what kind of cheaters are we talking about?..because if its the game spoiling helicoptor spawn killer then who's fault is that???...apart from that,i haven't noticed any cheaters on the 360 version,and i have just shy of 12 days playtime
I recently acquired COD4 (PC) and played the campaign. But to be honest, multiplayer scared me. Here I was, a greenhorn basically, contemplating going into the world of online Call of Duty with all of its dedicated veterans and crazy-good players. To hear of "a fair share of cheaters" in COD4 doesn't help me overcome by trepidations, even if they're "curtailed" for a time.
Oh, another useful tidbit: I once played COD4 online on the 360 at a friend's house. I ended up with a 4:47 K/D ratio. Not pretty.
@Ratosai: i know how you feel. playing on the PC made me feel much the same way i did when i had to shower after gym class high school. i just didnt measure up.
@konexile: @Ratosai: It can be daunting but that's no reason to give up. Once you keep practicing, you're going to get good enough to take on the best.
The best thing about the PC version of COD4 is that you've got dedicated servers that are admined by the people playing on the servers. If someone acts like a dick, glitches, etc they're kicked (or banned) by the server admins. It's all about finding the right server.
@Trowble (XBL/PSN): They're still officially supporting CoD4. The patch probably comes to us via their maintenance team rather than those working on their next project, no?
Kinda late for this. I suppose that maybe this was mainly for Modern warfare 2, but since they had the code they decided to just put it in a patch for 4. That way it'd be like a little beta to stop cheaters.
Any word on what exactly this is talking about? Lag switches? I can't think of any glitches in Modern Warfare that give too much of an advantage to the player...
The only cheaters I have encountered are the ones with modded controllers, contstantly blasting around with a full-auto G3 or M14, it pisses me off to no end.
@Horusz: I was once watching as a spectator and a guy went into Last Stand and totally beasted any person who came up to him. He probably got a UAV or Air Strike just by sitting there. There was no way it was humanly possible for him to be firing his side arm that fast.
i actually just encountered my first cheater the other day, at first i thought it was just the stupid juggernaut, but then i soon realized he couldnt be killed by bullets at all.
@SakhiMelbo: "Far better is it to dare mighty things, to win glorious triumphs, even though checked by failure...than to rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in a gray twilight that knows not victory nor defeat."
I agree with many of the above comments...fuck cheaters...in fact delete their PSN, everything they have downloaded, and send a bag of flaming shit to their house. (maybe it needs to be ignited after it's there and not before you put it in the outgoing mailbox)
I think cheaters on XBL should get longer bans or even lose their gamertag cause there have been too many cheaters in TF2 latelly, like this guy who would pull you out of the map in 2fort when you grabbed the intelligence and he changed his name to Chuck Norris so no one could know it was him, too bad he forgot we can know the name of the host BEFORE entering the game. I havent seen the little fucker since then.
I already have my General rank, so I have no need to cheat. Though, trying to unlock some of the secondary badges is a hard slog.
I just want to unlock the C4 charges to use with other characters. I can think of few things quite as dangerous as an engineer that can lay down proximity explosives at a door way and an auto-turret at the end of the hall.
@goldwings: I'm halfway through that damn badge, and I've put days in to this game. I could just start up a server for just my friend and I and get it that way but I've invested too much time in to it to cheat.
@PapaBear434: C4 ribbons aren't very hard to get. Just put 2-3 C4 at the same place, in a strategic area.
Sentry bots are another affair. Even though you put them in a crowded place like Search and Destroy areas. They don't manage to be useful. Your teammates will get the kill before they do.
Sentry bots ribbons are the only one worth "cheating" for.

Thing is, I already HAVE that badge. I love spawning a turret and a flying bot at the same time, because THEN you get some kills.
