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).

Xman They seem to have their priorities backwards.. Their focus should be CoD 4 first.
shouldn't it be mw2 because it's their newest game?

Treyarch always wants to follow infinity wards foot steps. They did it kinda bad with BO but now they need to follow their foot steps, use their spare money, and fix WaW. I am tired of going in there with only 3000 people that play legit and 9000 people who use hacks. This will bring people back to WaW and allow people to actually go to a cool down game. Going from Black ops to MW2 or MW2 to Black ops is not good at all. It will make you even more pissed off.
