Warzone 2 has suffered from an outbreak of cheating since the start of Season 2, and as a result players have declared Al Mazrah Quads absolutely “unplayable”.
Warzone 2’s Tactical Nuke challenge is one of the hardest in the game. It requires a massive team effort over multiple matches and in many ways depends on luck to achieve it.
It’s too much for the average gamer to accomplish in most cases, which is why so many people have started cheating to check it off their to-do lists. The DDoS issue was bad enough in the early weeks of the season, but now some players are avoiding Al Mazrah entirely because of it.

Why Warzone 2’s Al Mazrah Quads playlist is “unplayable”
Players came together in a March 17th Reddit post to discuss how bad the cheating problem has been, especially when it comes to Al Mazrah Quads.
“Cheaters are using the quad servers constantly and it’s absolutely crushing the servers. They’re doing it for their paid nuclear skin services,” the original poster summarized.

“Over 95% of my matches on Trios, as well as many other people I know, have been totally fine, clear and lag-free. However, as soon as any of us get into quads, 100% of our matches are just shows of mindless clowns where we’re jumping and teleporting.”

Others joined in to share their stories of encountering these cheaters, and most agreed that Quads are getting the brunt of the punishment. Al Mazrah’s other team sizes seem to be out of the hacking problem for now, but that doesn’t mean it will stay that way forever.
Ashika Island is a slightly safer bet, as it’s impossible to get the nuke streak there, meaning the shadier members of the community aren’t incentivized to cheat on this playlist.
There’s been no word from Activision on how they plan to handle this situation, so for now, it’s best to stick with it and play it out in other game modes.
