Wins and losses since last update
-
Like (0)
I've only played two games since the update and both games my team won but I've taken a loss AND a win for both games for two wins and two losses.
I can get passed taking a loss for the host disconecting but taking a loss because my team won? This is insanely annoying.
Elite help? Ghandi? Someone on staff? Why is this happening? I'm not even going to bother to play if I'm going to take a loss for every win now, it's not fair =/
This is god damned annoying. It doesn't happen in Infected, but it's happening in CTF. I just took another loss for winning.
This is annoying and I'm not getting a reply from anyone that I've contacted.
I'm taking losses for games where my team won WITHOUT the host ever migrating/disconecting. I'm used to host disconects, I understand that. I haven't tried any other core playlist but every time I play CTF, if I win I take a loss AND a win. But if I were to play Infected and win I don't take a loss.
Other note: Played a few games of TDM with some friends and this did not happen. But when playing solo ctf it's happened to four games.
Hello Missing Snorlax,
What platform are you playing on? Where does it display the loss, in game, Elite, or both?
I'm on the 360. It only displays the loss in game.
Other notes: Just played a game of solo Sabotage and one of solo TDM. Both were wins and only wins.
Played a few rounds of TDM with some friends yesterday and everything was normal.
Played Infected and everything was normal.
This is only happening in CTF which happens to be my favorite game type.
Hi again Missing Snorlax,
Are you able to check your Elite profile to see what displays there?
Elite displays results normally. Wins are wins and losses are losses. The problem is only in game.
Update: Just played a game of CTF thinking that maybe it was just a weird glitch that day. But nope, won the game and took a win and loss for it.
This is pretty annoying.
This is not an issue we've seen in the past. I would recommend contacting Activision customer support via chat/phone so they can collect additional info and create a case for this issue. You can find contact options by logging into the support website with your ELITE credentials:
Could you please send us a private message with your Gamertag, as well?
I'm not an isolated incident. There's another user here experiencing this along with his friends. As of a few minutes ago I confirmed that all 360 CTF players are taking losses even if the game is a win. I asked a few other ctf players on my list, some of which are in the top 30 all time ctf and they say they're taking losses for wins as well.
By the way, a drastic drop in win/loss ratios among my CTF friends further confirms this.
On my elite account it tells me i have 728 games played for the month but i went i look the mw3 in game leaderboards for the month i have 752 games.
Thank you for pointing this out. Me and my fellow clan members have noticed the same problem for us on xbox 360 as well. We play a lot of CTF, and this has been an annoyance for sure! I hope this gets fixed soon. I assume that if/when it is fixed, we will have the false losses removed. Am I wrong?
We're not getting those losses removed lol Best that can happen is they fix the issue.
Bump.
Bump, I'd like to play ctf without taking losses for wins.
Another thing I noticed last night is that if you lose, it doesn't add a loss. If you win, it counts as a win AND a loss. It is only affecting people that win! Come on! Get it together people!
I stopped playing CTF which means that I pretty much stopped playing MW3 so I did not know that lol
I haven't received a response from Elite Help, Ghandi or BanCandy.
I'm starting to think that this is one of those things you're just going to have to live with lol I'm slowly moving into Team Defender.
bump
There are alot of ppl with same prob,have quit playing ctf moved to dom for that reason
That could explain why my rank hasn't dropped as much as I thought it would have by now lol
Btw, it's interesting to see some of the habitual spawn trappers on my list play other game modes.
The players on my list who spawn trap often and usually pull a 4 - 6 weekly KD and near perfect W/L are now pulling 2 KDs or lower and having a hard time keeping their ridiculous W/L up. It really does make me chuckle a bit lol
If there is a silver lining to this bullshit it's that I get to see how those spawn trapping clowns do outside of CTF.
If they claim to be spawn trappers and can't win other game modes, then they aren't true spawn trappers, just a team of scrubs who trap against other scrubs.
I'm sorry, but this is plain retarded.
Why hasn't this been fixed? It's happening in Sabotage now. I can't play my two favorite game modes because of this crap. I'd play other game modes if your spawn logic wasn't absolutely horrid.
CTF and Sabo may not have the best spawns but they're worlds better than that **** revenge spawn logic in TDM, KC, TDef, and every other playlist.

Just for overall knowledge its been happening to me too in SD had around 6.00 w/l early this week and now its a 3.94 and im pretty sure i've won at least 90% of the matches I've played.
I think I found the problem.
It only happens in game modes with rounds. I haven't tried SnD out of fear of being right which you just basically confirmed.
In CTF you take a loss and there is typically two rounds there too. I never got the chance to see what would happen if the game went into over time.
It happens in sabotage BUT only if the game goes into over time.
You mentioned SnD and three to five losses in your thread which could be losses for every round played.
Any demolition players out there?
Thought I'd chime in. Same thing happened to me today. Went on a win streak in CTF to only notice that my losses had gone up and my win/loss ratio and winning % declined.
happening to everyone

bump, been three weeks since I played CTF. I'd love to play again, I'm getting sick of the craptastic spawns in the other game modes and have stopped playing for the most part.
Having the same issue with wins counting as losses. I win a match, check the win/loss leaderboards and I have a win AND a loss. I am on the PS3. I have a very good win ratio and this bug is ruining it. FIX PLEASE?!

I am also getting multiple losses, was playing SnD yesterday (From a 10.67 WL to a 9.74). I think Snorlax's theory is right this occurs in game modes that contain rounds.
I hope someone can solve this issue.
Bump
Ghandi
Elite Help
This issue is annoying beyond all reason. KC, TDM and FFA just don't cut it because of the crap spawns.
Bump, latest patch did not address this issue.
A month and still nothing? Really?
This is a serious issue and needs to be addressed immediately. This has been going on for way too long. I have had this problem with search and destory and demolition for at least a month. It would be nice to have some sort of feedback about this issue.
I feel like this is happening in more game modes than those with rounds. I won my last round of Drop Zone last night- we beat them by 2000 points, but it says on Elite that itsa a LOSS.
At this point I really don't know if anybody that can help is listening/reading, but we ALL need to post this elsewhere to "ruffle the feathers" and shed more light on this problem. Start posting on Infinity ward's Facebook page, Activision support, or anywhere else people think is useful. If we don't, I feel like this will never change.
Ghandi has been telling me for almost a month now that the team is "looking into it", whatever that means.
Btw, regarding Dropzone I think Elite displays all community playlist games as losses but they don't actually count as losses in the barracks. Infected does the same thing on Elite.
Bump
Yeah my friend was playing Drop Zone and told me (via chat) he got 2 losses even though he won them.
Has anyone tried to delete their MW3 data and re-install it?
I'm having the exact same problem, it realy sucks, I've played all the gametypes n so far it's only happening to me in CTF...It is happening to everyone I know in CTF, meaning all the people in the top 1000 in that playlist...this needs to be fixed asap otherwise, mw3 is broken and getting taken back to gamestop for bf3..no more activision owned games if they let stuff like this pass n don't fix it
We apologize for the issue. There is a Hotfix that will be sent out tomorrow that should resolve the issue.
