Hacks in Call of Duty 4 and Modern Warfare 2 Getting Patched by Infinity Ward

4.2
If you have recently played Call of Duty 4 or Modern Warfare 2, you might have run into many hacked lobbies. Infinity Ward is now addressing the issue.

Infinity Ward's Robert Bowling on a recent One of Swords podcast, shed some light on the hacks and exploits in MW2 and CoD 4. In response to a question on if Infinity Ward is working patches for the aforementioned games, Robert said:

"We (Infinity Ward) are (addressing the hacks and exploits). We are not looking at rebalancing things, so you're not going to see OMA (One Man Army) being removed from MW2, although it is removed from MW3. But, we're looking at things, like security things of like how can we address hacking on Call of Duty 4? And, we've been already doing updates on MW2 to address hacking, and basically once we get MW2 on lockdown, then the guys who have the ability to focus on even further legacy things, (such as) how can we lockdown things on CoD 4. Actually, we just did on PC a Linux patch."

He went to explain that Infinity Ward's primary focus is, obviously, Modern Warfare 3, then MW2 and CoD 4 (respectively).

It is somewhat good news but i enjoyed using the mods from time to time. Oh well mods get destroyed sooner or later it will be offline only mods and all online mods will be history. :( sad but it's the truth.

i love mw2 infections! i mean its never been insane where u get into every lobby and there is hacks!! mw2 has always been pretty good about that! but CoD4 is out of control! every lobby you get in is a damn modded lobby!! its really annoying how they have so many lobbys that are like that! u can't even get into a normal game on CoD4! mw2 is ok with modded lobbys! all the older gamers are respectful and use it right! butt cod4 is out of control! infinity ward needs to do something fast! before it's not played anymore!!

All I want is to have my stats returned back to normal!!! I searched for an online match one random day and it automatically put me in a hacked game, I was given 10th prestige which was stupid and now my kills/deaths are -10,000,000,000!!! Can anybody put me back to semi-normal stats before this is completely patched?!?!

RebelXxX You can't even hack on MW2 can you ? I mean you can't host lobbies online anymore.

Ya but they made it client side i think they are possibly going to make MW2 Top notch and MW3 To were if the game finds you with a modified FF.File it will log u out or ban u.
