“You Gotta Be Miserable in Life to Cheat”: Cheaters and Hackers Invade Modern Warfare 3 Beta on PlayStation

Every CoD fan’s worst nightmare has started to come true for the forthcoming installment of Modern Warfare 3! The recent social media trends suggest that hackers and cheaters have invaded Call of Duty in the beta phase already. Moreover, a viral surfacing clip from the first-weekend beta trial of Modern Warfare 3 shows concerning visuals for honest FPS gaming enthusiasts. Thus, the internet is filled with fans calling out the hackers for spoiling the CoD party.

The Call of Duty franchise is no stranger to these allegations of hackers taking over the game and spoiling the online mode fun for all other players. With the countdown to Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3 release, fans were also anticipating an end to the cheaters’ reign of terror. However, with just the beta run being available to the community, the hacking community has found its way to damage the core integrity of the game. Well, the early cheaters’ invasion has left the fans skeptical about the future of the installment. 

The growing cheaters’ problem to continue with Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3? 

Over the years, the hacking and cheating cases in the FPS giant have been a major point of criticism. The CoD fans have always called out Activision for failing to take some firm action against the hackers’ outgrowing invasion. While the fans had expected an improved anti-cheat system for Modern Warfare 3, the beta phase hasn’t been an ideal pitch for the case. Here’s a concerning video of hackers announcing their presence at the MW3. 

It is important to note that currently, the beta run is only available to the PlayStation console owners. This only worsens things as the upcoming weekend might add to the issue. For context, most of the gamers have believed that this issue is mostly due to the game’s availability on PC, until now. The next beta weekend will bring Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 to PC and Xbox current-gen consoles as well.

Warzone specifically has been a major contributor to the increasing problem in the last few years. Activision has tried numerous times to repair the anti-cheat, but they have not been successful in keeping their game free of cheats. Players have constantly voiced complaints. Also, those who abuse voice chat are discovered more frequently than those who openly use aimbots, wall hackers, and god modes.

Fans are furious 

All the episodes of hackers altering the core challenges of a game make the fans wonder about their sole motivation. The frustration is obvious and evident every time. But spoiling the initial launch phase of a much-anticipated title has made things unbearable. So, fans decided to express their rant against the issue. 

Users directly question the integrity of those who decide to cheat in eSports. As a community, that’s not what one believes we preach. 

A gamer points out they always knew the cheaters didn’t just belong to the PC gaming community. Earlier, no one believed them but they have solid proof now. 

A furious fan has a punishment decided for all the players deciding to hack into beta runs of a game.

A fan makes a bold claim, and shares how all these incidents have made them lose interest in online gaming. 

The current fan sentiments are undoubtedly problematic for the Call of Duty franchise’s long-term plans. Hopefully, the developers will soon offer a significant remedy to the problem and we’ll get the cheat-proof Call of Duty gameplay which now seems like ‘too good to be true’.
