Cheats.

I played CoD2 yesterday. The game type was search and destroy. For those that might not know there are two sides and two targets, one side tries to plant a bomb at either target and the other side try to stop them. If (or with me, when!) you are killed you go to 'spectate' where you see the game through the eyes of another player. I was killed and was watching the game through the eyes of this other player when he ran in to a building, went upstairs and all the walls dissapeared! There were just the odd window frame hovering in mid air and he could see anybody who came anywhere near his hiding place. I pointed this out to the other players through the ingame chat and he left soon after.
I can't understand cheats, I mean why bother playing if you have a differant set of rules to everybody else. I know CoD2 is waiting for a patch that should include an anti cheat, the sooner the better.

    I've been in a lot of games with cheaters. It just doesn't make the game fun. I'd play Halo 2 a lot on Live, and there were many exploits that were taken advantage of on multiple occasions. When you confront the people doing it, they start to generally whine or make rude remarks. They're usually 8-13 year old asshats anyway. =)

    It just kills the fun of the game.

    We've been waiting a long time for that patch, IW really alienated its playerbase that switched from COD:UO to COD2.

    Cheaters are what kills today’s Online gaming experience... Most people who log online to play games are fairly new to the online gaming world, and for the most part they are turned off by gamers who cheat... which makes them not want to play online any longer. I think cheating really needs to be jumped on by Dev's... for the most part they do a good job for a ton of games cheats are rampant and are never resolved....

    This could be a good article topic 

    Might be, but this case in particular sounds more like a map exploit than a cheat anyway.

    The problem with COD2, in particular, is that IW KNOWS about all this but refuses to release any type of patch that will help us out. Its been out for how long and PB hasn't been supported? Its been out for how long and they won't release map tools? Its been out for how long and levels are still the size of my garage?

    Exactly. The latest news I have about the patch is it's supposed to be released in mid April. It took the 'strike' by the online community to even get IW started on it. http://forums.ic-games.co.uk/showthread.php?t=3124
