I played MW2 online last night without a hitch, went to have a blast today and a message pops up saying cheat detected.

I had a search which led me to check my VAC status and i have been banned from "some games" i.e. MW2.

I have never cheated online and this really takes the biscuit, is there any way to sort this out?

Thanks

Just to clarify,

I installed MW2 on release day, i not done anything to the game other than install it and play.

No mods, hacks, cheats etc, SP or MP.

The only thing i had was strict NAT, i then used UPNP or something on my router and it the NAT was open.

That was yesterday, today...no play.

:confused::(:rolleyes:
 
Personally i do not think it is valves fault if accounts get hacked due to user error, but i do think it is very heavy handed for a first offence.

I dont know where this leaves me as i doubt my account was hacked, unless ghosts dabble in a bit of MW2.
 
So, without going through this whole thread, has the OP now admitted to cheating?

No, i suggest you read the thread otherwise why be on a forum and reply?

Other people have mentioned there bans and circumstances, i am saying getting your account hacked like some is not valves responsibility, but i do think a ban is harsh.
 
I'm not able to check my steam or emails at work, but hopefully i am one of the lucky 12,000. :rolleyes:

I am going to see if my brother has LFD2, if not i'll see if anyone wants to do swapsies on here. :)
