According to Activision, such software not only disrupts the gaming experience for legitimate players but also tarnishes the reputation of the game itself. The company further claimed that the cheating software was intentionally designed to evade detection by Activision's anti-cheating technology. EngineOwning, known for providing and selling cheats for various popular titles including Call of Duty, Counter-Strike, Battlefield, and Titanfall, was at the center of the legal dispute.
