MW3 Hacks Limited to Private Match Players Stats "Have been backed up"

4.3
It was bound to happen eventually. Despite Infinity Ward doing everything they could to keep hackers out of Modern Warfare 3 (even going so far as to fly out some of the hackers themselves to consult on how to stop them), the game has now been hacked.

You can see the results of some of these hacks in the videos below. The videos include users on the Xbox 360 using hacks such as walking AC-130′s, infinite ammo, superspeed, and general all-around God-mode Apparently, according to a developer on the official Call of Duty forums, lobbies which were modded to decrease players’ ranks were initially made to be public before developers caught on. “A modding group created a viral mod, which we prevented from spreading within twelve hours yesterday,” according to an IW developer. He added, “sadly, in ‘protest’ at our ability to disable this they are now inviting player’s to private matches where they reset their stats.” Good news that it has been contained and removed from public lobbies, but the threat still lives in private ones. It is stressed that MW3 players should “avoid friend invites from ANYONE not on your friend list.”

Luckily, IW developers have stated that they ”are working actively on fixing this issue and also backing up player stats so that [they] can reset those affected by this malicious behavior.” So to clarify, those worried about their stats having been recently affected, developers state that “they will have been backed up” and that they “put this system in place the moment [they] learned of this group’s activity.”

He just mad coz he did not find out sooner and lobbies did not make mw2 bad it mad the game like 100000000 times better that is why so many people bought mw2 and got call of duty big and got ttg more people to join on this site coz of the lobbies on mw2 and lobbies on call of duty games so if there where never lobbies then people that sell jtags would of not sold that many jtags and modded controllers were big on mw2 so it helped them sell modded controllers so mw2 and lobbies help ever one out so shut up you are from uk and no nothing at all and have no life good bye.

Oasis Ecko's just jealous he didn't get his hands on it sooner.

Also, who gives a crap, it's IW. We all know that in a couple months they'll give up the after care of MW3 and it'll become a glitch/mod/hack fest.

There are much better games out there than MW3 anyway.

I won't even play it any more as soon as Counterstrike comes out.
Agree!
