Modern warfare 3 - Derank lobbies return
Source: You must login or register to view this content. || 24th March || by Wondoh


I thought i would go back to my news posting ways to bring you a special update, That's right a recent video on YouTube and a tweet by Fourzerotwo have confirmed that Derank lobbies have returned to modern warfare 3.

The video comes from iMW3zone who was 5th prestige and was invited to a lobby which turned out to be modded and he was deranked to level 1.
He had all sorts of different mods such as walking IMS and AC130.
At the moment it only appears to be for Xbox 360 users.



Now here is the interesting thing. This tutorial shows how you do it and it is very bizarre as to how or why it even works. A hacked lobby video in a file share affects your private match somehow.
This is not like how the guy in the video above explains it with all these mods but is simply ending a private match.
I honestly can't explain how it works.

Hers the tutorial just for informational purposes only: You must login or register to view this content.

As you can see it is really confusing as to how this works and is too easy to do. JAMIExELITE as usual probably stole this video, but he says there is no way of getting it back. Do you believe this to be true?

Robert bowling has tweeted that He is aware of some "dirtbag" activities but obviously wont announce it specifically.
He warns to only Join people you know.

Let's hope mw3 is not on the path to mw2s destiny of being publicly hacked and ruined. When CFW was released on ps3 every single mw2 lobby had some degree of hacks in it, going back onto an old cod didn't stop this either. We best hope this is not the start of bigger hacks making their way on to the modern warfare 3 scene.

well it looks like the good news is it is not a public hack and it is private match based, but I can see people who get invited to these getting deranked, then taking revenge and derailing their friends and so on, with a domino effect.

Now seeing as this is for Xbox doesn't mean it isn't likely impossible on ps3. With CFW ps3s still around who knows if someone will find a way to bring mods to the ps3 scene.

No news on what happens if you get into one of these lobbies but will post it when I know :y:

They did change up crap in MW3 so either they stopped caring about BO or they found holes in the security of MW3 that didn't exist in BO.

I guess it seems BO was more secure. Hopefully these idiots that are deranking will be punished.

You would think they would have backups of people and their stats so they could just go through and find everyone who has been affected and do a reset to earlier levels.

:/ Doubt they will bother.

Based off past performances I doubt they will restore the ranks of those affected. Although with enough complaining from people who want their rank back on Twitter, surely fourzerotwo will have to notice and do something.

I would be angry if this happened to me. Hopefully IW will be helpful, otherwise they may have just lost alot of support.

I have a PS3 but if something like that happened and since all that I need is just a couple of special op missions to platinum, I would just finish it up and then sell the disk. I've put 3 days so far into my account, that's a lot of time and would hate for that to just be lost.Honestly, if my account was fudged up, I would go back to single player games and forget about multiplayer games. The only reason why I play MW3 is because it means I can play 2-3 rounds and then take a break where as if I play single player, it's harder to play and get far into a game only 30 minutes at a time.

from what i remember being posted, PC had an updated security a while ago and some files couldnt be accessed as easily, this is what stopped prestige hacking on pc i THINK but no doubt its been hacked again, PC always has aimbots and such things


Aimbot etc is available for PC but If you use It online you will be autobanned. So yeah, PC is not hacked to fuck like everyone says It is, the servers are always cheat free.
