ive meet some cool ones, and not all of them are this bad.

So recently. i hooked up my 360 to play some mw2/mw3 for old time sake, and it seems like like 70% of the lobbies i get into, its either someone aimbotting instakilling everyone, or 3-4 people showing off whos Jitter with the striker is better.

First couple of days were okay, jitters here and there. then after 3-4 days, they're everywhere. TDM, SnD etc.

Now i have a "OG" Gamertag that sticks out. so first thing i hear every time i join a lobby is "nice spoofed name" or "back out that guy is hacking" to be honest, i didn't even know what that was. I had to google what spoofing a name was.

So, randomly a couple of days ago, some dude was like "Can i buy your account", i reply with, "nah sorry man", so the game starts up, and he de-ranks me. like why? i wasn't even mad or anything, just sort of annoyed that i had to get level 13 or whatever level to play snd again. since its the only populated game type at nighttime.

Same thing happens on mw3, im playing snd. then out of nowhere i get de-ranked. but that time, i was sort of annoyed that i lost all my perks and guns. like MSR is damn near level 80 to get again.

And i'm playing mw2 last night. some guy's blatantly hacking. bragging to everyone that he can hit you offline, and so on. so i kill him by luck of course. and he freezes my xbox.

And then these are the type of people who ask for backwards compat on these games and wonder why they haven't made them yet? people only look at the hosters but they don't realise there's so many more problems then just setting stats and lobbies.

I really do enjoy these games, its just people like this make it hard to even want it backwards compatible.


Tl;dr Bad streak of modders on older cods.

King wrote I totally understand your frustration with everything. People freezing your console and deranking you is now just life on 360, everyone's gonna do it whether you kill them, good at the game or have a good gamer-tag. When i owned the gamer-tags "Engine" and "Camera" i would go into lobbies on modern warfare 2 and since i was using xbl codes (2day/14day trials) my xbox live account was grey. People thought i had spoofed the gamer-tag or im "hacking" as they say so it was annoying. It sucks all you wanted to do is just play but it's not like that anymore man.
