Following the recent launch of Modern Warfare 2, players have discovered a bug that leads to wallhacks in the game. While it only affects one player, it works throughout the entire match, making it simple to grieve or kill a Modern Warfare 2 player no matter where they’re at.
While Infinity Ward has given no official statement on the issue, it is known that they are working on it, and fans can hopefully expect a fix soon. Players will only be able to ping the map once the bug has been patched. Here’s what it was doing, and when Modern Warfare 2 fans can expect it back.

While many have accused others in Modern Warfare 2 of wallhacking and cheating, this one didn’t come from an outside source. Instead, it came from within the game itself.
Going viral on Reddit thanks to user u/zFStatic, they noticed that you can place a ping marker on an enemy player during the death screen. If you do, it will last the entire match, so no matter where that opponent goes for the rest of the match, you can still follow them.

This bug explains a great many of the complaints about wallhacking that have already come up in Modern Warfare 2. While some players may have been cheating, others noticed that this was happening on consoles as well.
