Modern Warfare 3 beta already plagued by cheaters despite PlayStation exclusivity ActivisionJust a few hours in, the Modern Warfare 3 PS4 open beta has been flooded with cheaters. Modern Warfare 3 is in the middle of an open beta exclusive to PlayStation players. The beta covers plenty of ground, showing fans what comes next in the storied Call of Duty franchise. Plenty of new features, such as the aggravating Battle Rage, are in the beta. Conversely, plenty of returning features and maps are coming back, making MW3 look promising. However, one feature that hasn\u2019t been fun is cheaters. The latest wave of players has gotten access to the beta and has ruined the experience for many. Cheaters plaguing the Modern Warfare 3 open beta The first weekend of the MW3 beta began October 6 for players who preordered Modern Warfare 3, and opened up for players who didn\u2019t preorder on October 8. This initial beta is only available for PlayStation players, which makes it all the more puzzling that hackers are already a problem. Hours after the floodgates opened for non-preorder players, clips surfaced of cheaters ruining the experience for others. PS4 players with jailbroken consoles are the prime suspects. Players were quick to comment on this blatant cheating with the top comments reflecting on the bad rep PC players get, regarding cheating. \u201cAnd cod players blamed PC crossplay for cheats. PS was the issue all along\u201d responded one Twitter user. Another player commented in defense of PlayStation players \u201cNah for Warzone and ranked play it\u2019s only the pc players this is the first time I\u2019ve seen ps4 actually doing something.\u201d Regardless of which platform cheats the most, cheating in Call of Duty has been an issue for quite some time. In an attempt to negate it, Activision launched its own anti-cheat, Ricochet, last year. However, it seems like the system isn\u2019t perfect as seen above. Hackers have been a pesky problem for CoD\u2019s developers over the past few years, and it seems as if these deviants aren\u2019t letting up any time soon. Even if they have to modify a console to do it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
