As Activision explained when they launched their new game Call Of Duty Modern Warfare 3, there would be no toleration of cheating, hacking or the use of exploits by users.
In response to that statement this week Activision have backed their statement and announced that already 1600+ users have been banned due to attempts to cheat, hack, or use glitches within the game to obtain an unfair advantage over other players.
MW3 community czar Robert Bowling explains:
“any attempt to cheat, hack, or glitch in [Modern Warfare 3] will not be tolerated.”
“Reporting [cheaters] in-game through [Modern Warfare 3] goes directly to our security team, who issues the bans directly after verifying,” Bowling noted. “Every ban unique to the level of douchiness of the offense. The greater the douche, the greater the length. PermaDouche possible.”
