MW3 cheaters are using an expensive way to get an unfair advantage in the MW3 beta

It seems as though some folks are going to expensive lengths to get a win in the ongoing MW3 multiplayer beta.

That's why I pre-ordered. I wanted to see if Activision or Ms does anything about cheaters, but it seems like it's the same bs as mw2 (and everything after blackops 4). So I cancelled my pre-order. Their joke anti cheat system is just that, a joke. People shooting fast and accurate as they do crazy stunts. Basically everything they do is perfect. That's the best way to describe it. I shoot people first and have x amount of hits on them, but they will kill me in less than a second. Literally, less than a second, but I have to shoot them for much longer and need way more hits to kill them. People shooting from across the map with no recoil or anything, fast and accurate, but if I tried it even with the same gun, I'll experience recoil etc. and not be as accurate. However, when I actually play in games where there's none of this bs, it's actually fun.

Ms has nothing to do with the game 😂

Rynxie574d ago

Ms bought Activision and the deal goes through this week, I believe. Really, you're on a video game news site and you're clueless.

Jin_Sakai574d ago

“it turns out that these hackers are instead using PS4 dev kits – with the cheaters spending not-insignificant sums to pick up the hardware usually only reserved for those in development.“

Pathetic. Can’t stand cheaters!

MasterChief3624574d ago

This is honestly the first time I learned the game is even coming to PS4. I thought it was just going to PS5 and Xbox Series.

mrcatastropheAF574d ago

@rynxie so one company that is in the process of acquiring another company is responsible for the longtime stance of the company being acquired?

You're on a video game news site and you sound goofy like 99% of the muppets who comment here

Rynxie574d ago

You mean like your muppet self that doesn't understand how transitions work and when they begin? Go back underneath the rock.

NotoriousWhiz574d ago (Edited 574d ago )

Yall clowning Rynxie like he's saying it's MS fault the online is bad. That's not what he said. He said he's waiting to see if Activision or MS does anything about the cheaters. By the time the game comes out, Activision will be under MS, and MS could tell them to fix it. Or they won't. Hence the waiting.

MasterChief3624574d ago

Why are you using a pre-order as the reason why you lacked faith in the game? Wouldn't it make more sense to just... not pre-order at all? Wait until the game came out and read what happens, then make a purchase decision from there?

I don't know, it's just a weird flex.

Rynxie574d ago (Edited 574d ago )

Anyways, I was just in a game where I caught someone completely off guard and was shooting at him and he does a less than a second 180 turn and quick scopes me. Doesn't even aim, just quickly presses L2 and shoots me, bullseye. Perfectly. And on the kill cam it was obvious it was natural.

Well in the end of the game he was 58 kills to 7 or 9 deaths. Go figure that the one cheating is the one on the top.

I also love how many times I have to shoot someone and how many hits I put in them and then either run away, or gun me down less hits and less than a second. It's crazy. I'm glad I cancelled the preorder.

InUrFoxHole574d ago

Sounds like this kid isn't good at COD but instead of just having fun with the game. He's going to make up every excuse in the book.

You just confirmed CPTN MITCHELL and didn't even realize it.

Microsoft has had nothing to do with this game.

How pathetic you have to be to actually cheat while playing a beta. Activision doesn't care about hackers and cheaters or to listen to actual feedback they only care about $20 Dollars skins and $30 battlepass

EvertonFC574d ago (Edited 574d ago )

I had £6 left over on my PSN wallet after buying diablo and oxenfree 2 and thought I'd spend it randomly on some game MT, I was astounded snoop dog was £18.99 in CoD, went over to rocket league same again expensive £20 shit, EA PGA tour golf again piss take.
I ended up just keeping the £6, I wouldn't mind snoop dog for £5, £2.50 to the dev, £2.50 to snoop dog X 1million gamers a nice profit but not greedy, but no they have to get greedy ffs and want £19 X 1million ☹️

purple101574d ago

yep that takes the piss, there's plenty good games for £7.49 on the sales though, keep an eye open

purple101574d ago

im so pissed I forgot to pre-order Ghost-runner.

they had it for £7.49 if you pre ordered, now £24.99. - deal finished, - pissed.

In a justified world, I could see these people seeing themselves as doing a service for their fellow gamers by smearing the Call of Duty name to the point of the game's eventual failure, causing Activision to halt the Call of Duty machine and work on other stuff. Maybe it's a community of people that is pissed that Activision canceled the planned THPS 3+4 remake despite 1+2 doing extremely well and being the best Tony Hawk game in almost 2 decades.

Obviously that's not what's going on here. But I wouldn't be surprised if someone came out and said something like that. Not that it would work at all, either. The game will sell millions no matter what.

Rynxie574d ago

They don't, in fact any business doesn't want to banned people, unless it's absolutely a serious case. I work at an orthodontist office and you won't believe how badly some people treat the orthodontist, and instead of kicking these people out, she takes their money and let's them stay. It's just business.

Activision gave us that joke of an anti cheat system so they don't get sued for not following their own TOS.

gold_drake574d ago (Edited 574d ago )

i dont actually understand what they get out of it.
theres no price, theres nothing.

bregging rights? i mean ... thats abit pathetic.

Knightofelemia574d ago

Just another reason why I don't do online anymore unless its campaign co-op. If you have to cheat with COD you lack talent to even play the game.

Let the COD on GamePass experiment begin!
I would think their quarterly revenue will take a hit compared to a year ago, but will maybe make up for it throughout the year as the monthly GP subs keep coming in

pwnmaster3000202d ago

Was up with call of duty man?
I downloaded cod on gamepass and for some reason I cannot access the game.

darthv72202d ago

just curious what version? There are some that you can pre-load, but they wont work until their release date later this month.

pwnmaster3000202d ago

I have to redownload it again for the 3rd time to check.
I ended up just deleting it to make room for other games after the second time.

It was on Xbox game pass, I didn’t know there was other versions. I just downloaded everything, but sadly I couldn’t even access the game. Maybe 3rd time the charm. I’ll download it again.

SPEAKxTHExTRUTH202d ago

It’s not out yet man unless you’re talking about MW3.

pwnmaster3000202d ago

I’m talking about mw3. For some reason I could not get it to work.

just_looken202d ago

On xbox there is the last gen/current gen versions pc though you could also get a xbox version.

When that new forza first came out for one day they had the xbox version on the pc store i was like ? what it was odd.

On xbox you can easily download the one version of a game instead of the series version so you run into issues on your series console.

pwnmaster3000201d ago

Because a game won’t run after I download it??
Man your kids must hate your @ss if that’s how you think.

It's going to be very interesting to follow up on how the new entry of CoD will perform at the box office, player numbers and distribution of Xbox, PC and PS versions this year.

DivineHand125202d ago

I got excited thinking they ported StarCraft to consoles but it's just the PC version. Also, I thought Starcraft 2 was already free to play.

TheColbertinator202d ago

I'm certain it is going to be the Campaign Collection version.
