where's the outrage over the damage glitch?

I watched for weeks as most of you railed on anyone using the token glitch. Demanding bans for any and all use of it yet this damage glitch is still fairly recent and growing and I'm not seeing any threads about it. This glitch bothers me more than any I've heard of. Now I'm regularly watching my kill cam and seeing acr's and m14's with damage. This effects you in game directly. The token glitch poo'd on the leaderboards. Unless of course this glitch has got a lot bigger than I thought. That would explain the silence about it on here. If that's the case, sad sad sad.

    No need to outrage it's getting at he'd shortly and bans are getting handed out.

    #MW3 PSA: The "damage" proficiency exploit is already fixed in the next patch. We're now tracking anyone abusing it and will ban offenders.

    Re: where's the outrage over the damage glitch?

    As of late, I have been playing SnD.

    Every lobby there is atleast one person using damage on a rapid fire SMG, MK14, Type 95, or ACR.

     

    Even 10th prestige people are using it feeling secure that no bans/resets will take place. I report every person that I see using/exploiting this glitch. The MK14 is one shot, and with a modded controller, how much easier could it be to kill someone?

     

    It needs to be patched ASAP and a ban needs to be done. After all, I won't get all of my deaths removed that these people used this.

    On the Kill Cam it shows their weapon profiency. Just see if it has Damage Profiency on a weapon that doesnt have it legit.

    They are fixing it, how outraged do you want people to get?

     

     

    If it's being fixed, Wiggy has no issue, just deal with it in the meantime.

    I hope they're not just fixing the damage proficiency. You can also put the speed proficiency on any weapon and stability on shotguns (not sure why you'd want to, but the ability is there).

    Re: where's the outrage over the damage glitch?

    Why do they make a game that is so easily hacked into?

     

    Mw2 was my first COD game I played online so I barely noticed anything bad,,it was like my first time pumping cheeks with a girl.

     

    Black ops i felt had no legit hackers... you always get boosters but thats different.

    if it was as rampant as the token glitch [it's not] i suspect we would have been losing a lot more over the weekend. not the case, it seemed just as random as it always is. people still die when i shoot them so it's all good

     

    it will be patched, chill

      Re: where's the outrage over the damage glitch?

      You can also put speed on SMG's with extreme conditioning and sprint though people on SND. It's ridiculous. I've had fun doing it on my second account. I don't think they will ban for it, plus I'm 90% sure there are two different ways to do it. A glitch should never be this easy though. I have only done the glitch once (to an mp5) and played about 3 games with it, still confident they won't ban my second account though because only 1 person on my F/L got banned for the token glitch. One of my friends has like 2 weeks of double XP.

        perfect example of an idiot," I won't get banned for this because my friend hasn't got banned yet for the glitch he did" . why take the chance? is it really worth it just to get a slight advantage over someone else? what do you really get out of it?

        My friend did the damage glitch, and didn't even use it in game. (Just had it in his classes)

         

        He got banned for 2 days, reset, 10,000 deaths, 1000 losses.

         

        Same as token glitch.

          My side still hasn't got a ban, so I don't care. If my KD gets reset, woop te doo? People glitching really aren't concerned about KD, especially considering it's only a second acc first level 80. I'm not a moron, I just wanted to try speed in SND with extreme conditioning and an SMG, I only did it for a few games. I don't really mind what you all think. It's a game, get over it. If someone uses it, leave or use it back (Like I did)

          Re: where's the outrage over the damage glitch?

          That's bullsh*t that they are getting the same punishment as people who did the token glitch. This is cheating! It has an effect on gameplay, and an effect on other players. There should be a greater punishment for this, or people who did the token glitch should be set back. You can say "don't cheat, don't do it." But if given the chance, people will do wrong. Hence the reason for jails and prisons. But you don't send someone to prison for 5 years because they drank alcohol underage, and then send a different guy to prison for 5 years because they raped someone. The punishment has to fit the crime. It's a very simple concept to understand, and I'm surprised that the people who are responsible for bans don't understand that.

    Re: where's the outrage over the damage glitch?

    I ran into a group last night doing this glitch, and it's definitely a game-breaker!  One shot M14 kills (not headshots) were getting annoying.  Hopefully they get this patched sooner than later...

    the mk14 is already the most powerful AR in the game. this is ridiculous

      its a little rediculous that people got a 2 day ban plus 10,000 deaths and 1,000 losses for the token glitch... they should make this one much worse bc this is actually cheating ingame...  the token glitch had nothing to do with how many kills/deaths a person had but this does... and the penalty should be alot worse

        Re: where's the outrage over the damage glitch?

        I agree with this.  The token glitch didn't affect me at all so i felt indifferent about it, but every lobby i join somebody has damage on either the mk, pp90, or acr.  I'm thinking that everybody who uses this even if it's only once should receive some kind of ban.  On another note, i scared an eight prestige to death today by telling him he was going to get a 5000 day ban for using it.  it was pretty funny listening to him rage over it.  At one point i thought he was going to cry, but he left the lobby before I could distinctly tell.

    The community is more than mad about the damage glitch. We all know about it. The dev's have already acknowledged it and have said it'll be patched in the next update. Which we will see i suppose.. and they apparently are tracking those abusing it and will drop the hammer on those caught...

     

    And they better keep their word lol

    The Dev's said it will be fixed on the next patch...perhaps at the end of this month. I just hope they really do have a way of tracking the abusers as they have mentioned. A ban and reset should be perfect for them. Can't wait to read the numerous posts about how their cat, brother, or some hacker accidently performed the glitch for them.

    Re: where's the outrage over the damage glitch?

    I for one have given up on this game getting completely fixed.  Once one glitch is fixed another is found.  It still isn't as bad as MW2 was. 

     

    I just wish someone would come up with a game series that would be better than COD.

    The problem with that is I don't think the game developers actually know what it is about COD that people find so appealing so they keep monkeying around with the wrong stuff.

     

    I used to rage at the way we have become the beta testers for most console games these days.  Instead of the game companies paying for the game getting tested pre launch we have become the beta testers and we pay the game companies for the privaledge of testing their unfinished game.

     

    They got their money so they will support the game for a few months and then leave the remains to the hackers and glitchers and then they just move on to the next thing.

     

    It seems to be the new "American Way"
