Don't expect a fix on the 'Weapon Prof" glitch anytime soon.

this is what I liked about treyarch, they fixed somehting withing what? 24 hours of it being found. It took them, 3 weeks to do anything about the Prestige Token glitch, and last I checked you can sitll do it.
I don't see this "New" glitch being fixed until June.
Well, the mutiplayer was fun enough, but getting 1 shot by Type 95, Mk14, and Mp7s with "Damage" is dumb.
Not like a rapid Fire SMG was a bit too much in the first place.
Trololol I can take out 8 people with a whole clip because it takes 2 bullets to kill this guy.
fix your game before you release it.
worst thing is that its on youtube. Anyone can do it now >.>
Don't take it out on IW, the prestige token glitch has already been fixed just the update that fixes it hasn't gone live. Blame either MS/Sony or Activision, also I am pretty sure I read the proficiency glitch was fixed in the same patch I am talking about.

nope, its their fault, they even said so that the reasons they had problems getting **** out last time was because they had to wait on MS/sony but now they say they dont have to wait so the blame rests with them.
It really is getting annoying to deal with these OHKO MK14s.
You know, I was just sitting here looking at a video of some guys using this glitch. I got to thinking about something ...
So, yeah, all these people that used, for example, the token glitch to boost themselves, so they all get reset to 1 kill and 21,000 deaths or something. Supposedly.
What about where my performance is diminished because of this damage proficiency glitch? Do I get all the deaths by these cheaters removed from my stats?
No.
So at the end of the day, this is what's going on with COD. People cheat and make life miserable for several weeks, at best, or a couple of months. They get a slap on the hand with resets or whatever other "punishment." Actually, they aren't punished. They open new accounts.
I think the biggest problem COD has right now is that it is too much of a draw for immature kids - and adults that haven't grown up.
Yea i just saw this for the 1st time today a mk14 and 50 cal both with the damage
Yup mk14 is a solid 1 shot kill now... dumb!
They still haven't even banned everyone for the token glitch I'd say maybe 10% if that because half my friends did it and nothing happened. Honestly the damage glitch wont be 100% fixed until 2013 if that.
IW doesn't care about their game. They're too busy trying to shove "premium" Elite down our throats..
Shows what you know IW has nothing to do with Elite! Beach Head studio runs elite!
This glitch is being patched in the next update and they are tracking and banning any offenders... beware.
The soloution to the problem is play HC until the patch is released then the damage proficiency does make a difference and if people are using it there's no killcam so you wont notice.
You do realize that they can not just make a patch and then throw it up right away. There is a long process of where it has to be tested and then approved by MS bevfore it goes live as a title update.
You must have a short memory. Treyarch is held to the exact same certification process for patches that every single other developer is. The only things which were fixed quickly were those which were done with hotfixes, and IW has done the same with MW 3. It took months for Treyarch to fix the party and spawn issues B.O. had.
And Activision has said people who abuse this glitch will be punished. My only worry is the Overkill glitch which I did unwittingly use, (I made my Overkill class long before I even knew about the glitch), will get me in trouble.

That unlock all thing is just gonna make trouble for the devs, you just know someone will find away to pass this on to MP.
V good point sir.
gallp your quite a knowledgeable person when it comes to this sort of thing any idea what this means?
Appreciate the kind comment however there are far wiser than your humble servant. Read your post earlier and it was the first time this gamer has seen this error.
Suggest you lodge service request with Activision...they do answer within a week at the mo. Would also lodge service request with xbl....while it looks like a game specific error...ie not xbl issue....they oft times shed light and point you towards a fix.
If you can tease Maccabi out on the forums he may shed light as he is one of the most cluey on all matters tech..just ensure thread stays near top of list over night so he can read easily. Bumpity bump.....good luck sir;)
I'm in Maccabi's clan [EU4M] and play with him on a regular basis and he's away for a week or 2, but I might try the live chat later, nice one.
24 hours? Really? Treyarch has to go through the same MS certification process that IW has too and if you dig deep enough I'm sure you can find plenty of impatient kids on 3archs forum complaining about "how long it takes to fix stuff."
Regarding your problem...as others have said its been fixed and being tracked.
"PSA: The "damage" proficiency exploit is already fixed in the next patch. We're now tracking anyone abusing it and will ban offenders."

Can't ban people that are using the menus to their advantage smart guy, this isn't a jtag situation its a development S hit storm they could have avoided by not putting the game out before it was even close to being ready
Dude...
It's an obscure glitch that never would have come into notice or problem if it weren't for stupid websites that try to find these things or kids gaining fake fame with Youtube how-to's
Yes you can ban people who are using menu's to their advantage, it's quite clearly cheating, that's like saying boosting isn't cheating because it's using friends to your advantage.
I would bet anything that QA team's jobs are getting harder and harder, as games become more complex, people are intent as ever to cheat, and the prevalence of sharing methods such as those stupid sites and youtube.
tl;dr gaming community is going to the crapper
Amen to that!
dustyleet, you're not too bright are you? Just because you haven't jtagged your Xbox doesn't mean you can't get banned. Have you actually looked at their banning policy and what they consider cheating? You can absolutely ban people who are exploiting glitches. Damn I'm sick of retards who think they know it all.
they cant ban, just reset some stats. Microsoft may be able to ban.
Down to the small print though, microsoft can ban any1 for no reason, says so in the contract we all signed when we made our XBOX love accounts.

According to Microsoft, game developers CAN ban when violations are game-specific.

Last but not least, you're absolutely right JetEye - these jackazzes are total imbeciles.
I really cannot fathom why it is that Activision cannot have someone set the record straight with the idiots and tell them to stop posting total assinine nonsense or they will be banned from these forums.
The fact that they don't however, makes me believe that stupidity, hacking, and cheating in general is too small of a problem to put large resources into stopping it.
Don't get me wrong, they will ban these retards. It just takes time.
But to believe that quality does not matter in a product or service would be a huge mistake.
Anyway, yes, I just posted a flurry of responses. A few of them were to people that actually have intelligence and I empathize with the fact they feel cheated of their hard earned money by cheaters.
Most, though, demonstrate an enormous frustration with the fact that someone can't tell these idiots to STFU. I fully get having multiple viewpoints. But there is a line, a HUGE line between total stupidity and a rational discussion. This "getonmylevel" moron is one of the absolute DUMBEST posters in these forums I have seen in quite a while.
Get on this level: up yours you loser twerp.
