This is a common theme here.
I suggest we send a few million complaints to the Better Business Bureau. Several of us already have. It WILL make a difference, and the more the merrier. Make a concise level headed complaint about the game, Activision, Steam and the rest of the underhanded villainy involved in the development and distribution of this hack infested POS. Only takes a minute to tell your side of it. The PC version was just a pocket liner for these unresponsive, unsupportive jerks. It was a planned and executed rip off from the start. All the lies and promises to get us to buy the game were nothing more than a scam. - https://www.bbb.org/consumer-complaints/file-a-complaint/get-started

A very good suggestion indeed!
Isnt there anyone out there who can start an online petition like the one against ACTA for this concern?

I'm not familiar with the ACTA case you speak of... or even what ACTA "stands" for. Please elaborate, or just post a link.

Good post but it's not just the developers that need to do something it's Valve also as they are the ones who provide the anti cheat system, and it's there system that is failing and allowing people to cheat.
If it was not for the fact that I don't want to ruin peoples games, I could quite easily go and buy a cheat and use it and then if the account I use it on get's banned then I would come back here and, tell people how long it took but I will not spoil the game for other people by using a cheat and also because I don't want/need to lower myself to there level.
Maybe one day they will go back to Punkbuster and if they do the only thing we will have to deal, with is every now and then being kicked out of the game to update pb but that is something I will deal, with and gladly accept if it means I get a cheat free game.

I'm also fycking sick to death of this sh!t, 7/10 games have got hackers. It's a joke tonight I joined 8 games in a row with aimbots in and just had to leave, 2 was ground war 4 was domination and 2 was kill confirmed. It's got to a point now that I can't actually play the game anymore, how can this even be legal? How can a company sell you something that is clearly broken and say they can't refund it?

you shouldn't have bought it then. I'm not a cheater myself and i don't see as many of them as you do. I play drop zone most of the time and gotta say there's not that many cheaters playing this game mode so give it a try

Not every gamer know's about these forums and only actually searches for them once they have a issue, now until then they have no idea about if there are cheaters etc unless they have played one of the previous Call Of Duty games since MW2.
Not to mention for some people this is there 1st Call Of Duty game on the PC as they may have switched from a console, or they may have only just been allowed to play it because there parent's wouldn't let them play it till they were a certain age because of the swearing that occurs etc.
I am lucky because where I live I can play any game type and come up against next to no cheaters.

I disagree (mostly) about it being Valve's fault. VAC clearly states how it works and how VAC runs. It only works on dedicated servers for which the VAC option is enabled.
So here's how I see the conversation between Lack-O-Vision & Valve going down:
Lack-O-Vision: Hey Valve... we're gonna use Steam again as our distro and Piracy prevention method.
Valve: Are you still using P2P like MW2?
Lack-O-Vision: Yep.
Valve: Ummm... what about your anti-cheat system? You know VAC doesn't work on P2P connections.
Lack-O-Vision: Meh. Whatever.... we'll deal with it on a case-by-case basis if needed.
Valve: Any chance we could get that in writing?
Lack-O-Vision: ................... I'm sure it's somewhere in the agreement paperwork.
Valve: (barely audible) **sigh**
Lack-O-Vision: Thanks buddy! L8rs!

Sorry, but you're wrong: there is no activating, or deactivating vac on dedicated server.
"IF" vac is doing anything i wouldn't know, as there are no SERVER LOG!

That information was pulled from Valve and is almost a direct quote. I've posted the direct quote in the past on this forum. It specifically stated 'Dedicated Servers for which the VAC option was enabled'. There was nothing stated about VAC working over P2P. In fact, all the info I have found on the Steam site only refers to Public and Private Servers - nothing about a P2P system.
So, like I said before, if you think VAC is running on your P2P match... think again, because it isn't. If it is running on anything, it would be the Dedicated Unranked Servers (though I doubt it's existance on these servers too).

However, I know folks who were banned in MW2, or know of them. So it must work with P2P.

And I don't doubt that while SOME were hacking at least 50% weren't.
I've been banned from over a dozen servers throughout CoD and not once have I EVER hacked.
Your complaining about something that you only are imagining to be as big of a problem as you think it is. Chances are most players are just better than you.

Instant Win?
Wonder if that is what I am thinking in that the cheater uses a cheat and presses a button that ends the game instantly.
Wonder though if it's just that the cheater changes there aimbot and just get massive amounts of kills instantly.

I've had a couple of games that just suddenly ended and I took a loss for them. I thought it odd, becuae usually if a game crashes, so to speak, you don't take a loss. amazing that there could be someone with nothing better to do.

I'm glad I'm not the only one pissed off. 9 out of 10 games i joint have cheaters. It has gotten to the point where it's no longer playable. There have been cheaters in every online multiplayer game ever made and numerous ways have been develpoed to counter them. how on earth did they not take this into account when they developed this product. I don't expect 100% elimination of the problem but this is just rediculous. Did they even try? Will they even bother to listen to their consumers? Do they even care? Unfortunatly, I think I know the answer to all that. NO. So, will I be spending my money on the next Activision/InfinityWard game? NO. This isn't the first time they have let me down and I feel this is the only power I have left at my disposal as a consumer.

I had the same problem the last 2 days. I reported at least 22 players in 2 days through steam. But the cheaters didnt care. some of them just laughed and sayd that steam wouldnt even do something about it. I already sent an email to the steam support but I think they really dont care cause it is not really their problem it is IW´s problem and they dont give a s***

Two words. Class Action.
I have spent alot of money on this garbage. All they want is for every boy to cheat, get banned and buy the liscense again. Its not fair that I cant compete because their game is flawed.
I bet its the game developers leaking the cheats so they can get more wealthy. I say stand as one.
