Well this is difficult for me to write. For months I have been saying how COD is no good, but yesterday I played over a friends house for a few hours and became hooked. However, I was reading around the internet that hackers have become a problem with the game. Does this truely ruin the online experience or is it still worth getting? I don't care about the sp in this game that much, so I'm basically looking at getting it just for the online components.

When the game came out, after a month or two there was a care package glitch that really pissed me off cause it was happening every game I played.After few months I started to notice some odd things in game(like knifing someone in the back only to find myself dead)and just some weird things that didn't add up so yeah, hackers messed up MW2.Actually hackers ruin everything if you haven't noticed.

I've been playing a lot the last few weeks and have only been in 1 hacked lobby.. Which didn't do anything.. It was just a normal game with some dude advertising his website on the top portion of the screen.

Hackers have been on COD since COD4 and it's been the same copy/paste job since. It's the same game using a mod.

well ok then, I guess I may have been in some hacked games then since I played quite a bit of WAW online. The worst I've read is COD4, which sucks since everyone says it's the best.

I play MW2 almost every day. The majority of the hacking problems have been fixed with a patch. But there is an 11th prestige hack going around. As soon as I see it I leave. It's not that prevelent though. I've only seen it once in the past week.

Nice, thanks for the feedback everyone, and it's nice to see it has had a nice price drop since I've seen it last, now all that's left is to pick it up.

I have noticed this once or twice but i mainly stick to Merc. TDM though, so no parties. I have also seen people running the 11th prestige hack, basically ur prestige icon is a black/blank square...

The only thing wrong with it now is the occasional text hack.. where someone just presses select and text appears on the left portion of your screen.. mostly advertising a website.

The patch came out a month ago and it fixed hacking. It's a lot rarer now.

imo, around 1 over 20 matches, you might counter a hack host. You can notice it easily cuz you would see long and repetitive texts on your screen.

I played a few rounds and I started noticing a lot of noobtubing around the map, I just thought it was normal as the community loves noobtubes, but then I noticed that I had infinite ammo, you could just spray around with any weapon and you didn't need to reload.

Other than that, I didn't catch anything except in COD4.
