Modern Warfare 2 pro shares a trick to evade hackers in Ranked Play

sportskeeda.com:

Ranked Play was introduced to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 in Season 2, which was initially well-received by fans. However, the mode was soon infiltrated by hackers who used third-party software to gain an unfair advantage, such as an ESP tool enabling them to see enemy players' locations through walls.

In addition, cheats such as aimbots completely ruined the competitive experience that Ranked Play was meant to provide.

Fortunately, a professional Call of Duty player, WaR Aroma, recently shared a helpful tip on his Twitter to avoid playing in lobbies with hackers. This guide will explore the process in more detail so that players can avoid these lobbies without facing any penalties.

Hackers can be a significant problem in Modern Warfare 2, and unfortunately, the anti-cheat for the game is not very effective at the moment. Malicious players are often able to bypass security measures and use cheats. Even when reported, they are often not punished.

This means that encountering a hacker in a Ranked Play lobby can not only result in a potential loss but can also ruin the overall experience for players. Also, if players encounter a hacker they recognize, it is impossible to back out of the lobby, as the game will penalize them for doing so.

Hence, the trick shared by WaR Aroma can be a helpful way to avoid playing in lobbies with hackers in Ranked Play without facing any penalties. Follow the steps below to execute the trick.

1) Wait until the lobby is populated with eight players.

2) When the match countdown starts, click on the 'Channels' button in the screen's top right corner (headphone icon).

3) Select 'Lobby,' then click on the 'Settings' button at the top of the screen (cog icon).

4) Click 'Leave Party,' then select 'Yes.'
