The game hasn’t even been out for an entire day yet and already we are getting reports of glitches and hacks in Black Ops. I even had some tosser submit a news story this morning trying to get people to pay them for a auto-aim hack.
Thankfully though the hacks and glitches appear to be really minor at the moment and Treyarch are responding quickly in multiple different ways to combat this.
First up is that they appear to be in direct contact with YouTube and are ensuring that all hack video’s are removed as soon as possible to try stem the flow of information about the hack while they fix it.
Secondly is obviously getting a patch/fix out as soon as possibly for all reproducible hacks, something they are very serious about.
Thirdly they will be pushing for bans for anyone caught using hacks and glitches in public games.
Black Ops multiplayer designer, David Vonderhaar, has come out and stated that this is the one and only time that they will be commenting on glitches as they are not in the business of making mini-celebrities out of douche bags.
“We are disinterested in making mini-celebrities out of douche-bags. You better think twice before you glitch. You never know who in your game doesn’t like glitchers who reports you and saves the game in their File Share and tells us about it. Our forum admins and VIPs along with JD_2020 (Community Manager) will be managing the communication directly.â€
You can see the rest of his comment over at Nowgamer but the important thing to note is that Treyarch are watching closely and will be doing their utmost to stamp out glitching if and when it happens.
So if you are in a game and you see someone glitching do your part and save the game file and then it up to them.

Heard there are some issues with Core 2 Duo CPU’s running at only 30 FPS.
Also… here’s the problem with this “once a year iteration model” they have going with COD. Since it’s basically the same engine/code as MW2, it’s not surprising that the game has hacks on the first day. Really sad…

Well its good to see that they are focusing on their broken Anti-cheat protection instead of focusing on their completely broken PC multiplayer.
How about even acknowledging the fact that your game doesn’t work on one of the three platforms you released it for you giant douchebags.

It’s different code. It’s closer to World at War than Mw2. It uses a modified W2W engine, which is a modified cod 4 engine.
Sure, Mw2 ran a modified cod 4 engine 200, but they were developed in parallel.

Why not patch the PC version so it utilizes GPU rather than over working the CPU. This is a utter failure if you want to just port console games, you shouldn’t charge the big bucks for broken PC games!!!

Don’t feel bad people. The Xbox version is fucked too. We can’t seem to keep a party together while joining a public match. Plus COD games are almost always LAGGY! I called Xbox about this and they tell me it’s up to the game manufacturer to figure this out. What the hell am I paying $50/year for if MS isn’t providing dedicated servers for gaming??
