat developed by valve to prevent cheaters.

=== Game Ban ===
This ban type can only be handed out manually.

Most of the time a game ban is related to TAC.

=== Treyarch Anti-Cheat ===
Treyarch Anti-Cheat, also known as TAC, is an Anti-Cheat created by Treyarch and was first introduced to Black Ops 2. It has been in every Treyarch developed COD since Black Ops 2.

==== How does it works? ====

TAC Works differently from most anti-cheats. It has many different ways of detecting cheats. The most common is their screenshot anti-cheat. The screenshot anti-cheat takes a screenshot of game screen, then scans it for anything that shouldn't be there. In Black Ops III, they have updated the TAC anti-cheat to scan other processes memory. For example, it will scan the titles of other processes, check the file location, view threads, among other things.

== MPGH Hacks for COD ==

=== Hydra’s Revised Orbital Vsat ===

This hack was an update to Hydra's previous hack, and it is designed to confuse VAC, although VAC can still detect memory changes from this. It also has a total of three features: Orbital Vsat, Redacted Mode, and Interval Timer. All of these elevate the user's gameplay so they can have a better edge in winning the match. And this is fake!

== How to Play COD ==

=== PC/Mac ===
To play Call of Duty on a computer, you must first purchase it. There are many ways to purchase COD for PC/Mac: in stores, online marketplaces, and gaming platforms (like Steam). If you're looking to purchase newer versions of Call of Duty, an easier way would be to do so on steam. Some of you might think it's too expensive to purchase a game on steam, and there are ways around this. You can purchase on sites such as [http://g2a.com/ g2a] and [https://www.kinguin.net/ kinguin], which is a large marketplace for selling CD keys; however, these sites often have keys that were refunded or carded, so make sure to know that your game might be revoked if it is. However, if you do wish to play COD with peace of the mind and also support the developers of the game, you <b>should</b> purchase them off of steam or in store.

=== PlayStation ===

To play Call of Duty on PlayStation, you have a few ways to purchase it. Just like the computer, you have the same 3 ways, but the gaming platform isn't steam, its the PlayStation marketplace.

=== X-Box ===

To play Call of Duty on an X-Box, you can either purchase it in stores, online marketplaces, or on the Microsoft store.
