Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2’s multi component has been getting attention of late for all the wrong reasons. Seedy people with too much time on their hands have dug up numerous ways to abuse the game -- from infinite ammo to the XP system. But the MW2 crew are aware, and even better, plan to address some of these recent bugs with fixes.
At least, according to Robert Bowling they are. In a recent tweet, the community man shot out a list of bugs being squashed: “Update in ‘Test’ now: 1887s Balanced. Public ‘private’ match fix. Ammo fix. Prestige hack (PS3) fix. Texture hack on PC fix.”
We aren’t surprised that a shooter as popular as MW2 is being exploited, nor are we surprised that Infinity Ward seems dedicated to fixing them -- we’re just simply glad they’re willing to address issues to quickly. Keep it up.

Shame I'm too busy playing the Bad Company 2 beta right now, maybe I'll jump back into MW2 for a month or so between BC2 beta and MAG release, ie, while there's nothing better to play.
It's still there, numbnuts.
Jesus Christ you're thick:

I just read one of those yesterday. Like TheDreakHawk said, they're still there.
Please don't think I don't know or care that there are glitches, but Infinity Ward aren't just sitting on their hands so fair play to them for that.
And bummer about the 1887s. At least this'll give me a reason to prestige.
but jim said that the leaderboard exploit was exclusive to the PS3? god now we'll have to skip ANOTHER post where he tries to re-state his case and simultaneously sugar coat and slip us the same point of view .
@ jim sterling
looks like it's YOUR problem now JIM STERLING.
Now im positive Battlefield 2 will be a lot better
For all those in a tirade, I understand, but this dosn't even compare to Gears of War 2. Atleast matchmaking WORKS. I remember waiting 15-30 minutes for matches to start when GOW2 came out.
I'm just glad that IW is working on them faster than Epic did with Gears 2. That games still broken if you ask me.
I think the range is also a problem with it's brokenness.
Not every shotgun in history followed the "Wide spread-Low range" philosophy
The Infinite Ammo glitch and AIDS are apparently gone though. I didn't encounter a single match of those playing for hours last night. The 18 player FFA / Private Match one still exists though.
