(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Ive been reported at least 3 times for using the UFO mod. Im a little worried I might get my IP address banned from PSN. Then again theres a modder or 2 in every match you go into. Do you think IW would ban half the people playing online?... or do you think they'll just patch it and take no action for the thousands of people who modded within the past week?

yesterday sum1 said the worked for sony and they were gonna ban me and today some1 said the worked for activision and they were gonna ban me
guess wat, im still im still playing and hacking!

No problem - I'm not trying to troll either

I'll try and answer your questions:

1. In reality minimal - they may just ban PSN ID's or reset your Game Account to Level 1. It is techncially possible to ban by IP though.
2. In reality the number of hackers to non-hackers is very small (even though it seems like every other player is a hacker at the minute), so it wouln't be that great a loss. Also don't forget it is in Activision's interest to clear this situation up and show that justice has been done, otherwise they risk losing customers for their new games (e.g. MW2)
3. In truth a patch might be enough - they may take no further action, however (forgetting my stance on hacking for a moment), even if I were a hacker, I wouldn't take the risk. No PSN for 3 months!?! I couldn't cope!!

:confused:

I'll have an update regarding a permanent fix once we get back in the studio. (via @fourzerotwo)

lol Better not let them catchhhh u Lmao Thanks god freaking Fa***** doing ufo hack going to get baned yaya

Well that's true - but why hack in the first place then? It would make some kind of sense if you wanted to complete a few challenges or improve your stats, but if you lose the account, you lose all those benefits anyway. Hacking seems completely pointless to me...

I'm pretty sure (not 100%) that doing the hack is illegal just for the simple fact it's not just a glitch. You have to manipulate the software with a 3rd party program. Yeah you bought the game and you own it but IW owns the rights to that game and all of it's contents.
You can just make a new account if you do happen to get banned though. The worst they can do is IP ban you but that doesn't matter I don't think as long as you connect on a router (router IP is default 192.168.1.1) so that means everyone would be banned thats on a wireless if they banned that IP.

Actually the worst they can do is MAC ban you, that means they ban the MAC code of your PS3 (a unique serial number for each ps3), then you will never get that console online again with any account. Google it if you don't believe me.
