Infinity Ward To "Eliminate" Cheaters In Call Of Duty 4

Call of Duty 4 has had its fair share of cheaters over the past 18 months, but if Infinity Ward's claims are to be believed, then their "days are numbered".

This silver bullet will apparently come in the form of a patch for the Xbox 360 version of the game, which is "going through certification now". So it shouldn't be too far off.

While this won't end all cheating in the game, it should certainly curtail most of it, and in the time it takes the cheats to come up with workarounds you, Ice-T and Xzibit can come through buildings without fear of rule-breakers.

a buddy of mine was saying this about COD 5 and all the BS

Hackers have found a way in COD:WW to, well, hack the game and get all kinds of spiffy shit. God mode, flying, clipping though walls and maps, infinite ammo, infinite hold breath, infinite sprint, infinite second chance time as well as teleporting.. And they're also hacking accounts if you say anything to them about it.

There are videos on Youtube explaining how to do it and billions of posts on the COD:WW forum and Trayarch hasn't even given a response to any of them so no clue if they're addressing the issues or not.

It's also claimed that it's not a mod to the Xbox that can be picked up in Microsoft so the modders aren't insta-banned for going online with a modded Xbox.

One of the main reason I'm not into online gaming. I just laugh when I listen to my wife while she's playing CoD4..."Hey Sniper420, that guy is shooting you from the glitch."

I find it so crazy that people still play this game for as old as it is, especially with bullshit like that.

Well i have not been on COD as of late. When i finally log on today and play some hardcore S&D a guy goes like 12-0, i just thought he was lucky and nothing more. Then the next game i shot him a few times long range with a Mini Uzi and he survived it all(remember this is Hardcore) once again i just thought hey its a Mini Uzi long range the damage goes down. Then the next round this kid still has yet to die, i shoot someone and he was standing behind them, then he runs, i catch up and put a whole clip in, and he turns around and shoots me. Later my friend shot him 2 times with an M40 and he did not die.

Ive heard about these hackers flying in the air and not being able to die, then this guy hacking in and no one was able to kill him.

I have yet to see any glitchers outside of people who go out of the map, or the glitch building. Both of these are on Ambush. Actually, there is the one in Crossfire, I believe it's called, where you shoot jump and shoot at the ground underneath you with a rocket launcher throwing you up into a glitched area that you can jump up from there to get on roofs that are inaccessible otherwise.
