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.”

T0xic8ear maybe if the hackers would limit them selves to only Challenge lobbys and not walking AC-130's or Aimbot lobbys then I would have no problem with it.


I guess in the end no game is safe from hackers even as much as they patch it.

Halo would like a word with you.

KiiLER this game is absolute crap in the first place.

It deserves to be hacked the crap out of. It just shows that they cant make a game without it being hacked.

BF3 hasnt been hacked no has it ?

Thats what i though....


lol BF3 has been hacked there are lobbies that you can unlock any weapon,attachment, or even stuff for vehicles


What world do you live in. The only lobbies for BF3 were boosting lobbies with the medic kit. DICE has an actualy dedicated server than Sledgehammer. Sledgehammer has no idea how to make any games at all, they just took the code from MW2, thats why we have hacks.
