The impact of gamers losing confidence in PSN could be quite severe for Sony, especially if it hopes to make a profit on the service this year.1)Boot your PS3 normally (without JailBreak)Ģ)Delete the MW2 patch from your 'Game Data' folder on your PS3ģ)Boot up MW2 from the disc (not a backup, the actual disc) Not only have the hacks opened the door for clever pirates, they're also threatening the integrity of the PS3's online multiplayer. This has got to be quite a blow, not just to Infinity Ward, but to Sony as well. He also noted that this would only affect "legacy games" like Call of Duty 4 or Modern Warfare 2, and that future titles would employ security measures above and beyond the platform security. Bowling said that while Infinity Ward wasn't able to manually adjust or restore hacked stats at this time, it was exploring every possible avenue to help anyone affected. Infinity Ward isn't just washing its hands of the problem though.
Bowling advised that people play in private matches with people that they knew until Sony re-secured the platform. This meant that until Sony fixed the security problem, the hacking would continue. Unfortunately, he said there was very little that Infinity Ward could do, as the problem was not with the game, but with the platform itself. Writing on the Infinity Ward forums, creative strategist and former community manager Robert Bowling acknowledged that there was a problem with hacked stats on the PS3. Call of Duty developer, Infinity Ward, says that it is feeling the effects of the hacks especially keenly, thanks to the popularity of the CoD series, and the experience has shown it that it can't rely just on platform security in the future. The PS3 security problems aren't just Sony's headache developers and publishers suffering, too. Call of Duty 4 and Modern Warfare 2 are getting hacked to high heaven, and Infinity Ward says there's not a lot it can do about it.
