the game is starting to become annoying

Br4tPr1nc3 · 07-01-2010 04:50AM #1

the amount of cheaters is actually starting to get really bad!
im talking about blatant aimbot users.
and then theres also the people who are using the care package glitch.

its a certainty that you wouldnt see as much of these if there was dedicated servers.
or an actual good anti cheat program being used like punkbuster.
VAC is just terrible.

what do you guys think of this?

heebusjeebus · 07-01-2010 10:25AM

Whats the care package glitch?

I'm getting pissed off with the knifey-knifey gimps running around the levels.

You just answered your own question

if you run with the care package and knife you run faster

craze7 · 07-01-2010 04:12PM

Yup, hate thoes pricks!

Instant avoid on the xbox!

Spaco · 07-01-2010 04:48PM

Completely agree, have started putting people on my avoid list on xbox. Played a few games on Ground War with my mates and every time we left and went to a difference group, sure enough theres a few more of the losers.....
Really hope they patch these issues soon. Please IW, for me?????

How the hell did they manage to code it where a care package would make you run around faster? Strange one.

Is there any talk on Infinity Ward working on a fix for it? Its retarded with a game called "Modern Warfare" these gimps can run around and kill an entire team with a knife.

Well really it makes sense, I mean you can't run as fast with a handgun/tactical knife or Machine gun as apposed to a little red flare grenade!?

Speaking of course from personal experience

I'd say they will patch it

Ah right, I understand it now. Well if that's the case then its fair game (still annoying as hell though).
I think they will need to reduce the accuracy of the knife though as you just need to be within a stones throw of an opponent to get a kill from the knife.

Rb · 07-01-2010 05:33PM

I love running around with the tactical knife and taking out teams full of people. Didn't know about the care package glitch though, must look into that. Besides, the only people who complain about it are the campers who keep returning to the same spots, therefore keep getting knifed by me over and over.

Komplett-Tech: Ryan · 07-01-2010 05:38PM

The blatent aimbotters are annoying alright, but its no supprise everyone is using them people have links to the downloads from catalysthax in their blogs, on their youtube videos, even had one guy posting it on FB. But i find the simplest thing is to just leave the match and start again.

nevaeh-2die-4 · 07-01-2010 05:40PM

i play it on the 360 and im getting really fed up of all the cheating, i play mostly ffa, and nearly every 2nd game someone gets a nuke, and you check the score board and the top guy has 25-0 and the last guy has 0-25, its happening all to often , most games i go into people ask do you want to boost.

ffs play the fcukn game .

i went prestige the other and was happy i did, but now playing again isnt as enjoyable the 2nd time round due to all the boosting & cheating .

Not The Real Scarecrow · 07-01-2010 06:24PM

Best thing to do is just give em bad rep and avoid them.Its funny though how quick you can join a game and just instinctivly know that there is cheating going on.Its completely pathetic that these idiots are so obsessed with reaching a higher level that they take the challenge(and the point) of the game away from themselves and others. I used to play gow2 religiously and just reached a point where all these assholes just destroyed the hame for me and was in a constant state of rage while playing. I love the new cod and am not gonna let the actions of others ruin the experience for me, after all its just a game and should be a means of reducing stress not increasing it. So if I suspect cheating I'll just quit and feck the loss that will appear, I couldn't give a ****e about the stats and hopefully the next game I'll go to will be better.

Oh, and in answer to what the care package glitch is, its where when you go to call the package or sentry gun, you have the flair in your hand, if you don't throw it and just run around instead you run at hyper speed.Its annoying but if you're careful and prepared for it these guys are easy enough to take out.

I have noticed this as well and have started following them through every game they play doing all I can to stop their nukes while sending abusive messages at the same time, I'm finding this as much fun as playing the game.

mkeane · 08-01-2010 01:54PM

there are a lot of aimbots appearing on the PC version in the last few weeks.
I just leave the game and join another one

Gelio · 08-01-2010 02:17PM

I don't see why people nuke boost. The best killstreak I've ever got is 19 and I'm Damn proud of it (in free for all) but if I had got 25 through nuke boosting there would be no pride in it

Dymo · 08-01-2010 02:40PM

Is the X Box as open to cheating as other formats, I'm just new to the game and am a bit clueless about if a person is cheating or not? I just seem to be getting killed a lot which I don’t mind if its done legally.

Get used to it will be like this untill you learn the maps and find a weapon that fits your playstyle!

Everyone was pretty much in the same boat at the start it does get better once you know where the campers usually are.

PC is the only one with the aimbots so far, PS3 and xBox people glitch all the time and a couple of twits do the level 10 prestige hack, they are easy to spot and kill.

Ardent · 11-01-2010 03:05PM

Annoying is an understatement.

