"The biggest benefit of using IWnet by far is the fact that you don’t have to worry about joining a server full of aim-bots, wallhacks, or cheaters." That was something Infinity Ward said to try and quell the PC gamer nerdrage over Modern Warfare 2’s lack of dedicated server support.
1 day.
That’s how long it took for the sentence to be negated. It appears that despite Infinity Ward’s best efforts, cheating bastards are already ruining the fun.
If you look at the video below, you’ll notice that all player positions – both friendly and enemy – are highlighted, the guns lack significant recoil, and there seems to be an Aim-bot at work. Thankfully, because the game runs on dedicated servers, it would be easy for a server admin to just ban cheaters. Oh wait..It doesn’t – meaning there’s not a damned thing you can do to prevent being on a server full of aim-bots, wallhacks and cheaters.
Even worse is that the site that’s offering the cheats will give them to you – for a fee.
Not cool, douchebags. Not cool at all.

I have a feeling someone created those hax just to piss off IF and Activision after the dedicated server issue.

Shouldn’t VAC take care of this? Or are they as slow as PunkBuster?
It seems you’ll never keep hackers or crackers down, doesn’t matter what you try and do. They’ll just see it as a bigger challenge

Hahahhaha…serves them right to deny us dedicated servers! :devil: Maybe this will point them in the right direction…

I must agree, even though I hate cheaters with a passion… I can’t help feeling warm a fuzzy because of this.
And since I’m one of those sticking to my guns regarding boycotting, I don’t mind the contradiction of said feelings.

Sigh.. If you have to cheat to get ahead…
Then a truly sad person you are.

Still boycotting but a sad sad fps bunny. I just watched some videos for BF: Bad Company 2. Lets just hope it has dedicated servers 😀

DICE have already said the game will have dedicated servers on PC.
