    Had a couple of games last few days where things were running at super speed. Strafe speed and run speed was super fast. As a result was difficutl to control. Occasionally i went flying into the air for no apparent reason and died on landing.

    Is this a glitch or a mod or what's up ? Anyone else seen this ?
    Happened on a hardcore match and another match type i can't remember

    It's a modded lobby, happened a lot before Christmas (see previous threads) and I think it was patched then with the update?

    Happened me on about half of the games i got into yesterday, sick of it TBH and then some people think its a great laugh!
    It might be a laugh for about 5 mins if you were able to run straight :mad:

    I agree its a pain in arse. I automatically quit any game with it now. I wish they would just stick with Unreal Tournament for this ****

    Its a modded xbox. So far unfixable. MS say they are banning modded kits. which is funny because they can also be unbanned.

    As in modded again to be unbanned ?

    They did try to patch it but they never changed the kernel number ,once your in a super speed lobby yo are infected i.e if you go into anther room and you are hosting you will infect that room and it will be a super speed room.
    What you do do is turn your xbox off then back on again and you are no longer infected , as long as you dont end up in another of these rooms.

    A jtag xbox as soon as it goes on live WILL be banned in the space of 24 hours to 5 days , you need to get a keyvault to unlock it (unban it) which roughly costs about 200 dollars.

    Expect a playlist update later today on #MW2 for Xbox Live. It'll prevent "super speed" games. I'll let you know when it goes live.

    His talking through his arse as usual, 3rd patch lucky ... i dont think so.

    Love the patch news , especially the news that there will be more patches after the map pack relaease, lol. If they can patch or fix all the ****e thats effecting the game why haven't they done it over the last few months(last patch standing, which took ages and has only lead to even worse glitches and cheating).
    I'm gonna wait until the game is fully patched and iw actually show that they care about the online aspect of their games enough to actually monitor and fix the game as issues arrive, instead of waiting for new dlc to be released. Until then they can keep their overpriced dlc.

    Never seen a game that needed so many patches, theres been 9 already on ps3, they should really have beta tested the game because alot of the problems could have been ironed out

    Why dont you stick on marathon and lightweight and get your challenges done - Running 100 miles for me normally is way too much!!

    Ooo nice idea. But I was under the impression that challenges weren't workign on these maps cause when i got the required number of kills for certain challenges they didn't seem to count
