Post: [Gathering Intel] Black Ops II Server Error

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); This thread is mainly focused on those who are experiencing server errors and issues. Particulary the "Server Unavailable Error". Hopefully with this thread I'll be able to gather enough relevant intel to assist Treyarch with their investigation.

If you are one of the few unlucky PS3 users who have been experiencing these issues from day one, could you please spare a few minutes to help out in my investigation. All results will be sent to Activision support once i have gathered enough intel to assist them. Please answer these questions in a serious manner so the intel is accurate.

- Do you own a CFW PS3? 3.41,3.55,4.21.
- Have you attempted you spoof it? If so, using which method.
- Have you data transfered from your CFW PS3 to your OFW PS3 since spoofing your CFW PS3?
- Are you banned on you CFW PS3?

If you are wondering why im asking these types of questions, it's cause I've started to see a consistant pattern within the users experiencing these issues, which is a majority of them have or had a CFW PS3 recently. The casue may be something you might of installed onto your FTP program while attempting to spoof your PS3. I may be completely off, but it's a probable theory.

I'm starting to think this is a ban... All of my accounts i had modded xp on are getting the same error.

I called activision about it yesterday, and he said that "they" put in a new anti-cheat system, he doesn't know many details about it, but he also said that in the tradition of CoD, they never carry bans..

(example) if you're banned on BO1, you won't be banned on BO2.

Knowing Treyarch they probably screwed something up with it and that's what is causing it.

So far, after looking through your answers, It has me to believe the server error may have been casued by some sort of file you installed onto your CFW while trying to spoof it. Treyarch might of unknowingly included some new features to Black Ops II, which requires that file to work, but that file is now modified. Hence the server error. I'll update you when I know more.


Impossible. If it was a modified file that can be transferred via data transfer, then the problem would be resolved by erasing your hard drive. However, this fails to resolve the problem. If it was a file that is not transferable via transfer, then it would be updated when you update your firmware. But this doesn't solve it either.

Tried out Black ops on backup and works flawlessly. It's defiantly a problem on their end in terms on connections.

I can confirm that this is an account ban. I have never been Jailbroken nor have I ever had CFW installed before but Craptivision and Failarch have decided to screw me over, yet again.

Fake, nobody on support activision twitter is called ^SG only ^SL and ^SM.
And I dont think support would have made those grammatical mistakes.

Probably, I think the anti-cheat system is for Elite, not just BO2.. He couldn't go into detail about it because he didn't know much about it, and he didn't wanna speculate.
