Cheating little fkers!!

Just been playing some Free-For-All on MW2 and as i entered the game i was killed straight away by somebody flying around and shooting some kind of explosive sniper rifle.
After the game we had a few words and he told me he was going to clear all my challenges. After a couple more back and fourths the lobby was closed and i entered another game thinking nothing of it.

A few games later i realised i was completing challenges i had already done. I went out of the game and checked my custom classes and sure enough the little tt had erased all of my weapon attachments and all of my "plus" perks!

So anyway, my question is, is there any easy way to get them back or am i just gonna have to suck it up and earn them again ?

Cheers, Smokey.

P.S The guys PSN was moss112 with [moss] as his clan tag, if you catch him cheating just move on, he'll screw you overhehe

Report him asap. Not sure if you'll have lost them permanently but report the prick. This is why I am sticking with Black Ops as I have had no problems yet.

Get them reported asap.
Cheating is low, but deleting/altering other peoples account details is probably a criminal offence!

fking scum. :rant:

I don't know how to report him and to be honest i don't know if i'd bother, i just want fmj back for my spas really hehe

Is there anyway i can take my PS back to how it was at a different date, like a system restore on a pc ?

Pazz had this done to him as well, he didn't get them back I don't think.

If you see someone cheating, leave the game.

I usually do just that, i wanted to watch his killcams though to see what he was doing. He had loads of menus on his screen with different options to walk through walls, god mode etc. I probably shouldn't of started an argument though hehe

Yup, they did... SCUM. You'll have to earn them back ORRRR hopefully you know someone who can run a Challenge Lobby, from there they can give you everthing (Titles, Emblems, Any Prestige, Camo's) but they won't be able to restore your account to how it was previously.

A recent similar thread on reporting...

I had something similar on the PC MW2 - some cheating bd was running around and killing everyone (On the kills list it showed that you were killed by an AC130, even underground) - and when I left it turns out that im no longer lvl25 but lvl70!

The most popular one that keeps happening to me lately is the game starts & everyone bunches up together (you can't move) & they just fire away from anywhere to your death. Sounds like the OP seen a good one though, when you die you blow up lol madpunch

hehe

He was doing all sorts weapon wise, another one was a fully auto version of the big gun you get in the AC-130 (couldn't actually see the gun, just a huge crosshair), he was wiping the whole map out with that in seconds.

Can they remove everything after you have left the lobby?

I've never played MW2 online but how can other players remove things you've unlocked thus making you start again?

There are numerous hacks you can use to give you more options for aimbots and god mode etc. I believe it is with modified game saves and the number of people using these cheats is mainly due to the game creator not being bothered about fixing the game after they get your money.

I've been in several just recently that have had the Nuke countdown running permanently in the top corner and the level of kills has been in the hundreds. They've either been playing the same lobby for an hour or hacked and cheating.

I've just been leaving the lobby.

That happened to me and can't be reversed. Deleted all the MW2 files from my PS3 and restarted the game but it was exactly the same. Looked on the Infinity Ward forums and other people have had it as well. And IW can't do anything to fix it.

Was well-known on the Xbox a while ago, there is no fix for it as your status as it was is gone forever.

If you suspect that you're in a hacked lobby the best thing to do is dashboard (or XMB if you like :P ), as this means your game status is not saved on exit. If you simply back out the usual way you risk losing everything if the host has created a malicious lobby.

The PS3 has recently been cracked so you will see more cheating I'm afraid.
I also jailbroke my PS3 yesterday to see what benefits it brings like the iPhone and because I'm inquisitive.
And with doing so i put a hacked patch on MW2 so now I can play games similar to wages matches on black ops like one in the chamber, gun game and zombies (not to cheat).
I must say that it has opened up the game even more but I usually play black ops now anyway.
I can't get you back to exactly how you were before but I can gladly give you all the weapon unlocks if you wish.
