ah well a few more months and maybe both of them can get it fixed up. Laughing

You think they would have been on the ball so many months later. Apparently PB isn't really turned on or doing much right now..I just hope they hardware ban every bloody cheater.

Give it time, and the cheaters will be hauled in. When a cheat is detected, pathetic cheaters will be caught. It will pretty much play out like CoDUO and PB. Sooner or l8r the public cheats will get fewer, becouse of the loose of interest to make new ones. And players that have been caught in the process. But things can speed up and make it more antagonistic for the cheaters if server owners configure PB and starts streaming to www.punksbusted.com . Where they can evaluate SS,s and cheat files, and ban them over a larger magnitude than just the server with the SS. Oh and the tweakers that get kicked by various dubious settings are also logged. And where you can search for at PsB,s website.

COD2 should of had PB from the start. IW and Activision are a bunch of retards that have jeopardized their credibility of making a good MP game. I didn't even bother to give it more time back when it was released, just becouse of that it didn't have PB. And i dont think i am the only one. Looking at it now, it took them 6-7 months to release a patch that fixed a exploit that could of crash a server and was in CoDUO even. And all the of roaming cheaters...wooaah. In my mind i dont think its acceptable. Sure it can be fixed by a third party patch. But then again, does the server owner know of it? At least it,s fixed now.