I find that some nights I spend more time in lobbies waiting for games than actually playing. Never again will I buy a PC shooter without dedicated server support.

The amount of campers in the game is ridiculous. The level designs don't help - they actually encourage it.

Absolutely. The matchmaking is an absolute joke, how they managed to make it worse than the p2p matchmaking on MW1 I just do not know. Have been playing for an hour today now, NAT open obviously, an have yet to be put into a fresh game, always onto a team losing heavily and are absolutely shite. When this isn't happening, I'm left waiting and waiting in the lobby and am forming new games with two players but are never finding enough for a game to start, or that lobby will attempt to "merge" with another lobby, drop 90% of the players and I'll be sitting in another lobby with 4 players or something, not enough to join the game.

What a joke. The team behind the matchmaking in this game should be lined up and have their hands cut off, never to be allowed near a developing role again.

I've actually come to like 9/15 maps, yet somehow the other 6 always seem to be on. Crock of shite. Upcoming DLC had better be fantastic, otherwise bye bye MW2.

Also, if you think camping is bad on the PC try one of the console versions, dirty little camper fags in every game, hiding on their bellies facing doors wherever possible.

I'm pretty new to the Xbox and games and MW2 is my first game but I don't see the point in camping if your trying to improve, you don't see a fraction of players if your just camped in one place. Its ok for the newbies because it's the only way to get a kill but for for experienced players it's a joke. But there's nothing better than creeping up on the camper and using your knife then waiting for him to appear again in the same spot and doing him again.

I tend to agree, the camping spots in MW2 are never too hard to find and you can almost always flank the camper anyway. When someone catches me from a hidden spot I think, fair play, must remember that next time. It helps me learn the maps.

I don't camp because the few times I've tried I get a)flanked and stabbed, b)shot before I see anyone else or c) Never actually see anyone else!

Gets boring sitting in one spot.

Um, yeah, there is. It's a dirty, cheap little tactic employed by people who can't play FPS games. Camper fags are called camper fags for a reason, and receive quite a bit of abuse in games, and they deserve each and every bit they get.

If it's a tactic you employ, then you're clearly shit at the game. Of course, you paid for it so you can do what you like, but if you've paid €50 to sit in a bush and wait for people to run by then I've a friend who's a wallet inspector who'd like a chat with you.

I quit most games if the opposite team has more than 1 camper. I'm also the host in most games so am usually thrilled to interrupt it for the camping fags.

In game abuse doesn't bother me in the slightest. Am I fairly crap at the game? ... yea! Still tho I love to camp the bit out and its great in truth. Nothing like waiting at a choke point and noobtubing some enemies down (yea I noob tube too). Sure I get flanked and stabbed at times but fair play.

I play with 4 or 5 friends at nights, we play CTF and maybe 3 of us camp the flag in defence, i'ts great craic. Pick up an RPD and you can lay so much waste with those its crazy. Good times indeed.

Oh? That sounds odd. Saying that, I run around with a P90, so if the knife misses (and they don't stab me), I can swing around to spray and pray :P

=-=

With KillCam on, there's no point in camping in some maps, as they just come back and kill you. On others, I can camp for ages, and only move when someone gets killed by my claymore. In saying that, on Afghan, Terminal,

I play sabotage mainly...

Afghan: great for sniping

Derail is a big map, but apart from the first 10 minutes, I dislike camping in it, unless I find a camper, then I play counter-camper.
Estate can be good for sniping, but it depends. Not always fun.
Favela is great, esp whilst on the roofs, sniping people peeking out. Always fun finding where people camp.
Highrise can be good, but it depends on your team, and the opposing team. Sometimes I can get onto the top of the buildings, and have a good laugh sniping. Nothing more fun than getting to the roof, planting a claymore, and sniping, only for some poor bas*ard to get killed at the last section trying to knife me

Invasion is filled with excellent sniper spots.
Karachi: everyone knows all the camping spots, but it's still fun to camp in spots that give you a view of spots where the other team will camp. Ensuring the enemy can't camp for a period of 20 seconds can get your team to plant the bomb.
Quarry: can run around shooting, there are a few sniping spots, but unless the as there are so many routes, you can be successfull, or waiting a long time.
Rundown: lots of camping spots, but you can only really defend one bomb by long term camping.
Rust: bleh. You can camp on top of the place, and be a wanker :P
Scrapyard: camping can be fun
Skidrow: have a few camping spots, but none for long term camping
Sub Base: love it at times. camping can be great, and still finding ways to get into good spots
Terminal: lots of camping spots, some in the open, some on top of boxes. love killing n00b campers by shooting nearby barrels
Underpass: some great spots, and if camping with someone on lookout, can be great.
Wasteland: ugh. hate it.

How do you defend a bomb, other than camp? Run around in the open? Predator missile will kill you
